The vote was 22-10, so it failed by 2 votes.
Among the teams that voted with Philly, are Baltimore, NE, Detroit, and NY (AFC).
AND SPEAKING OF THE BILLS....
Apparently they were one of the teams who were pushing the hardest to ban the Push. And they may be most responsible for it staying, because all 3 AFC East teams voted against the ban.

Chris Berman just signed an extension to his contract to become ESPN's first 50 year employee.
Oh, I hate him so...

I blame every one of you with kids for this. None are innocent.

I'm no expert and we'll know the answer shortly but apparently the descent is very quick compared to the climb, like under a week. I don't know how long it takes to re-adjust or if Darby will need time to relax/knock off the ring rust but I wouldn't be shocked if he's back in a month if they need him for something storyline related unless he gets an injury on the way down.
The descent is still extremely dangerous. More than half of the deaths occur on the way down.
Let him get back to Base Camp 1, then start fantasy booking him to cost Mox the title in Texas.

Hard Knocks comes to WNY.
The Bills will be the pre-season team featured this season.

Anna Jay. Harley is her quirky best friend that both guys treat as if she's unattractive.
Will saves her from Hungee who's trying to explain the blockchain while a Morgan Wallen song plays at an inexplicably high volume.
Hangman is too busy outside yelling at Swerve who beat him in flag football earlier that day. This writes itself.

Official vote comes later today, but Russini says the NFL is about to ban the Tush Push.

Cincinnati's first round pick Shemar Stewart is holding out because his reps are disagreeing with language in the contract.
So, it should be noted, the Bengals won't give the sack leader a contract. Nor will they give one to his replacement.

Oh the heads that turn, make my back burn... And those heads that turn, make my back, make my back burn....
Last week, a Beach Bash! This week... Time for Double or Nothing! Wait, does that mean two beach bashes or none?
The sparkle in your eyes... Keeps me alive. And the sparkle in your eyes... Keeps me alive, keeps me alive!
Of course, lots of stuff happened last week, not the least of which was the power of friendship helping Jon Moxley retain his prize.
(Sierra... Hotel... You know the rest.)
And the world, And the world turns around... The world, and the world, yeah, the world drags me down...
This week... before the PPV... a confrontation!
(Sorry, but this really looks like the poster for a rom-com movie.)
(This came up on Spotify the other day and this thread title just stayed in my brain for every second since.)
Enjoy your Memorial Day!

The Athletic today has a story that confirms that Jordan Hudson was the reason the UNC Hard Knocks was killed (amongst other issues)
https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/20/sports/bill-belichick-age-girlfriend-jordon-hudson.html
Via this same story, she let it slip that she and Belichick are now engaged.
I guarantee you the words "we're moving the timeline up" were texted by her.

So glad they had an AEW flag up there, it would have been dumb not to bring one. Doubt a WWF/E banner has ever been there!
Now I want to know if any other pro wrestlers have also done this. Surely someone has? Hell, Darby out Jeff Hardy'd Jeff Hardy.

It's probably being discussed in the Video Game thread, but the video game Fortnite has an AI-controlled Darth Vader voice now. It's not going well.
Long story short it's varied between telling people to kill their families and themselves and asked ...*checks notes*... If other players think Chun Li's ass is sexy.
Seeing as how this is exactly what they went on strike for...

We are young, heartache to heartache, we stand... No promises, no demands... Love is a battlefield...
It's a busy time in WWE land! Summer's about to start and we're beginning the push to Money in the Bank! We've got two qualfiers this week:
Why yes, that IS Charlotte Flair in the middle. What do you mean you can't recognize her anymore?
We are strong, no one can tell us we're wrong. Searching our hearts for so long... Both of us knowing, love is a battlefield...
Hey, this week we have TWO (count em!) TWO big shows! Saturday has a Main Event~!
I'll bet you Logan Paul is gonna cut a promo where he insults the local sports team too! Though I am curious to see how they'll continue to build to Sami-Jey, which looks like the title match for SummerSlam.
You're making me go, then making me stay. Why do you hurt me so bad? It would help me to know, do I stand in your way? Or am I the best thing you've had?
And then... forget that All Elite garbage with their "good wrestling and storylines"! Who needs that when you've got NXT! AND TNA!
Tony D'Angelo really needs to get called up or let go because he's been in NXT forever and well... it's not like he's getting better down there.
(It's fun to look back and see a New York that just doesn't exist anymore. Also one of the best small venue concerts I ever saw was Pat and Neil Giraldo at BB Kings. She rules.)
Enjoy the week!

Not sure if this is accurate, but Marchand is apparently the first player in NHL history to win 5 winner take all games against the same franchise.

Hell yeah, Thomas being told to gfh by Jesus. Judas trying to commit suicide and having his entrails eaten by birds when it fails. Gibson is going to have an erection the whole time he's filming.

So the commissioner announced that the lifetime ban list only last for the person in question's actual lifetime. This means that Shoeless Joe, Pete Rose and 16 other are unbanned and HOF eligible
Look at the HOF thread.

Always been possible, just required a trade or free agency with a guy changing leagues.
That's kind of like how Mark McGwire led the Majors in HR's in 1997 but did not lead either league.

Is the Berman hate from the Deadspin article, where he called the woman, "Hey, Leather?" I'm asking because I always thought it was strange that people were offended by that when there was no indication that the woman was offended by it. I have a pretty wild conversation topic that I have brought up with women that would get a pretty terrible reaction if I were famous and someone overheard it, but I've never had a woman get offended when I bring it up. It's a completely ridiculous premise that is overtly sexual, and also begs for follow-up questions. The game is that she wants to prove me wrong, but that can only be done by consenting to a sexual experience. It turns into banter that is her asking questions that would prove my claim wrong, and me trying to say the exact thing that would counter her counter. I've had more men offended on behalf of women, but have never found women who have been offended by the conversation (I mean, I guess I get it, but I wasn't talking to them anyway.). Not only that, nearby women have overheard the conversation and decided to join in. It's not a conversation I'd have at work, at church, or a bunch of other places where it would be deemed inappropriate. But at a bar, it has at the very least worked at starting a silly conversation 100% of the time. A lot of these interactions involve the interplay between two people and building a rapport so that you can hopefully take things to the next level. I don't know if we should judge people outside of that rapport.
I've hated him for years and years before that. There's no one person more responsible for the "I'M THE STAR, NOT THE SPORTS" attitude of most people on sports TV than Christopher J. Berman. The catchphrases, the forced jokes, the attitude... all at the expense of the athletes he's supposed to be covering. He's a terrible announcer who people found charming because a relatively young person was telling them about sports and not the boring asshole who's on the local news.
He is also notoriously difficult to work with. Diva attitude and behavior. Screaming at PA's and interns if everything isn't exactly how he wants. I have first hand accounts of what a miserable prick he is.
But hey, he's said Rhhhhaaaiiiaaderrrrrrrhssssss since 1984, and makes the executives laugh, so he got a huge contract and pushed others out.
The "leather" story for me was just confirmation of what I'd already felt and later actually knew.

I think it's safe to say now that Oklahoma City won the Paul George trade.
