  1. I think Colorado might be good.
  2. Something so cathartic about beating the crap out of Ghana.
  3. Team good, Bedard not great today. Top line was subpar overall.
  4. I believe in hockey they call them pucks. He sucks pucks.
  5. Bad second period really killed the Hawks tonight. Overall an even game, though.
  6. Unfortunate timing on this take.
  7. I think Boston was the better team tonight.
  8. Short turnaround for tonight's game in Boston against a Bruins team that was last seen rendering their record setting regular season meaningless in round 1 against Florida. I'm curious whether tonight will be a case of tired legs after a back to back or a fast start with a game of experience under their belt (or both!). Would be nice to see a Bedard goal tonight, but as longa s he keeps being the most dangerous guy on the ice offensively it's a fun watch.
  9. Blackhawks win their season opener for the first time since 2018.
  10. Should be a fun offensive battle between the top two passing QBs in the NFL this season.
  11. Oddly enough, I think the Vikings overall are a better team now than they were last year, they just haven't been near as lucky. With no Jefferson, it should be an easier assignment for the defense, but there is no such thing as an easy assignment for this defense. If Fields can throw for another 4 TDs, the Bears can win.
  12. This feels like one of those NFL years where there are like 4-5 really good teams and the rest of the league is just fodder. Going by team DVOA, the 49ers, Bills, Lions, Dolphins, Eagles, Chiefs and Ravens have effectively lapped the field on efficiency, with the Seahawks, Saints, Jaguars and Browns the next up, each being below average at one of the 3 facets of football (offense, defense, special teams). I currently have no idea who the bottom half of the playoffs will be in each league, and I don't think it matters thus far.
  13. Bedard is already the best Hawks player on the ice every time he touches it. He's already the focus of opposing defenses, so much that he's had several assists to wide open players due to the entire opposing team focusing on him. Unfortunately, other than Bedard and Taylor Hall, it's a bad roster and will probably finish bottom 5 in the NHL overall.
  14. Last night's win improves the Bears record cs Washington to 5-16 since the 85 Super Bowl winner. Feels like the Bears always lose to these clowns.
  15. DJ Moore has 531 receiving yards this season through 5 games. This is more than any Bears receiver had in all of 2022.
  16. That pass interference was so obvious Al Michaels was laughing about it.
  17. Is it too much to ask the Bears to drop 51 tonight?
  18. Meanwhile, in actual Blackhawks reality, the Connor Bedard effect is real:
  19. Part of me feels like I should rename this to the "Learn how probability works" thread and start a fresh thread for actual Blackhawks discussion.
  20. The Blackhawks played their first preseason game last night and got 2 goals, both assisted by Bedard. They may not be good this year, but they may be the Chicago team most worth watching this year.
  21. Sac fly to take the lead, now 2 outs. Plus, the Yankees offense should be coming up soon!
  22. This Yankees lineup has a total of 2 hitters on it. If I'm the 3b coach, everyone else has a "take until 2 strikes" call on while this pitcher is on the mound.
  23. The Dbacks were supposed to play in Chicago against the White Sox tonight, but they postponed it due to the makeup game today. It would have been hilarious, however, to have the Dbacks play at noon in NY, fly to Chicago, then play at 7pm.
  24. The DVOA formula has been updated to coincide with the move to a new site, so Aaron Schatz redid the historical DVOA numbers. Now the top 10 overall teams in history:
