Also just saw ManU drew Barcelona in the Europa League which makes me very happy.

Not that I think Spurs should win that tie but I’m fine with it. Didn’t get PSG which is all I cared about. The other 6 runner ups besides PSG and Brugge are all fairly even. Also, LOL PSG. Guess they should have tried a bit more to maintain that goal differential. Good to see Benfica get rewarded for playing until the end and continuing to try to make up the GD by drawing easily the worst of the runner ups.

It’s hilarious that before the year the NFL cleared out the afternoon schedule with only one other game competing with what it thought was a marquee Rams-Bucs matchup and then both teams suck so they’re stuck only airing that game.

SMU-Houston ended 77-63 today in regulation. The over under was 66, which they passed with 5:34 left in the second quarter. It was 56-35 at halftime which means the second half was only 28-21. The two teams had 27 total drives in the game. 20 ended in TDs, 3 in interceptions, 1 on downs, 1 at the end of the game, 1 on a missed FG (end of the half and was attempted on 1st down) and 1 punt.

Bama’s out of the playoff hunt too. Good result for Tennessee because if Bama had won out, they and Georgia would have gotten in to the playoff over Tennessee.

How? Houston is the team that blew a 5-0 lead in Game 1. Also obligatory “the series isn’t over yet”. Game isn’t over yet either lol I mean, I get it. There’s no chance - and I mean NO CHANCE - a dominant Astros team would ever lose Games 6 and 7 at home in the World Series to a far inferior NL East team. So tonight really is it for the Phillies. -

That would have been a game tying hit and maybe a go ahead hit if the Astros weren’t holding the runner at first. -

PSG finishes runner up as Benfica wins 6-1 while PSG only won 2-1. Benfica goes through on the seventh tiebreaker, which is overall away goals in the group. Benfica scored 5 in the second half including in the 88th and 92nd minutes. All of the runner ups except Brugge are solid. Seems like usually there’s 2-4 weaker sides in there as runner up but it’s only 1 this year. Going to be a lot of good round of 16 ties. There’s a 50-50 chance Bayern draws either Liverpool or PSG since they can’t draw the three German clubs or Inter.

How the group progressed today. All four teams were in 2nd and 3rd at some point. Only Marseille was never in 1st and only Spurs were never in 4th (though this one was impossible due to tiebreakers). Just wild.
-
HOLY SHIT SPURS AT THE END AGAIN. Marseille pushing for the win, which would have moved them into 2nd. A draw and Marseille finishes third and goes to the Europa. Instead they’re 4th and out of Europe.
-
My reaction exactly. Well that plus for a second I fought “wait is it actually April 1?”
-
The Lakers are the only winless team left this year.
-
Because Spurs suck and couldn’t beat Sporting at home, their UCL group is completely up in the air. Nobody has advanced to the knockout stage and nobody has been eliminated. Additionally, each team could still win the group.

The entire QB class sucks outside of maybe Lawrence, and he isn't exactly Manning 2.0. I always love how when multiple QBs are picked high, the consensus (not necessarily here but in general) trends towards “I don’t see how any of these guys bust” when it’s very likely half of them turn out to be bad.
-
He’s the second highest paid player in the league, ~$47 mil this year, which good for him. He’s not tanking to be traded (he just sucks/is delusional of his talent). It’s hard (if not impossible) to move him for anything meaningful for the Lakers or any team thinking they can win with him with the salary cap trade match stuff at his number. He’s simply not a winning player, but yet he plays like and thinks he’s a top player in the league. He’s both stupid and delusional, imo, but also very rich because of it. So who’s to say. Yeah, he's just not good at this point. He was a good player through the year after KD left, when he first averaged a triple double. The year after that he was still good too, but it's been a steady decline since. His already not great 3-point shooting has gotten worse and his FT shooting has gone from the low 80's to the mid 60's. He's also not good defensively and loses his mind at the end of games on both ends of the floor.
-
I only sort of do. It’s not his fault he doesn’t fit in with the Lakers or that they traded for him. But at the same time he’s probably the only person who doesn’t realize he can’t shoot, especially from 3.

It really is a hilariously bad trade. I can’t remember if it was a one or the other situation or if they could have had both but they nearly traded for Buddy Hield that year too in addition to the DeRozan deal. Also I love how they fired Vogel for what happened last year but gave Rob Pelinka, who put together this shit sandwich of a team, an extension earlier this month. Spoiler alert: the coach wasn’t the issue, Rob. You are. GM Lebron is the problem, no way Pelinka did any of these moves without Lebron approving/wanting/pushing for them. I don't think LeBron has quite as much power/say as he did in the past. His first deal with the Lakers was guaranteed for 3 years I think with no opt outs. His recent extension is the same. When he was in Cleveland the second time he kept signing 2 year deals with an opt out after the first year. Plus his family is settled there. His oldest two kids are in HS and I'm sure he loves going to as many of their games as possible.That's not to say he's got very little to no say. Obviously he's got significant involvement. So we're probably both right to some extent. Pelinka just hasn't done anything to earn the benefit of the doubt either so I can't just give him a pass.

The Lakers chose him over keeping Caruso & signing DeRozan. It really is a hilariously bad trade. I can’t remember if it was a one or the other situation or if they could have had both but they nearly traded for Buddy Hield that year too in addition to the DeRozan deal. Also I love how they fired Vogel for what happened last year but gave Rob Pelinka, who put together this shit sandwich of a team, an extension earlier this month.

Westbrook was 0-11 from the field yesterday including 0-6 from 3.

Last full season. I don’t think it’s that big of a deal to ignore a weird pandemic shortened 60 game season especially when it was an outlier compared to the rest of his career. -
Would have to be undefeated from all other Power 5 conferences. Still have Clemson and Syracuse from the ACC, TCU in the Big 12, Michigan and Ohio State in the Big 10 and UCLA in the Pac 12. I would think all of those would be ranked in front of Bama if undefeated unless it was a scenario when FSU went undefeated but was ranked behind 1-loss Bama and Oregon because they kept squeaking out wins and people knew they weren’t that good.

Alternatively, 20 of the 32 teams are .500 or better. Three of the eight divisions potentially being won with a 9-8 or 8-9 record is horrible It’s also only been 6 games. Of course they’re all bunched up right now.
