  1. [tweet] [/tweet] I mean, this is a little soft, sure, but you're on a yellow card already. Got to be smarter than that.
  2. Do you not have CBS Sports Network? Unfortunately not.
  3. Alright I’m out. The stream is awful, I’m not going to watch the Spanish language station and college basketball is on. Those of you streaming tell me if it gets any better.
  4. Trying to stream through CBS Sports Network and it’s awful too. Won’t go a minute without getting the spinning circle.
  5. And the last two World Cups they did qualify for they had 1 total win in 6 games. Also, the dream of both Italy and Portugal missing the 2022 World Cup is alive! you'd rather watch north macedonia? Anyway, in between they won euros. Wonder if that's happened before. Same as US . . . Than Portugal? Yes. Never liked them much and glad there’s a chance both them and Italy miss out.

  7. I was going to replay differently but then I realized I missed the “if they beat Panama” part the first time I read this. Costa Rica’s been playing well but it’s pretty likely they don’t beat both Canada (who still has something to play for) and the US (who, in your scenario, would also still have something to play for). I mean, anything is possible. We didn’t expect to lose to T&T four years ago either. But I’m not going to worry about that until Costa Rica beats Canada and El Salvador and we lose to Mexico.
  8. Hmm … that’s a tough one. Though considering the Ricketts don’t seem to give a shit about the Cubs being good, might as well take Chelsea down with them.
  9. I saw his right foot touch the center court line before he fell down. That's why I thought it was a violation. The lack of a whistle actually ended up helping TCU though since the clock ran out before the ball was dunked. Had the call been made Arizona has the ball side out with a chance for one last shot. Yeah, one or the other should have been called. Of course, TCU still had a timeout that they should have called once the guy got trapped in the corner. And it didn’t end up mattering, but the clock briefly stopped at 2.2 seconds also. Would have been interesting had he got the dunk (or another shot) off with a couple tenths left.
  10. When exactly is the backcourt violation called? You don't usually see it when a guy is falling down which is why I ask. He clearly didn't have control of the ball when he went into the backcourt so were the refs right in allowing play to continue then since Arizona picked up the ball? Or do they just say he touched the ball in the backcourt therefore it's a violation?
  11. I know it's the end of the game but if that same play happened with 10 minutes left in the game, the refs call a foul. Good thing TCU didn't lose because of that.
  12. This round has been really good so far. Not many bad games.
  13. The whole SEC really. No 2 Kentucky lost first round No 2 Auburn lost second round No 3 Tennessee lost second round No 6 Alabama lost first round No 6 LSU lost first round No 4 Arkansas struggled to beat the 12 and 13 seeds. Big ten is right behind them. This is a Sunday massacre if Purdue can’t win. Rutgers loses in First Four Indiana gets blown out in the first round Iowa loses to a 12 seed in the first round Michigan State loses in second round Illinois loses in second round Ohio State loses in second round Wisconsin loses in second round A 17-14 Michigan team and possibly Purdue have to carry the torch for the conference True. Big 10 at least had some teams play to seed though in Indiana, MSU and OSU. Plus Illinois arguably did also and Rutgers is a First Four team. The SEC would be projected for 12 wins playing to seed and even if Arkansas wins the title they’ll only be at 8. But yeah, not a great tourney for the Big 10 either. Meanwhile the ACC got trashed all year and has been great in the tourney.

  15. I was thinking there were a good amount of upsets in this tournament, and while it's not like it's all chalk, it's not even as crazy (so far) as last year. We had a 15-seed in the -Sweet 16 last year (completely blanked on this and was thinking FGCU was the only one to do it). We had a region with a 2-8-11-12 Sweet 16 and another with a 1-5-6-7 Sweet 16. We had teams seeded 6, 11 and 12 in the Elite 8.
  16. 3 yrs, $105M with an opt out after 2. Guess he didn’t get a long term deal he liked. Surprised he couldn’t get a long term deal with an opt out after 3.
  17. This might be my worst bracket ever. Almost every upset I picked didn't happen (hit ND and Mich, that's it) and there were a handful of favorites I picked to win that lost. 18-14 in the first round. But I went 11-1 on the 1-2-3 seeds so I went 7-13 on the other games.
  18. You did? I let out a huge sigh of relief when I heard the deal on the radio. It was going to take all the joy out of watching the Saints had he signed here. That aside, the Saints are better off with Jameis and keeping their picks instead of this debacle. Uh, you know Jameis has multiple sexual assault allegations right? Let's not act like he's some model citizen.
  19. Chelsea-Real Man City-Atletico Villarreal-Bayern Benfica-Liverpool First two winners square off in one semi and the bottom two winners in the other.
  20. Murray St-San Francisco is fun.
  21. So is Rodgers getting traded? What’s the point in bringing Rodgers back if you’re going to then trade his best WR?
  22. What’s to think about? They’ll let anyone buy a team. Doesn’t matter if they’re kind of racist or murder people. All that matters is if you have the money. His (correct) point is that with such a deeply influential muslim ownership and corporate sponsor contingent in the PL, public Islamophobes will not be welcomed by the other owners and could easily hurt their bid. I stand by what I said. Could it affect their bid? I suppose a little bit. But it’s not going to be a dealbreaker. If they don’t get it, it will be because they didn’t offer enough money.
  23. Today New England beat UNAM 3-0, which means that's 3 MLS teams with 3 goals each in the first legs of their quarterfinals. I can't wait to see how they blow this. Well one did blow it and a second tried to. Third team still to play.
