New England opened -14.5 over Houston and that quickly went up to -16 or -17. It was the largest opening playoff spread since 1998. Largest spread ever in the playoffs was -18.
-
James Harden went 53-17a-16r on 14-26 shooting including 9-16 on 3s.
-
That second game was a straight up ass kicking. OSU's offense was abysmal. Title game should be fun though.
-
Michigan-FSU got fun all of a sudden.

For those who got the regular DVD, is this the same one that's sold on MLB.com? https://www.amazon.com/2016-World-Champions-Chicago-Cubs/dp/B01L1TX2I0/ref=sr_1_1?s=movies-tv&ie=UTF8&qid=1483155877&sr=1-1&keywords=cubs+world+series+dvd I got the 8 disc set as a gift but that doesn't appear to have the regular season highlights or the movie that aired on TV a couple weeks ago.

Before today, the Browns, Niners and Jaguars had combined to go 3-39 this year. They went 3-0 today.

Well our season is over. Carrot rolled up on getting sacked and appeared to either break his leg or ankle. Congrats on another Super Bowl appearance, New England.

His complete non reaction after the Miggy slam against LA will always stick with me. It looked like he either didn't understand what was going on or he was actually playing for the Dodgers. I know he probably was still stewing on giving up those two runs (nevermind that he came in bases loaded no outs so I don't blame him for that), but just show a little excitement. Instead he just sat there stone faced. he was probably afraid of what uptight baseball people would say if he acted happy after giving up the lead. everything about chapman as a player/teammate was fine while he was here. he's a bad person for other reasons. I agree, it would have been horrible for him to look like a good teammate. I'm not saying he wasn't a good teammate during his time here. All I was saying was that reaction stuck with me.

Raiders officially back in the playoffs for the first time since 2002!

"Time makes fools of us all" - The Kyle Schwarber Thread
soccer10k replied to Sammy Sofa's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
almost horsefeathering homered off kluber in g1 when we couldn't touch him And then laid off a couple sick sliders from Miller to draw a walk later in the game. -
Am I remembering correctly that even after they took the big lead, the Cubs STILL didn't get somebody up right away? And I want to say the next guy walked, and even during that whole at-bat they didn't have somebody get up. I apologize if my memory is spreading misinformation. It took at least a couple minutes for them to get somebody up in the pen. It should have been instantaneous though and it certainly wasn't.

Just make some sort of Cardinals DUI joke. -Higher number - Taveras's career batting average or his BAC (not an original but still one of my favorites) -You know the commercials where an office has a sign saying "X number of days since the last accident"? Do you think the Cardinals have one at Busch that says "X days since the last DUI"?
-
Well his prediction was right. He didn't go 7-9 or 8-8 this year.
-
Marc Gasol took 66 3-pointers the first 8 years he was in the league. He's taken 87 this year (shooting 43.7% also). He's going to make more 3s this year than he took his first 8 years.

It's hilarious how predictable it was that Arsenal would get stuck with either Bayern or Real. Last 7 years: 16-17: Bayern 15-16: Barcelona 14-15: Monaco 13-14: Bayern 12-13: Bayern 11-12: AC Milan (when they were still good) 10-11: Barcelona I know they usually finish second so they're more likely to get a tougher draw but this is just getting absurd. Even in the group stage they get screwed over. Last year they draw Bayern (2nd hardest team they could get) and the two years before they draw Dortmund (and in 2013-14 they got Napoli as well).

A lot of articles today about Tottenham being unenthusiastic about clinching a spot in the Europa knockout. Isn't that their competition de rigueuer? They should be happy to have a way back to the UCL because it isn't hapening from the EPL. They always end up in the Europa but that doesn't mean they like it. It really hampers teams because they have to play on Thursday's and then always have short turnarounds to Sunday games. Last year was the first in the last four that they performed better after Europa league games than without having played a Europa game (and even then, the game was less than the previous years. 2015-16: 2 points per game after Europa games, 1.79 rest 2014-15: 1.44 after, 1.75 rest 2013-14: 1.33 after, 2.04 rest 2012-13: 1.6 after, 2.00 rest So that's a combined 1.58 ppg (pace of 60 for a full season) and 1.89 rest (pace of 72). 60 points gets you 7th while 72 can get you 4th. They're only 3 back of 4th so far. Kane is back and Alderweireld is coming back (those two going out coincided with them being unable to win games as they had 5 wins and 2 draws in their first 7 before Alderweireld went out). They beat City, played well at Chelsea and only lost 2-1 and played well at Arsenal. I think they've got a better shot of finishing 4th than winning 4 2-leg knockout ties and a final in the Europa.

Cardinals welcome gift basket: http://buildabasket.giftbasketexpert.netdna-cdn.com/media/catalog/product/cache/5/small_image/220x/9df78eab33525d08d6e5fb8d27136e95/c/o/cocktail_gift_basket_complete_open_bar_2010062298.jpg

Carr's broken pinky really killed the Raiders's chances in this game. With how he played, it shouldn't have been as close as it was. That being said, throwing a fade route into the end zone on third and one at the end of that game was all kinds of stupid. You have a QB with no accuracy and you're calling a route which requires pinpoint accuracy? Just run the damn ball, get the 1st down and then try the fade if you want to.

After Week 1 this year the Niners (currently 1-11) had a better record than the Cowboys (11-1).
-
PSG choking away the group today at home. Also, nice no show by Besiktas. A win and they move on and instead, they're getting hammered by Dynamo Kiev and have 2 red cards.
-
What you'd actually get: Bama vs. FSU/Western Michigan Clemson vs. USC Ohio State vs. Oklahoma Washington vs. Penn St. Five conference champs + plus next best 2 at larges (or 3 if they don't guarantee the top Group of 5 team a place) with a max of 2 per conference. And it would be equal parts hilarious and ridiculous that 9-3 Louisville gets left out for 9-3 Florida State despite beating them by 43 (ditto for Michigan/Penn State). And I'm not disagreeing, your top-8 would be fun.
-
So should be Bama vs. Washington and OSU vs. Clemson.
-
The way they were going, I didn't think either of these games would be worth watching in the 4th quarter. As it turned out, they both are.
