    Really glad the refs decided to call 13 fouls in the first 6 minutes of the 2nd half. 7 minutes left and Florida in the double bonus, Houston in the bonus.

    That foul call is going to get the headlines and I don't think it should have been called. But Duke had already blown the lead at that point and certainly were on the right end of calls earlier in the game (one I remember in particular was the ball clearly went off Knueppel's foot and they gave the ball to Duke. The refs aren't the reason Duke lost. They made 1 FG in the last 10 minutes. That's the reason they lost.

    Come on. Got to turn that.

    3 runs scored without the ball leaving the infield is not great.

    Walking Heyward might be reason enough for a trip to the minors.

    When you consider the stakes, that it was a national semifinal, that's got to be a top-5 collapse ever right? -Up 14 with 8:17 left -Up 9 with 2:17 left -Up 6 with the ball with 1:14 left and they used almost the full 30 seconds before shooting so Houston got the ball with 47 seconds left.

    Suck it, Duke. Houston outscored them 25-8 over the last 8:17 of the game. Can't believe they came back. Was also 15-3 over the last 3 minutes after Flagg hit a 3 to push it to 9.

    Ovechkin with 2 tonight to tie Gretzky and he got there in one fewer game, which is crazy that it was so close. Next game is Sunday against the Islanders.

    How does it make sense to send Shota back out, throw five pitches to one hitter, gets him out and then you take him out? You left him in to face a righty so it’s not like you wanted the lefty-lefty matchup. The 9 hitter is coming up so it’s not a 4th time through the order thing. Not a big deal but I don’t get it.

    Boy do I relate to some of those things and 100% if I had the money those guys do, I’d keep doing it too.

    Jokic with 61-11-10 tonight in double OT. Steph went for 52 including 12-20 on 3. He was 8-10 from 3 in the first half and it's a game like that where you wish he was more of a gunner to see how many he could hit in a game. He could have broken Klay's mark of 14 in a game if he really wanted to.

    At this rate he’ll be at the right price point for Ricketts.

    The tournament has been fine. It’s definitely not the best but I feel comfortable saying it’s not the worst tourney. I don’t particularly care that it’s all 1 seeds in the FF. If this starts becoming more routine, then sure. But just last year a 4 and an 11 made the FF, and 8 double digit seeds won first round games. And 2023 we had a FF with teams seeded 4, 5, 5 and 9, a 15 seed made the S16 and a 16 seed won a game. Maybe this year is a sign of things to come but it might also just be a blip. Need to give it a couple more years to find out.

    Was 14-1 before the tournament that all four 1 seeds would be in the FF.

    A live look at our bullpen:

    That he was actually playing on the Cubs? Maybe doing his best Rizzo impression?
  18. soccer10k
    Great play by Dansby.
  19. soccer10k
    This has not been an enjoyable inning.
  20. soccer10k
    Last time we had a pretty much chalk EE (2019) we had a pretty awesome EE round and FF. Let's have that again then.

    Auburn looks terrible. So many careless turnovers and sloppy plays. EDIT: This post appears to be aging poorly.
  22. soccer10k
    LOL. Suarez again.
  23. soccer10k
    The good: the Cubs scored a run! The bad: they had 2nd and 3rd with no out and couldn't score.
  24. soccer10k
    Yeah, that’s a situation where you have to know beforehand that one of the fastest guys in the league is on first and just not even entertain going to second under almost any circumstance.

    White Sox about to be over .500 for the first time since Opening Day 2023.
