  1. And most importantly, no more David Ross. F that guy. /GR Cubs
  2. No longer works. Must have expired at midnight eastern.
  3. I was hoping the KC kicker would win the game with a FG in OT so we could see if he would actually get named the MVP. In that scenario he would have been 5-5, hit a game tying FG in regulation, a game winning FG in overtime plus the longest ever kick in a Super Bowl. They probably still give it to Mahomes but a kicker going 5-5 and being responsible for 16 of the 22 points would have had a good case.
  4. Man that sucks for Greenlaw. Tear your Achilles running onto the field in the Super Bowl.
  5. https://www.fifa.com/fifaplus/en/tournaments/mens/worldcup/canadamexicousa2026/articles/match-schedule-fixtures-results-teams-stadiums Full schedule with dates and locations. I’m a little annoyed they put two US games in LA and didn’t give one to SF.
  6. Can we get a delete post button for posts that haven’t been replied to? Would be nice to use just for accidental double posts.
  7. But you’re probably going to score anyway. There’s no need to try to reach for the goal line. By stretching the ball out, the upside is probably adding fractions of a point (the difference between for sure scoring and the slim chance of getting stuffed twice or more from the 1). However the downside is potentially costing yourself 6 or so points, which is what he did. The slim upside just isn’t worth the risk.
  8. If that means the results of both are the same I’ll be plenty happy with it.
  9. Have to know the situation. If he doesnt stretch the ball out, it’s either 3rd and 1 or 1st and goal from the 1, depending on where he goes down. No need to stretch the ball out there.
  10. Happy to be wrong. Looking forward to the final. Should be a fun one. We’ll see what Medvedev has left after back to back 5 setters.
  11. Tuned in right at the beginning of the third set and was shocked to see that not only was Djokovic down 2-0 but that he’d won only 3 total games. However I’ve seen him (and Nadal when he still played) be down 2-0 and come back and win too often so I bet on Novak at +350. He then won the third set in a tiebreaker so I assume he’s going to win the match now. I think I saw the stat correctly when they showed he’d won 20 of his previous 22 tiebreakers in majors before today, which is insane.
  12. Bucks have the second best record in the league but just fired their coach. They must hate him for that to happen.
  13. Even now if you ask me would I prefer the Cubs to have either A. Not won the title in 2016 or B. Won the title but had Chapman record the final out I'd take option B and wouldn't think twice about it. But man am I glad he didn't get the final out even though it made the night more stressful.
  14. Embiid went for 70 tonight. Towns at 55 and still in the 3rd quarter.
  15. Only Wash, Cle and Miami have longer current conference championship game appearance droughts than the Cowboys.
  16. That’s some good stuff right there.
  17. Poor Bills. I mean I assume even if they made the FG then Mahomes would have just gone down for a FG anyway. Buffalo barely stopped them all game.
  18. That’s totally fair and understandable.
  19. Successful is not the same as good. McCarthy is successful because he was lucky to go from Favre to Rodgers to Dak. I think most would agree that having 11 years of Rodgers and only making 1 SB and only 3 NFC title games is disappointing. Especially when LaFleur comes in, wins 13 straight games 3 straight years (McCarthy won 13 games once with Rodgers and twice total) and made back to back conf title games.
  20. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. The Cowboys held on to Garrett for far too long and they're doing it again with McCarthy.
  21. Jose Mourinho once again didn't last 3 years at a team?
  22. Nimmo and KB also didn’t have two awful years like Bellinger did in 2021 and 2022. The closest each came were in 2016 for Nimmo (80 PA as a rookie) and 2020 for KB (147 PAs in the weird Covid year). Bellinger had 350 and 550 PAs in his two bad years. There’s going to be some skepticism from teams because of that. of course like you said, all it takes is one team to go above and beyond.
  23. Strictly regarding the tweet since you didn't mention this part, but it's tough to feel bad for the Rams on a missed holding/PI call when they literally made the Super Bowl due to one of the worst missed PI calls in history.
