  1. Looks like he probably tore his right hammy.
  2. i swear i was like jed and who?? I still am
  3. And Darvish pulled after 6 with a no-hitter (92 pitches)
  4. Guessing he wants his 3 best hitters getting the most plate appearances.
  5. MLB TV for 50% off (sort of), but a big discount, nonetheless. Found an article from TechHive about a way to get MLB TV at a big discount. Here's the link to the article TechHive MLB TV Hidden Discount Basically, you can get a membership with the MLB Players' Alumni Association for $25 bucks. This allows you a %50 discount for MLB TV among a variety of other discounts. MLB TV is currently $139.99, but with a %50 discount, it's $70.00. Add the $25 from the MLBPAA and it's $95, still a really nice discount. I signed up and immediately got an email from "Jim Thome" thanking me, yada yada yada and a link to the 50% off deal. Followed the link and re-started my MLB TV subscription. Sure as sh!t, immediately got an email from MLB Subscriptions thanking me for my purchase (showing the $70 discount). Went to MLB TV and was already logged in (from last year) showing me I was signed up for the 2022 season. Apparently you can get MiLB TV for 50% off as well ($12.50 instead of $25), but I haven't tried yet.
  6. I like what Olsen has to say most of the time. My issue is how he says things. He makes points with a loud whisper. He'll talk in a normal voice and then when getting to the crux of his point will dial his voice down. Just spit it out, man.
  7. Don't know the exact rule, but I thought he actually step over/on (slightly) the center court line
  8. Technically they did, would have been free throws [glow=red]Personally I thought it was a backcourt violation.[/glow] Miles got himself in deep horsefeathers and kinda flopped when he felt some contact trying to draw a whistle. Would have been awful to see him bailed out with FT’s at that point. And I say this as a fan of him as a player. First saw him play AAU ball 3 years ago. His team was stacked and he was only a 3* but he was the most impressive player that day in my opinion. I thought the exact same thing in real time. Was surprised it wasn't called.
  9. https://youtu.be/VVYA3oTG8fg :clapping: BRAVO!!! First time I saw this I was about 6 years old. Hilarious then and hilarious now. Thanks for sharing!!
  10. This has been a pretty boring Superb Owl.
  11. My local team, the Arizona Wildcats played #3 UCLA on Thursday and avenged a loss nine days earlier in LA with a double-digit win. And then two days later, today, they took out #19 USC. Should be enough to get back into the Top 5. Bear down!!!
  12. This. I’m no puckhead, but Gretzky played in the least popular major sport, for a Canadian team, in the western time zone, well before the surges of the 24 sports programming, the internet and social media. The NHL was forced to change the rules of hockey because Gretzky (mostly) and the rest of the Oilers were so dominant on power plays. Gretzky was probably the greatest/most dominant singular player of any team sport in the history of sports. And I don’t even think it’s close. As far as TB being the greatest champion, Bill Russell disagrees.
  13. LEGEND!!!!!!
  14. I think this season and last (at least in the playoffs), it’s been Brady’s defense that has put TB in a position to tie/win. Last year he threw 3 picks in the NFCC. And in the Superb Owl, the defense held the high-flying Chefs to 9 points. Today, TB had 2T TOs but the defense forced 3 fumbles. Brady is great, but he’s had phenomenal defenses year in, year out over the course of his career.
  15. I’m happy for Stafford. Didn’t mind seeing his yearly demise while in the division. But he’s a really good QB that was unfortunate to be drafted by a shitty team run by a shitty organization. Seems like a good guy, so good for him.
  16. It’s early, give it time. Who’d a thunk?
  17. Aaron Rodgers and the Packers can still make it to the Super Bowl if Mike Pence has enough courage. — Daily Trix (@DailyTrix) January 23, 2022 I don’t know how to post a “tweet”, so feel free to do it for me. But this one is also genius! :rotfl:
  18. It’s early, give it time.
  19. This. 100%! This is the thing that gets most Packers fans. To have 30 consecutive seasons of HoF QB play and only 2 championships in 3 tries is baffling. And last night wasn’t the first time STs has ended their playoffs. Also mind boggling how the organization has not really addressed this unit as a whole for most of the last 20 years. That said, the Twitter-roasting is hilarious. I think my favorite was the OAN and 1. Edit - missed it the first time, but love the “stop….. he hates being needled “. =D>
  20. Not certain they get past the Rams, but maybe.
  21. also your qb is a delusional qanon supporting douchebag that never backs up his [expletive] words Eh, whatever. I try not to get to wrapped up in professional athletes personal lives, or really their lives off the field. I like him during games/season. He probably is a douche. But I’ll never interact personally with him. And there’s a lot of worse athletes/people in professional sports/entertainment industry.
  22. This is actually HILARIOUS!!!!!!! It just emphasizes the complete ineptitude of the Special Teams and the coaching! BWAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Only 10 players on the winning kick. masterful Mo Drayton!
  23. If I had to give a reason why the Packers would lose to the Niners, or anyone for that matter, my first 8-10 reasons would be some sort of STs f’up! As a Cubs fan, I’m used to saying, “Wait ‘til next year”.
  24. Holy crap PLVA knows his Packers, no question about that. As I was saying.
