The Sweet 16 is here. And there were some fun games yesterday, although I don't understand the NCAA's decision to pack the schedule with games starting at 7 or later on a Sunday night. The SEC, after a rough opening round, got it together and put 7 teams into the...
The NCAAs are here. Tomorrow, anyway. And it's a good thing, because not much else's going on. Hey, this guy actually gets it. And we're getting close to opening day in the major leagues (I don't count that Tokyo crap). Finally, sports sanity is back. Well, most of...
The field is set. And I think the committee gave the SEC just a little more credit than they deserved. But we'll see how deep they are once the game start. Kinda shocked Auburn got the overall #1 seed after losing 3 of their final 4 games. But injuries at Duke...
The Buckeyes crashed out of the Big Ten tournament early, and now have no hope of getting into the big dance. The Jets officially cut Rodgers. And across the pond, Real Madrid pulled a rabbit out of their ass in the CL and advanced on penalties. Sounds like an annual...
The NFL had a C-R-A-Z-Y day yesterday what with all the trades and free agent deals. Lots of money being thrown at lots of guys. College basketball conference tourneys are underway, with the big conferences starting up play in the next couple of days. My Buckeyes are...
Prepare for a stanky edition of…the links!
Not much going on this past weekend. They played a hockey game in front of 90,000 people in The Horseshoe. A bunch of basketball was played. And spring training marches on. That's pretty much it. Across the pond, they (mostly) wrapped up the FA Cup round of 16 and...
It pleases me to see the spring training scores on the banner at ESPN. It also pleases me to see that the Dodgers are playing like ass. But I doubt that will last very long. I'll enjoy seeing them at the bottom of some standings while I can. Across the pond, the Copa...
Bless you… here are the links.
Be happy. Here come…the links!
The syrup-suckers held off the Finnish rally and will play the US in Boston for all the bragging rights in the Four Nations thingy the NHL has smartly replace the All-Star stuff with. There's a scandal going on in the tennis world. The UCL knockout first round starts...
The US beat the shit out of Finland. Rodgers is gone from the Jets. And the Europa League started its knockouts yesterday. That's about it. Moving on. Good. This is what we want. And it better just be a start. This is more bullshit. The Supreme Court needs to put a...
When racism isn't racism. Even in Australia. Maybe they really have moved on. Lol, yeah sure. Anyway, there's nothing going on sports-wise in the US right now, except this. But the UCL knockouts started with half of the first-round knockout first legs happening...
The Eagles absolutely demolished the Chiefs in the Super Bowl. I hadn't seen a beating like that since the Rose Bowl. I don't stay up to watch the riots in Philly, but I can only assume how civilized they were. And across the pond, while seeing Spuds get bounced in...
I can't find anything to talk about on this side of the pond. Can one of you hockey insiders bring me up to speed on the season so I can tune in and start giving updates? Newcastle thrashed Arsenal (for the third time this season) and are in the League Cup final. They...
I got nothing for sports since everything being reported is all Super Bowl fluff. But Spring Training is right around the corner, so there's that. Now moving on... Bukele's got our back. This would be very interesting should it come to pass. I'll be curious to see how...
There in't much happening in the sports world. At least on this side of the pond. The UCL group stage wraps up today with a slew of matches. And with this year's format, I think it's gonna get wild around 3:30 or so. And then there's this. "Sure, our staffers went to...
Well, this is a Super Bowl almost nobody in the world wanted to see. The Eagles demolished the Redskins while the Chiefs relied on some crucial cameral angles and inconclusive evidence to pull out a win over the Bills. May their two fanbases enjoy it. Meanwhile,...
Sabalenka is into the Final. The other match is still going in the third set as I write this. UPDATE: going to a tiebreaker in the third set. FINAL UPDATE: Keys fights back in the super-tiebreaker to win and advance! And across the pond, the penultimate round of UCL...
That's right, THE Ohio State University beat Notre Dame in the National Championship Game. And all shall now bow in respect. They did what they could to make it interesting, but there was never a doubt after that second drive. Elsewhere, the Bears hired a new coach...
The NFL Conference Championship games are set. The Redskins demolished the Lions to set up an all-NFC East final with the Eagles, and the Bills managed to hang on due to a dropped pass on a two point try by the Ravens and will face the Chiefs (and probably the...
I got nothing at all for sports, other than to note we have a good football playoff weekend ahead if us and then the CFP Final Monday night. I can't wait. Now on to the links. Well, good. The government should have never had something like this in the first place. I...
Get in, we’re going to pick up…the links!
That Notre Dame-Penn State game sure was an interesting one. Allar really screwed the pooch. Anyway, the big one is tonight. Hopefully the final is an all-midwest affair. The NFL has moved the Rams-Vikings playoff game to Phoenix, wisely. And that's it for sports....
The CFP semifinals are finally here. The NFL might move the Rams-Vikings game to Phoenix. And across the pond, Liverpool lost their first leg to Spurs 1-0 after a Spurs player scored who should have been ejected a few minutes before. Having said that, the result was...
