I get that he’s atypical for a 40-year-old player but you’re not getting 30-year-old LeBron at this point so seems kinda like a real bad idea for a variety of reasons.

Clark with only 8 points and 6 TOs against the defending champs. Was outscored by her former backcourt partner at Iowa (Kate Martin) who might have been a steal in the second round by the Aces, who needed some depth help.

Re: 2023-2024 NHL Season
I'm sorry but what is "playoff Rempe" and how does that differ between regular season Rempe and why is playing him controversial? Doesn't every team have a thug or two? Is he just bad at hockey beyond the physicality part? No, teams do not “have a thug or two”. Why you don’t put Rempe in ...

Pavement is a total blind spot for me. Should probably fix that given how often I hear their name dropped.

I think that’s both fair (it is probably considered the 4th prestigious of the majors), unfair (it usually has the best field as far as top 100 players year-in and year-out) and the result of laziness in not wanting to start a new thread.
