Both Bears and Pats could have had Flutie for a decade+. Or was he not good enough for the type of football the NFL was back then?

degenerasian

Yes. TSN YouTube page. Live stream is Blocked for me. You guys can try

3 draws a day, 9am, 2pm, 7pm Central time.

Nunavut split from NWT to become a territory.

NB and NS also have less people than SK.

Wild start

Who were the first power hitting shortstops? Ripken? Yount? All in the AL right?

Well Canada is a big place, maybe in Toronto they do. The locals here all say Cal-GREE

Canada's Prime Minster from 1984-93... Brian Mulroney Not the worst we've had, but a real sleazeball. A conservative who brought in a new sales tax! I'll translate that for our American friends - "A Canadian Conservative" Sure but then the Canadian Liberals wanted to "AXE the TAX! Po...

Penguins tie it up 2-2 on a 5-3 PP, then proceed to immediately give it back shorthanded on the 5-4 PP. Awesome. Two games in a row giving up a SHG? Nice that as soon as the PP shows the slightest sign of life they have to make sure to shit the bed some other way. That was their 8th of the season, ...

Publicity stunt? Is this like 100 people running for mayor of Toronto? She'd be rejected immediately.

degenerasian

Yeah, those pants are see through.

Also, Mayza had to put 4-10 on his jersey and be the bat boy for 3 innings because he came in last in fantasy football.

A project manager used "project cadance" the other day. Still don't know what it means. "Cadence" is just another way of saying schedule or frequency. For example, just a couple of weeks ago I got the ok to change the "cadence" of some triage meetings from 4 days a wee...

The current "Sports Bizarre" is an incredible and very funny story of a horse racing scam in Australia. It's called "The Fine Cotton Affair," and it's like a great comedy film waiting to be shot. I lost it at the end of part 1 when they bought 30 buckets of dye to dye the horse ...

Now he's dating a 40 year old, 2 months in they're really serious, about to move in together. Guh that's my nightmare.

Dating when older is a lot faster, both parties know what they want. Got a buddy who's 38, was in a relationship with someone 7 years younger for over a year and it ended up going nowhere, just a lot of mixed signals.

2 things I assume about Canadian curlers, including the women (tell me if I'm wrong): 1. Could drink me under the table 2. Would be MAGA as hell if situated in the United States 1. Yes 2. No. Curling has really progressed, into the 21st century, unlike a sport called hockey. There are also quite a ...

Surprises early. ManitobaLawes is 0-2 Saskatchewan is 2-0. The 22 year old rookie skip has given up a 4-ender in both her wins.

Degen, your dad must be completely assimilated into the cultural melting pot, if he’s a big curling fan. Oh ya, he's been in Canada almost 50 years. As he's getting older, he likes curling because it is slow and strategic and all the big events are on tv. Hockey, for example, it now too fast and ch...

I love how the new overtime rules cause so much debate. Very much overdue. Some questions to discuss. 1. If you win the coin toss, do you kick or receive? The consensus seems to be to kick, you want to know what you have to do. Although, I would still receive because I believe in scoreboard pressure...

Now I wish the niners got a TD and celebrated like they won.

degenerasian

True, I did not take the 2 point convert into account.

degenerasian

I would take the ball first. If you feel both defenses are gassed and touchdowns are easy, you want the ball 3rd. You look at the two games that caused the rule change. In the Super Bowl when the Patriots scored with a TD, would Atlanta have equalized? And if so, Patriots get the ball 3rd. Same with...

I am kind of surprised seeing you guys hate on "the code". The unwritten code is one of the things that makes hockey hockey. Running a star player will have consequences, don't touch the goalie, no punching while someone is down, etc etc. Hockey refereeing and rulebook is not capable of c...

mister d wrote: ↑Sun Feb 11, 2024 12:11 am Did you just compare a hit to prevent a goal to a hit in retaliation for a goal?

They are actually similar. Why is Laine making an effort (like speeding up) to shoot at an empty net with 3 seconds left? And why does Andersson care enough to violently go after Laine's knees to prevent it?

It’s getting late so I can’t keep the Jose Bautista playoff game in my back pocket … is it bad Beltre didn’t light him up at 3B? They threw at him and punched him in the face the following season. Would that be better solution here? They stalk the guy next game? I say 2 games. The hotdogging will b...

. There's even a victory formation in the NFL, not running more plays or taunting or taking a slap shot into an empty net. And, when the Saints ran a play to score an unsportsmanlike touchdown from victory formation, the only Falcon who lost his shit was the coach, not the players. Players had chec...

Then why is there a penalty? To prevent fights.

degenerasian

Agreed. And the Leafs coach said a cross check to the face is “appropriate” response to breaking a stupid unwritten rule. Hockey has a culture problem. You can't blast the puck into an empty net, that's taunting. Imagine if Ducks-era Corey Perry did that to Sharks. Should the Sharks just accept it?...

These are hockey players, they know this. Must be more history for Grieg to shoot the puck like that. I don't watch enough of the Ontario rivals. Just imagine your most hated player doing that to your team. If Grieg wasn't expecting some kind of reaction for that, he's an idiot Both things can be tr...
