The Thursday Huddle is awesome! I see a lot of similarities between io games and sports. Both require strategy, skill, and interaction with other players.

What a classic. If I had been watching that match in bed with Margot Robbie, I would have given her an Ambien.

The thing that floors me about the competitive eaters is how often they compete.
Miki Sudo competes constantly, sometimes on consecutive days, and consistently places 1st 2nd or 3rd.
When you're eating a ton of food 3 and 4 times a week, that's just insane. There's no recovery time. You just keep...going.

Care to wager on Joey Chestnut to win the hot dog eating contest?

It has become quite apparent that lately, I am taking care of myself. Introducing Liver Detox Capsules to my daily health regime has been one of the wisest choices that I have made. They are easily consumable, of high quality, and have provided me with greater refreshment. I can say from the bottom of my heart that I am truly pleased with their performance.

And the #1 overall pick in the recent NHL draft is Trondk Hwchin. His grandpa is a survivor of Canada's Indian reeducation program.

Watching France in the World Cup is like watching the 85-86 Celtics.

For those not keeping an eye on the NBA off-season, here's a quick summary:
- Giannis now plays for Miami
- LaMelo Ball now plays for Minnesota
- Julius Randle now plays for Brooklyn
- Ja Morant is now one of four starting PGs on the Portland Trailblazers
- LeBron James no longer plays for the Lakers. Highly rumored to join Steph and Draymond in Golden State followed by a possible pursuit of Anthony Davis
- and we just learned that Kawhi Leonard is headed back to Toronto.
And now Free Agency begins.

The CFL Pickem is paused while I figure out why nothing is saving to the contest database.
I was in Miami for two weeks at an airport hotel right next to Nu Stadium. I wish I'd been there long enough to see Scotland invade for the final group match at the Hard Rock, er, Miami Stadium.

The Mavericks have one of the best in Masai, and I think he's made a good choice here.

The Mavericks' nice clean cut young man is now going to be coached by a nice clean cut young man of no small accomplishment.
Congrats to Masai on getting a deal done with Dusty May before the draft. Let's see who the Mavs pick.
Warde Manuel can't buy 10 minutes without chaos threatening to finally hand him the pink slip that's been hovering in the background for some time.
If there hasn't been a pink slip sitting in someone's drawer, then the UM admin is fully dysfunctional.
Warde being the "luck he don't deserve" poster person, watch him pull another Whittingham and land Billy Donovan.

The Florida Panthers trade three first round picks and a second round pick to the Ottawa Senators for meathead #2, Brady Tckachuck. The Panthers now have 0 first round picks until 2031 and have only $7 million in cap space with only six defensemen under contract and zero goalies.

No more Saturday night NHL hockey on CBC? According to The Athletic there will be no more. Is nothing sacred in Canada? When radio atmospheric propagation conditions were right, I would listen to CBC, usually a station in Nova Scotia, just to hear something different. ,

Has John Tortorella set a record for the shortest duration as the head coach of a Stanley Cup finals team? Hired by Vegas on March 29 and dismissed on June 16, a total of 49 days in the position. What might management expect for performance?
He was replaced by the head coach of their AHL affiliate. Apparently this was in the plans for a while now. I guess they didn't want to throw him to the wolves as the playoffs were approaching.

ABC/ESPN executives are celebrating right now. The NBA had the highest TV ratings since 1998 and the NHL had their highest since 2019.

Love the concept of the Wednesday Huddle! It reminds me of the stickman hook game, where you have to strategize your moves carefully. Just like in sports, timing and precision are key!

I want to know if Dolan is going to try to strong arm the Knicks players into going to the UFC White House to celebrate their title.
To hobnob with his buddy who might have cost the team a sweep.
Dolan can tuck the trophy under his arm and go solo for the Quarter Pounders and fries that the tenant likes to serve to title winners without regard for the longstanding in-house world class culinary staff. It's the Dabo Swinney combo meal menu first lavishly spread out for the conquering Clemson Tiger football team back in a prior chapter of the American diminuendo.
Meanwhile, I wish I was a helicopter operator licensed to operate in the greater metro NYC area. Between the Knicks victory parade, the World Cup and the US Open golf tournament conveniently being held on Long Island starting Thursday, I could make some serious change ferrying people up and over and helping them avoid the road and rail nightmares that are sure to follow.

A few random thoughts that have come to me after reading through the sports media today:
James Dolan is reported to have told the Knicks players to emulate the Spartans during the playoffs by abstaining from sex for the 10 weeks of competition. No word on Dolan's participation.
If you lived in the Boston area from the late 1960s through the 1980s, the name Eddie Andelman might be familiar. The man that many consider the father of sports radio in Boston passed away recently at the age of 89. I was away from Boston for much of that time, but I did hear him on occasion and I remember him as unique.

When the White House sports information director said that beast mode was on the doorstep, he didn't realize he was talking about the Saudi and Cape Verdean goalkeepers.

Great to see a space for under-the-radar sports stories! Speaking of games, I've been hooked on slope game 2 lately. The thrill of navigating those slopes reminds me of how athletes have to adapt and maneuver in unexpected situations. It's all about balance and quick reflexes, much like the strategies we see in lesser-known sports!
