Italy beat the USA in the World Baseball Classic last night.
Ah, no big deal says Mark DeRosa, Team USA has already clinched a spot in the next round.

Bam Adebayo scores 83, passes Kobe Bryant for second most in a game in NBA history
The most startling thing is the 40 or so he scored in the first half.
And how many times he went to the line, which is insane.
Someone ought to review the props betting lines for that game to see if there are any unexplained anomalies.

If you told me someone was going to surpass 81 this season I wouldn't have any problem whatsoever believing you.
Bam wouldn't have been in my first 50 guesses of who would do it, though. Good on him!

I see Teddy Bridgewater has signed with Detroit.
How is he only 33 years old?

Folks are putting Scheyer up for Coach of the Year but when I watch Flagg and Kon operate in the pros, all I can think of is how the hell did Duke not win the title last year?

I can see the Falcons signing Tua for a practical reason.
Between him and Penix it gives them two lefties, so if they need to sub in, they don't have to change the RB and WR positioning and can keep the same run block and pass pro assignments.
But with two guys this injury prone, they'll probably end up having to sub in someone like Trubisky or Tyrod Taylor before their bye week.
Brock Osweiler is low mileage and only 35.

Going to be an interesting barometer of a week for Howard's Celtics as they play at the Spurs tonight and at OKC on Thursday. Nice eatin' for those of us without much of a stake left in the season too.

i am dismayed that Tua is choosing to still play, and really disappointed that Atlanta is the team.
As you stated, he's going to be in real trouble (if he's not already), with cumulative brain injuries.

LOL. Very true now that I think about it.
I just can't see signing Tua, no matter how cheaply he can come today, with his concussion history. Mostly it's a morality issue right now since one more concussion will probably ruin his life. How can someone justify being a party to that?

You know, NoMich, your 'Yikes!' could easily be applied to either story.
And, as an Atlanta Falcons fan, when I heard the club was signing him to a 1 year deal, "ah, FFS"

Pearl's assertion that a .500 Auburn team would be more deserving than a 1-loss Miami team was patently absurd, but the ensuing debate has brought a lot of attention to a wonderful school on a beautiful campus that most people weren't aware of. I am absolutely loving the publicity that Miami is getting these days (I don't remember so many eyes being on Oxford, OH, even back in the days of Ben Roethlisberger). First, the video of the men's hockey gold medal celebration at Brick Street, among the nation's top ranked college bars, went viral. Now Wally Szczerbiak is back in Oxford grabbing bagels from the Bagel & Deli for his CBS Sports comrades.
This year's team seems special. I sure hope they can keep it rolling and shut some doubters up.

I like how the article says "season-opening (30 game) winning streak".
Dude, Selection Sunday is next weekend. They had a season-opening 10 game winning streak.
Then just kept cranking. Put 'em in the St. John's bracket so they can make a name for themselves by shutting down the opera in the first act.

Read an article on this in T.A. yesterday.
Even if they lose 1st round of the MAC, I think they have to be in.
Up 31, Down 1?
I don't care who you played, you won.
Much rather them than an 8th-9th team from the SEC or another power conference.

Glad to find out you're OK after the recent avalanche tragedy.
You won't find me among the sensitive. Say whatever you want about the Catholics and the Irish.
We started it. The line forms behind us. Including the actors on Broadway doing leg kicks dressed up like nuns.
I wish I could do a "get over it" TED Talk for those who are offended at the falling of a leaf.
Maybe I don't have to. Bill Burr is already out there straightening it out.

Both US Olympic hockey teams were invited to attend the State Of The Union speech tomorrow.
Totally predictable grasping for spectacle and basking in the glow of achievement by association.
Women's team has "respectfully declined" due to prior commitments.
Flights back to the US from Italy couldn't land in NY or DC as planned, had to be diverted south to Atlanta or Miami.
Hoping the weather gods make attendance an impossibility. NHL games restart on Weds.
Meanwhile, the US Mint has just issued a commemorative one dollar coin called the Hella Buck.

What's wrong with Irish stew?
My ancestors came from Ireland 20 years before the blight.
But once you've seen Vijay Singh's dinner menu from a few years ago, the concept of stew isn't up to par.
Stew is by no means a bottom dragger though.
Not when Sandy Lyle, who shares Scottish heritage with rcade, once served haggis.
I think everyone else at the table had a steak or a cheeseburger.

Early reports on the upcoming Champions Dinner menu at the Masters have host Rory McIlroy serving things like Irish stew.
Mutton, mutton, who's got the mutton.
Guessing a few of the past champions in attendance will be ordering off the club menu.
Some may be pining for the Scheffler sliders or Bubba Watson's confetti cake.
