Friday is the first match for the Premier League! Will the SportsFilter fantasy league be renewed?

It's been a while since I watched hockey consistently, although I do enjoy it and tune in occasionally. I've noticed this year that players tend to pin the puck against the boards more to waste time. The refs rarely call for a face-off. This was really noticable right at the end of game 7, when one of the Panthers was practially lying on the puck. Did I miss a rule change somewhere along the way?
Oh, and also my husband would want me to put in a plug for our local Kansas City Mavericks (ECHL), for which Carter Verhaeghe played. Local boy does good!
Congrats to the Panthers!

I was very surprised to see the news. I have liked Klopp and his post-match interviews ever since he joined Liverpool. He clearly loves his job. However, I totally understand where he is coming from, sometimes the strain is just not worth it any more. There are waaaayy too many games across multiple competitions scheduled for the top-tier teams these days. It's no wonder it takes a toll with all the traveling.
I was also happy to hear he doesn't want to manage in the PL for any other club. That's class.

Thanks for renewing the league. Haaland was my first pick, he's more expensive than last year so I couldn't afford many of the midfielders I wanted. I'm going to have to do some reshuffling tonight. Good luck to everyone!

Thanks, I posted this a couple of days ago too. I don't have it on my list either. I haven't figured out how to tag RCade so he will see this post.

The USWNT played in a very mediocre fashion the entire tournament. If you can't score, you can't win. I was surprised they made it out of their group. I sure hope they can get their act together before the next World Cup. Ok I have finished venting now. My sentimental favorite to win: Australia. Who I think will win: Japan.

I don't understand the appeal of this. I guess followers are wanting to see Messi's every move, every word, every can of pop opened. I have better things to do with my time.
Having said that, I hope this works out well for MLS, and it not a bust like Steven Gerrard or Frank Lampard. Sadly though, I am sure ticket prices for my local Sporting KC will go through the roof for this match. I'm not paying.

I have been reading SportsFilter posts for years and finally signed up as a member. I wanted to congratulate everyone in the SportsFilter Fantasy PL league, it was a fun ride! Kudos to The Cheeky Backheels for keeping me guessing all season. And a shout out to brzz for a spectacular haul in GW38 to take 2nd place. I'm looking forward to next season! Kind regards, Sonburn

Play SportsFilter's Fantasy Premier League
You did well last year! I didn't have Haaland most of last season and did pretty well. I selected him this season, and he broke my bank. I think they should cap the top players at 13, and calculate everyone else below that. Good luck to all!
