CFL Pickem Week 11: The Week of Blown Locks: The CFL Pickem resumes tonight with the Friday night tilt between two two-win teams: Toronto and Edmonton. Nobody scored a point last week because we all blew up so many locks (standings). Ouch!

Knicks Owner Bans Thousands of Lawyers: James Dolan, the owner of Madison Square Garden and the New York Knicks, maintains an "attorney exclusion list" from his venues that uses facial recognition to keep thousands of them out of events. All attorneys at a firm that sues MSG get the banhammer. "We always are getting notice letters," said the personal injury litigator John Morgan of Morgan & Morgan. "I get letters. My wife gets letters. My kids get letters." He responded by setting up SueMSG.com looking for new cases.

I hate this because ESPN has become a tired brand and the lack of competition will make them worse. It seems weird to me that the NFL tried so hard for so long to grow its own media, succeeded by any measure and was making profits it didn't have to share with a broadcaster.

These stories hit different in the age of NIL.
There should never be a coach at high school level punished for feeding their players.

This is one of the craziest things an American sports franchise has ever done. They started out with the understandable goal of helping a youth hockey infrastructure grow in a place that didn't offer much. Then they embraced every cutthroat and greedy tactic of the travel team/advanced youth sports racket. It is way out of hand.
It also is alienating a lot of parents and players who should be prime Stars fan base potential. Dumb on all levels.

I've successfully avoided learning anything about cricket because I know I'll devote as much time to it as I did the Premier League when I began watching in 2006 on Fox Soccer. That first decade was glorious. I learned so much but still can't tell when a handball is a ball to hand.
Dallas/Fort Worth has Major League Cricket in Grand Prairie and something proposed for Allen. I might have to check it out if I'm visiting family at the right time to see matches.

Ryno was one of the greats. It was a shame that only his final season had interleague play.
His game would be well-suited to today's MLB. He had 32-54 steals his first six seasons in Chicago.

You missed game 3, Tommybiden. Or something went awry on the form.

My CFL expertise is a work in progress. I spent an embarrassing amount of time on a 4 a.m. thought exercise wondering why Vancouver doesn't have a team when it's such a big city. In lieu of apology I am picking B.C. this week.

The new Packers president is Ed Policy, which sounds like a name any organization could count on for informed leadership. I haven't been this jealous over an advantageous surname since I met Java book author Peter Coffee.
