Sports Bio

My favorite teams are the Cubs, Tigers, Lions, Panthers, Hurricanes, Sri Lanka, and Kings XI Punjab.
My most memorable sporting event that I attended was Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals in 2006 when the Hurricanes won it all. I will never forget a second of that game.

SportsFilter: The Tuesday Huddle

LOL

As a Pack fan, this whole circus is pretty hilarious and kind of reminiscent of the Prime circus that rolled into Boulder a few years ago just to have pretty meh teams. But hey, lotsa merch being sold which, in the end, is all that really matters.

Cowboys Trade Micah Parsons to Packers

2 first rounders? I'd say that's a good haul for the Cowboys.

THE ROAD TO COOPERSTOWN PODCAST

I haven't listened to that one yet, but the guys do talk about things. Mostly about coming up in baseball, but if they're enough of a character, they'll get into the good stories.

SportsFilter: The Wednesday Huddle

He's been awesome for the Hurricanes and the Caniacs. Our team is now a perennial playoff monster that just hasn't been able to win it all, but man, it was a dark journey to get here. I don't remember the 20teens and nor do I want to. Absolute dreck. Also, he could've been more like David Tepper. whew!

It seems that he has a thing for teams that are red, black, and white and have cyclone-shaped logos.

Ottawa Senators, NCC complete sale agreement for 11 acres at LeBreton Flats.

How's the bus/rail system in downtown Ottawa?

People that live in Raleigh are pining for a downtown hockey arena, but since there is no rail service and a bus service that is somehow worse than the rail situation, I would probably never go to another game. Since at least half of all in attendance don't live in Raleigh itself and most of those that do, live quite a ways from downtown, so it would be a nightmare to get in and out of the arena in a car. Besides, it would mean the death of our awesome tailgate culture that we have going on.

SportsFilter: The Sunday Huddle

Amazing. And that explains a Bluesky post that I saw yesterday, something along the lines of "takes a drag off a smoke, tells the QB: just get me to our 45 yard line" My internal reaction was that this idiot poster doesn't know the difference between "our" side of the field vs "their" side of the field. Who's the idiot poster now? (me. the answer is me.)

SportsFilter: The Saturday Huddle

Yeah, he looked good against a terrible defense that should make mediocre QBs around the league look good. He got over that low bar with no problem. So good for him.
I know I'm sounding sarcastic here, but I really am rooting for the kid. I think it would be quite the story if he was the one to lead the Browns to the Super Bowl (but lose to the Lions).

Exactly. Or making sure that their players make it home safely.

UNC sees cricket as the next big thing

Funny thing is, we already have a cricket field that is the size required to international matches. Problem is, there's hardly any seating and I don't think there's enough space to add more. If we want big time international matches here in the Triangle, this stadium in Chapel Hill needs to be built.
