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.

DK Metcalf: a man dedicated to the his craft of trash talking: Trash talking is slowly decreasing in the NFL. Whether fans, players and coaches like it or not, the league is cracking down on taunting, as they want their participants to set a good example for the younger audience. There are undoubtedly ways to get around the flags and fines, but DK Metcalf has found the perfect loophole: sign language.

Cousins' contract is $100 million guaranteed, right? Just that alone means that the Panthers won't be 100% the butt of all NFC South jokes now. Then drafting Penix in the first round on top of that? /chef's kiss

or that Maye ends up falling to the second round of the NFL draft.

And it's the Panthers that draft him.

The Bronco's seeing the Panthers' moves as something to emulate. I'm sure it will work out just fine when they're still paying Sean Payton after firing him a year and a half into his five year tenure.

I don't think I've ever seen a hockey game where a team scores a goal with their own goalie pulled, then score another goal with both goalies on the ice, then score another goal when the other team's goalie was pulled. All within 90 seconds.

2024 WNBA Draft: First-round grades, full results as Caitlin Clark goes No. 1 to Indiana Fever

No surprise with the #1 overall pick of Caitlin Clark to Indiana. Chicago Sky (really wish that the name would've been Skyline) get 6'7" Kamilla Cordoso of South Carolina (and also the Most Outstanding Player of the Final Four) *and* Angel Reese.

As a side note: South Carolina had only one player selected in the draft. Does that mean that the rest of the team returned to college?

SportsFilter: The Thursday Huddle

The 'not guilty' verdict brought on a wave of white anger over a black man getting away with murder of a beautiful white woman that I will never be able to unpicture. At least from what I witnessed in the South, but I'll bet it wasn't too different up there in northern Michigan. And Norm McDonald's first couple of jokes aimed at OJ were humorous, but boy oh boy did he ever lean hard into that topic. I was just waiting for the n-bombs to eventually come out, but much to his credit, he kept them bottled up. Good for him?
