A place to discuss the sports stories that aren't making news, share links that aren't quite front-page material, and diagram plays on your hand. Remember to count to five Mississippi before commenting in anger.

TIL: Kevin Pietersen wears a baseball hat with his initials on it. Is that weird? It's kinda weird. Is it?
