SportsFilter: The Saturday Huddle:
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.
Online, I still see people typing "Bra7i1" to provoke Brazilians...

An acquaintance of mine had to rename his dogs on the spot.
They were named Hulk and Fred, and he lived near a sports-minded local churrascaria.
Suggestions were quick in coming, including rejected classics such as Kroos and Klose and Siegfried and Roy.

Don't bother trying to get tickets to see "Hamilton".
There's a show getting ready to hit the stage about James Harden and his fat new contract with the Rockets.
It's called "Halliburton".
If the Rockets bring in Carmelo with his contract, I don't understand how they're going to be able to pay everybody.
