SportsFilter: The Sunday 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.
That the kid I cracked jokes with in 4th and 5th grades turned out to be the lead singer of a band large enough to play events like the Opening Ceremony of the Euro Final will forever trip me out . Good on ya, Ryan T.

Good day to be a sports fan if you speak Spanish. The young Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz takes out Djokovic in straight sets to win the Wimbledon championship, then Spain wins Euro 24, and later on tonight a Spanish speaking country will win tonight's Copa America championship.

One Republic, NoMich, who tbh I'm not particularly familiar with.
He's got a pretty impressive list of production credits to boot. Must be some kind of life.

I told the doctor that the swelling above the bridge of my nose wasn't a hematoma, it was a eurocopa.
