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.
If I was a longtime Leafs fan, I don't know whether I would share your apparent enthusiasm for tonight's contest.
I'd likely be torn between anticipation and dread.

I'll be seeing The Melvins and Napalm Death tonight but am very much looking forward to the Thunder and Nuggets finale.

That tour just came through Chapel Hill a week or two ago. I couldn't make it, but friends that did said it was amazing. Have fun and god bless your ears, friend.

I hear that the Scheffler tour made the most of its time in Charlotte this week.

Your friends weren't lying, NoMich. That was fuuuun.
I do wish Weedeater had stuck on for this leg of the tour, but what'cha gonna do?

Weedeater! Wilmington, NC's very own! Great band.
