    23-24 Bruins Season Thread

    The Bruins really need Brazeau to be okay for the playoffs. I hope they've been just rope-a-doping the press on this one and now that the playoffs are coming, he'll be ready to go.

    Choose the opponent?

    Aren't we at close-the-thread time with this one? I wanted Toronto which probably means Toronto will finally figure things out this year.

    Jack Edwards to retire

    Well said. I'll miss him even though it is clearly time. Let's hope we don't get stuck with some Newhouse zombie. Do you watch Bruins games regularly? He clearly has developed some neurological related speech issues, about which he's spoken publicly even though his diagnosis -- IIRC -- is...

    4/15 -- Boston @ Washington

    I just turned this on a few minutes ago. Bruins look like they are skating through slush

    Just keep that goon Wilson away from everyone except Maroon.

    Denver, though, was also incredibly lucky to be there at all, with three 2-1 games, two of which went to OT, one to double OT and even the regulation game against Cornell was super tight. They were out shot in every game, including the final. They lived a charmed life the whole tournament...

    April 13 -- Boston @ Pittsburgh

    Pittsburgh games are fun to watch, but they would be an infuriating team to root for. They defend like a team with four forwards and one defender on the ice.

    BC had little to no luck tonight at all. Tough.

    So I don't love how well Denver is playing. This is going to be a grind of a game

    2004 WS Celebration

    My wife is convinced that only 'we' call Kevin Millar 'Chicken Bucket.' I told her, 'no way!' But then doing a little SoSH search here has me worried. Can it possibly be the case that this is not standard nomenclature? The mind reels.

    50% is a ton. I guess I like the idea of hitting this aggressively because it creates some balls where they likely will pop up the volley on that body shot, but ... I might need to road test that % and see if I can make it work. I'd love it if I could successfully move to this approach.

    Giving up on being an athlete: the pickleball thread

    I think my own ridiculous posts in this thread from last year probably chart my own capitulation to the standard sequence, so I hear where you are coming from. But in doubles there is a relatively formulaic sequence that even very non-agile players can exploit, assuming their basic hitting is...

    That sounds like singles. Yes?
