    Score Bug: Love or Hate

    Totally agree with Boise State and EC games being unwatchable. I also found this to be garish when the teams were playing on it. The 90s were a great time to be alive, but I don't need the color pallete to return.

    The LIX logo is truly ugly and Fox keeps spinnig it in our face

    Super Bowl LIX Game Thread

    the lack of protection and Mahomes on the run the whole time really reminds me of the Tampa Bay Super Bowl. However, in that Super Bowl Mahomes kept making amazing plays while running and falling. This time he does not seem to have that kind of incredible athletic ability to single-handedly keep...

    NFL Wild Card Weekend Game Thread

    I’m having a very busy day and have checked in on the games eight or nine times. But it seems to me that every time I turn the game on there is some sort of head to head contact injury, or a commercial break or a blowout. I have only seen about 30 minutes of football today, but I’m thinking it...

    24-25 CFB Playoff Quarterfinals

    Certainly an entertaining game -- a shit show for much of it, but entertaining. The desperation flea flicker horribly underthrown that results in a TD The needless throw by Texas down field that is intercepted on 2nd down when Texas needed to grind the clock. Clear targeting that is waved off...

    2024 WS: Yankees vs. Dodgers

    Yep, I was rolling my eyes pretty heavily at that one. Are the headline (link-text) writers just trying to get clicks, regardless of what the clip shows? One could say that's "pathetic."

    It could still happen. Never underestimate the draw of a cribbage partner.

    NFL Week 4 Game Thread

    What would’ve happened had they accepted the penalty there? They would’ve had the ball 15 yards further up the field for one last play? Maybe the fans wanted to see a Hail Mary…

    Joe Castiglione to retire at end of season

    For me Joe Castiglione has been the sound of so much of my life. Starting with listening to him and Ken Coleman-- often holding the transistor radio close to my ear, volume at its lowest so my parents wouldn't know I was listening to the game after lights out. Decades later, Joe keeping me...

    That last 3, my brother in law and I screamed and significantly startled our Minecraft-playing daughters in the room (their fault for not being interested and watching the game with us!) A great moment in sports viewership and family bonding…

    5-Ring Circus: The Olympics Soccer Thread

    It was a soccer event in Montpelier VT. I don't remember who asked the question but she did find it amusing and gave up that nugget somewhat sheepishly.

    Saw Kristine Lilly talk with my daughter back in 2018 and she said the Brazilian team was the one that most embellished injuries in order to draw calls. Seems like things haven't changed.

    The decision of the second attacker to pass the ball rather with her head than trying to score on her own showed a lot of composure there, I thought.

    Jrue looking like the MVP so far, and how was that not an up and down travel on LeBron?

    Very entertaining game. Sophia had a couple of chances to seal the deal which would have reduced overall anxiety.

    Horan has seemed a bit off today. The offense looks like they are panicking when they get their rare opportunities. Hopefully that will normalize in the second half. Definitely a dangerous matchup and a worrisome half.
