    NBA Standings Watch

    It does revert to the two team tie breaker. However, since the C's and Bucks are tied head-to-head and against teams in own conference, the determining factor is record against east playoff teams.

    2022 NFL Announcing Changes

    I’m still impressed by when Tirico filled in as both play by play and color guy—on the fly—during the gold medal basketball game, after NBC lost the arena audio feed.

    The Last Dance

    In case anyone needs more Rodzilla. Rodman and Malone wrestled later that summer and were actually really good in the ring. View: https://youtu.be/EYSyHdeG5wY

    Kraft One-Ups Brady’s Departure

    That's a good point. However, after some amateur lip-reading it looks like "sixth" could have been dubbed over him saying "fifth." They also could have recorded multiple versions, given the not insignificant chance that Brady would pick up another ring before the show debuted. I may just have...

    Kraft One-Ups Brady’s Departure

    I’d bet this was filmed last year. It’s from the first episode of the Netflix show ”Living with Yourself.” In it, Paul Rudd’s character goes to the spa to get a clone made of himself that is a better version of himself. The original, intended joke is not as funny. I bet the showrunners were...

    2019 AB Watch: Legal & Exemption List Posts Only

    I hate to knee-jerk but I'm out on AB. He got a clean slate when he arrived in NE and it's no longer clean. Get whatever ducks in a row are needed to void his contract.

    Concussion Water - Tom Brady approved snake oil

    I wonder if being investigated by the honorable commissioner Goodell and the impartial coverage of said matter by ESPN has made Brady a little more cynical about corporate motives and the received wisdom of powerful institutions.   I could quite easily see how the events of this past year would...

    #DFG: Canceling the Noise

    I think this Mara stuff was leaked not by Brady or by Goodell, but a faction of owners that no longer support Goodell. The way you convince the rest of your colleagues to get rid of Roger is by showing them he can no longer protect them from flak.

    So true. This is, in two sentences, why the other 31 owners should want him gone.

    #DFG: Canceling the Noise

    Isn't that official that was stealing balls likely responsible for giving the Ravens a new K ball in the division game? You know, which actually was what led to the Ravens coach warning the Colts in the first place.   Without that asshole, none of this even gets started.

    From Wikipedia: "On December 28, 2014, [Ron] Wolf joined Charley Casserly as a consultant for the New York Jets in their search for a new head coach and general manager, following the firing of Rex Ryan and John Idzik."

    #DFG: Canceling the Noise

      I think it was pretty obvious that the NFL was trying to get Brady to say he likes the footballs on the low end and Tom Brady was coached not to give them a statement that could be used out of context. It doesn't matter why he wants them at 12.5, since that's the low end of the legal limit and...

    #DFG: Canceling the Noise

    Over the last week most of New England rallied behind the Patriots. That's all gone now. The NFL put him in this position but Kraft just screwed himself badly.   It's one thing to release a statement that you won't appeal given how hard it would be to win, but to go up there and say you respect...

    At bottom, Kraft chose his fellow owners over Patriots fans. It makes me sick that the league put him in this position, but if he's out on us, I'm out as well.   I hope Belichick leaves to coach at Navy. I'll watch them religiously.

      And everyone who thinks Goodell got it right is either insane or not familiar enough with the details of the investigation.   This is why the relatively simple step of making sure the owners get an impartial legal perspective on the horseshit Wells document is so important. The owners almost...

    If I were Kraft, I would ask that the other owners have their in-house counsel review the Wells report and the published Patriots documents ahead of this week's owners meetings. A quick brief on how outrageous this whole thing is from an informed third party could really help the discourse about...

    I know several of you have critiqued the Exponent data already but this is a nice, easy to read breakdown that could use a signal boost. The logical fallacy used for the logo gauge vs non logo gauge assumption is particularly horrifying. If the investigators trusted Walt Anderson's memory...
