Me too. This got me going.

Most of you won’t be familiar with this legendary Canucks broadcaster who died today. He did do late night games on Hockey Night in Canada and called Bobby Nystrom’s overtime goal on CBS for their first Stanley Cup. But the final minute of this game is one of hockey’s great calls. It was our 2nd year in Vancouver and I got wrapped up in that run even though I’m not a Canucks fan.

Has he been gone so long that the anchor on WDIV’s 5 o’clock news just pronounced it Ver-LAN-der not VER-lan-der?

The former maybe, but surely not the latter? Or do you just mean writing off Jobe for ‘26?

Strong words from the family about CTE and how in their view “the NFL was ultimately the cause of his untimely demise”. Yes, I’m not a fan of sourcing TMZ but it posted the statement unlike some other outlets

Seider is Germany's alternate captain. I don't know if that means he wears an A on his jersey or something weird like Ä or ß.

I was hoping to hear some classical music at yesterday's Super Bowl halftime show.

On September 15, 2025 with just under 2 weeks to go in the regular season the Tigers' record was 85-65. The Dodgers' record that day? 84-65.

That would be a great idea for all sports, and what I envisioned when people talked about Pay Per View 20 years ago. As far as I know, NBA.com is the only major pro sports league I know that offers a la carte single game purchases (albeit for considerably more than $1)

This was about as exciting as the Olympic men’s cross country 10km + 10km skiathlon.

I have a hard time getting excited about the Super Bowl in years the Lions aren't in it.
