  1. IIRC...The AHL has a streaming service that allows you to buy full access/full access to "your" team or single games only. If they can do it...the NHL should be able to
  2. Cossa nd Lethemon continue to backstop a red hot Toledo team. Cossa turned away 55 of 57 shots this weekend and Lethemon turned in a shutout. Toledo has won 8 straight
  3. This Fran Tarkenton talk reminds me of the days when Justin Fields was Bobby Douglass
  4. Sometimes I use my left hand...it feels like I'm cheating.
  5. Arianna Grande is a doughnut licking skank..
  6. I listened to 3WE out of Cleveland a lot when I was in HS. Pete Franklin was entertainingly obnoxious to 16 year-old me
  7. How is Miller not an accessory to murder...he provided the weapon. Did he think the guy was going out deer hunting?
  8. I know none of those details...I had it for a month or so...got rid of it because I wasn't watching as much as I thought I would. But with the Wings in the playoff hunt...I'll probably revisit it.
  9. Bally just sent me a "please come back" email. They'll take $5 off a month...since there's no long term commitment, I think I'm back in. It's not like I'm fronting them for a year while they're literally going bankrupt
  10. I've been a fan of pro wrestling since I was a kid (don't judge me). In the pre internet days, WFAN in New York had an hour of wrestling news on at like 2AM Sundays. It was the only source of wrestling news out there that I knew of. I would often tune in on my way home form the bars/girlfriend's house. We were in a collective tizzy when the rumor that Ric Flair was in Toronto for Wrestlemania in 1990...was he leaving WCW for the WWF? Good times....
  11. If he had worked harder at 30...he probably wouldn't look like that today. It seems like he didn't take conditioning and training seriously until he started having health issues
  12. Without looking...I'm going to guess that the pre merger 60 wins seasons involved Wilt and/or Kareem
  13. This amused the hell out of me...
  14. When we first got cable in my part of Wood county in NW Ohio..it was on a small system locally owned in Waterville. The people running it would do some interesting things like running PPV fights on one of the unused channels deep on the box, or running multiple feeds of stations like USA when they had MLB so you could see a lot of out of market games. Then we had lightning strike the system and it blew up our TV's, so we got rid of it.
  15. In the 70's...you had 18 teams prior to the ABA folding. That took the league to 22, but also created an influx of talent. The ABA had a lot of talented forwards and guards...maybe more so than the NBA at that point. As a result, you had a lot of very closely matched teams...a lack of meaningful FA movement prevented teams from building a Super Team. The talent was distributed more evenly and there really wasn't a mechanism in place to allow teams to build other than through the draft and trades. Look at how long it took to build the Bad Boys. The foundation was built in 81-83, but they didn't have all the pieces to actually contend until 86-87 and then it took a couple more years of tinkering to get over the top.
  16. Pre ESPN, the sports final edition from 11:15 PM to 11:30 PM on WJR was the gold standard for sports news
  17. Cossa's partner in Toledo..former Spartan John Lethemon ...has been insanely good at Toledo this year. 14-1-3 record. 2.13 GAA with a .924 save%. He's 26...probably not an NHL prospect at this point, but he's certainly earned a look in the AHL
  18. I don't stray too far north of 50...so I can't say
  19. Perhaps the debate will shift from the feasibility of robot umpires towards the need for robot pitching
  20. Cossa stops 28 for his 2nd straight shutout....has a 2.73 GA and.90 save %. Started slowly at Toledo but has come on lately
  21. I can pick it up in my car in SW Monroe county unti! I cross Jack man heading east...but that's in my car. And I'm out in the sticks. I lose 97.1 somewhere south of the state line.
  22. They aren't on 96.1 out of Archbold any longer?
  23. Steve Carlton's personal catcher...and a pretty decent hitter for catcher
  24. Throwing runners out there goes against the internal nature of the game...there is no defined end time to a game...in theory it could go on infinitely...the foul lines are just that..lines. Not line segments but lines...they extend infinitely...even beyond the stadium. George Carlin did a bit on this decades ago just randomly throwing a runner out there because the game is tied? What's next...trap doors in the outfield that swallow the CF at random intervals?
  25. Damn rich people and their yachts....
