when he first started getting buzz about 7-8 years ago I remembered him from the show and how much I hated that subplot

also spelling his first name with two "e"s bugged me too

took me a long time to get over Chalamet hate having been first exposed to him in HOMELAND

was close to a deal with the Blue Jays but did not want to have to change his name to Zac 3.8 Litres
BREAKING: RHP Zac Gallen and the Arizona Diamondbacks are nearing an agreement on a free agent contract, according to sources.

what I think of when I think of an ump challenging himself mid-game

Seems like every time the last couple of years I tune in to a UF baseball game it's 7-7

Nice to see Tom Wilson is in the Olympic spirit injuring opposing players

could never get past his name as it sounds like a knockoff version of Malkin

Her entire tenure has been a sham, all she cares about is whatever can comforter

Schmid was awful on the McDavid goal but made an incredible save on Crosby so who knows

Sacre bleu! France scores three straight goals to take a shock 3-2 lead over the Czechs, who are not having a good tournament

he should be legally required to add "-ty" to his last name
February 13, 2026 at 3:09 PM
at least she didn't treat him like one of her dogs

Finally watched CAUGHT STEALING. Loads of fun, if dark, and a movie set in 1998 that feels like it came out in 1998.

I appreciated the accurate depiction of the Giants' run at the 1998 NL Wild Card and of course Bud the cat stole the film.

Gonna guess she’s snorted cocaine off a toilet seat too

then again we're talking only a few top club teams (Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern, City, PSG) as well
February 13, 2026 at 1:13 AM
yes and no

the best club teams would probably beat the best international teams but mainly as a result of playing together (and assuming you could clone the international players)

I think a few national sides (France, England, Brazil, Argentina) are as good/better as the best club teams though

USA finally scores a goal acceptable to Latvia
February 12, 2026 at 9:28 PM
And now an assist for Stachowiak on Stutzle’s goal that put the Germans ahead
February 12, 2026 at 9:12 PM
Apparently every USA goal
Is going to be an international incident
February 12, 2026 at 8:39 PM
Glad to see the USA ahead but my dream of them winning the gold while the Tkachuk brothers go scoreless is over
