Re: Beli-Cheat Exploits Loophole...

Want to say that both the Jets and Pats were happy to let the clock run down in that game.

Re: 2019 MLB World Series

Question: Are we going to see a reversion to the old formula of starting one's ace in Games 1, 4, and 7? Or is that yet another thing for the trash heap like complete games and stealing bases and hit-and-run attacks? I would bet that the Nats (unless down 3-0) are going with Scherzer, Strasburg, Co...

Re: Kipchoge Breaks Time Barrier

There is a difference between what Bannister did and what Kipchoge did this time though. With Bannister, the pacers started at the same time he did and did not rotate on and off the track which would be a huge advantage. (Where do you see that it was not a world record for Bannister. It says here h...

Re: Kipchoge Breaks Time Barrier

So they set up a course specifically to aid in breaking the 2 hour mark and allowed 41 pacesetters to pre-station themselves around the course? That's quite lame. Hopefully somebody can do it legitimately some day. Roger Bannister used pacesetters when he first broke the 4 minute mile. It's just th...

Re: 2019 Official Baseball Season Thread

Hudson comes in in the bottom of the 6th with runners on 1st and 3rd and one out. Gets out of it with a K and a 4-3 groundout. Nats tie it up at 5 in the top of the 7th...........then Wander Suero blows it. Nats lose 7-5. :ohno: Good shutout win over Giants last night, but Nats are slipping again. ...

Re: GOP flips two CT State Legislature Seats - Blip or 2020 Preview

Definitely not a good sign for Dems but never like to use special elections as a sign of things to come because a lot fewer of the electorate vote.

According to ESPN, attendance was 18,506 and capacity is 18,398 so they sold out. Always a few people who don't show (or are in the bathroom when people look at seats)

Portugal and Spain both draw in their respective games, meaning Spain finishes at the top of the group, Portugal second.

Re: 2018 NHL Thread

Great win by the Caps 6-2. If Caps can stay out of the penalty box in Game 5 (and survives the first 5 minutes or so), they should win. They are just the better team. Very dirty end to the game by Vegas. The NHL doesn't have the guts to do it but McNabb should be suspended for Game 5 for that cross-...
