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...

Well, yeah, I saw that, too. If Brandi Chastain didn't get yellow-carded, then neither should they.... A few things The second Brandi Chastain scored her goal, the game was over so who cares. Second, the rules have been changed over the past 20 years and excessive celebration for goal scoring is no...

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. In the 2 elections, the difference was about 27K voters (in 2018 general) to about 7K voters (in 2019 special election) in 1 district and 8,400 (in 2018...

No surprise. As soon as the US was eliminated last year by Trinidad and **** Tobago, a ratings disaster in the US for Fox was ensured. Even Telemundo is way down.

Portugal and Spain both draw in their respective games, meaning Spain finishes at the top of the group, Portugal second. Sets up a nice round of 16 game with Portugal (Ronaldo) taking on Uruguay (Suarez). Spain gets the easier road in the next round with host Russia on tap. Spain also got a better ...

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-...
