Slavin is about as good of a dude as you’ll find in the NHL. It’s an honor for any athlete to represent their country, win a gold medal, and meet the POTUS.

No more 1-and-1 free throws in men’s college basketball. 2 shots once you get to the bonus. I can’t stand it when my team gets into the bonus and it actually feels like a bad thing when we draw a foul, because the missed front end of a 1-1 is essentially the same thing as a turnover.

I think you mean Finland and not Sweden. But yes, fair to say that from the USA perspective it was a gold medal game. But it was not a true gold medal game. That’s crazy. I always knew us against the Soviets was not for the gold, but I absolutely thought it was a semifinal! Thanks for...

Wow, thanks for sharing, I stand corrected. I just got done watching the new Netflix documentary about the Miracle on Ice and they sure made it seem like the game against Finland was a “gold medal game”

Silver is a lot more of a thrill in sports where there isn’t a final game where winner gets gold, loser gets silver. If you’re just in a 20 person field of people doing the luge and you come in 2nd, that’s a lot different feeling than losing a gold medal hockey or basketball game.

It was round robin until the medal round. Then it was 4 team, single elimination. We beat Russians in the semis and Finland for the gold. Last two games were not part of the round robin.

I was in 6th grade at the time. Word was spreading through the school about what was happening, but students and teachers alike were a little confused. Then my dad showed up and got me out of school for early dismissal. I got home and just sat on the couch beside both of my parents and watched...

President Trump confirmed on Truth Social that Kirk has passed. Leaves behind wife and two kids. 31 years old.

Literally no one makes any statements like “those kids are pieces of shit, but they didn’t deserve to be shot” comments after kids get shot in school shootings. Universal horror whenever innocent kids are shot.

Holy shit. Absolutely disgusting.

I think it’s a big leap to say that Richmond is a good bit better than Charlotte. At best you can probably make the case they’re “as good as” Charlotte, a team we just beat 20-3 on the road in the biggest on campus sporting event in Charlotte’s school history. I can buy Sagarin’s 88% but I...

If you really think we should change it to 0.90 instead of 0.98 that’s fine. It’s at least 90% likely to be a win.

He’s being paid $1 million this year per Ben Sherman’s reporting. Your point still stands but just wanted to set it straight what we paid him. Originally it was reported 2 years at $2 million per year, but that was overstated.

At least not yet. The freshmen, like the whole team, will get more and more comfortable in practice each week. The offensive line will also get healthier. I can see a path where Baker is ready to start @ Cal or something coming off a bye week on October 17th, with Blaske and Christo Kelly both...
