The NBA Cup is nonsense.
As for the rest of the NBA, Oklahoma City is steamrolling teams in the West, the Celtics are again showing (despite these rankings) they're the best team in the East and my Cavaliers are 7-4 since that incredible 15-0 start. Best record in the NBA but beginning to worry...
I was saying the exact same thing (just get rid of it) to my friends in my LFC chat group. That was a horrific miss for the first call, and how in the world did they miss that blatant foul on the GWG. Really felt for you Villans after that. Half the time the VAR guys get it right, and half the...
The "too bad, so sad" part is what had me laughing.
Also, my friend pointed out to me that by claiming the trophy, Celtic moved ahead of Rangers in the all-time trophy count, 118 to 117.
And here are the tables after Matchday #6. Top 8 through to Round of 16, 9-24 into two-leg playoff, 25-36 completely out of Europe for the year. If you'd asked me which English sides would be where they are, the only one I would have predicted would've been Arsenal third. Liverpool and Villa are...
Today's results see Barca up to second with a 3-2 win over Dortmund, a comfortable win for Arsenal, and Lille is up to 8th by beating Sturm Graz. Meanwhile, Man City slumped to another defeat and are sitting 22nd. Their next match is in Paris vs. PSG, currently 25th and out of Europe. One win in...
NFL update through Week #14. Not at all sure how my Steelers are 10-3 at this point. Never saw this coming (was convinced they'd be sub-.500 for the first time in the Tomlin era). Instead, Arthur Smith has created the semblance of an actual above-average NFL offense, and their D is still their...
Losing Soto to their crosstown rivals hurts but the Yankees shored up their so-so starting pitching by adding All-Star Max Fried from the Braves on the largest deal ever given to a lefty: 8 years, $218 million...
Well, if you haven't heard, the New York Mets broke the bank to sign Juan Soto to a record deal: 15 years, $765 million. The $700 million deal Shohei Otani signed just last year has already been shattered. Going to make for an interesting off-season now that Soto has signed...
One tournament, two hemispheres, six nations. Welcome to World Cup 2030. The opening three matches in Uruguay, Paraguay and Argentina. The rest to be held in Spain, Portugal and Morocco! :oops:

First matches of Matchday #6 from December 10th
Pedestrian win for Liverpool to maintain the perfect start, on a PK by Mo Salah. Nice win for Villa after losing two one-goal leads, as they move to third currently. Leverkusen become the first side to score vs Inter to go second. And a big win...
And after five rounds, these are the top 8 who advance to the Round of 16 automatically
Those in positions 9-24 will play in two-leg knockout playoffs round. The top 8 from this are the home side in the second leg.
And finally, as of now, these 12 teams will not advance any further in...
The Pens' part? This team was in dire straits a few years ago and doubled down on the Jack Johnson error by bringing in Erik Karlsson. Tried to put a positive spin on it when it happened but as my more astute friends pointed out, it was always a disaster to hand that guy that deal. It's proven...

Mo Salah has spoken with the media three times since moving to Anfield in 2017: after getting his 40th goal in all competitions his first season, after winning the Champions League against Spurs, and Sunday after the match. And he chose to talk about his disappointment in his contract situation...
Final match of the weekend saw West Ham travel to St James and beat the Geordies 2-0. Tomas Soucek and Aaron Wan-Bissaka help the Hammers to a surprisingly convincing win.
Didn't see the Villa match (which I understand was a good one) but who'd'a thought the match of the weekend would've been Liverpool vs. Southampton? From up 1-0 to down 2-1, Mo Salah scored twice, the second from the penalty spot, to help the Reds beat the Saints 3-2. Some really good play from...
Gotta feel bad for the guy. He tried but couldn't connect with their fans. I heard they might be taking another run at Graham Potter. Good luck with that.
Winnipeg 4, Pittsburgh 1
Utah Hockey Club 6, Pittsburgh 1
Team has quit on Mike Sullivan. Sh**canning him won't do anything, but it's all but inevitable now.
