This is from WBAL’s Pete Gilbert. Looks like media—from all over, including China—used 92 seats in the press box.

Sounds kind of like a locker room distraction!

Also, to all the people commenting the same thing...I’m well aware of the tradition and history and all that. I’m also aware of how it looks when you flip on the TV and an entire crowd decked out in a color is cheering specifically *against* the players wearing that *same* color. Oh well. Don’t have to worry about it…

My favorite part of the series...when Winnipeg organized a white-out for Game 3 to cheer on the team in the blue sweaters.

It was worth it just to see how Connor McDavid would look as a judge read his triple murder guilty verdict aloud.

He looked your dead boy in the face.

Hey remember two years ago when the Blues didn't do the fly-by because they "chose class?"

And he really seemed to get more comfortable as he went on. Good sign.

"You write dozens of posts slamming every popular restaurant, food or beer on the planet."

Those are incredible. This is one of my favorites, from Georgia football during wartime.

I know nobody will ever see this, but it bothered/bothers me a lot that Thin Lizzy used "female" so damn often.

Kyle Wagner already wrote the post that it's happening.

The gold standard for "lots of fucks" in a fiery locker room speech.

WE GET IT, IT'S GOOD

The women's college game does that. If a coach calls a timeout within 30 seconds of the 16-12-8-4-minute media (or anytime after), that becomes the media timeout.

This has forever changed the song for me, for better.

That makes sense.

Jeez. And I don't mean to be dense, but all this over the past couple of weeks happened because of Hannibal Burress, right? Or was there another impetus that I missed?
