Puttin’ on the foil, coach. Every game.

“People live long, healthy lives”

This is a story that I don’t know if you can fully understand unless you’re a parent. Sure, you can have empathy, but how horrible I think this would be now compared to before my son was born has changed dramatically.

Honest question: Why not shoot underhand at that point? Is it really more embarrassing to look a little dumb and make some shots than it is to go 2 for 12 and get laughed at like you’re Dave Chappelle??? Seriously, my 6-year-old nephew could do better than 2 for 12 shooting underhanded.

That bat flip might be my favorite Phillies moment in the last five years.

The sad thing about this (other than the obvious terribleness of it all) is that there is an NFL scout somewhere getting hard about how this will increase his team’s ROI, because now they can get him in the 7th round instead of the 2nd. People are fucking terrible.

“The MSM is treating Bucknor horrible. Just terrible. Bunch of globablist cucks just trying to keep the man down. He’s a great umpire. Maybe the best. Sad!”

I can explain goaltender interference in one simple sentence:

“As if I could hate Dan Snyder any more...”

In one game they were outshot by 1 in the other outshot by 2, that’s a little disingenuous especially considering on the series the Caps have had more shot attempts total. Faceoffs for the series are 44-55%, which is hardly a remarkable rate and which is almost entirely attributable to Game 2.

I agree that Washington has been the better team in this series (statistically and eyeball test), but Toronto is a dangerous team, which duh. They are so stacked with young talent it’s ridiculous and if they get even a whiff of confidence, I wouldn’t be clamoring to face them in the next round.

I could watch that highlight on loop for the better part of my morning.

As someone who played hockey at a somewhat competitive level, the thing that amazes me most about the NHL is the percentage of passes that are in the air. I think that is something that most casual observers miss, and it is probably one of the most impressive parts of the game.

Closest I’ve been to personally seeing this type of unbridled sports joy was storming the field for the Penn State upset of Ohio State last year and that was tame in comparison.

I don’t know how to put it other than that fastball looks... weird.

Could Mike Trout hack it in Philadelphia? More after these messages.

Fine. I’ll be the highlight truther. He uses two hands to make the move, but finishes with one.

Telvin Smith just earned himself a fan.
