This will be the last story invoving rings and the Sixers for decades.

I think i’d be fine with with the Arizona Rattlesnakes.
But would it change your opinion if I told you they went by “D’backs”? And when the announcers say the name, it always sounds like “d-bags”.

Based on the comments I got, there are a lot of Marlin-defenders.
Sword-nose or not, it can never be cool or badass because…

And NBA are still the worst names. Over half are bad.
Magic is worse than Wizards.
Raptors are bad, but the Pelicans may be worse.
The fucking Heat. It’s not the Miami Fire, the team is named after a temperature. It could be the “Miami feeling that your house gets when you turn off your A/C and leave for a weekend”.
And…

Marlins. You just can’t name a team after a fish.
Diamondbacks, Raptors, and Marlins. The 90s was a bad time for team names.

Not “just” the bench. Gortat looked like he had never seen a basketball game before.

My problem is that we’ve gotten to a point where media outlets tend to make (usually) educated guesses on what is happening and why, and if the facts come out to support it, great. And if not, people will have forgotten.

I noticed that this was one of few responsible articles/posts i’ve read lately online, because they…

I dream of a world where people read an entire article instead of going fulle internet-rage based on a headline.

The “take” is fine. There is a lot of ring-psychology and selling that is lost in a lot of matches since the ECW/Hardys/TLC boom in high-spots around 2000.

It would work with almost any other messenger but Randy friggin Orton. He may be the worst “in-ring” wrestler WWE has sent out in 20 years. Definitely the worst…

Yep. It’s definitely going to be more like Romo, than Manning.
You don’t learn a new team/coach/players at the age of 41

Exactly. They’re not getting rid of Brady.
They’ve had an amazing run for 15 years, and you don’t fix something before it breaks. They are going to squeeze everything they can out of Bellichek & Brady, and when that’s done you can figure out if you’re rebuilding or tweaking the team and where you get your QB.

It’s not…

In hindsight, I bet Max wishes he pitched the 9th inning too.

I usually dislike a pitcher being stubborn like this.
But once you’re a 10 year veteran that has stayed relatively healthy pitching 30+ games every year, a 4-time All-star & 2-time Cy Young winner, I think you know your capabilities best.

“We’ve got a quote from Kelly Johnson. Does anyone know if he’s playing for the Mets? .... Anyone? .....”

Nope. This city knows nothing but sports disappointment.
Caps could lose in the final 2 seconds by accidentally kicking the puck into their own goal, and nobody would flinch.

I actually think “territories” is the way to go for a company to take over from TNA as the “WWE-alternative”

You make 4-5 sister regional companies, with their own rosters & fueds and occasional cross-company title matches. It could work similar to the multiple WWE shows/brands. Then the company could do s syndicated…

Live Look at Fenway Park:

“Hey, leave us out of this.”

People seem willing to accept the mystical/magic thing for Undertaker, and nobody else (early Mankind?). Bray would work better as a slightly unhinged, mentally unstable person rather than magical. These things always feel ridiculous and silly like the WCW Ultimate Warrior run.

The logo graphic looks like the title screen for a Nintendo 64 game.

I’m sure there is the exact same level of experience necessary for Quarter back and human wall.

There may be a curse with toppling the Nationals in the division.
The Braves went from 96 wins to a total rebuild in 2 years following their division title.
