  1. Who's the Rasputin in that scenario, Texans have Easterby for that job.
  2. Rams have yet to not play like ass for at least one quarter; they get their together for a full game, they can and will beat anyone. That said, they just survived the biggest single outburst of Touchdown Tom playoff devil magic since 28-3, if not period, so.....
  3. Grand Canyon's the wrong flavor of Christian for the WCC, probably. (Also there are still aspects of their academic profile that could scare off WCC presidents *cough*kinda sorta still for-profit*cough*)
  4. We're all on to Bills-Chiefs rightly, but holy crap the Rams beat playoff Tom Brady, in a game where the full array of Brady devil magic was on display. So happy right now.
  5. Hot take: Baseball postseason is a giant plinko game anyway, so why should we care so much about it when evaluating individual performances.
  6. (Sarcasm) Western Illinois is totally a Chicago school.
  7. $37 million for complete anonymity and the chance to play a sport? man sign me up for that; I can buy a jeweler with the change in my couch cushions if I want a ring.
  8. West Coast expansion in 1967 was motivated by concerns about the ultimate goals and intentions of the Western Hockey League; much as with the Dodgers and Giants' moves in the 50s killshotting the Pacific Coast League's major league ambitions, setting up shop in LA and San Francisco put an end to any major league aspirations for the Western League.
  9. My working theory has been that the Rams figured that all they needed to do was get into the playoffs, so why not spend the regular season ing around and seeing what works and what doesn't work. Tonight may have seen some of the fruit of that approach.
  10. As long as this foolishness continues, Monday is going to be a 4-5 matchup probably to make sure there's no impact on divisional round scheduling.
  11. I'm sorry Pat Shurmur is WHAT?! Dude's an idiot and it is mindblowing he can still find work in the NFL.
  12. Game 256 272 being a full on Disgrace of Gijon scenario would be my everything, it needs to happen.
  13. The one enjoyable thing for sure from 2021 in sports for me has been the Rams functionally killshotting the Pete Carroll and Russ Wilson era in Seattle over their 3 games this calendar year. That is nice.
  14. In fairness to Seattle, Chicago has lost 7 of their last 8 and is definitely giving off the vibe of a team that is merely playing out the string with their dead coach walking. Also they play on Monday this week anyway.
  15. Probably very hard actually between installing the ice plant and ripping up the floor to install the rink (typically courts are laid down on the ice.
  16. They had an ABA team that was pretty successful on the court there, and sufficiently successful off the court that they were able to make it work until the collapse of the ABA's western flank (and the owner's other businesses failing) in the final season; St. Louis was even going to move there under a "Utah Rockies" moniker had there been a year 10 for the ABA.
  17. Good win for the Rams, but it bodes ill for the future that teams know they can convert an onside kick any time they want to against this team.
  18. Also, you're trying to make 3 home arenas with less than 6500 capacities work in what I am informed is still a gate-driven league. Bigger clownshow than the last couple of years of the Virginia Squires in the old ABA. Trying really hard to see how this isn't a nakedly bad faith attempt to drive down league revenues for revenue-sharing and salary cap purposes.
  19. HFboards got really high on Chase Field earlier this week. Yes, the baseball stadium. Send help.
  20. Also time isn't a factor because most Detroit fans don't live in the Eastern Time Zone.
