    Yeah, I think the premise that they're the [insert power 5 school nickname] of college hockey is the issue. Denver's really more like a Villanova or Gonzaga just with more national titles. They're phenomenal at one sport but not at all present in the top levels of D1 at anything else

    Hey now, they're also great at lacrosse!

     

    But otherwise yes, rest of your point sums it up

  2. I think it's way less Sun Belt than the fact the Canes' franchise is terminally online. Lightning fans were always fun and respectful to interact with those playoff series, Panthers are fun, Preds have the closest thing to an NCAA atmosphere in the NHL, Stars I guess I have the fortune of them failing at their attempts to make viral tweets, etc. The Canes are at the point where I saw the tweets last night and thought to myself "great, they're going to make a ton of t-shirts over a series they should win in no more than 6 to begin with."

     

    As for last night, yeah, I saw that coming from a mile away given how the Isles can't hold a 2 goal lead if their lives depended on it and they had about 8 2 minute defensive shifts in the 2nd period alone. It's becoming more and more performance art at this point to the point I'm numb to it. Do it in front of 80,000 at MetLife against your biggest rivals so what's doing it again come playoff time?

  3. Broncos didn't completely butcher things like it was going to look like this past week. I'd say slight downgrade, but this could've been way way worse. Jets look fantastic, Lions do too above the waist, so it looks like we're going to ruin the good offseason of uniform changes by saving the absolute trainwreck for last with the Texans, which you're all going to be sorry for wanting them to change

  4. Maryland-Syracuse had extremely lofty expectations heading into it given the Orange have been off the grid the past two seasons, but boy did that ever live up to the hype. Leave it to Bill Tierney to still tick it to Cuse in retirement with the goal mouth rule, though

    Convinced that Rob Manfred was the victim/champion of some recruiter's error, and that he was meant to be the CEO of a small-time hospital group or pamphlet-printing agency, and he had never heard of Major League Baseball until now. He's been faking his way through ever since.

    (Do also note which other commish went there)

    Not gonna share the details, but some of them online mania surrounding the implications of this Super Bowl and Taylor Swift have me rooting for the Chiefs.

    On one hand, sure

     

    On the other, the amount of the Sports Blogosphere going from pretending to be die-hard Philadelphia sports fans last year to 12 months later going full on Chiefs fans because of Taylor Swift making the worst people on social media annoyed is giving me whiplash.

  7. That may also explain why it was impossible to find a new Dri-Fit t-shirt over the holiday season. Even though I'm one of the few who find the current look to be decent, the 80s look will be a great look and be well received by the fanbase.

    To JG9's credit, he has a great idea for a YouTube channel, but, and this kinda tells you he has no real broadcasting experience, his videos would be way better if he had the first idea how to edit himself. If he had any practical experience, his videos would be six minutes long and his subscriber base would probably double as a result.

    Yeah that's the thing I see whenever one of his videos pop up on my recommended feed on YouTube. He's got some interesting ideas but he takes way too long to set up the point and it's 7 and a half minutes in and you're still waiting to get to the fireworks factory

  9. I said it on the site formerly known as Twitter, but the Texans are gonna make a very big mistake going away from this set and they're going to go the Minnesota Wild route of trying to chase back to what they got right from the word go afterwards

  11. Surprised we made it this long without much in terms of Stadium Series leaks. Was at two games over my Christmas break and the Devils' store really only had that standalone black NJ on a foam finger and the Islanders have absolutely nothing that would lead you into the direction of their look
