TrueYankee26 Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 Last time Knicks and Maple Leafs won a playoff series in the same year: 2000. Took almost a quarter-century for those 2 to win a playoff series in the same year for the 1st time in the 21st Century 1 Quote trueyankee26.wordpress.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueYankee26 Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 People born starting on June 10, 1993 have only seen Canadian based teams win the World Series and NBA Finals, no Stanley Cups. People who will turn 30 have never seen Canada lift the Cup. Ouch! In fact if you were born on May 25, 1990 or later you have not seen a team from English-speaking Canada win the Stanley Cup. 2 Quote trueyankee26.wordpress.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCMODS Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Something random: Denver could play Miami in the NBA finals 30 years (1993) after both cities' MLB franchises began play (Rockies & Marlins). 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just thinking how the Colorado Avalanche and Florida Panthers played for the Cup Colorado's first season. Broncos and Dolphins can't in the NFL, but for as successful as they've been making the Super Bowl never faced off in either the AFL or AFC Championship Game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCMODS Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Miami owns Boston this year.

SpidersReorg Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 I made a list of every NFL team's playoff game-starting quarterbacks. That's how I learned these two facts: 1. The Panthers have had the fewest playoff game-starting quarterbacks with only 3 (Collins, Delhomme, and Newton). 2. The Vikings have had the most playoff game-starting quarterbacks with a whopping 19 (Kapp, Cuozzo, Lee, Tarkenton, Kramer, Wilson, Salisbury, McMahon, Moon, Johnson, Cunningham, George, Culpepper, Jackson, Favre, Webb, Bridgewater, Keenum, and Cousins).

You speak this, but it ain't over until it's over in the Heat-Celtics series. The Celtics have a long road ahead of them, but these past two games have proved we may see AT LEAST a Game 7.
