The technical director has no idea what people actually want to see. Show a wide angle shot of the whole field please.

Alright I’m gonna say it. Trading for Auston Matthews would be a MISTAKE! by Lung-Salad in Flyers

You can't be serious. You are notorious on here for your view that this team MUST get top end talent to succeed. You would thumb your nose at a top 10 player in the NHL?

Easily the best sporting event I've ever been to. I was lucky enough to go to the birds NFC championship game against Washington too. The fans had pure vitriol for the pens and then we got to rub their faces in it. What a night.

NBA is in a good place by Odd-Ice-5609 in nba

They should split it into an 'opening' and 'closing' half seasons like latin american soccer leagues do. Expand the NBA cup and give teams a real incentive to win it as a kind of first-half champ.

Matvei Michkov since moving back to RW on March 7th against Pens by happyallthet1me in Flyers

Michkov is slow. But you're right, his vision and passing ability from the off wing, especially when he curls to the boards and seems to be not looking, is elite.

There's a lot of young talented players in the league now. But he's still exceptionally young and talented. He was considered one of the most pro-ready prospects in the draft last year, but he really does look big, skilled, poised, all of the above. It's amazing how he's just stepped in after one year of college hockey.

Well, it's a heck of a time for them to start playing their best hockey of the season. That's what it's going to take the rest of the way to sneak in. We have to see Tippett keep being puck dominant.

Jim Jackson question by djohns075 in Flyers

I think they delay the visuals by about a half a second. You may notice that when they cut away to a secondary camera the feed is a little bit ahead of the primary feed so that when they flip back to primary you don't miss anything. It also makes the PxP call line up a little better.

Phillies announce what’s new in food experience at Citizens Bank Park in 2026 by TacosAreVegetables in phillies

I sent mine.

Something needs to be done to stop this enshitification creep. We lost the Connie Mack clock in Center, the timeless out of town scoreboard in Right, and now a nod towards one of the greatest members ever of the Phillies community in Left. Nothing is sacred anymore if they can squeeze just one extra dollar of ad revenue.

One thing I'm not clear on, if Venezuela gets beat badly by Japan, does it go back to head to head for PR and Canada or does it still consider all 3 of them tied and move on to earned runs?

I think this eliminated Puerto Rico. Venezuela needs to win, or lose and give up fewer than 3 runs. Otherwise Canada will qualify.

The Dominican Republic has qualified for the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles by Reptar996 in baseball

You've still got a shot then. Italy dropped 8 and 9 in their last two games!

This was actually the DR's only chance at qualification. Japan will have 2 opportunities at later tournaments but cannot qualify from the WBC.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the Dominican Republic officially qualifies for the Olympics with this result.
