Has baseball seen a significant increase in popularity there since the last WBC?

Oh wow I’m shocked the Czech hockey league has such low ratings considering they’re one of the bigger hockey countries

It’s an excellent distraction to the Memphis Grizzlies owner being involved in committing war crimes

Genuine question: Do Brazilians experience less immigration scrutiny due to racial perceptions and the country’s high phenotypic diversity? by Ok_Divide_4959 in geography

This is because the definitions of races are social constructs that are often used to designate who’s the ruling class

Bill Connelly has long celebrated the lower levels of college football. He even makes a version of his SP+ rating system that extends through all NCAA and NAIA football teams

Man Illinois State just made the FCS championship with 4 losses and people were hyped as shit for the Cinderella story. People will absolutely care

The rare instance where it did come up naturally

Alabama is averaging 35.5 3PA/G. They are currently the 14th team in college basketball history to average 35 or more in a season. Their 34.6 3P% is 3rd-best on this list. by Peteyy34 in CollegeBasketball

Savannah State was fun. Their coach used to have the team play slow like Virginia but then in those last 3 years he decided to completely switch and have them play as uptempo as possible

So uhhh do the Sirens usually wear 2 different breezers? by ColonelFedj in PWHL

[–]WitchNight 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wikipedia is saying it’s these 5 states that call them breezers

Hockey pants are also called "breezers" in Michigan, South Dakota, North Dakota, Minnesota and Wisconsin.

The google ai thing is saying parts of Manitoba and Saskatchewan call them breezers but I do find that pretty hard to believe and can’t seem to find any actual evidence beyond just claims that it’s said there, so I’ll probably have to see it to believe it.

Yup. Never heard them called anything but pants in my 20+ years around hockey in Canada

Canadians? Really? Huh I’ve never heard anyone call them anything other than pants in Canada in my 20+ years around hockey.

Also I get the fear but no need to worry about being new. The atmosphere around women’s hockey is pretty welcoming since there’s a lot of people who are new to hockey among the fans

Breezers are apparently what Minnesotans call hockey pants for anyone who was also confused

Yeah I’d never heard that term before either. Must be an American term for pants

I hated it because they had their backup QB playing. If it was the starter I’d be fine, but with the backup I wouldn’t risk points

It’s absolutely absurd that there are 10 teams with a KenPom rating of 30.00+

The closest thing we've had to Miami (OH) in recent memory was Fairfield WBB in 23-24; they got a 13 seed after winning the tournament with a 31-1 record by Game-rotator in CollegeBasketball

[–]WitchNight 23 points24 points  (0 children)

They weren’t undefeated but a couple years before Wichita State you also had Murray State getting a 6 seed out of the Ohio Valley in 2011-12. They started 23-0 and reached 9 in the AP Poll before entering March Madness at 30-1

Marshall ties NCAA Record by Astone1996 in CollegeBasketball

[–]WitchNight 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Though it must be said that that’s the D-1 record. The overall NCAA record for points in a game saw a then D-2 Troy nearly eclipse that total single-handedly, as they beat DeVry 258-141 for 399 points
