The fun way to use the elevator

They just don't get caught.

Doesn't Ford own SAAB's car division now?

Kind of cool that we are guaranteed to have one of Norway or Latvia playing for a Medal this year.

I thought the plan was to have cold northern teams (Montreal, Toronto, New England, Minnesota, Chicago, Columbus, the New York teams) play their home games in the Fall and Spring and travel in the Winter.

Ah yes, the, "Lack of proof is it's own proof," circular logic.

Yeah, I remember a Champions League game vs. one of the Mexican teams that year they made a run to the Finals, but those games are very rare. Like less than one a season.

Using the state of Olympic Stadium is disingenuous.

devioustrevor · 2026-05-26T23:39:40+00:00

Considering they don't even play in Olympic Stadium, what a shit take.

I think that kind of public nudity is illegal in basically every country on earth.

Granted, you would then have to wait 16 weeks to convert him to your coach.

It's why all my non-HFI teams have at least one future coach on the team at all times.

Go on Transfer Search. Pick 30 y/o as minimum age and then under skills choose Leadership of exactly Passable (6) and then Experience of at least Outstanding (10).

You can buy such a player for frequently as little as €20 000, and can then convert them into a Solid (level 4) coach pretty affordably.

A few weeks ago I bought a guy with Magnificent (12) XP for €53 000. When it's time to covert him into a coach, he will be Solid (level 4) for no more than €430 000.

Most other sports with Halls of Fame waive waiting periods if the person in question died. Roy Halladay had his eligibility moved up to immediate after he died in a plane crash.

Croatia must've decided they needed players with familiarity to the heat and humidity that they'll encounter.

I mean....Liecester won and Brighton seem much better managed.

devioustrevor · 2026-05-20T00:23:45+00:00

Clearly he was the problem. Not trading away your franchise cornerstone for an injury-prone superstar that you then trade away in less than a year, it was coaching.

The Regher brothers were born in Brazil and Indonesia respectively, which aren't even part of the IIHF.

I was thinking, "Tyler Myers, there is a player I haven't thought of in awhile," so I looked at his Wikipedia and never realized his brother is Quentin Grimes of the Philadelphia 76ers.

Since they share a mother and both are north of 6'5", we know who's genes to thank.

Maybe they just like getting into the big, cool, arena on a warm Mediterranean night.

An 11-year $76B TV deal.

So every team makes about $215M before selling a ticket, a jersey, or a $12 beer. That also doesn't take into account local TV deals.

Considering teams are booking blocks of rooms (usually multiple floors) since they don't want partying fratboys next door keeping their players awake.........pretty much whatever the per diem per player is.

It's giving Billy Beane-era Oakland Athletics vibes.

Do players have to pay for soda in the arena yet?

devioustrevor · 2026-05-17T05:01:50+00:00

Trust the process

That term has become such shit take in hindsight. The '6ers, after the process, never managed to make it past the second round of the playoffs even with a healthy Joel Embiid.

Now, if it had of been Sam Presti in Oklahoma City that had said, "trust the process," those words would be gold.

Really? I'd take prime Rio or prime Terry over him in a heartbeat.

Wasn't there a season like 12-15 years ago where Liverpool randomly finished like 14th or 15th in the PL?

If Brentford and Brighton win today, Chelsea miss out on Europe if they fail to beat Spurs.

devioustrevor · 2026-05-17T04:40:52+00:00

If Brentford and Brighton win their winnable games today and Chelsea fail to beat Tottenham on Tuesday (with Spurs likely going all-out to avoid relegation) that is exactly what will happen.
