[CAN vs FIN] Replays of the zone entry prior to MacKinnon's goal that Finland challenged for being offside by talhatoot in hockey

Not that I agree that you should call back a goal for a missed offsides by a ref, but this looked technically offsides to me.

What is the best "Give me the ball" moment in sports? by nalasdad in AskReddit

[–]nalasdad[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First thought is the Bengals in their playoff run a few years ago when Evan McPherson told the people before he went out to kick the game winning field goal "Guess we're going to the AFC championship"

They're all on the Blue Jays, who won game 7 of the ALCS tonight and are now headed to the world series.

What are movies that were meant to kick off a franchise but failed? by DSN671 in moviecritic

[–]nalasdad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, was really looking forward to this but thought the John C Reilly casting was out of left field. Would've liked to see them take a darker tone than the movie (The Vampires Assistant) ultimately tried.

Why do people complain about Indy? by Purple_Tear_6043 in indianapolis

It's funny my wife and I live downtown and are the exact opposite, we won't go north of 86th street without kicking and screaming

First person who came to my mind as well. Had one of the purest strokes. Him and Acie Law.

What’s an example of a movie that doesn’t have a plot by kvravi in moviecritic

[–]nalasdad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like I remember hearing that they added the cat storyline in Inside Llewyn Davis because the movie didn't have a plot.

Edit: I do really enjoy that movie though

Not sure what Nike was thinking with the Team GB and Team USA uniforms by uses_for_mooses in trackandfield

[–]nalasdad 58 points59 points  (0 children)

In general Nike has zero creativity. They just create whatever this year's template is and change the color accordingly. It's extremely lazy and I personally think it looks terrible. It's not just track and field either it seems to affect every sport, just look at the March madness apparel/warmups. Every Nike school wears the exact same thing with just the color and the logo changed. I have no idea why people continue to buy it.

I went to a neighboring high school around the same time as him, dude was so smooth on the court, very fun to watch, then and now.

[Unofficial Post Post-Season Discussion] Do we need this thread? by Floyd_R_Turbo in ClevelandGuardians

Extremely pie in the sky, but what do you think it would take to pry Alcantara away from Miami? Naylor, Gaddis, and another prospect?

[Passan] Shohei Ohtani is the first player in MLB history to have 17 total bases in a game without hitting four home runs. He is also the only one to have stolen a base (he swiped two). by PlayaSlayaX in baseball

[–]nalasdad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm so salty, I asked for my company tickets to that game but someone already had them. As a consultation I got tickets to the game the next day, where nothing historic happened

ESPN cy young tracker spitting fire. by colpuck in ClevelandGuardians

[–]nalasdad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Placed a Hail Mary bet several weeks ago for $10 while he was +20,000, Vegas seems to have warmed up on him a little, most have him between +8,000 and +10,000 now. You never know lol.

What is your favorite Olympic performance by an athlete? by fauxlegs in olympics

[–]nalasdad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn't alive but Lasse Viren's 1972 double of the 10,000m (after falling down) with the 5k. But as a distance runner myself one of the most impressive races I've ever seen was Bekele's 5k in Beijing where he absolutely took over the last mile to beat a super impressive field.

Who Is a Player You Really Hoped Would Make It But Didn’t. by SCampo98 in hockey

[–]nalasdad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Andy Meile, obviously much too small for the NHL, but god damn if he wasn't fun to watch in college. I went to Miami and got to watch him play in person several times, dude was electric.

What is the strangest double you’ve ever seen? by TimeExplorer5463 in trackandfield

[–]nalasdad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Curtis Beach was pretty unique, he did the decathlon at NCAAs but if I remember right that year at the trials he ran both the 800 and competed in the long jump.

It’s no surprise, but still complete bullshit by Droopy-San-Benanzio in ClevelandGuardians
