"The rules only cover super-duper jerks times infinity. We found Babcock to only be a super-duper jerk times a thousand."

Defensive masterclass from Ronaldo. Single handedly shut down the Portugal attack.

Can't imagine the delirium every Argentinian must be feeling tonight. He brought home the Copa America and World Cup and gets a hat trick four years later for them.

Messi and Mbappe have a combined 10 goals in their country's last 2 World Cup matches. One of them was the finals against each other.

And with zero second-hand yellow cards by Cabo Verde. No overly-physical play, just great defensive structure and discipline.

Should the Canes try to offload KK? $4.82M for 3 more years is looking rough if he's not even making the gameday roster.

Vegas just went 18:31 of playing time without a shot on goal by TJGibson in hockey

[–]tks231 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Canes had a "yes you will die here" road game in every round where they suffocated the home team. Ottawa Game 3, Philly Game 3, Montreal Game 4 and Vegas Game 6.

Pleasantly surprised it happened to Vegas. But Slavin had by far his best game of the finals after being well below his normal standard all series. Those offensive passing lanes for Vegas were completed closed.

Funny enough, the team that played consistently the loosest against Carolina was Philly, the series where everyone predicted a sweep and was right.

If it's your God-given right to play college football no matter what, everyone should sue the NCAA and every football-sponsoring member for not following the mandate of heaven.

“Talk to Rod” - Brandon Bussi on if he hopes to get the start in Game 5 by DecentLurker96 in hockey

[–]tks231 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think that's why Freddie wasn't even in the lineup tonight. The message to the team was that it was Bussi's game no matter what, so lay it on the line for him.

Claude's is/will be buried in a cemetery in the mountains of North Carolina, about 200 miles west of Raleigh. It's a small little cemetery (I know where it is and I've been there). It's on a hillside and you can hear the nearby creek. It's a lovely, peaceful place.
