Looks like a crazy ass game but I'm sure it is. Good luck trying to start a club though.

Damn that was a hell of a upset and blowout by UMBC on Virginia. They fucked up a lot of people’s brackets.

Top dude on the ESPN Bracket Challenge predicted every first round match-up correctly but missed one, and it wasn't even this game because he somehow figured the overall #1 was gonna contract ebola and get blown out by a team no one outside of Maryland have even heard of. Ain't that some shit?

A G-League (the former D-League) player collapsed on the court over the weekend and died today. Crazy stuff.

>Top two picks out for season before championship week begins in fantasy
>Third pick goes down with injury today
>mfw

Not expecting the Wizards to make it out of the first round against the Raptors but they gotta get a big name player to complement John Wall and Bradley Beal to make a championship caliber team,

>>29032
Yankees And Redsox brawled on the field folks
Shit was so cash

>>32133
I guess that makes the 2018 season officially underway!

>>32134

>Wears a Bears jersey on TV
>Wears a Cardinals jersey and throws out the first pitch in shithole St. Louis IRL

FRAUDE! FRAUDE!

>>32135
Well he's from St. Louis and they don't exactly have a football team any more, so.
Also, St. Louis is a shithole compared to where, fucking Chicago? Gimme a break dude.

>>32140

Entirety of shithole St. Louios could fit inside of Chicago and the rest of Chicago would still be better than St. Louis. Especially the north side, as much as the south siders hate to admit.

>>32130
I hope someone lights that fucker Marchand up, Marcus Johansson STILL hasn't come back since being concussed by that rat-faced pussy back in Jauary. And the league's never going to give him a serious suspension, it's honestly a joke at this point.

>>32131
Gonna be a tough road, Columbus might be the hottest team in the East in the last two or three weeks. Gonna be rooting for the Caps a bit unless them and the Devils make it to the ECF, always had a soft sport for em since they're my cousin's team.

>>32131

Caps break the curse and win the Cup the year you finally watch The Wire.

>>32136
lmfao

Oh god i'm having flashbacks to the Hawks-Preds series from last year

why did i choose this team for my eastern conference pick

>>32131

>drop the first two games of the series, both at home, to the fucking Blue Jackets
>in round one

>>32100

Great pick-up for the Vikings considering they lost both Keenum and Bridgewater and just had whatever's left of Bradford out back in a shed. He might regress in year 2 or 3 of that contract, but as a "win-now" mentality he's should be even better than Keenum was last year. Short of catastrophic injuries the Vikings have to be the favorites in the NFC North and to make the NFC Championship game again.

>>32101
I could see the NFC North being a bloodbath this year. Obviously the vikings are favorites, but I'm not so sure they'll be any better (or even as good) as they were last season. In my opinion I think the Packers have been making the right moves so far this offseason, and with a healthy Rodgers and new defensive scheme you don't have to be as biased as I am to think they have a very good chance of taking back the division title.

Then of course there's the Lions who look like they're one solid runningback away from being able to make a deep playoff run. As for the Bears I don't buy that Trubisky is the real deal and I'm convinced they're gonna be the only shitty team in the NFC North this season.

Fuck I miss Jordy so much already

>>32115

Bears and Lions will be the shits this year. Packers will likely compete for a Wild Card spot and finish 10-6 as long as Rodgers stays healthy. Vikings are legit scary for the first time in years, though. Even an MVP season by Rodgers won't be able to make up for the rest of his team being crap, but Rodgers is the best QB in the league so the Packers at least have a chance because of that.

>>32121
I wouldn't necessarily say the rest of the team was crap, Hundley just really was that atrocious of a QB. I think Pettine as the new DC will show that there is definitely talent on our defense that was being misused in Capers' scheme, which the game had clearly passed by long ago.

RG3 to the Ravens? Things really have come full circle for him.

MLS is officially expanding to Miami as well - https://www.mlssoccer.com/post/2018/01/29/its-official-major-league-soccer-awards-expansion-team-miami

>>31971

Hope the Miami franchise works out. Was listening to the DLS the other day and I didn't realize they've had so much trouble finding the right area for their stadium. As it stands now they might have to build it in a crappy suburb of Miami if they can't find a better area. It's gonna be wild seeing Messi play there in a few years, though.

>>31979
They're experiencing the same problems that the DC United were when they were trying to find a place to build their new stadium. Fortunately, they were able to build one in an underdeveloped neighborhood like Buzzard Point and right near Nationals Park that has helped to revitalize Navy Yard. Problem is that Miami's stadium location in Overtown is further from a metro station with no parking and neighborhood opposition.

The MLS season kicked off this past weekend. Hope DC United can recover from last season and that Audi Field will be nice.

Now this is how you make your MLS debut - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J15vfXqnwWw

DICKS EVERYWHERE

I fucking HATED him during his runs with Oakland/Tennessee/USC, but when he went to OC of Bama, and now coach of FIU (or is it FAU? can't be bothered to look it up) and faded into the background a bit, I now really appreciate him for his personality and honesty. Football coaches are so fucking protective and sterile that I've really started to miss the Steve Spurriers of the world. Kiffin is walking in his footsteps, so I've come around to being a fan of his.

USA fucking up left and right, but at least they moved ahead of Russia so yay moral victory?

THOSE ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS CANADIAN TEARS!!!!!!

Elizabeth Swaney is Eddie the Eagle if she was a trust fund baby who bought her way into the Olympics took advantage of others who crashed that actually put in the effort to try to qualify. They really need to overhaul how people can qualify for events especially for ones with a small field of competitors like the women's ski halfpipe. Such an embarrassment.

This brother and sister team or the "Shib Sibs" as they are stupidly called is the creepiest, most disgusting thing I have ever seen in figure skating. These siblings are all dancing to romantic music, caressing each other, grabbing each others asses, who the fuck thought this would be a good idea?

Fuck yeah the US got the gold in men’s curling. Curling is my favorite winter Olympic sport now. 🥌 🇺🇸 🥇

>>32075
Well Figure Skating does rely on the supposed sexual tension between the skaters. The Shib Sibs are good but when you’re competing with the likes of David Weir and Tessa Virtue, it’s hard to do the things Weir/Virtue and other pairs can do.

What the fuck is all this miltary masturbation in this god damn outdoor game? I half expected them to say the in lue of hockey, the Caps and Leafs were just going to shoot at each other on the ice.

>>32020
They're mediocre.

Stars still stompin. Let's make sure those Blues don't make it to the playoffs.

Being a Habs fan is suffering.

>>32088

>They're mediocre

No need to be rude.
Don't worry though, I'm sure neither of our teams will even sniff the cup finals.

>>32088
also

>still stompin
>5-4-1 in the last 10

Good joke, sounds like a pretty mediocre record
