Sports Bio

My favorite teams are the Cubs, Tigers, Lions, Panthers, Hurricanes, Sri Lanka, and Kings XI Punjab.
My most memorable sporting event that I attended was Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals in 2006 when the Hurricanes won it all. I will never forget a second of that game.

Monday night magnified Tom Brady's conflict of interest: From the moment Tom Brady both took the job as the No. 1 analyst at Fox while also trying to buy a piece of the Raiders, the conflict of interest was lurking. It became obvious on Monday night, with the video of Brady embedded in the Raiders’ coaching box, wearing a headset and watching a tablet.

For the Love of God Stop Betting Parlays

I was told by an old timey gambler to bet only on an underdog and only then if you feel that they will actually win the game. Also, *never ever* bet on parlays. They are nothing but sucker bets and only chumps put money on them.

When "sports wagering" arrived in NC a year or two ago, I put $100 in an account and have been playing with that money ever since then. I think I'm back up to close to that. But then again, I follow that guy's advice and hardly ever gamble.

'What a legend': Hockey world reacts as McDavid signs astonishing contract with Oilers

Good for him. He still makes a ton of money per season but gives Edmonton 2 seasons to get their shit together and get him and the other stars on the team some real help in other positions. "Can't do it in the next 2 seasons? Later."

LOL. Coach Franklin is sticking around through the end of *that* contract. It's just amazing to me that schools will give out a contract like that. At the very least, there should be some numbers to hit before a coach gets that kind of payout just for getting fired.

Although I'm tired of Dabo and quietly hope that UNC handles Clemson today.

Please don't look at the scoreboard.

40 minutes of highlights from the 1962 Giants-Yankees World Series

These are really cool. I have to admit, I did not know anything about the 1966 World Series, even who played in it. The O's swept the Dodgers and pitched 33 scoreless innings! Uh, dominant?

Wild sign Kirill Kaprizov to richest contract in NHL history

That gigantic load hitting the inside of his pants right now is McJesus's agent. Speaking of the Earlers, they have to be the happiest people on this planet for locking up the, arguably, second best player in the NHL for 8 years, $14 million AAV. McJesus will surely get about $21 million per season from *someone*. All that being said, ain't no way is Kaprizov worth $17 million per season.
