Why waste your time with junk football leagues. Much better competition and athletes in Pro Lacrosse.

Avs eliminated the Winnipeg Jets tonight.

Scored 28 goals in 5 games against the team that allowed the fewest goals in the regular season. At least 5 goals in all 5 games.

Saw there was a UFC ppv tonight, looked over the card to see if it was worth checking out, and was like ugh. So I googled "ufc 301 garbage" or something similar, and this reddit thread came up. I busted up laughing when I watched the video...

Canelo is fighting tonight, they weren't going to counter-program a good card against a Canelo fight

good for goff...but that is a steep ass price. I suppose he deserves it more than cousins - who has done nothing beyond the regular season.

Sources: Lions signing Goff to $212M extension

The Lions are signing quarterback Jared Goff to a four-year, $212 million contract extension that includes $170 million guaranteed, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Monday.

Well fuck

Val Nichushkin is back in the NHL Player Assistance Program. Third relapse, which means he's automatically suspended without pay for a minimum of six months and must apply for reinstatement to be allowed back at all.

Avs might be screwed if Landeskog can't make it back and bail them out.

It’s over Dallas has the hottest goalie in the playoffs.

NLL: Mammoth gonna repeat, fuck you
MLB: ... just fuck you

There was a time I was proposing we start a syndicate based on famis predictions.

Please can someone update me with how close he was with these.

CFL: wrong
NHL: wrong
NFL: lololol wrong
NBA: ugh, correct
NLL: who cares, but wrong
MLB: hilariously right

I am pleased I didn't follow through with the betting syndicate proposal.

Takerufuji is out of this Spring tourney, Day 1.

Bummer…he really had momentum as the first rookie to win his maiden tournament in 110 years. He won all three special prizes while doing it, too.

Guess the ankle tweek from last time is more serious than they reconed.

I have no idea what or who any of this is...but it sounds far more interesting than Denver sports.

haha eat shit @famicommander Dallas over Denver in 6.

 

[SouthtownKid]

I don't give much of a fuck about who brodcasts NBA games. But losing Inside the NBA on TNT is a fucking calamity of biblical proportions.

 

[BasicMicroGun]

I thought it was about time for a blast from the past @famicommander

Sebastian Fundora just dropped a belt to duck Terence Crawford.

Fundora was the reigning WBC/WBO super welterweight champion. He was ordered to face the winner of Israil Madrimov v Terence Crawford, which is set to take place in August for Madrimov's WBA and the vacant WBO interim championship. But instead, Fundora has opted to vacate the WBO belt and instead defend his WBC belt against Errol Spence Jr, whom Crawford knocked out in their last fight.

So that means Crawford v Madrimov is now a unified title fight for the full WBA and WBO super welterweight world titles.

Hopefully after the Madrimov fight, Jermell Charlo comes out of hiding to face Crawford. Charlo has been stripped of all his alphabet soup belts but he's still the reigning lineal/TBRB and Ring Magazine champion.

How ‘bout that Indy 500? I’m not usually one for oval track racing; however, last year’s winner repeating in the last turn of the last lap was entertaining.

Dude raked in a $440,000 bonus from Team Penske for that drive.

 

[famicommander]

racing is like golf-tier boring

 

[wataru330]

Golf is boring as shit irl and on a screen. Racing? Not even.

Fuck NASCAR, and Indy on circle tracks-but WRC Rally, F1, World of Outlaws, Monster Jam, Ice Track Motorcycle, Supercross, and Drag Race events are anything but boring in person, and serviceable + on TV.

 

[famicommander]

incorrect

 

[wataru330]

You’ve obviously never been to race in person. You can call it a bunch of things- not boring tho.

Your admission gets you the entire seat…BUT YOU ONLY NEED… T H E EEEEEEEDDDDDDDGGGGGGGEEEEEE
