    NBA 2021-2022

    It might be a little early to get that interested in the NBA's long, long season, but I saw this gem and figured it's the right way to kick things off. Anyone have any predictions for surprise team or player perilformances this year?

    NFL Pigskin Prognostication (contest)

    This is the weekly pick'em contest I mentioned starting. There will be a winner each week and season-long standings with a championship that proceeds through the playoffs. The structure of the playoffs will be determined after a couple weeks when I know how many regular players there will be...

    2021 Lucas Oil Pro Motocross

    Watched the first 450 moto from Fox Raceway. What a close finish! Surprising winner in Ferrandis, great ride for him, barely prevailing over Sexton. Very impressive charge from Barcia to finish third and the same for Plessinger in fourth. Webb fifth. Several disappointing results. A sixth for...

    2021 Monster Energy Supercross

    Good to have it back, even if on a packed night of racing and sports. Not the traditional opening round in Anaheim, but Houston. Most of the top guys are healthy, and the 450 class is as stacked as I can remember. Should be fun.

    Jackie Boggs

    I believe he was only about 50 years old. He ran the DTWC just last weekend, so this was clearly very unexpected.

    Car numbers on rear quarter panels

    I'm agnostic on the subject and not attached to the status quo. But oh boy, I know this won't be the most popular news leak of the day.

    MLB punishes the Astros for 2017 sign stealing as the NFL should have punished the Patriots

    instead of covering it up and destroying the evidence. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/28476780/astros-jeff-luhnow-aj-hinch-fired-sign-stealing In short, MLB suspended both the Astros' GM Jeff Luhnow and manager AJ Hinch for the upcoming season, and the Astros in turn fired both. They...

    Dirt late models 2020

    The WoO late models season started tonight at Vado Speedway Park in NM. Brandon Sheppard has been dominant in this series of late, but will probably have more competition this year with a two-car Bloomquist team contesting the series with Chris Madden and Bloomquist as drivers. Madden wins the...

    The schedule has been released. There are some cool additions (Kokomo, I-70) and omissions (Placerville, Haubstadt put on great shows, but I won't miss Las Vegas or the Nashville experiment TBH).

    2019 British Grand Prix

    Nothing fancy here, but there should be a thread in place for morning. Bottas on the pole, we'll see how long that lasts. FWIW Leclerc and Verstappen don't appear that far off Mercedes' pace. Starting grid Driver Grid Qual time V. Bottas Mercedes·#77 1 1:25.093 L. Hamilton Mercedes·#44 2...
