  1. That's right, "analytics" says the 3 is the shot to take, so get rid of it. Touchdowns from 50 yards aren't worth more. I agree completely about "Load Management" an Ouchie and a player is in street clothes, his $40M salary, recuperating. The season is far too long, none of the players care about competing the first 50 games or so: that ridiculous mid-season tournament. The NBA All Star Game, 240-230? The Dunk contest used to be fun, actual stars competed, but now the stars aren't interested, not enough $$, and they're all afraid they wouldn't win and be embarrassed. Look at OBD, SOFT as a pillow, a 3 is their favorite shot. Of course they can't defend it, but they can't defend in the paint either.
  2. Championship in Boston. I hope Bobby Orr is there.
  3. No offsides. USA 3-1
  4. Not for the better. More than the other sports, basketball has been taken over by the "entertainment" freaks. More scoring, 3 pointer, shot clock. All of these. In 1975, Oregon beat UCLA, 65-45, believe me, it was very entertaining. No shot clock, no 3 pointers, Ducks got off to a 20-0 lead, played keepaway the rest of the game. Wooden hated it. I can see the use of the shot clock, but not the 3.
  5. Messier, Gretzky's Enforcer, a Hall of Famer in his own right.
  6. GOAL!! USA 2-1.
  7. I hate the 3 point shot. My greatest memories of basketball are all from before the 3. The Knicks of the early 70's, the Walton Trail Blazers, and of course in college, Ronnie Lee is the leading scorer in Oregon history, no 3 point shot. It has done great harm to the beauty of the game.
  8. The article mentions that the ratings are still high, good attendance, made me think back to when "American Idol" first started, millions of people watched the 1st round, because the singers were awful. Ratings have never equated with quality. The new coliseum where the Clippers plays is a marvel, full of attractions for the fans, you don't need to watch the game at all.
  9. Couldn't agree with him more. Draymond Green on the state of the NBA: It's 'boring,' the Warriors star says SPORTS.YAHOO.COM Draymond Green had just spoken for a few minutes Saturday morning about the state of the game, about how he believes it's...
  10. Connor Mcdavid, one of the best players in the NHL, scored the goal.
  11. Power Play for Canada
  12. Fighting before the Face-off!
  13. Well, I don't think OBD will lose at Penn State, I agree that osu2 will beat Penn State and, I think osu2 will beat Michigan. This would put osu2 and OBD in the B1G CG, where yes, always want to win, but...
  14. Ducks doing great on the Diamonds!
  15. A few thoughts: It will be hard to catch, much less surpass osu2, because OBD is still behind, catching up, but osu2 is not going to pause. Washington won't fall off the cliff, but as the fans cry and moan about how Oregon is USING NIL and the portal to BUY a championship, if they don't get into the swing of things, their split championship in '91 will be it. I'm pleased to see, "I win, Google Me" Cignetti and his "Emerging superpower, Indiana" sitting around the middle.
  16. They did receive $$$ for winning the Players Era Festival in November, Quad1 wins over Texas A & M, San Diego State & Alabama.
  17. For sure. Typically, being the captain of a Carrier is a step from Admiral. This will be hard to ignore.
  18. Power Play goal for USA, 3-1! Make it 4-1!
  19. It's not clickbait, he said it on air. Is there any reasoning behind his opinion? Fox Sports host: Andy Reid should step down as Chiefs' head coach AWFULANNOUNCING.COM Rob Parker believes Andy Reid’s recent struggles signal a larger issue, suggesting it may be time for him to step down as Chiefs...
  20. Ducks basketball deploying hockey strategy, they often go Empty Net.
  21. First period ends, 1-1, neither team scored on their power plays.
