  "It's a name that I think a lot of casual fans can actually get behind. It just sounds mystical. It sounds fantastic. But it. They are playing some seriously good soccer. I mean, you have to. They started off hot and a lot of people said, you know, they're going to come down, but they haven't done that yet. And they've won three of their last five matches. So it's continuing and really fun to watch."

  "And when calls don't get go their way and affect a game, perhaps where they have money on it, they tend to get angry. And you're seeing this with the Kansas City Chiefs this year in the Super Bowl. They're getting a lot of favorable calls. And people are suggesting that the refs, that the fix is in, that the NFL wants this."

  "Quite honestly, I wish they would go back to the days of, after the championship game, boom, you went straight to the Super Bowl. And let the Pro bowl be, you know, the exhibition game that the players play when they want to go somewhere nice and tropical and they just want to relax and have a good time. And yeah, let that be the way that it used. That's the way it used to be. Let. Let that come back."

  Click here to reply to @Phil
  
  "If you followed the NFL and the super bowl for a while, you may actually recall that it might not have been always two weeks between the AFC NFC Championship games and the Super Bowl. You're not imagining things. There were times where there was just a one week break. Sometimes there was a two week break. But since 2004, it has become standard that there is the two week break between those championship games and the Super Bowl."

  "And that was 1967, the year after the NHL doubled in size. They went to 12 teams and they have not even been to the finals since then. And this is a city that loves their hockey. I think the Scotiabank arena where they play actually has a capacity of about 18,800. And every single year they average more than 19,000 into a game. A lot of standing room only seats, not seats, but a lot of standing room only tickets being sold."

  "We are one week away from the NBA trade deadline and the rumors and puns are flying all over the place. De'Aaron Fox, Jimmy Butler, these are two names that are probably the most prominent in these rumors. Sacramento said that they are entertaining offers for De'Aaron Fox. San Antonio definitely interested, as another of teams probably are now. We're all familiar with Jimmy Butler and the issues that he's having with the Miami Heat right now."

  "She has made tremendous strides in both the physical game not tossing her serve as high and the mental game as especially. And not only Sciontek, but against Sabalenka. What a a match. It was just wonderfully played. A lot of winners, not very many unforced errors and you couldn't ask for a better final. And sometimes your opponent kind of gives away the match. That was not the case with Sabalenka. Sabalenka played fabulously."

  "But there's also this growing tension of the refs in the review booth actually favoring Kansas City Chiefs and Pat Mahomes. We saw that again yesterday with a fourth down that Josh Allen seemed to get. The announcers all thought that, including Gene Sarrator, who does the officials for the network, they all thought that he gained a first down, but on review they said he didn't. There was a phantom flag on the last play of the Buffalo Bills game, which I still not really sure what happened."

• January 27, 2025@Guruball1 | Will boxing as we know it continue to survive or morph into celebrity boxing or something else? What is the future of boxing?

  "Because fighting is something that's always entertaining. You always want to see who's doing what, the different styles, because styles make fights. So you want to see who's bobbing, who's weaving. The slugger versus the puncher. You want to see the counter punches. If he throws a punch, is he. Can he get his arm back quick enough to watch out for the other opponent throwing the counter punch to catch him off balance or off guard?"

• January 24, 2025@OhioGirl42986 | Ohio State defeats Notre Dame to win but some are saying they were not interested or forgot. Did the NCAA playoffs take too long?

  "I am an Ohio State fan. I bleed scarlet and gray. And I will say I was okay with the way the 12 teams, the way the playoff was, because I don't think it was too long. And I think it helped Ohio State tremendously to have it this way because I don't think they'd be champions now without it being this way. And I'm so proud of Ohio State. They beat the four teams that they had to to win, and they did."
