MFFL. Luka era. Die on this hill.
somebody finally said it
State championship weekend at AT&T Stadium is the best sporting event in Texas and I will fight anyone who says otherwise. Including Cowboys fans.
Hotels in Surprise versus Scottsdale -- we stayed for $120/night and drove to Old Town for dinner. Best of both worlds.
Astros fans at Globe Life are genuinely annoying. I say this with respect for the rivalry — the trash talk gets heated and it makes the games better. But they are annoying.
Jackman said Logan was his last Wolverine THREE TIMES before Deadpool & Wolverine. The man cannot quit. He will be back.
Sell scenario should be off the table entirely. This ownership group spent $744M to win. Selling at the deadline would be a slap in the face to the fanbase.
Spring training in Surprise is the best baseball experience available. Small stadium, perfect weather, $15 lawn seats, and you are 50 feet from MLB players.
Bench playmaking is the thing that scares me most for the playoffs. When Luka sits, who creates? Kyrie cannot play 40 minutes in every playoff game. He is 34.
Zona Futbol on Harry Hines is the move. Multiple TVs, all Liga MX and Champions League. Good food too.
Player familiarity with the arena at 40% is interesting. The shooting backdrop, the lighting, the depth perception — these are things fans never think about but players absolutely notice.

Playoff hockey at AAC is the loudest sporting event in DFW. I have been to Cowboys games, Mavs games, Rangers games — nothing touches a Stars playoff game for noise level. The building vibrates.
The referee bias component being 35% of home court advantage is the stat that should make everyone uncomfortable. Crowd noise literally influences how officials call the game. That is a structural unfairness baked into every sport.
The 68% first-round advancement rate for top-10 power plays is the stat that matters for our playoff hopes. Special teams win in the postseason. The improvement from 22nd to 8th is massive.
The switch to the overload formation was the tactical move of the season. Going from predictable to dynamic on the PP changed the trajectory of the entire season. Great coaching adjustment.
Pregame warmups with my kids are the highlight of every game for them. My 7-year-old got a puck tossed to him last month and he has not stopped talking about it. Those small moments create lifelong fans.
Beltre\'s 3,000th hit makes me emotional just thinking about it. The standing ovation lasted 5+ minutes. He earned every second of it. Sixteen years of being one of the best players in baseball.
Defense in Fort Worth is the move if you want stability. Lockheed has been hiring nonstop for F-35 related software. You need a clearance but they will sponsor it.
Dirk\'s final home game triple-double was the most emotional sporting event I have ever attended. A 40-year-old scoring 30 points in his last game. Hollywood could not script it better.
lol nah
Ghost of Tsushima 2 is the safe bet if GTA 6 disappoints. Sucker Punch does not miss. The first game's combat is the best melee system in an open-world game.
Using all remaining cap space means we are locked in. No more moves possible. What we have now is what we are going to the playoffs with. I hope it is enough.
Health monitoring is quietly the most valuable application. Keeping pitchers healthy saves tens of millions in replacement costs.
WAR-based valuation showing him as a bargain is the analysis that matters. 5.2 WAR at $32.5M per year when the market rate is $8-9M per win is genuinely underpaid. We got a discount.
The wing defender acquisition is the move that matters. 39% from three and elite defense? That is exactly what this team has been missing. And it only cost a late second-round pick.
