Metropolis Posted April 16, 2022 Author Share Posted April 16, 2022 The national anthem for the USFL kickoff..... brutal. I felt so bad for the soldier. She had to be nervous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamevet Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 I missed out on seeing the USFL this weekend. They could have put a bit more promotion behind it, to make more people aware of it. I did catch some highlights on Youtube, of the game between New Jersey and Birmingham. It looked like a pretty good game. It's good to see a couple of the old USFL teams in action.

Metropolis Posted April 18, 2022 Author Share Posted April 18, 2022 You didn't miss much. There was a lot of bad football. A lot of missed kicks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metropolis Posted April 20, 2022 Author Share Posted April 20, 2022 When i went to sleep it looked like it was inevitable that the Suns were going to go up 2-0. Wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Krawlie Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 Booker’s out for who knows how long. It would suck to have the Suns best chance at a championship since Barkley get blown up because of an injury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamevet Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 I was not able to watch Mavs game 2, because of some stupid rule that NBA TV couldn’t broadcast the game in Dallas. I don’t know if it was stupid Hulu, but I did not see a our local stations broadcasting the game. I’m probably going to miss tonight’s game as well.

Metropolis Posted April 23, 2022 Author Share Posted April 23, 2022 I don't usually blame the refs, but when you call ticky tack fouls to allow a team to get back into the game and look the other way on legit fouls down the stretch how can i not. You completely changed the way the Heat played defense the last eight minutes of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamevet Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 Vegas is a MF'er. I know some games just had to be rigged. And I'm not just talking about the NBA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Krawlie Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 good god I'm so excited for the nets to get swept simmons deserves better. I don't know his contract status but I hope he can find a better team I want the sixers to do well cuz I like embiid, but one of the last things I want in the sports world is for harden to ever get a ring something tells me there won't be a word about the durant/irving nets being one of the most disappointing super teams ever, but somehow lebron's lakers will be even though they won a championship Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Metropolis Posted April 26, 2022 Author Share Posted April 26, 2022 The thing about the Nets is that you saw it coming. At no point this season did they show that they could make a championship run. Any belief they could had to do with the fact that KD and Kyrie were on the team. The Harden trade looks like a steal for Philly. Ben Simmons has to be the most overrated NBA superstar in decades. Even Harden says "That dude is overrated." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamevet Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 My Mavs put on a defensive clinic against the Jazz. Things got ugly in the 4th, with Luka getting a hard foul while driving to the basket, leading to a lot of pushing and a couple of ejections. I believe that they'll end this in Utah.

Metropolis Posted April 26, 2022 Author Share Posted April 26, 2022 So Jimmy Butler is out for tonight's game with knee inflammation. Butler missed a lot of games this year for minor things. I'm thinking that because the Heat did so well with multiple lineups this year, being up 3-1 they're like why not take the chance.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Krawlie Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 bucks/celtics is gonna be one HELL of a second round match up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metropolis Posted April 29, 2022 Author Share Posted April 29, 2022 It's weird seeing a defensive lineman making that jump from being the third or fourth lineman taken to the first overall pick. I didn't see Hutchinson being the first pick either. He's not physically imposing and he got SHUT OUT in his team's biggest game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Metropolis Posted April 29, 2022 Author Share Posted April 29, 2022 Such a bad look for Zion. Only one QB taken in the first round. I can't believe these teams actually made smart decisions. Other than Pickett, and even he was iffy as a first rounder, none of these other guys showed enough to over pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamevet Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Dallas does it again. They pick up troubled talent in DE Sam Williams. I hope this doesn't turn out to be another Randy Gregory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metropolis Posted April 30, 2022 Author Share Posted April 30, 2022 I guess Embiid fractured an orbital bone and got a concussion last night. He's out indefinitely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Krawlie Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 what's with the big boos for morant? is it just cuz he's the enemy star player, or did I miss something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metropolis Posted April 30, 2022 Author Share Posted April 30, 2022 The game is at Minnesota and the T Wolves are out if they lose so yeah. I've been watching the Lightning game/Smackdown and following the draft on my phone. No qbs so far I'm the second and third round. I guarantee not one analyst had admitted that these guys would be no higher than a fourth round pick in a better qb class. I'm not hating, but you don't take the qb from Liberty no one heard high of because there are fewer options. My bad. I forgot about Desmond Ridder.
