This game isn't going well. 6 on 3 with 4:29 to go, down 2, is last chance. I'm not in favour of pulling Ned here.

Larkin is on for the morning skate.

Trigger warning:

Too many home runs and strikeouts. We need to bring back the art of the smart base running and the stolen base.

0-1-2 road trip. Not good enough.

Sharks may have won in OT on a trickler. Reviewing it for offside.

Wings were really fortunate to still be tied, that was a clanger off the post with about 3 minutes to go. Now 30 seconds away from at least a point.

I like the red jerseys on the road.

Of all the ticky-tack goalie interference calls, i don't like the NHL rule that clearly allows the Sharks goal to stand, sliding into the goalie like that. 2-2 with 6 minutes to go in regulation

That seemed like the longest commercial break ever, until I realized there must be an issue with my NHL.com feed. Refreshed to learn the Wings had tied it on a late 2nd period Bertuzzi goal.

I went to an Internet World trade show in January 1995. Stuck around the area to interview with two companies. Both interviews were so-so, didn't really hit it off, probably could have got a job with either but was not impressed enough to push hard. First company was market research firm Frost & Sullivan. Second company was ... Yahoo.

No Larkin tonight

Final AP rankings out. https://www.espn.com/college-football/rankings 1. Georgia 2. Alabama 3. Michigan 6. Ohio State 8. Notre Dame 9. Michigan State 14. Clemson 23. Iowa Texas A&M, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Purdue just missed the top 25. In the coaches poll, top 4 still the same but Ohio State is #5 over Baylor and Michigan State is #8 over Notre Dame.

Gotta be happy for Georgia fans right now.

I would consider going for 2 here.

Pushing the pile by Georgia like in rugby, like they did a few times cs Michigan

This Georgia defence is something else

What a weird play. In real time I thought it was an incomplete pass then picked up while out of bounds. In fact, fumble and recovered inbounds.

Alabama leading Georgia three FGs to two FGs at the half. Running games non-existent.

4D chess strikes again!

Why? You think if the Chargers got the ball back after a missed FG attempt with 30 seconds to go they would have tried to get into FG position? Maybe, but I think that's a reach.

It makes no sense. If the concern was that the Raiders would call time out to kick a Fg, it wouldn’t matter if they tried the kick with 35s to go or 1s to go. If he makes it, game is over anyways, the time doesn’t mean anything to you.

Seriously, what was the Chrshers coach thinking? Raiders would not have tried a 57 yard FG attempt.
