We are going to need Nuremberg Trials when this is all over.

Shoddy defending by the LA Kings against Vegas, but on the plus side, Panarin looks to be clicking already

The Raptors are like the anti-Lakers They are capable of some truly suffocating defence (they turned OKC over on three consecutive possessions) but can also put out some really stagnant offence that loses them games

I guarantee you we get the first back-tracking from the USA men’s hockey team within a month Utterly baffling decision to forever taint what would have been their crowning achievement with the poison that is this administration

This SOTU is going to be an utter shambles. Part of me wonders (thinks wishfully) if such an unmitigated disaster may convince a few of the empty, principle-less shells that surround the orange ghoul that he may not have been the wagon to hitch themselves to

Hope the 'NBA-was-way-tougher-in-the-90s' crowd were watching Pistons-Spurs last night Wasn't even nailbitingly close, but the defensive intensity was off the scale I see flashes of Dwight Howard when Jalen Duren is rolling

Boy, the Lakers sure do give up lengthy scoring runs, but BOY do the Lakers go on lengthy scoring runs

LaMelo Ball has facial hair that is only acceptable on someone who is really good at a really cool job As soon as those crazy one legged threes stop falling, the sideburns have to go

Eric Collins is the best commentator in any sport That is a hill I will die on.

I’ll defer to someone with more experience as a fan of women’s hockey than me but surely the USA ladies have just put on the best Olympic run ever?

The stick lift to save a breakaway in OT 🔥 The filthy dangle for the goal that wins the gold medal 😮‍💨 Instant classic

Canada Mitch Marner is close to attaining angry LeBron status So so clutch on the international stage

Time for the NFL to put its money where its mouth is and follow through on its personal conduct policies

TNT Sports hoovering up the Winter Olympics rights in the UK is a crying shame Another example of the neutering of the BBC in the name of protecting the profits of big business

Lotta teams gotta be seriously considering making a move for Tyreek Hill If I’m the Bills, Pats, Chiefs or Broncos, the allure of a five time all pro might me too much

I hate getting the stupid Google Captcha questions wrong. The distinction between man and machine surely has to amount to more than which one can recognise a blurry image of a bus

No author in modern literature has captured the process corruption and political disintegration as well as George R.R. Martin The books maybe aren’t taken as seriously as they should be due to e show, but they really are exquisitely detailed, thoughtful and cohesive

Just watched ‘The Town’ for the first time last night Gotta admit I see where Joe Mazzulla is coming from, it’s a damn good movie

Chris Paul's career should not have ended like this But the man retires as one of the five best players ever to lace em up at his position and maybe THE best player to never win a ring Not bad all things together

I completely forgot that Isiah Joe was on the OKC Thunder still Shows you how stupidly deep that team is

Fun/depressing exercise for you all: How many people in the current US administration are the worst (both morally and in terms of competence) to ever hold that position? I’m betting at least five

I don't know if the story of James Pierce attacking Rickea Jackson has really gotten traction outside of the sports press but it's another just absolutely horrible story of misogynist and patriarchal violence in a year full of hideous stories Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Of course the near-bottom of the league Pacers save their best performance of the year for the Knicks Spite is one hell of a motivator

That is pretty embarassing from the Heat, losing to the worst defence in the league at home while the Jazz rest their starters in the 4th. Miami do not have anyone who can make tough shots at the moment

Watching Charles Barkley highlights and being sad that three of the maybe five best players never to win a ring all played for the Suns (Barkley, Nash and Paul)

It's gonna be ironic if Isaiah Stewart gets a longer suspension for going after Miles Bridges than Miles Bridges got when he did the thing that made everyone root for Stewart in this confrontation.

Best defensive performance I've seen in a Super Bowl since the Broncos in 2016. On a not-unrelated note, might be the most aura loss for a QB from a Super Bowl since a certain business decision was made

There is a whole essay to be written about this topi but in short… Yas from Industry is Cersei Lannister

The most sickeningly accurate thing about the show Industry is how late stage capitalism turns every who participates in it into the worst possible version of themselves and then crushes them with a fate so bad you can’t even take pleasure in their downfall

Meta just dropped $65 million on two super PACs trying to elect pro-Big Tech candidates. Think about that. If they invest a good chunk of cash into manipulating our politics, it could save them billions in regulation compliance and taxes. This system is so broken.

It really is absurd that in a year when JSN and Puka Nacua had truly monster seasons and Myles Garrett *literally broke the single-season sack record* that Christian McCaffrey was the lone non-QB to be an MVP finalist.

Kings got the Breadman?? Given how weak the Pacific is this might actually move the needle between them in the playoffs

To be fair, for Bill to score that many points all by himself is nothing to sniff at

Feels like you could have got a much better deal for McCain by not trading at the absolute low point of his value

BREAKING: The Philadelphia 76ers are trading guard Jared McCain to the Oklahoma City Thunder for a 2026 Rockets first-round pick and three second-round picks, sources tell ESPN.

Lol the Sabres are playing out of their goddamn minds at the moment Sure they may have lost but they took a top-3 team in the league to overtime Really really hope they make the playoffs this year

Victor Hedman is so fun to watch He’s just massive. Obviously extremely skilled and smart but I cannot get past just how huge he is There are no passing lanes within 500 yards of him

Watched the Hornets for the first time in a long time and have some thoughts: 1. I was comically wrong to give up on Brandon Miller, the guy is an incredible shot maker 2. Kon Kneuppel is every stereotype of a white basketball player, which is very funny

There are few joys in life like listening to Eric Collins when the Hornets are absolutely rolling.

I’ve been reading a lot about the LIBOR rigging scandal recently and it blows my mind how much of a fucking travesty it was from top to bottom Tom Hayes absolutely, 100%, without a doubt committed a series time and deserved to go to prison

Well, hopefully this latest batch of Epstein files finally puts to the notion that Bill Gates is anything but the same kind of creepy, lecherous old man as all the other billionaires, no matter what his PR and philanthropy machine says

If Demar DeRozan gets into the Hall of Fame I will legitimately be pissed The Hall of Fame is fun when you’re making extremely tough calls about all-time level players Whereas letting DeRozan in would be getting an easy call very wrong about a decent player

I am not a particular fan of the Florida Panthers, but if I were, I would be pretty aggrieved about some of the calls vs the Mammoth Very odd to see a player whose just drawn a penalty called for embellishment on the same play - if it was enough to draw a penalty, were they really embellishing?

If Hedman comes back for the Tampa Bay Lightning at even 70% of his best, they’re the best team in the east

Bulls had some really weird court-mapping issues vs the Lakers. Some needless turnovers from not recognising where defenders were and then on the other end some suspect rotations with two men guarding the same spot on the floor and leaving a Laker wide open

Agh now THIS is a Luka Doncic I can get behind I fell out of love with is game somewhat over the past few years, but slimming down has made him look so much more dynamic again (and better able to tread water on defence) 46 & 11, what a monster night

Matt Walsh has rapidly climbed to the top of my ‘people we as a society would do well to remove from public life’ leaderboard

Surely there is more that we don’t know about the environment at the Bills Otherwise what is the point of making Brady HC He did help get the best out of Josh Allen, but the offence wasn’t the issue

I sincerely hope that the 2026 World Cup is the debacle that it looks like it will be, and that Infantino gets some comeuppance for crawling into bed with the autocrats
