I took a night off from watching sports last night and played Nintendo Switch with the kiddos. I did catch a few minutes of the Raptors game and then later a few minutes of the Hawks vs Kings game before I turned on a movie (Equalizer 3- pretty good if you like action films).
Any boxing fans lingering around Stacker Sports? @kaffi, who keeps dominating our UFC pick 'ems requested we do a boxing pick 'em for the upcoming Fury vs Usyk fight. I noticed it was on the same night as UFC so I was thinking of just having a combat sports pick 'em and include a couple of the boxing matches in with the ufc matches for that night but if enough people are interested I will run a separate one.
@Undisciplined's NBA trade season contest is still running if you want to throw your hat in the ring with some trade ideas. Speaking of NBA, I am not a Joel Embiid fan but credit where credit is due the man is having an MVP season. He took Wemby to school last night and scored 70 points.
Wow, the told you so, US hot take artist media knives are out for Brock Purdy after one lackluster playoff game in horrible weather conditions where he still led his team to a game winning drive. Going 6/7 on that game winning drive. If the point is Pudry is not Mahomes, Jackson or Allen that's fair. If the point is there are a couple other young QBs in Stroud and Love that may prove to be the next great QBs in the league that have more traits than Purdy, that's fair as well. But why these losers are so desperate for Purdy to fail so they can say I told you so, I will never understand. Keep it up I say, you are just firing up the whole 49ers team.
Sats for all,
