Of course I posted about Spring yesterday and this happened.

Go figure, but I had a very nice walk in the winter wonderland.

Shout out to @BlokchainB for running a very cool impromptu contest yesterday that @hodlpleb won. If you have ever checked the top stacker stats you will notice that Blok is pretty much the most generous stacker around. I was thinking that if SN had an NFL style awards that Blok would be a good candidate for Walter Payton Man of the Year and of course now I want to do an SN NFL style awards.

NBA All star game this weekend. I always enjoy the 3pt and dunk contest even though they aren't what they used to be. For the dunk contest, all I ask is please stop jumping over dudes to dunk. We get it, you can jump high. Unless they are jumping over Wemby, I don't want to see any jumping over guys dunks.

Also happening this weekend is UFC 298. Join the pick 'em here #426400. Only a couple entries so far, so you have a good chance at victory.

I finally closed the book on the NFL season yesterday, which was a good but bittersweet one with the way it ended, and switched over from NFL Network to MLB Network in my tv package. A lot of talk about these new MLB jerseys. They do look kinda cheap.

Happy Friday.

Sats for all, GR

My subs are working!

I just saw the news that Jimmy G got suspended for taking PED's. That's pretty sad.

I am pleased subs are working now. I saw your post today, pub's two posts and siggy's post. I wasn't getting any before.

What? They clearly didn't help. He was awful this year.

I'm guessing he was taking them to avoid slipping our of the league entirely. I hope we get some cap relief for that suspension.

2 games is pretty light for PEDs. I know they only play 17 so everything is relative but that's about 1/3 of what you would get in MLB.

Maybe the league also feels sorry for him.

Curry is also having a head to head 3pt contest with Sabrina Ionescu. Good exposure for the WNBA and should be fun to watch. I saw some of her highlights on YouTube, she is a legit shooter. I think it's happening Saturday right after the regular 3pt contest.

Unless they are jumping over Wemby, I don't want to see any jumping over guys dunks.

Maybe McClung will do that this year?

What happened to the MLB jerseys?

MLB has switched to Nike/Fanatics jerseys and they kind of look like replica jerseys.

Here is a good comparison between last year and this year someone from the Mariners press tweeted.

Ah I've heard people complain about them with hockey jerseys before so I guess that makes sense...sucks that they're making all the jerseys now
