@BBGreatMoments Is trying to get on base the goal… did he get on base? Then of course it is. I would say the only thing not reasonable is leaning in to get hit by a pitch on purpose.

Is bunting to break up a flawless game acceptable, or no?

@SamAMcKee And the nhl brought in a celebrity “the Simpson comic book guy” to select the ping pong balls for this auspicious occasion to honour the Leafs

@worldhockeyrpt Simmons? What now way - even if I hated this move - Simmons being against it makes me think it’s probably the right one. Simmons is as annoying as sand in my shoe - and about as insightful
English
Steve Simmons goes at Keith Pelley for hiring John Chayka. This was something.

@SamAMcKee My nightmare is that Vegas and Habs make Cup final and I have to leaving me nobody to cheer for - I clearly can’t cheer for Marner but I clearly can’t cheer for the Habs … it’s inconceivable

An example: ran for the leadership in 2017 promising deep tax cuts -- just two rates, 15 and 29 per cent. Almost promised to privatize the CMHC. Hawkish on defence and foreign policy, believer in free markets and free trade, against hyphenated Canadianism, student of Canadian history, advocate of the rights of Parliament. Classic traditional conservatism.

The thing is, Chong's not a Red Tory. He's very conservative. He's just not a yahoo.
Scott Robertson@sarobertsonca
Robert Fife: "The red Tories for the most part except for Michael Chong have been chased out of the Conservative Party and it's become more of a right-wing party with a lot of MAGA people in it."

One player gets elected to the Hall of Fame, the others never do.
Who gets the call?
1. Barry Bonds
2. Pete Rose
3. Shoeless Joe Jackson
4. Roger Clemens
5. Lou Whitaker
6. Curt Schilling
7. Mark McGwire
8. Sammy Sosa
9. Kenny Lofton
10. Write in a player

@SamAMcKee If you have Alexi Kovalev as your most talented player you better have Mark Messier as your leader or you are screwed - we got the Kovalev covered - but no Mess
English
@SamAMcKee Just listened to leafs talk - I would say this - the team responded in the moment just as their captain would have in the moment - the team goes as their leader goes - not right but what do you expect
English
@SamAMcKee What an absolute disgrace of a team and it speaks volumes for how much they care (or don’t care) about each other. I stuck through the Brophy, Mike Murphy, Wilson & Carlyle eras. I have never been embarrassed to be a leafs fan until now.

@ChrisKFilms @AthleteEchoes I’ll hear your Schiefele and Bédard point but Doughty is beauty - never rattled, always solid with the puck not sure why you wouldn’t have him Sanhiem however - yikes
English
@AthleteEchoes It’s disgusting and unacceptable. And this was so easily predicted too. Why the fuck is Colton Parayko and Drew Doughty here? Why is Travis Sanheim here?? How does Seth Jarvis or Sam Bennett make this team over Connor Bedard and Mark Scheifele?
English
Doug Armstrong and Jon Cooper cost Team Canada Olympic Gold. Disgusting and unacceptable to leave several of our best players at home.
Connor Bedard
Mark Scheifele
Evan Bouchard
Matthew Schaefer
Noah Dobson
Should all be on this team. It’s inexcusable they were left off.
Logan Thompson should be the starting goalie. It’s inexcusable they insist on starting the worst goalie in the NHL over him.
I don’t want to see these two ever anywhere near Team Canada again.
English
@beckytaylorgill Not sure what the problem is here - by either method the order is pretty much the same - Aus and Ned are skewed towards gold but pretty close to where they should be

So this is this not how Olympics medals tables work

A look at the medal table with just six days of competition remaining in the Winter Olympics 👀

Matt Tkachuk is who we think he is.
Germany is not a hockey powerhouse. Draisaitl is 200x the hockey player Tkachuk will ever be.
Leon is playing for his county knowing that it won’t medal and will likely get stomped in some games.
Tkachuk just can’t help but be classless.
Julian@julians_world
“Always the bridesmaid eh Leon? Always the bridesmaid, never the bride.” Matthew Tkachuk chirping Leon Draisaitl after his Florida Panthers beat Leon’s Edmonton Oilers in back to cup finals.

@wil_da_beast630 I’d honestly swap out Nash or Iverson or Steph for Magic too much overlap between Magic, MJ, and Bird. and the Dream for Shaq (but I’d hear arguments for other bigs)

There is not one.
This is God's starting five.
NBA Memes@NBAMemes
Form a lineup that beats Stephen Curry's all-time starting five

@ah_pod Jays treated him like an after thought and showed him no respect - why would he stay here? if they had have tried to negotiate with him early and show him they were interested with a reasonable deal he is still a Jay
English
nothing says "I want to win." like going from a team that was in the world series to one that missed the playoffs after a historic collapse.
John Foley@2008Philz
Bo Bichette: “My first priority is winning, and obviously this organization is doing everything it can to do that.”
English
@CraigSmith85085 @ah_pod Jays didn’t even try to keep him. If they had have shown him any respect he stays
English
@ah_pod He would have still gotten paid in Toronto if he had stayed. I am happy to have him out of the AL East fur a couple of years.
English
@zenofpuck @mikeinboston Dude would have stayed if they acted at all like they wanted him and showed him some or any respect - money is a thing but the Jays didn’t even try
English
@mikeinboston This whole Bichette saga is weird. Leaves a WS finalist, an organization he grew up in and a city where he was beloved, for a team that missed that playoffs in a city where he’ll be an afterthought. This was clearly all about the money.
