OT: The Other Sports Thread IX - Go Astros go!

[Pompeius Magnus]

Which team are you cheering for?

I'm a lifelong Packers fan.

 

[Le Tricolore]

Brady sucks.

That’s a franchise so rich in history. You must have gone or wanted to see a game at Lambeau at some point?

Over the years I've been to the Lambeau , the Heinz , the Gillette, the Ralph Wilson and the Metlife. The Lambeau Field was real special, not gonna lie ! Not the area itself though, the stadium is pretty much in the middle of nowhere .

That’s how I imagined where Lambeau would be. What else is there to do in Green Bay?

You’re a true fan. I always admire fans who are passionate about a team.

It's something of a local running gag that everything between Milwaukee and Madison is just corn fields and pickup trucks .

Not by anyone local.

I was told about it by the people ( almost all from Milwaukee) I was with at the time . Pretty much in those exact words. There might be a bit of a bias there, obviously

Literally the first county out of Milwaukee going to Madison is the 3rd largest county with the 2nd highest population density in the state.

Like I said, I'm just repeating what I was told back then. I've been to Wisconsin only once , a bit more than a decade ago, so I really don't know much about the geography of the place myself ! Maybe the person meant to say something else, I really don't know.

Maybe they meant Milwaukee to Green Bay because that gets really rural, really quickly.

Impressive performance for Jays super star number 1 pitcher yesterday.

 

[GoodKiwi]

Five days later and Bichette's slash line has somehow improved from when I first posted it last week.

He makes it look real easy too . He's definitely a natural.

8 straight games with a double. According to Sportsnet's ticker no one has done that in 9 straight games since at least 1900. I assume they mean to begin one's career, but could be wrong.

 

[GoodKiwi]

Jones 5/5 for 67 yards and a TD in his first pre-season drive for the Giants.

 

[GoodKiwi]

9 straight games with a double now for Bichette. First player ever to do that in the MLB.

That to go along with his HR earlier.

And it's now confirmed the Jays bullpen is the worst in the history of baseball

 

[Runner77]

She did it!

Andreescu showed lots of class right here:

Just saw that; class and Canadian go hand in hand.

Saw Serena’s post game presser and she couldn’t say enough good about Andreescu. Ohhhhh Canada.

According to Live WTA Ranking, Bianca jumps to #14 in WTA rankings as of tomorrow.

On this day last year, the Mississagua, Ont., native was ranked 208th in the world. She’ll wake up tomorrow at 14th, the highest-ranked teenager on Earth.

Andreescu displays limitless potential with historic Rogers Cup win - Sportsnet.ca

 

[Habsawce]

My Chiefs are looking good guys. Defense still looks shaky but there are playmakers out there and a new scheme. The offense, look out. Could be another record breaking year.

Legion of Zoom baby!

That Simone Biles tho? That triple spin double flip whatever you wanna call it dismount defies common sense.
