Re: 2023 NHL Playoff Pool
Hey guys, so I do have my old pool set up this year (got a term position at a school and told some of the kids I would run it for them). I was gonna open up a Swamp version too if the usual 10-15 guys want in again. Maybe I'll start a separate thread to keep this one for Chedda's big money pool (whi...

Re: F1 (not fantasy, that's another thread) 2023
That was awesome. I am pretty pumped for this season. Even though it doesn't have the uncertainty of last year coming in with brand new cars, I think the cost cap combined with the exploding revenues of F1 have really closed the development gap between the haves and have-nots. For what it's worth, h...

Re: World Cup 2022 - Qatar
Canada gets the draw. Canada's first away goal against Mexico at Azteca in 41 years.
One of the biggest results in the history of the program. Finishing below 3rd now would mean a pretty big choke in a few winnable games (very much on the table).

Canada 1:1 Mexico at the half in Azteca, and it could easily be 3-1 for the Reds. Davies and Buchanan on the wings causing chaos for Mexico.

Here it is heading into the finals. Habs a bit of a pool buster but BSF and wlu going head to head with different Lightning.
And if BSF's buddy had actually picked a full roster he's probably comfortably out in front :)
