I'm running out of adjectives to describe just what's going on with the Columbus Crew right now. Tonight, they had a couple borderline calls on maybe-penalties go against them, they gave up two crappy goals, they played well below standard, and they still scored two stoppage time goals for a 4-2 win. It's almost comical.

No other team I've ever cheered for has had such an air of inevitability like this.

What happened at the Crew game? Goalie got a red and no back up? I read their other goalies were either away at international games or injured. What did he do to get sent off?

I went to bed right after he won set 3.
I have nothing against Tiafoe but what do you have against Fritz? I was just hoping for a good match. And now hoping Fritz can close Sinner (the cheater) out.

I wonder what the details are...Sinner failed two PED tests this year and there was little spoken of it and certainly no suspension. Sounds like a double standard.

As for Pegula. Cannot stand Sabalenka between her grunting on every shot and her drama queen BS after nearly every point. Disappointed Pegula couldn't win this one, she showed resilience against an over-powering opponent and had her chances but just couldn't close out the deal. At least set two was there for her to take. She might be a consistent top ten player who never wins a Major.

Nothing against Fritz. It was late and I made an assumption that turned out to be wrong. I’ll be pulling for Taylor today.

Was watching highlights from last night's game as an amusing thing to do between work tasks, and abruptly something that's been subtly weirding me for a while finally clicked:

Is it just me, or do these two look very similar to anyone else as well?

Anyone a CFB fan?

I’m a die-hard Oklahoma fan (don’t ask) actually follow them more than the CBJ which seems crazy.

From the *unbiased* fan, do we have a chance this weekend bc I don’t feel great!

I think you can beat Tennessee. The problem you will find playing in a stronger conference is that you can get to 6-0 with a couple of good wins, and then you have a key guy or two dinged up, and your team doesn’t take South Carolina seriously, and you blow that game. Then the doubt creeps in and you lose to Mississippi the following game. And now you are 6-2 and you still have to play Alabama.

Sorry; the same family connections that make me also a Preds fan have me cheering for the Vols. Nothing personal.

Yeah for sure.
