    Knicks/Pacers - Who Ya Want?

    Seems wild to me that critical information can be withheld. Maybe that’s why I don’t really bet.

    Knicks/Pacers - Who Ya Want?

    Sports betting is why there should be complete transparency with injuries. It’s ridiculous that there is any obfuscation allowed.

    Knicks/Pacers - Who Ya Want?

    Celtics-Knicks would be a blast. I'd love to see how Tatum, Brown and (hopefully) Porzingis respond to an electric MSG booing their every move. Brunson in Boston would be entertaining as hell. I think the Cs can beat either of these teams, so give me the bright lights of Broadway. Will be a...

    Shertenlieb Show? Rich Radio? - mornings on ZLX

    I've been saying for quite some time now that the best moments of T&R once Fred started flaking out were during the Rich/Ryan Johnston pairing. He'd be better than any of the co-hosts that were announced today, I suspect.

    Chris Sale (plus $17mil) traded to Atlanta for Vaughn Grissom

    Sale was gone after this season had we retained him. The Sox clearly weren't preparing a roster with title aspirations this season. We got an intriguing piece back that could end up being a major contributor. I'm happy for Sale that's he's had a good start to the season, but I really can't...

    The Bill Simmons Thread

    JMOH took the baton from me. Sure, that's our collective recollection, and that's what anecdotal evidence suggests. But if anyone has real data on that dynamic I'd love to see it. Yes, the Bills lost in Miami 2 seasons ago in September. They year before they drilled the Phins in Miami in...

    Shertenlieb Show? Rich Radio? - mornings on ZLX

    You’re kinder than me. I think Ted Johnson is terrible. Just a bitter, unfunny meathead. I agree that Hurley and Giardia are fine as guests. How they do for 4 hours is TBD. And I don’t know Wilder at all. Regardless this sure looks to be a Pats-centric sports show, which ain’t what I was...

    Toucher and Hardy: The new 98.5 morning show

    Mea culpa. Judging from his announced co-hosts, apparently Rich is going to run a sports show. So he appears to be setting up an apples-to-apples ratings fight.

    Shertenlieb Show? Rich Radio? - mornings on ZLX

    Ooof, not sure about this direction. Are any of these co-hosts capable of being entertaining in non-sports conversations? And can they keep Rich on the rails during his more frenetic moments?

    5/15 - G5 vs. CLE - Gentleman's Sweep

    It was never in doubt. Just a matter of when they’d separate.

    5/15 - G5 vs. CLE - Gentleman's Sweep

    That last Al 3 was a major game vibe enhancer.

    Here we go, step on their necks bow.

    5/15 - G5 vs. CLE - Gentleman's Sweep

    Nothing can be done about that, I’ve been told.

    5/15 - G5 vs. CLE - Gentleman's Sweep

    Morris is going wild, but they’ve only made 12 threes overall. That should not be enough to be this close. And yet…

    5/15 - G5 vs. CLE - Gentleman's Sweep

    Hopefully 6 becomes 12 soon and then we can grind to a dub.

    5/15 - G5 vs. CLE - Gentleman's Sweep

    It’s amazing that with the money WBD and Disney spend on the NBA they employ so many garbage announcers. The NFL wouldn’t stand for crews like this.
