Also, yes. I think it's been 2 weeks of less action due to the All-Star and NHL Nations face-off. Glad to see more action to be back!

Don't forget the MLB 2025 Spring Training will officially begin today. :cheers:

USA needs to win tonight but sadly I think Canada takes it.

Very difficult to see a team with that much talent lose twice in the same tournament.

Well, I am not a PK fan...

But I have to agree with him 100% here. The NBA has a big problem and it all started when players and teams decided it was okay to charge fans hundreds to thousands of dollars for tickets and then let players sit multiple days a week for no fucking reason. "maintenance days" what the actual f*** - seriously. This causes an imbalance throughout the game - even those playing are half-assing it.

when did Bird, Magic, Jordan, Ewing, Shaq, or Kobe take "maintenance days" in an entire season much less a week?

It's beyond ridiculous. Hockey understands they need the revenue and they have to go out and get it - so they come to play on any given night to make sure the fans get what they have paid for.

NBA isn't going to fold anytime soon but they are taking on water.

PK can rant, and i dont always agree with him, but in this case he was spot on imo
