@Studio B Ben - I've never been a supporter of Duke - frankly it's part of why I picked 'em since I figured that kind of karma was needed.

I win either way - if Wisconsin wins I think I finish 3rd in a money pool I'm in.

Matt from Springfield:

This shows room for improvement--I say start a "shooting sports" league for men's peeing -- points awarded for how close you are to the target. It will encourage more direct aiming overall! Maybe a "women's league" could be established if successful...

Hi Bronwyn, Jim, Sportsyfolk! :)

Two problems with ladies' rooms: 1) women who "hover" rather than sitting and get pee all over the seat for the rest of us to sit in, and 2) women who attempt to flush items that ought to not be flushed.

Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:17pm
Caryn:

@Carm: not being from Iceland, I'm not that familiar, but since beer was banned in Iceland until 1989 and the Icelandic people like to get incredibly drunk, I think they gravitate more towards their brennivín, even though they have beers. Us Finns on the other hand are big beer-drinkers. For further reading: en.wikipedia.org...

If both the Chargers and Raiders go to L.A. one of them (probably the Chargers) would be swapped into the NFC
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:28pm
Matt from Springfield:

Stay Sportsy, San Diego!!! They already took your Clippers, don't let 'em take the Chargers too!! I kinda like the Chargers, and their non-LA location prob has something to do with that.
Avatar 6:28pm
Danne D:

Fun Fact - Chargers QB Philip Rivers refusing to sign an extension b/c he would not want to relocate to L.A. if the Chargers move there. Because L.A. is so far away from San Diego I guess...

@Danne D: Yeah, he's talked about how tied he and his family are to San Diego and wanting to stay there for family reasons. Which sounds logical coming from him, but could also be a very good bargaining chip: "Stay in SD and I'll sign"

Yeah but Rivers doesn't have the leverage to keep the team from moving - it's just sorta bizarre because L.A. is closer to San Diego than any current NFL city.
Avatar 6:38pm
Studio B Ben:

No, it's true, but I think the owners really like Rivers at QB, so it could be an incentive for them to make a SD stadium deal happen.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:38pm

@Carm: yeah, for a truly Finnish experience, Olvi or Kukko are your best bets. Some of the microbrews are also apparently great, but I suspect those will be really hard to find abroad.

The NFL is determined to put a team in LA, and this is the latest crazy scheme. The Raiders and their new dunce owner Tommy Boy used it to negotiate a new deal with Alameda County and City of Oakland.

Danne D:

"MLB officials believed Hamilton violated his treatment program with the recent relapse, while the players' association disagreed. After representatives from Major League Baseball and the union on the Treatment Board deadlocked on the issue, an arbitrator was called upon to break the tie.

The arbitrator said Hamilton did not violate terms of the agreement, although the reasoning behind the decision was not made public."
