3/12/2020 9:11:16 PM

Delaware State-Morgan State game in the MEAC Women's Tournament Quarterfinals has made Sportscenter and has highlights for being the final NCAA game of the season.

3/12/2020 9:22:17 PM

nascar is still going

[Edited on March 12, 2020 at 10:03 PM. Reason : fire the video games back up if anyone wants to get rekd again in dynasty ]

3/12/2020 9:57:25 PM

I recall Earl playing in a dynasty, but that's a different poster, so rekt again?

3/12/2020 10:54:30 PM

good.

3/12/2020 10:55:17 PM

Well I mean everyone was calling me Earl back then but I was never Earl.

3/12/2020 11:13:22 PM

The day the sports world stopped

3/12/2020 11:23:57 PM

so you admit you're The E Man and tulsigabbard, but not Earl

3/12/2020 11:40:54 PM

Lizard brain material there

3/12/2020 11:43:05 PM

I think I'm suffering from dopamine withdrawal. This is so weird

3/13/2020 10:30:26 AM

3/13/2020 2:42:08 PM

Don't worry guys, UFC is still going on, because they're too tough to get sick

3/13/2020 4:36:48 PM

i heard bowling was on espn today

3/13/2020 8:17:16 PM

Are we supposed to talk about our feelings now or something??? No sports

3/14/2020 8:50:48 AM

I guess it's time for a 30 for 30 marathon. Maybe they could do a "Sports Century" marathon too. They could always show the 3 hour episodes of "Ring Side" that they used to show on ESPN Classic.

3/14/2020 8:56:19 AM

They should just show every 1983 NC State ACC and NCAA tournament game on loop.

3/14/2020 3:21:08 PM

I wonder what the ratings will be for tonight's UFC

3/14/2020 7:29:46 PM

I doubt many people who weren't watching UFC before will watch it now. Just because there aren't any other live sports on doesn't mean that people will suddenly decide "hey I want to watch two people beat the shit out of each other"

3/14/2020 8:51:34 PM

^ WWE ran an empty arena show Friday night and had their best rating in 2 months.

Wrestling is one of the things that's still trying to continue on. It mostly has to deal with Vince McMahon is a self-centered asshole and insurance payments, but believe it or not Wrestlemania on April 5th in Tampa is technically still on. It might be the only live entertainment event with mass attendance still on in the country for the next month. I imagine all political rallies are cancelled, especially that Biden now has the Democratic nod lined up.

by technically still on you mean the mayor of tampa has come out and said WWE needs to cancel it themselves or he will shut it down, then yes.

he doesn't and we don't know if primaries will go on. His two strongest states left are the only ones that have postponed.

3/15/2020 12:50:10 PM

Go to the soap box, Earl. This is a safe space.

3/15/2020 2:02:09 PM

These one shining moment parodies are hilarious

Way to go CBS for getting a live tiger interview on the masters replay for the 16th last year

Things more boring than watching golf live: watching golf replays

4/12/2020 5:44:28 PM

I loved it. Picked up at Tiger at 8th green, watched whole thing. Even paused when leaving the room

4/12/2020 5:54:46 PM

4/13/2020 8:46:21 AM

No sports forever

4/13/2020 10:50:51 AM

5/4/2020 6:22:50 PM

5/4/2020 9:05:01 PM

5/5/2020 12:59:19 AM

Well yesterday was refreshing with the racing triple header (Indy Car, NASCAR, IMSA). Next week the NHRA is back and so is MLS soccer!

7/5/2020 8:24:12 AM

Don't forget about F1

7/6/2020 9:17:31 AM

F1 was so sloppy that it was fun to watch

7/6/2020 1:50:10 PM

The sloppiness disguised the fact we're in for another Mercedes parade unchallenged upfront.

Maybe with the short season Bottas who half your F1 message board posters think is no more talented than a midfielder will actually beat Hamilton.

7/8/2020 10:07:40 AM

^^last 10 laps of the race were riotous fun. Rest not so much.

^yeah probably, but Mercedes as a team is withdrawing at end of this season.

7/8/2020 10:39:39 AM

^ Made me think to go check Joe Saward's F1 blog. I did, he had this tidbit:

Quote :

"It was interesting to note all the signage around the circuit from Aramco, Saudi Arabia’s state-controlled oil company. We know that Saudi is pushing to be involved in F1 more and more, with plans for a Saudi Arabian Grand Prix as soon as a circuit can be built, but it makes me wonder if perhaps the Saudis might also want to get further involved by buying a stake in Liberty Media. For those who watch the world’s business dealings, it has been clear in recent months that Saudi’s Public Investment Fund has been taking advantage of the economic upheavals to acquire shares in a string of companies, including Boeing, Facebook, Citigroup, Disney, Bank of America and even in Berkshire Hathaway. It also acquired a chunk of Liberty Media’s Live Nation. I cannot help but wonder whether they might want to buy a share of the F1 group. That would be a nice simple way for F1 to ensure its financial stability, allow Liberty to get some quick return on its investment, which is not doing as well as hoped, largely because of the pandemic, and to make sure that Saudi will have a little influence in F1 in the future. The country is looking to sport to build up international relationships and to help people to forget the more unsavoury parts of the country’s recent history."

Some neat Raleigh history about the Devereux Meadow baseball stadium downtown

Ivy league has cancelled all fall sports. Friendly reminder, they were the first to cancel basketball as well.

7/8/2020 7:11:38 PM

Inevitable nationwide.

UNC had 37 athletes test positive for covid19 as well, no word if those same tests were offered to regular students.

7/8/2020 7:53:16 PM

There ain't gonna be no ncsu football

Change my mind
