  1. I know but that’s a small mathematical component relative to tiger’s depth of field in a sport where winning once a year would be considered good. The depth of field is a far greater obstacle to winning than the top few guys.
  2. Much deeper field of competition for Tiger, too, which makes his accomplishments more impressive Holding all 4 majors at the same time is insane. I think the most Jack did was 2. You are right that run from tiger was a level of play unmatched
  3. Florida has now blown the lead. That part is over. They may actually get a mental boost from being past that, in a weird way. Facing elimination will add the fear of god they haven’t had. Don’t count them out Edmonton, maybe they really will pull it off. I was touting them coming in. Should be a great game 7
  4. It could also be Canucks Blackhawks 2011
  5. McDavid pointless. Dude folds
  6. Two sweetest words in sports
  7. He’s probably thinking about how fun these two deep runs were compared to golfing
  8. People should maybe just stop making predictions, nah? No one has been right yet lol
  9. The offside rule went in because of this - - - if it’s inconclusive upon replay at *real speed* call on ice should stand
  10. The offside replay system is so dumb. 5 minutes for something imperceivable to the naked eye
  11. Oh my gosh If it’s taking this long it’s a goal
  12. Both him and McDavid were Smythe favorites but McDavid maintained/elevated in the final and Bob has declined
  13. I think I’d credit the oilers more. Except for Bobrovsky - he’s been disappointing Game 7 could honestly go either way though. A lot will come down to first goal If it gets there
  14. With what like a 6 team league on an unfairly advantaged Habs team? McDavid is better than Harvey
  15. His sheer dominance over the others of his era gives him a bye right to the top 10 imo i think he’s the “best” to ever do it but yes, in terms of greatness I think he’s got a ways to go to catch the top guys but he’d be flirting with ~5-6 imo with a win here
  16. Shorsey is about as accurate a depiction as it is to say Canadians are maple syrup swigging igloo dwelling yokels who only say eh
  17. Where do you rank McDavid all time If they win the cup? Top 5? To me, I still have Sid ahead due to the 3 cups, but I bet you I’d be in the minority
  18. I know you want to frame Skinner as “those who think he has value” and “those who aren’t deluded or naive” but that’s not accurate - - - Sure, re: Casey. My point though was that he had a pretty good playoffs - we already know that
  19. I did, you can lean on this because you don’t have anything coherent to say but easier just to take the L 9 points in 11 games isn’t Jack sh*t Their captain said otherwise as did the stats
  20. I know but you asked what was controversial presumably re: the perception of others and he laid it out
  21. It’s not my fault the barometer you chose for your argument was “Jack-sh*t.”
  22. This is the part of what PA was talking about that I get
  23. It’s not just casuals. A massive factor is also where your priorities are for next season
  24. He literally explained this tho
