Thank You 2025 Blue Jays

 As most Jays fans probably did, I needed a couple of days to recover before starting to think about the Jays again. I know I'm also late on a Steelers reaction, being so bummed from the Jays I honestly hardly watched that game, but they won so that's nice! This post is going to be all positive, no reliving the plays that could've won the Jays the big dance but just barely didn't, there's tons of places you can go for that. This is just remembering the best team of my lifetime and giving flowers to the players that made this season so fun. I think I'm just going to go series by series and just pour my heart out on what I can remember. The best part of a deep playoff run is how it brings people together to watch like nothing else can, so I'll try to include some of those memories in here as well.  Daaaaaa Yankees Lose! Despite having the same record, all regular season the Jays took care of business against the Yankees and showed they were the better team. Th...

Steelers Weeks 7 and 8 Reactions

 Back a little late for week 7 but I missed that one and I should say things I guess. Honestly lumping these 2 games together kind of makes sense, they lost in similar ways both times, though the Bengals one is especially disappointing considering they're now coming off a loss to the Jets of all teams. Plenty to complain about, also some stuff to remain encouraged by! Back to back losses but still sitting a game and a half up on the division lead with more than half the season to play, I'll take it. Anyway, lets get into it.  Highest Paid Defense in the NFL I wanted to give them a slight pass for the annoying Thursday night loss to the Bengals in week 7. It was a division opponent on the road on a short week with veteran and Steelers killer Joe Flacco running the show now in Cincinnati. The entire game the broadcast was absolutely loving Joe Flacco's performance, but I don't even think he was doing anything overly complicated. The Bengals just had their star receivers r...

Dream Big With Me On Gradey Dick

Image
I love sports. The entire discourse today is going to be insanely political, I just want to escape into freak athletes putting a ball in a hoop. One guy putting a ball in a hoop at a high level this season is Gradey Dick. With the Raptors missing Immanuel Quickley and Scottie Barnes for the majority of this season so far, Gradey has emerged as the reason to turn on games. He and RJ Barrett have been doing a great job keeping the Raptors watchable despite missing two of their best players. At only 20 years old, Gradey is having a breakout season. I remember last year Gradey struggled so much in the NBA that he was sent down to the G-League to work on his game. I was at the first Raptors 905 game that Gradey played and watched him shoot 2-12 with multiple turnovers while looking completely lost on the court. To see him go from that, to averaging nearly 22ppg on 61% true shooting is nothing short of incredible. In this post I wanted to put on my insane optimist goggles and compare Gradey ...
