Pens lead the series, 3-2.
Puck drops at 8pm, but Nashville is so lazy it probably won't be until 8:20 or so.
first for pens

Yep, it's going to be wonderful to see Crosby lift the cup in Nashville. Think those classless hillbillies will chant something?
Cricket, to me, is an epic. It is unlike any other sport. Every single match is like a total battle between two teams, with battles within battles all over it. As Ian Chappell said, cricket is not a team sport, it is an individual sport played in groups. It is the sum of one team versus the sum of the other.
T20 is shit. Sometimes I have to walk around it and be like "eh it's okay" as to not offend people but being brutally honest, it's fucking garbage. It's all luck and power, there's no grace or subtlety or finesse. Cricket is elegant and smooth and skilful. T20 is brash and crude and juvenile. Whenever I watch a T20 I see no slips, no catchers, no interesting tactics. I see a bowler bowling a rank full toss, a batsman slashing aimlessly at it and getting caught. A bad ball, a bad shot - a wicket. It's almost always like that. A good ball in test cricket is beautiful.
To me, cricket is insanely unique and all of the uniqueness in it is in Test cricket and only test cricket. ODIs are this lame middle ground that honestly manage to be even worse than T20s at times. If you want wild swinging for the hills and bowlers deceiving batsmen with pace, watch baseball. Seriously, there is basically no difference between T20 and baseball. You want ""tight finishes"" watch basketball. T20 is an attempt to make cricket like every other sport on the planet and it sucks all of the things that make it unique and beautiful out of it. Imagine if golf made all the holes 2m wide and the courses 3 holes long. Imagine if tennis changed scoring to first to 10 rally wins is the winner. Imagine if rugby removed the penalty goal. Cricket shouldn't be about explosions and cheerleaders, because there are so many other sports that do that stuff so much better. Cricket is about tea and strike rates of 42 and leaving the ball and Alastair Cook and seam positions and how many slips you need and complex fluid dynamics. That's why I like it.
didn't read lol

In summary, it's the ultimate form of the game of cricket simply because it is the only form that is distinctly cricket. T20 and ODIs were invented to appeal to people who aren't cricket fans, and thus they are often more other sports than they are cricket. Cricket is supposed to be tedious and long-winded and epic and five days and all that shit, that's why it's good. T20 is just a diluted version because not everyone likes that shit.
Lol is this a copypasta
>watching sports past the age of 12
i seriously hope you guys don't do this.
lousy post
But I need to know which black guy won the sportsball game.
>Being Turkish at any point past 1919
Did you know that none of these teams have been relegated (ever) in their history?
>>76492509
And still they have less European titles than the Second Tier of English Football
Or just FC Porto
Can Lelbron score 60 in game 5?
>Can?
Yes
>Will?
No
He'll drop a comfy 40 point triple dub
Yeah and the Cavs lose 150-120
What's McGregor's reasoning for this fight? Mayweather is done, he's got nothing to lose and it should be an easy win for him.
McGregor is young, at his peak and the biggest star in the world. Getting BTFO by Floyd is going to ruin his brand and his appeal. He'll never be able to draw dimes the same way after this. Is the $100m purse really worth it?

Unceremoniously dropped by Man Utd. Played your whole career as mercenary with no honor, career ended with no honor. A fitting end eh?

you turn you head and see this. What do you do??
I order a new kid from a surrogate mother.
>>76615520
show the whore on the left my penis(she will automatically leave the autistic faggot for superior cock), grab the tits of the one in the right. (she'll automatically submit to my charm) and tell the fake blondie to fuck off.
As for the dudes, the one in the left would probably run away if I screech in his direction. The one in the middle, i just gotta watch out for his bite, no reason to have any beef with him though since i don't like the bitch, but if there was to be beef, hook him right in the kisser with my left. And the guy is the right actually doesn't look autistic so a classic bout between men would ensue. Winner takes all.
