#Habs Martin St. Louis following 3-2 OT loss
“I thought they had really good sticks. I thought our execution was not as good, but it wasn’t terrible. Overall, I thought it was a battle out there, and I thought we competed. It’s a close game—it’s a fine line between winning and losing.”

I’ve seen a few pundits call what the Habs did today a rope-a-dope attempt. I don’t think that makes sense. A rope-a-dope is purposely ceding ground and defending so your opponent gasses themselves. I think that take discredits how good Carolina was tonight defensively. The Habs weren’t sitting back

From what I saw, the Habs were absolutely trying to create offence, they weren’t ceding ground. The Habs played very aggressive defensively, but when the puck was on their sticks they couldn’t find routes through Carolina’s structure. This was more of a chess match than rope-a-dope.

But hey, the Riders won on Saturday!
SASKATCHEWIN
That’s gotta be one of the better CFL preseason games I’ve witnessed.
Riders win a thriller 31-27 over the Bombers with a late touchdown. Sold out crowd in Saskatoon erupts. Great day at Griffiths Stadium.

“Touchdown Riders” has to be the greatest call in sports.
About those Knicks!
The New York Knicks have a 10-game postseason winning streak, the longest streak in franchise history.
If Knicks win the title, Mamdani gets to be Mayor for Life. Those are the rules.

The right-wing New York Post keeps trying to slam-dunk Mamdani but all they’re got are air-balls
To put into perspective, his ticket, priced at $700, wasn’t courtside. His seats would have likely been above the box seats. This was not a premium spot for a well known public figure, this is where the average Knicks fan who could afford playoff tix would’ve been sitting.

I’m seeing posts about an actual Iran deal. Hmmmm….
I guess we’ll believe that when it actually happens.

Fun with AI
As a science fiction writer I really fucking resent tech bros for ruining the phrase “artificial intelligence.” 80 years of it being all about cool androids and interesting computers destroyed by five years of “Spicy autocorrect making everything shittier for money.” NEVER FORGIVE.

On Saturday there were shots near the White House; thus these posts:

…when she gets a ticket anyway because the dog isn’t wearing a seatbelt!
