Into the Time Machine
We seem to have another historic day in Bitcoin with the price eclipsing an all time high (ATH) for about 1 second before crashing 6% (never change Bitcoin, never change). So, it is a good day to look back and see what was going on in sports the day of the previous ATH. That day was Nov. 10, 2021.
  • It was a Wednesday so a quiet day in the NFL with no games, It was week 10 in the season and the best teams in football were the Tennessee Titans, Arizona Cardinals and Green Bay Packers all with 8-2 records.
  • Anthony Edwards was the top scorer in the NBA that night with 48 points for the TWolves in a losing effort against the Warriors.
  • Kevin Fiala was the top scorer in a quiet night for the NHL (only 3 games) with 3 points for the Wild in a victory over the Arizona Coyotes.
Not really a banner day in the sports world but an fun trip back in the time machine to see what was going on in the wide world of fun and games the day of Bitcoin's last ATH.
Now go buy that dip.

On the bright side. It didn't work out very well for them in the playoffs that year.

None of the Raiders drama happened on Nov 10.
However, two days prior they released their second first round pick in a week. Damon Arnette was flashing guns all over his social media, plus he sucked. On Nov 2nd, Henry Ruggs killed a young woman and her dog driving extremely recklessly.
One month prior was the Gruden email scandal.

I scrolled thorough the days NFL news. Didn't really find anything of note. Basically was all just injury updates.
Interestingly enough in the NBA, Jokic got suspended for one game that day for a shoving incident with Markieff Morris. I thought about including it but because it was only one game it didn't really seem that notable.
reply
That shoving incident almost led to a brawl between Jokic's older brothers and the Morris twins.

I remember that. He talked about it in more detail of his side of the story in All The Smoke last year.
reply
Don't recall that.
reply
Markieff was out for a long time with a back injury. He and his brother were getting into it online with Jokic's big brothers and the league was concerned it might actually turn into something.

That was an insane time for me. I had no clue what was going on in sports. That was supposed to be my final week running my business but I ended up sticking around until Jan 5 to help tie up some more loose ends. My family had already moved out of the city so any free time I did have I was travelling back and forth. Crazy time. I don't even think I was paying attention to the bitcoin price.
