Basketball

March Madness wrapped up with some very exciting games. We'll recap the championship, the contest, and the fun we had at Predyx.
I've also decided how I want to do a similar contest for the NBA Playoffs. Better than that, though, is the Bracket Challenge we'll be doing with Global Sports Central. We also need to update our NBA Predictions and talk about the wild finish in the Western Conference, where multiple playoff teams fired their head coaches.

Football

The NFL Draft is coming up and @grayruby found a very cool new simulator. What are we predicting for the first round?
Also, we're continuing to very much enjoy the Aussie Rules contest and highlights.

The Other Football

UEFA Champions League is back and we're all trying to survive a little longer.

Baseball

Why was half my fantasy roster inactive? Plus, @grayruby wants to overreact to the early season results.
Also, the MLB Survivor Pool is starting up soon.

Hockey

@siggy47's beloved team enters the history books, by allowing Ovi to become the NHL's all-time leading scorer.

Cricket

I fell flat on my face in the T20k contest immediately after mocking @grayruby for doing the same. Oh well, upwards and onwards.
@Coinsreporter is also still running the perpetual CricZap contest, which I continue to do very poorly at. Is it time to inverse Cramer myself?
The Predyx market for the IPL has been one of my favorites.

F1

There are a couple of new F1 markets: Constructor and Driver, for those who may be interested.

Misc

We also need an update on USA vs the world.
Time permitting, I have some thoughts about how new sporting events like Chase might evolve in the sports ecosystem.
Let us know what else you want to hear and we'll endeavor to cover it.
The Other Football
hahaha, I love it!

The Other Football
This is savage!
You guys have stolen the word Football only to put it on some form of push and shove game. That you call Football neither uses foot nor ball.
CC: @Carresan (You gotta take stand against this attempt of bleshphemy on Football, the most popular and one and only.)

It's fine. It's just a matter of time I convince them what real football is. 🤣🤣

May the next Football World Cup make them realise the mistake they have committed!
reply
They will! All World Cup 2026 venues in the US will be NFL stadiums.
reply
They don't know anything about when the Football fans gonna make noise, the echo from these stadiums go everywhere around the world.

How much time does it take for you to write a post like this? So many links, so many mentions, plus a long text. You guys put in a lot of effort!
reply
Ha! I'm glad someone noticed. Yeah, it sucks, but I want people to have the links and it's better for SEO, so I'm trying to get in the habit.
reply
Stacker News will always remember your efforts!

You guys watching any of the NBA games? I'm watching the Grizzlies vs Nuggets game. Shaping up to be a close finish.
If the wins and losses line up, the West would have 5 teams all having the same 48-33 record going into Sunday's final day. Wild!
reply
Have been watching baseball tonight but following the scores on my phone.
reply
Wow! What a come back by the Nuggets at the end there. Complete collapse of the Grizzlies' offense near the end, can't even get a baseket. And Joker+Murray coming in clutch near the end. Good win for the Nuggets.
reply
Yeah I saw it was close late and then Nuggets pulled away. Have you looked at the tiebreakers at all?
reply
No, I haven't look at the tiebreakers at all. I'll wait until they finish the games on Sunday and just review the results. Don't want to spend time to try to figure out the tiebreakers. But it looks like you guys were correct, that the Grizzlies might just fall to the play-in.
Just switched on the Lakers vs Rockets game and Warriors vs Trail Blazers. Still lots of ball to play, but Lakers with big lead, same with Warriors.
reply
Clippers play the Warriors Sunday. That will be a huge game.
Wow fancy preview.
