Until yesterday, my favorite sports thing of the past week and a half-ish had been going to the women's lacrosse semis! It was cold and wet but I enjoyed seeing lacrosse in person for the first time, especially with one game being quite good and the other being a kind of unbelievable display of dominance.

And then yesterday OU softball hit a walkoff HR against Karlyn Pickens after she'd been untouchable for much of the game, and that became my favorite.

The PWHL Finals had 4 OT games that each ended 2-1. No series in NHL playoff history has ever had four straight OT games finish with the same score.

Opening with a scorching hot take about jazz that's destined to lose you between zero and one subscribers is very much a "I've been doing this a whole year, and now I can finally take off the filter" move. The only acceptable follow-up is a 10,000 word ranking of all jazz genres.

By the way, I used to work one floor above DAZN headquarters. Everyone in my office refused to use the DAZN preferred pronunciation. "Dazzin" was most common, though I tried to get "Dan" to catch on based on the argument that the Z had to be silent.

Canadians don't really care about the IIHF "World" Championships either. It's nice if we win it, but otherwise forgettable. It's the NIT of international hockey.
