my long-term goal is to publish this daily, right now we're going twice a week Monday/Thursday (Friday this week so I can put NFL Draft stuff in it)
Posts by Rodger Sherman
ok here's my pitch:
—you open your inbox
—you get an email from me, Rodger, about the biggest sports story of the day
—you scroll down a bit and learn about 5-ish sports stories you weren't paying attention to at all
—it's free

KNICKS IN FIVE
Without looking at the stat sheet I believe CJ McCollum has scored 94 percent of the Hawks’ points through two games
me watching Game 1 of a Knicks playoff series: I'm nervous but let's go Knicks!
me watching Game 2 of a Knicks playoff series: our opponents' physical weakness is only outpaced by their lack of morality
they must be sharp-shinned hawks, i saw one in the tree above my bird feeder the other day
NBC bringing the player intros from inside the arena was such an easy improvement on presentation I can’t believe the other channels weren’t doing it. So much better than another 3 minutes of talking heads telling us tonight’s game is must-win for both teams
LET'S GET SOME MORE $22.21s ON THE BOARD
I would not say “the cool thing is you dont need to be an expert” if my job was, essentially, to be an expert
this will be really fun to watch whether you're a fan of fencing or Drugs
i will watch the Tron fencing
the NCAA uploaded the entire women's bowling championship match and it has 100k+ views
lmao I could've phrased it better too!!!
rare Giving Credit To The NCAA Moment:
they upload SO MANY YOUTUBE VIDEOS of various NCAA Championships including a bunch of full-length broadcasts of games/tournaments
lol I'm not sure this is "beautiful writing" but it's true imo
Snapchat bets on New York Mets to win World Series
the Big East could have very easily just disappeared after that early 2010s realignment wave and instead it became pretty much exactly the thing its fans want it to be, which is so rare. not to mention her work with the WNBA and USA Basketball
absolutely true btw. Tough for me to quantify exactly how much more money I make now because my subscriber base has grown so much since I left lol, but I'm paying less than half to beehiiv what I would be paying in fees to Substack. Don't fear the jump if you're thinking about it
messed up to teleport directly into a category 5 hurricane, the only thing capable of closing a Waffle House
AND IN AN NBA FIRST, VICTOR WEMBANYAMA HAS DUNKED FROM THE 3-POINT LINE! PANDEMONIUM! THE ROOF IS GOING TO COME OFF THIS PLACE!
Tim Duncan:
basketball is a solved game and Victor Wembanyama is the solution
where did they find 26 miles to run a marathon in Delaware
this is wild coming from someone who has to be one the world's top 100 or so Sports Broadcast Locators
the Spurs fiesta color scheme is incredible and it's also impossible to imagine Tim Duncan wearing a uniform with fun colors on it
I can't believe NBA on NBC is actually doing "song featuring the words Sunday Night" and "players reading their name and college"
do you think Lenny Kravitz asked Carrie Underwood for advice about singing the words "Sunday Night"
incidentally the Pistons have not won a home playoff game since their current owner bought the team and put this logo on the court
