If Brett Veach uses picks 9 and 29 on Monroe Freeling and Kenyon Sadiq, he should be arrested. OT is not the urgent Chiefs need the national media keeps insisting that it is, and Sadiq isn't actually good at football

My job has involved reading a lot of mock drafts in the last two months. The Chiefs have two first rounders so I've had to become an expert, so I have probably read dozens and dozens of them. And Danny Kelly's at The Ringer today is by far the worst one for the Chiefs I have seen and it isn't close

Jared Bednar in the playoffs against teams who play defense

I’m going to bed after the first real goal of this game, whoever scores it

It seems like putting the puck in the net that way is harder than doing it the traditional way, and maybe should be worth more than one goal?

Oh the Kings are some just some straight up goons

Basically wiped out my thought of having any long-haul aspirations for this playoff run. Doesn’t mean this series isn’t still gettable - two days off here is important to regroup. But that did not look like a team that could hold up long enough to win fifteen more.

I'm not sure their three best players can possibly play worse, and they basically lost by a possession, that's my moment of zen

Was all they needed in Game 1 because those guys made shots. I don’t think scheme was the issue I think it was the two of them out there looking like they ran the Boston Marathon this morning

Seriously I can’t get over it. How are the Nuggets the team with no legs, at home? Did Adelman run a full practice this morning or something? How were those guys that gassed? That’s embarrassing

F- Jokić game, he and Murray looked like they were on quaaludes the entire fourth quarter. Just a disgrace

If the Nuggets are the tireder team in game two of the first round on their home floor, these playoffs will not last very long for them

This is one of the worst NBA broadcast teams I have ever heard, I never wanna hear Scalabrine again

Putrid basketball

I need to just start checking into these games right at halftime. You told me this game was tied at half, that would make a lot of sense to me. But I saw how it got there and died a dozen small deaths as it was happening

Lucas Erceg has no fastball command and his off-speed pitches are non-competitive but other than that he looks great out there

Would you say that his defense has reached a Turning Point

Look, I’m a pretty big sports fan, I think I’d know if there was an NHL team called the “Utah Mammoth”. You’re trying to pull a fast one on me

taco’s

They lost to the Rockies once and gave up a whopping four runs in doing so and it broke his little brain

Setting aside the online… unpleasantness from last night, calling up (Rockie Great) Elias Diaz probably just suggests either Sal or Jensen picked up a knock that might keep them from being able to catch in the near term.

I’m not sure the Rockies have ever had a Wife Guy quite like Troy Johnston, he appears that he might be an all-time MLB Wife Guy and I love that for him

Pretty stellar work from the back of the Rockies bullpen tonight.

Troy Johnston has a chance to be a bonafide Rockies cult hero, which is also fun

A tweet from Royals catcher Salvador Perez that says “I don’t need a mental breather”

An instagram post from Royals catcher Salvador Perez responding to an article about his manager calling today a “mental break” for him “Fake”

On the bright side for the Royals, the esprit de corps remains strong and the beloved team captain isn’t angrily contradicting the manager on multiple social media platfo— hold the phone

I need less stressful hobbies. This has always been the case, but now that I am a parent of a toddler, it is extremely the case.

If they are unsuccessful, they are not going to win the series, and they know this, and it is in their nature to be dirty players anyway, so there you go

My primary takeaway from Game One of this series is that Minnesota is going to try and intentionally injure Aaron Gordon in every single game.

On Conley, yes, a flop merchant his entire career

If that’s three on Gordon I’m turning it off, this is why I can’t watch a single second of a non-Nuggets NBA game, there is no sport more poorly officiated and more unfairly officiated

Sure hope the Nuggets win the basketball game
