🚨🐊 Touchdown, #Gators. Tramell Jones Jr. runs it in from 2 yards out. 😅 Florida has scored in 481 consecutive games, an ongoing NCAA record.

Replying to @emilymkaplan
Believe Kucherov has his eyes set on playing with another one of the league’s top superstars and has a few players/teams in mind. We’ll see what moves the Lightning can, or are willing to, pull off.

The Milwaukee Brewers had people sharing a lot of sad stories over the past few days. A lot of happy ones, too. In a world of screens and silos, sports are one of our last bastions for connection. On a World Series of life and death, grief and joy nytimes.com/athletic/7734617…

Brandon Woodruff held the World Series trophy and told fans, "I know it means the world to you.” For some, the memories are bittersweet.

Had a couple of viz ideas this afternoon, neither turned out like I hoped, but figured I should post at least one. Here's all of Florida's plays this year based off whether they were successful or not.

Gave North Texas a mention in the newsletter today, so here's what the Mean Green's offensive machine looks like

Kentucky is such an interesting team because they're really good on downs 1 and 2 but really struggle on third down despite a lot of them being pretty doable.

This week’s CFB post is centered around the Big 12 after a rough weekend for the top of the conference, including Texas Tech and its middling passing game. Link: bfarrell27.substack.com/p/th…

Put some thoughts together on the Sharks now that we’re over 10 games in (and now that they finally have a regulation win). Macklin Celebrini’s still insane, but the rest of the team is still a work in progress. bfarrell27.substack.com/p/ga…

So far, the Calgary Flames are doing a perfect tank job: play well, and don't win games anyway because of bad luck at both ends. Flawless, no notes.

Early days look at who's getting jobbed. Here's the gap between GF% and xGF% through roughly 10 games.

Jakub Dobes gets called for interference in OT... the Sharks head to the power-play.

The problem with firing Dan Quinn is that I do not know what he actually does

Takeaway from today: everyone in the SEC is both good and bad. The Circle of Suck is going to be crazy.

Weekly CFB thoughts are up, featuring a Gators offense that's fallen off a cliff, just how bad Oregon's offense was against UCLA and more. Link: bfarrell27.substack.com/p/cf…
