Penny Oleksiak throwing 1st pitch in Blue Jays match vs twins 

Clara Tauson wins her second WTA title in what is likely to be the last Luxembourg Open edition.

continues to be our bogey team on a regular basis

Garin was a highly touted junior aka the next Marcelo Rios. And he whored up a ton of points on clay since late 2018 when he entered Top 100 based on ITF events which is possible the way rankings work. Five ATP titles + some Masters 1000 QFs later he's a Top 20 ranked player.
 
If the indoor hard was fast like it should be, he would be quite vulnerable alright - though the scoreline is still shocking.

Zdeno Chara signed a 1-year deal with NY Islanders. I remember playing him with Islanders on my NHL 2000 game... like 21 years ago

Better get that speed climbing as separate event for Paris OG. might sneak a medal there

No surprise, Zakopane bails out from hosting the cross country at the upcoming U23 World Championships next February. They couldn't build a 5 km loop which was mandatory for the event - even with the COVID delay. The 3.75 km loop was approved for nordic combined but that's like a pariah event on the big scale anyway. Only ski jumping & NC will be held in Zakopane.
 
The 3.75 km loop could have been artifically extended but they are building a domed speed skating rink within the complex already which has priority over cross country.

The population of chicken, cows & pigs is waaaay bigger worldwide than the population of dolphins. I'm not surprised tough, if only some Eastern Bloc or Third World country or China did a similar thing the outrage would be enormous. But because it's done by one of the rich Western countries people will come up with a thousand of reasons why it has to be done and it shouldn't be stopped   Nothing to see here, get ready for more dolphins being killed next year!

Canada is responsible for the Atlantic cod population collapse and who cares about it these days? Nobody. Wealthy countries can always buy themselves a clear consciousness

Denmark belongs to the rich north Europe, no chance anything will be done with the dolphins in Faroe Islands. Ecologists are paid off to look away

Yuri Sedykh. Soviet Union. Winner of the gold medal in the men’s hammer throw at the 1976 and 1980 Summer Olympics and the silver medal at the 1988 Games. Holder of the world record in the event.

UEFA and CONMEBOL are the two strongest feds, if they are both against the biennial WC it's all over.

Daniil Medvedev denies Djokovic the CYGS. 6-4 6-4 6-4!

Seems like Blue Jays got too excited over that Yankees sweep since they lost to the lowly Orioles yesterday. Sigh. Meanwhile Yankees continue to slump as they got beat by Mets 10-3.

It is destiny then, Fernandez vs Raducanu US Open final. Nobody would see this coming two weeks ago. Far & away the most unexpected women's Grand Slam final in my lifetime

Sakkari getting abused out there. This is heading into all-teenage final (would be first such GS final since Hingis vs V.Williams in 1999 IIRC).

Got £10 on that at 80-1, thanks for the tip. 

A small bit of personal news, if y’all don’t mind me sharing…
 
I made my debut at Around the Rings this week. You can check out my first article here if you’d like: https://www.infobae.com/aroundtherings/articles/2021/09/09/vaccinations-to-be-required-for-participants-at-the-2021-winter-universiade-in-switzerland/
 
 As always, I appreciate the support I have received over the last few years from this community.

World Cup every two years is bullshit. And since clubs have a hard time releasing players for international duty UEFA would find it easy to get their support in this case.

Oh God, it will be Murray 2.0. The tabloids will be unbearable.

Don’t limit your challenges. Challenge your limits. #fightforit

It was NID. Andreescu should have been out of the tournament if only Golubic didn't choke.

Missed two KO rounds 
 
Anyway, congratulations Agger, Monzator, and Africaboy ❤️❤️
