    Maxim Naumov Cheer Thread

    That was a great article. Really illustrated what a special person Max is.

    Ilia Malinin Fan Thread!

    He had the option of saying no to the USFSA's late request for him to skate the LP (it was a request and not a requirement), but he chose to put the team first and secure the gold.

    Congrats to Ilia on his first-place finish in the SP today. Looking forward to watching it tonight on NBC.

    Are you ready for some Football (NFL style) - 2025/2026 season?

    I felt bad for Drake Maye also. He looked overwhelmed most of the time. Wasn't expecting that. And I've got to say, I nearly dozed off through the first half of the game, it was that boring. At least the second half had more sizzle. And the halftime show was entertaining, even if I couldn't...

    Lindsey Vonn plans to compete despite a ruptured ACL

    I do feel kind of bad that Vonn's career had to end that way, with her being carried off the course in serious pain. She really has been an icon of the sport, and I don't expect to see her as a competitor again. :cry:

    In Memoriam

    Words no one would ever argue with, I think. I remember how much I liked the song "It's Not My Time." Kind of chilling to listen to it now.

    Skeleton is worse, IMO.

    OK, Matthew Stafford accepting his first NFL MVP award with his four daughters? Cuteness overload!

    Fall 2024-Summer 2025 New/Returning/Streaming/TV Shows

    They have also added a romance for Mama Bridgerton, so the books are definitely not being followed to the letter. To me, this show is simply a soapy, fun escape from reality. I like that the stories being told don't follow the books exactly. Adds an element of surprise.

    Are you ready for some Football (NFL style) - 2025/2026 season?

    Go Patriots! Nothing against the Seahawks, really, but I'm still a little bitter about Darnold leaving Minnesota and immediately getting a shot at a ring. The Vikings curse continues.

    Love, Balls and Courting: Tennis V

    I can't believe that Stan Wawrinka survived yesterday! Really looking forward to his match against Fritz. Even though it's unlikely he'll pull off the upset, it should be entertaining.

    Don't forget that Denver's stadium is, literally, a mile above sea level. That can be as difficult an adjustment as the weather, because the air is actually thinner (fatigue happens faster, ball travels through the air differently, etc.). I've heard commentators mention that a few times.

    I think he was never quite the same after he tore his Achilles. He was moving better this year than last, but still. Some never do get their full mobility back.

    Let's Talk Movies #36 - 2020 - Yep it is a new decade

    For all those here who didn't like "Marty Supreme," here's another take: Robert Downey Jr. Calls Timothée Chalamet’s ‘Marty Supreme’ Turn “A Generation-Defining Performance” in “A Decade-Defining Film” Apparently RDJ is a member of the Chalamet fan club. I can't remember the last time he so...

    The 2025-26 Awards Season Thread

    I have to say that after viewing all the photos from Sunday night, I think I like Kylie Jenner's gown the most. I don't always love her style choices, but that dress was really, really pretty.
