Some idiot thinks it's "precious" Sid gave an interview to an Asian broadcaster to grow the game. Yes, isn't he so wonderful for thinking of The Asians amidst the joy and blessing them with his boring-ass interviews where he says nothing at all.

I like the guy but ffs.

Connor McDavid was literally just in China, giving an interview on television there.

Just, wtf.

I don't think I've seen the Stamkos figure-skating commercial. (Or I've seen it and forgotten it.) Does anyone have a link? Google isn't turning up anything for me.

I'm pretty sure she wrote for one of the Ducks blogs pre-Puck Daddy.

Don't remind me. I'll vomit if the Giants win again, I hate them like I hate teams in my own division or the Cardinals.

I enjoyed it, and I will probably reread it, but I was disappointed that it turned out to be so Sid-centric. The Geno whump is so front-and-center at first, but most of his issues outside the pining get resolved pretty early on. He doesn't even get the brunt of most of the homophobia. His main character conflict for the second half is "How can I take care of Sid?"

Also, Sid's martyr complex and his dad's shitty parenting felt kind of... tacked onto the premise? You can get plenty of conflict in a fic about emergency soulbonding without taking things to that kind of woobie extreme. I'd be really interested to read a fic that was more about "how do two moderately emotionally healthy adults deal with this" than about one moderately emotionally healthy adult and one pathologically selfless adult.

Obviously those are personal preferences, though. I did like how the author handled the worldbuilding - the different powers that might come with a soulbond, and people having more than one, and the consent issues, and how someone might not bond until pretty late in life.

Wait, is he rooting for the Sharks? He used to do nothing but shit talk them. (I used to follow him awhile ago but he shit talked my team when they played the Kings and said something complimentary about PKane so I unfollowed, because I am petty, lol.)

I don't hate the Giants, but they're exhibit A in why I don't feel sorry for San Jose fans.

I thought this thread was about basketball and the Warriors. Now I'm confused.

The numbers from the pundits and the numbers from the models don't even mean the same things, do they? The models are saying "this team has this % likelihood of winning," whereas the pundit numbers are "this % of people think this team will win." Right? Or am I misunderstanding? Those seem like different things.

Talking about the possibility of the Bay Area having multiple championship winning sports teams this year, "it's an even numbered year" is a reference to the pattern of the SF Giants winning the World Series 2010, 2012, 2014.

Re: SCF Predictions Thread

That's right for the models, but I'm not sure how those pundit numbers are being generated and what they represent. I seem to recall reading that 17 out of 20 or so NHL pundits picked the Sharks winning, whereas only one USA Today person did.

I agree, I like this take on how the team reacts. I'm also disappointed that it ends where it does; storywise it makes sense but I like the part that comes next.

Yes apparently his dislike of Sidney Crosby trumps all, I would be less salty if he didn't usually dis the Sharks.

I'm glad for Kappy he's doing well and found friends in Toronto, but I still want fic where he broke poor Olli's heart.

Yeah, I'm sorry, he's a very public Kings fan. I will accept bandwagon hopping from Ducks fans, but not from someone who was insufferable in 2014 and also likes Patrick Kane.

I'm pretty sure the Sharks can't win because those championships plus the Dubs last year already used up all my sports championship luck for my whole life. Worth it, though.
