Age has no friends.
He is one of the best ever, with a legitimate argument for being the true GOAT. This guy has literally nothing left to prove.

It’s not impossible… he just needs a REALLY good couple of years. I believe in him
Edit: ah, it’s consecutive weeks… well looks like old jimmy is starting over from scratch. I still think he has a shot though

It's a national scene. They don't "pull" from a regional market.

That perspective completely diminishes how almost obsessive Rafi is about every facet of his tennis life. The dude is a nut who is mentally on another level. There is a reason he has achieved this and it is not because he got lucky and avoided injury.

You're wrong in several ways congratulations. You know they've had sudden death OT since 1928 right?

That single hit absolutely burned that team to the ground.

The way I would respond to this is to you should probably look at what the state statute says and decide if that's the case. You can't apply one states law to another state.
Ge is being charged with a misdemeanor because that's all Georgia State Law willl allow.

I’ll do you one better:
One team enjoys a 1-man advantage during a 6:30 overtime period, 5-4, the whole time. Only catch is the team down a man enjoys tie odds. If the period ends in a tie they win. No more ties ever. No zero-point games where nobody wins. And with 3:00 left in the last OT period one team is going to pull the goalie and play 6-on-4.
Also: WHY IS GOMORRA?

Here is some history. The top 5 teams to make it to 100 points all won the Cup that year.

My dog, you're not being objective or non-biased at all. Reread your comment, it comes off as "i know X is great, but ACKCHULLY, blah blah blah injuries..."
That's what sports are: anyone can go for a record, but not everyone can compete for those records. Injuries are just as much a part of sports as winning and losing are

How is it a meaningless record? If anything, it makes it that much more meaningful

This isn't bias?
> with that being said, federer and djokovic both have more weeks at number 1 than nadal so it’s not irrational to assume they would have not accomplished the same thing if not better.
You're trying so hard to not sound biased but it's super obvious in the angle you take on your response. You could've flipped it and said:
> if Nadal didn't have many more small injuries throughout his career, it's not irrational to assume he'd have the record of weeks at number 1
Of course that'd be biased too - see what I did there?

I was talking about all Boston sports, not just the NHL, but even with a hard cap having a large fan base lets you spend money on facilities, coaching staffs, nutrition programs, trainers, etc. Big markets are also enticing to players, who can earn more money through endorsement deals than they would in smaller markets.

They are so frickin solid though. They'd have to really shit the bed to not make it into the finals.

I don’t even follow tennis super closely, but you cannot say Fed is more accomplished. Rafa has 22 majors, Djokovic has 22, but Fed has 20.
