April 24, 1987 - GAME 1
Hi here’s a Steddie Drabble from my latest sports discovery while deciphering basketball stats.
gen * wc 1,174 * established relationship
The 1986-87 Indiana Pacers season has been a doozy. Steve would never had guessed that the Pacers would make it to playoffs. Jack Ramsey, the long standing coach of the Portland Trail Blazers recently hired for the Pacers, leading the team into playoffs for the first time since ‘81.
And for the first time in four years, Steve has someone to watch the playoffs with.
When Eddie was still in the hospital, Steve and Wayne would meet in passing, alternating sitting by his side to keep him comfort and to keep him safe. The first two weeks, Eddie was in and out of consciousness, and “unable to protest when I put on the game,” Wayne half joked, nodding to the Cardinals-Cubs game on the television. Steve nodded, sitting down on the other side of Eddie as they watched the game in silence. A few innings in, Wayne scoffed. “You tellin’ me, this Rick Sutcliffe is worth a buck and a half?”
Steve couldn’t help but smirk. “The Cardinals are the ones paying almost 2 million for a short stop.”
“And a damn good one, too,” Wayne added. “Wayne.”
“Steve,” Steve added, properly introducing himself.
Wayne hummed, as if he was thinking something over. “I wondered if that was you. He doesn’t shut up about ya.”
“He’s … something special,” Steve said softly, and he was sure Wayne knew.
And when Steve and Eddie started to date, game nights with Wayne became more common. They started by watching the World Series (an unfortunate season for the Cubs, but at least Wayne’s Cardinals also failed to go into post season). Then into football season (a disappointing season from the Colts). Then a couple of hockey games when the Blackhawks were nationally televised, but the real excitement hit when the Indiana Pacers were playing.
Wayne and Steve were pretty excited when the Pacers made it to playoffs.
On game nights, one of the men would be in charge of grabbing supper, usually pizza or something from the diner on the edge of town. Wayne and Steve would settle in the living room as Eddie went to his bedroom, working on a new song or planning the next campaign. He enjoyed his alone time, allowing the creativity to flow and not worry about if he’s ignoring Steve. During halftimes, Steve would find his way into the bedroom, enjoying time with Eddie before the game picks up again.
Steve was setting up the living room and finding the channel for the first Pacers playoff game. Wayne and Eddie should be off of work and be home soon. Eddie was on supper duty tonight.
Gravel crunched under tires, signifying that one of the two had arrived. A loud slam of a car door confirmed that it was his boyfriend.
“Hey, baby —“ Steve started to greet Eddie.
“What do you mean a basket is called a field goal?” Eddie asked dramatically.
“I — what?” Steve asked a wrinkle to his brow.
“A field goal,” Eddie supplied. Steve watched as Eddie set up the three meals —three? — in the living room. Usually Eddie takes his into the bedroom before the game starts. “It’s fucking basketball. They’re called field goals?”
“I mean — yeah. Field goals,” Steve said, watching Eddie get settled into the couch, burgers and milkshakes spread out on the coffee table. “They’re the two or three pointer shots. If they score, it’s a field goal. They’re mainly called that … in stats.”
“Yeah,” Eddie said, stuffing fries into his mouth. “I read up.”
“On … stats,” Steve said, sitting down on the couch, nearly on top of Eddie. “On basketball stats?”
“Yeah,” Eddie said. “I wanted to know what’s going on in the playoffs.”
“You want to watch with us?” Steve asked.
“Yeah,” Eddie said, leaning into Steve. “You said this was a big deal, so I thought I’d join in.” He took a sip of his milkshake. “Is that … okay?”
“You, Eddie Munson, want to watch basketball with us?” Steve asked. He extended his hand, pressing the back of his palm against Eddie’s forehead. “Are you okay?”
“Yeah,” Eddie laughed, swiping Steve’s hand away. “I asked Lucas if he could give me some pointers.”
“For the Pacers game,” Steve repeated.
“Yeah,” Eddie said with a slight huff. “He said to keep an eye on Chuck Person, said he wouldn’t be surprised if he won Rookie of the Year. He said the Pacers improved drastically with the coach change. That they went from, what, a record of 26-56 to 41-41? That’s fucking impressive. And it looks like a lot of that depended on Person averaging 18 points per game? I mean, he’s no Magic Johnson or Larry Bird or Michael Jordan, but that’s still fucking good, right? For his rookie season?”
Steve couldn’t help but stare, his mouth slightly agape. He had to be dreaming, right? This is his boyfriend rattling off facts and stats in front of him, right?
Eddie waved his hand in front of Steve’s face. “Stevie?”
Steve all but leaped into Eddie’s arms, crashing their lips together in a hard and clumsy kiss. Eddie, known jock despiser, learned sports statistics for him?
“If I knew this was the response I’d get,” Eddie mumbled into the kiss, “I would’ve told you Colts stats months ago.”
Steve groaned. “It wouldn’t have worked as well. Colts sucked ass this season.”
“I know something that sucks good —“
“Please, for the love of God,” Wayne groaned from the front door. The two nearly split, pulling off of each other but staying pressed against one another on the couch. “Not in front of the Pacers.”
“Eddie’s gonna watch with us tonight,” Steve beamed. Eddie took note of his smile, of the energy Steve gave for just Eddie being interested in watching sports with him. Maybe he could get enough cash together to buy three tickets for the next Cardinals-Cubs game.
“Wondered when he’d get his head out of his ass and join us,” Wayne laughed, sitting in the recliner, grabbing his dinner from the coffee table. “Who you got on the game, Eds?”
“Depends on if we can keep the ball away from Wilkins,” Eddie said around his fries. “Ending last season with an average of 30 points per game? Need to keep him away from the net.”
“Jesus,” Steve mumbled, taking a long look up and down Eddie. “Wayne, you might need to take a long smoke break during halftime.”
“Already planning on it,” Wayne sighed. “Turn on the game.”

Naruto Modern AU/Hollywood pt.2 - Kiri & The All-Star Team
There is a silent hierarchy among all countries and the terrible assumption that bigger countries are better than smaller ones. The large presence and funds of various territories, like the country of fire, wind, earth, and lightning, overwhelms and overshadows small nations, especially in sports where each country dominates certain disciplines.
The land of fire (Konoha): badminton, soccer, gymnastics, and martial arts
The land of lightning (Kumo): Tennis, basketball, and athleticism
The land of earth (Iwa): cross country, marathon, weightlifting, and cycling
But in the last decade, the land of water emerged in the sports scene. It was coming out of years of political conflict that left the country in shambles with record levels of poverty, putting them at the bottom of the economic ladder. Not only was it a smaller nation, but a lot of its endeavors and way of life were unknown to the rest of the world because of the long-lasting reign of violence that controlled the country for decades.
Well, Kiri has been perceived as "these islands far away" with the highest crime rate in the world for the longest but Its newly found peace brought interesting things; industrialization, a new economy open to the world, the exportation of its products, but specifically the creation of various social classes. This was not the case before, since it was, the government/military vs the rest of the population in poverty.
This modernized economy brought the country a new middle class and other social statuses. It recently started experiencing the concept of celebrities like the rest of the world and most are athletes.
Being surrounded by large bodies of water, any form of water activity has always been intuitive to them. To the point where many accuse them of having a "genetic advantage". Athletes from Kiri/Country of Water can now join world competitions and are killing the game in the water department and making a serious name for their country. They are undefeatable in all forms of swimming kayaking, boat racing, surfing, diving, synchronized/artistic swimming, water polo, etc. Now most of the competitions for these sports are held there.
Kiri is getting recognized overseas for many things, but recently certain people have attained celebrity status for unconventional reasons building a solid international fan base
Mei Terumi, the female president, for her breathtaking beauty
Haku is the new sensation in figure skating. A discipline Kiri started to dominate recently but the young man’s high level of skills made him reach first place in all competitions. His likeability, pure heart, and pretty looks opened many doors for him, he often features in variety shows and commercials. He is also a good friend of the #1 YouTuber/streamer and boxer Naruto Uzumaki and often appears on his channel
Ever since basketball was invented, Kumogakure dominated the sport, but in the past year, the mysterious national basketball team of Kiri has made a name for themselves.
Overnight, a team of 195 cm tall men came out of nowhere and climbed up the world ranking to second place. The team’s name is the Swordsman of the Mist and the current coach is Gengetsu Hozuki It may not seem like it, but many of the members have interesting inheritances and backgrounds.
Kisame Hoshigaki: leader and tallest. Surprisingly decent from a prestigious clan from Kiri. Kisame is an academic genius, who has a diploma in biology from the most prestigious universities in the country of Water but decided to use the basketball scholarship he received instead.
His son Shizuma Hoshigaki is a part-time social media influencer. He is problematic in his own way, but not enough to be canceled yet. Shizuma is not worried because he is a trust fund kid but wishes to outshine his father as a professional swimmer. The jokes write themselves since he barely practices the sport but is among the greatest and fastest the world has to offer (his shark DNA, I guess). He is dating Raiga’s daughter Buntan, and her father is really salty about it
Zabuza Momochi: nobody knows about his background. He is the most muscular. Him and Kisame get the most brand deals and promotions. Zabuza is also one of Haku’s coaches. He took him under his wing under unknown circumstances. He is the first to recognize the boy’s unique talent and aiding him in his journey as an athlete regardless of their differences. Zabuza always had a sweet spot for Haku and considered him like a son. So, he is often absent to prioritize the figure skater’s training.
Kisame knows Zabuza well, they are lifelong friends. The leader lets him get away with missing practices (even if it drives their coach insane). His best friend is a man of a few words, and above all works extremely hard and exercises double their training schedule in his own free time.
Juuzo Biwa: He is the third star player along with Kisame and Zabuza (The Killer Trio). He has no sense of personal space. Ironically, he is the wealthiest because he owns a successful brand of luxury cars coveted by the new high class. He is genuinely funny, and the variety show's favorite.
Raiga: Loudest laugh. Lost a lot of money due to his jewelry addiction. He smokes a pack with the blood of his enemies. The mother of his child is still getting child support payments, and he is bitter, even if they’re legally separated.
Because of His herratic behaviour and anger issues, he is kinda of a self-made outcast. The other members can cooporate as co-workers and teamates but nothing beyond that (Raiga has is own circle of friends). Since Raiga is so unhinged, no matter their coach's efforts, him and Zabuza do not get along.
Hassaku Onomichi: professional dunker. He befriended a lot of Kumo basketball players. He often gets caught up in beefs with anyone.
The popularity of the basketball team has offered them fans all across the world for their incredible talent, pleasant chemistry, unique sense of humor, and good looks to the point where tabloids from Konoha have launched a misinformation campaign to stain their image and effort to defend their basketball teams after getting constantly crushed by those "foreigners".
The last match of the International Basketball League’s series opposing The Swordmen of the Mist from Kiri against The Lightnings from Kumo was the most anticipated and heated match ever organized. Taking place in Konoha, it made record engagement and attendance. For the first time in history, Kumo lost the finale to first timers. The news traveled all across the world and, certified Kiri’s team's celebrity status since they won.
With their success, many shady investors like Gato started to take interest in basketball as a means of proposing Kiri overseas and for other shady dealings. The weight of all those rumors pushed many fans who knew Gato’s involvement in Haku’s career to beg him to change his manager/owner ASAP.

Tuesday, 14 November, 2023.
I heard on the Weather Channel that all of America is suffering from the excessive heat this Fall.
It was yet another perfect Fall day at the Barn. Sunny and 60 degrees.
Warmup:
3 Rounds
15 Weighted Back Raises (35/26 KB)
30 Second Squat Holds
All of the girls did the warmup.
Strength
Back Squats: 2 / 2 / 2 / 2 / 2 / 2
Build To A 2 Rep Max
Ed/Shane=275 Timmy/Dana/Herb=215 Chad=195 Tom=175 Sue/Alicia=105 Linda=95 Shannon/Sabrina=85 Kayla/Sandy=75 More Girls than Boys.
WOD:
For Rounds & Fractions
10 Minute AMRAP
12 / 10 Calories Any ERG
8 Perfect Pushups (E= 5 HSPU)
Note: Coach recommend sharing an ERG with a friend and many did but that turned out to be a coaching error since there were 4 rowers and a ski-erg not in use.
Timmy/Ed=9* Coach=8 1/2 Sabrina/Sue=7 1/2 Shane=6 1/2** Chad=6 1/2 Tom=6 (RX-) Linda/Shannon/Sandy/Kayla/Alicia=6 Dana/Herb=5 1/2**
Cool-Down:
Anyhow Dips: 5 / 5 / 5 / 5
Anybody Dips... ??
Notes:
Unfortunately, I can't pick on Kayla or Alicia who were always such fun targets for my sarcasm, and Robert hardly attends since he is busy coaching basketball at BA, therefore the blogs are short and not entertaining.
Last Thursday's blog I vented a little because I tend to bring 50 to 75% of the wine to the picnic, and still people have to raid my cellar at the end of the party. I regret (?) that this bothered Brother Tom who told me tonight that he will bring 4 or 5 bottles this Thursday. I told him that was an over reaction and that I was certain there would be a half dozen heavy drinkers who in 10 years have never carried a box of Gallo to the Barn who were itching to contribute. Never-the-less (I love using that word) we will likely be inundated with guilt-wine this Thursday.
In a related but more acute problem, bring a case of water (H20) instead of wine. We are getting low since you are all suffering from the Fall heat and have been guzzling water to survive.
Thursday we will enjoy WOD/Wine/Snacks. The Weather-persons are uncertain as to what the weather will be since Thursday is so far distant in the future. So I made note of the red sunset, stuck my spit-on finger to the wind, and deduced that we would suffer thru another Fall evening of 60 degrees (+ or - 10) with a 20% chance of light rain. There is a zero % chance of Hurricane, Tsunami, volcano eruption , or asteroid strike; a less than 1 % chance of earthquake even though we are near the New Madrid Fault Line, land-slide, flash-flood, or tornado; with the greatest risk being a grass-fire which Shane predicts as being 20%, primarily due to my tendency towards pyromania.
Note #2:
Due to a complete lack of interest on the part of the exercisers, there will be no Wednesday Mom's workout. Cherrita was ready to ride, as she was last Wednesday.

Problem with girls sports.
I played soccer and basketball when I was a kid. And my favorite experiences were 1. The year in basketball where we were taught by this dad who accidentally taught us how to block the guy way where we you cover your balls and also taught us how to fowl the other team if necessary 2. The year in soccer where I got bumped down to the third rank (1st is best, 3rd is worst) where we didn’t have an actual coach who knew how to couch girls and had only couched boy’s baseball who was Very generous with compliments. And 3. That year I had to play basketball at the Y with an all boys team even though the guys never passed the ball to me.
The key theme of these three years was that the coach was mentally coaching boys.
I quit basketball bc I wanted to focus on soccer and I was ready to go all the way with soccer. Like ready to play through college. But I ended up quitting after freshman year of high school because girls. sports. are. toxic.
Girl’s sports are literally the worst. I fucking loved soccer. But I hated it every time I had to play on a girl’s team. Not that I didn’t like playing with other girls. I did. It’s whenever the coach treated us the way coaches are supposed to teach girls.
With boys, sports are a way to vent aggression. It’s about channeling aggression into something constructive. It’s about working within a team. It’s about finding a community.
But with girls, people are always telling girls to be aggressive. As in: with girls, it’s about creating aggression, as though girls don’t have any already.
This means that, when coaches treated us like girls my fellow teammates because horrible to be around. The whole atmosphere plummeted. Bullying became encouraged. As in my freshman year couch would sometimes join in when kids were picking on other girls. Meanwhile with they guy teams there were always more compliments within the team. People were just nicer. Even the guys who wouldn’t pass to me were just. Nicer that the girls on most other teams.
But there’s more, because on top of the aggression thing (channeling and controlling vs forcing aggression out) there’s also that people take boy sports more seriously.
On the teams where we were treated like guys, it was always about how we were going to win the game. The practices were… practical. We learned things that would actually help us in games. We learned play. I that one basketball year (number 1) we created six different plays and when we dribbled the ball in we’d shout a number (sometimes the coach would even hold up a card) and we’d know what to do. I loved that. Bc we were actually trying to win these games in practical ways. Not just “giving it our all” but learning plays.
But with girls sports…. I would usually finish the season off with less skill than I started. We’d do mindless drills and sometimes we’d run hills but like. Idk. It wasn’t about winning. It was always about “having fun” or “working as a team (but not really).” One time we spent fridays doing nothing but scrimmages. Which…. Was lame. Because that many scrimmages is just useless unless you’re trying out new things. We’d do endless practices where we’d just… pass the ball back and forth between different configurations of cones. We were high schoolers we knew how to pass a ball.
And then there’s about possession of the ball. With girls, we were told to almost never dribble down the field/court. Passing is the only way to go.
But with guys you pass when you have to. If you see an opening you fuckin take it. You pass when your in a tough spot. You pass when the play says you should. But with girls you only dribble when no one’s open. Which is just no fun, honestly. Just basically standing still and passing over and over again is eh. It’s also less fun to watch and just not as good a strategy. Those years where it was a girl league but we were taught like boys? We were head of our league both years. Because other teams just… could not keep up with how prepared we were. Could not keep up with us. Because we were actually taught how to play.
And beyond that we LIKED each other those years. Whereas I HATED the girls in those other years. I had friends, close friends, who were great until we were on a team together and then they became NASTY and so did I. Bc the coaches were telling us to be horrible and aggressive and to find the inner monster.
Just. We need to stop assuming girls are not already aggressive. We need to let girls actually play sports. For the same reasons guys do. And more girls will play!
Half the girls on my freshman team quit. Even the ones who were star players. And the ones who were the meanest and cruelest of the lot. Bc… it’s just a horrible environment.

New Post has been published on https://toldnews.com/sports/basketball/n-b-a-rules-james-harden-was-not-fouled-on-3-point-attempt/
N.B.A. Rules James Harden Was Not Fouled on 3-Point Attempt
OAKLAND, Calif. — Stephen Curry made a point Monday of studying all 16 3-pointers James Harden attempted in Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinals.
He wants to be better prepared to defend the Houston Rockets star who has such a knack of drawing his man in to generate contact as he jumps forward to release the ball from long range.
Who knew a debate about landing space would be all the talk going into Game 2 on Tuesday?
Curry said he was disappointed that the officiating has taken over the narrative of the series, and pointed out that Golden State could exhaust its energy on the same issue.
“So what are you going to do about it?” he said. “Hopefully, Game 2, it’s about the game and how we play and making shots and the energy and intensity that we need to play with, knowing what’s at stake, and that becomes the conversation for sure.”
A day after the Rockets complained about the officiating following a 104-100 loss in the opener of the best-of-seven series, the N.B.A. handed Houston’s Chris Paul a $35,000 fine for “aggressively confronting and recklessly making contact with a game official,” while also confirming in its Last-Two Minute Report that no foul should have been called on Draymond Green’s defense of a 3-point try by Harden with 10.1 seconds left that could have tied the game.
The report did, however, state that three Golden State fouls were missed — including two against Curry, each of which would have resulted in his fouling out.
On the 3-point attempt that Harden was adamant was a foul, the N.B.A. said, “Green jumps in front of Harden and would have missed him if Harden hadn’t extended his legs.”
Curry, who the league says fouled both Harden and Eric Gordon in the last two minutes, said the Warriors must understand the “tendencies” of a shooter like Harden to avoid putting themselves in a position where it’s a tough call for the referee on whether the Warriors have encroached on someone’s landing space.
In addressing the issue, Harden referenced a play two years ago during which Kawhi Leonard, then of the San Antonio Spurs, was lost for the season with a left ankle injury in Game 1 of the Western Conference finals against the Warriors. Leonard came down on the foot of then-Golden State center Zaza Pachulia.
“That can change the entire series,” Harden said after Sunday’s game. “Just call the game the way it’s supposed to be called and we’ll live with the results. It’s plain and simple.”
The Warriors are surprised the Rockets have made their grievances quite so public, with Coach Steve Kerr saying it’s unfortunate this became the focus in a series between the two powerhouses of the Western Conference.
“I thought we were going to talk about the game,” joked Kerr, who pretended to flop Monday on San Francisco Chronicle columnist Ann Killion to make his point.
“Watching the tape, both teams just got after it and competed. But we just watched the tape upstairs. You don’t think there were 10 calls that we thought we got fouled? This is how it goes. And every coach in the league will tell you the same thing: You watch the tape and you go, ‘Man, that’s a foul, that’s a foul.’ It’s the nature of the game. It’s very, very difficult to officiate an N.B.A. game. There’s all kinds of gray area, and in the modern game a lot of players have gotten really good at deception, creating contact. I don’t remember people falling down on 3-point shots all the time when I played.”
Houston Coach Mike D’Antoni said the officials came to talk to him during halftime about missed foul calls on the Warriors closing out on the Rockets’ 3-point shooters.
“I’m going to try to be a nice guy because I really don’t want to give the charity to them, I’d rather have my charity have the money,” D’Antoni said. “So I mean the response was they came in halftime and said they missed them. That’s what they told me. They missed four of them. That’s 12 foul shots. So be it. They’re trying to do the best they can do.”

Yuzu on Sunday Charge 25/9/2022
Summarizing from tweets by @axelsandwich:
- Yuzu says his hometown is his pride and he wants to do the best with them
- it's Yuzu's 24th skating year, he remembered the earthquake and felt that he is here today because of the support of the ppl who also went through hard times
- during a video showing his journey from Beijing to becoming a pro skater Yuzu said that at the time of the Olympics his focus was to jump and acknowledge the 4A, but that he thinks he is not the same as in Beijing and still wants to accomplish more as a pro skater (basically)
- they showed when he played in the film: Yuzu said it's embarrassing, he was too nervous and he couldn't do the lines and he decided to not do it again; maybe only if he could play himself
- talking about SharePractice: Yuzu thinks that his warm-up routine could help other skaters and that fs is a sport where hard parts are hidded to the audience, so he wanted to show that the sport side of fs to the fans
- he plans on doing activities in Sendai ; ice rink Sendai has helped him a lot for example in hosting SharePractice
- Yuzu plans to release a new video in October for his YouTube channel, he practically manages the channel including comments and setup and camera himself
- Yuzu wants to be a pro skater who will also do quads and competitive like layouts, different from most pro skaters who jump mostly triples or doubles, for this he needs lots of stamina as when you do an ice show yourself you have to do multiple programs a day unlike in competition where you have 2-3 performances at maximum
- Yuzu wants a "new show" : he focuses on one program with all his emotions but he wants to increase the number and also collaborate more with the music
- about not being limited by competition rules: Yuzu agrees for example he can repeat the same kind of jumps
- for Yuzu becoming a pro skater means that he raises the level from an amateur to a pro-skater
- they show Yuzu Miyagi Sports with baseball Rakuten Eagles: it's the team Yuzu once did a pitch for in 2010 - Yuzu said his pitch was embarrassing as his father is a baseball coach and he could do better
- basketball news, where Yuzu left a supportive message - Yuzu says he can't do basketball
- talk about Shohei Otani, who did a historic thing (lol none of us fans follows baseball I fear😅) : Yuzu says Shohei Otani is amazing and refers to the time as "living in the Otani generation" while the host says Shohei Otani says "living in the Hanyu generation"
- Yuzu says he hoped he was able to convey his appreciation for his hometown
- Yuzu says that no matter the sport foundations are very important
(there was some more talk about the weather, covid etc. normal stuff usually aired in that tv segment not specified towards Yuzu)
