Welcome to my tailgate!! If you love college football, then this is the place for you! If you don't...you will.

Now that the 2023 NFL regular season has ended, its time to talk about the playoffs!

I have an idea for a good quiz but I'm not smart enough to make it.

En complément du quiz "La NBA pour les nuls", voici un petit paragraphe détaillant chacune des 15 réponses, pour les plus curieux et motivés d'entre vous.

Poor Pedri...

Anyways this blog isn't talking about Spanish football, so let's turn our focus right back on this island. How many matches can an English side play in a SINGLE season AT MOST?

For your reference, NBA teams play 110 games a season from regular season to play-off final. Do you think any English Professional side can beat that?

After seeing Chelsea drawing Man City in both the FA and League Cup third round, I started wondering: How many times can Chelsea face Man City in a single season? In 22/23 season Chelsea has faced City three times already (League, Fa Cup, League Cup), and have a possible another three upcoming (League, Champions League) at least. So, after 'months' of research, this is what I gathered...

Bringing this back from last year, was popular enough that I'm going to try it again this year.

Watching each playoff matchup in the NFL this year closely, looking at key players and stats and predicting the outcomes as well.

Since 1930, the FIFA World Cup is held every 4 years. In 2022, the competition happened for the first time in a country of the Arab World: Qatar. Now, the hosts and other 31 national teams that shined on the qualifications from their respective continental zones, got qualified to 2022's edition. The World Cup has ended, but the passion for the sport will never do, and so, this is my criterious view about every national team on Qatar!

This is a rather nerdy analysis of FIFA World Cup 2022 statistics. Proceed with caution.

This will tell you when the Ground Stage games are going to be and what teams are in them

This blog will describe when some of the first games are played and which teams will be playing each other.

Dans le précédent blog je détaillais les différents évènements ayant amené à la naissance de la Coupe du Monde 1930. Il est temps d'attaquer la compétition en tant que telle. Qui en furent les protagonistes? Quelles anecdotes croustillantes peut-on en tirer? Dans quel contexte s'inscrit cette Coupe du Monde? Il est l'heure de voir tout ça.

Bientôt, la Coupe du Monde débutera au Qatar. Ce sera la 22ème édition, et en 21 éditions on peut dire qu'il s'en est passé des choses. Quand l'Histoire du foot s'entremêle et s'inscrit parfaitement avec l'Histoire du monde, il devient à mon avis intéressant de décortiquer le tout. Je vous propose donc de parcourir avec moi les débuts de cette compétition, en commençant par voir comment celle-ci est née.

Let’s explain stuff. Hockey.

If you are new to hockey, this blog is for you!

I recently have been watching on YouTube many soccer channels. I recommend some of them (they are Portuguese-speaking, but there is a thing called captions, and although they may not work, I don’t care). I also watch @Sport Stats, where there is a bar chart showing the winners of certain competition, with its anthems (to sum up, Chen’s Flourish). Listening them, I decided to do this series 🙃

One more picking of Brasileirão! Are you with luck today?

What is Baseball? Baseball is a team sport played on a grass and dirt field in which 2 teams rotate trying to bat (hit the ball into fair territory) and field (try to defend). There are many clubs and teams across the world that play this sport, the most famous for kids, being little league. However, the sport costs a lot and needs a lot of equipment, but gets fun when you know how to play it.

What is cricket? Cricket is a sport that is played all around the world, mainly in former British colonies such as Australia, India, and South Africa. Cricket involves two teams of eleven players taking it in turns to bat and field, similar to baseball. The sport is believed to originate from the south of England around the 13th century but it was in 1975 that the first Cricket World Cup was held.

16 grievances will leave, 16 will remain.

Because some things make me angry.

Quite possibly the most critical buzzword in sports, "momentum" is an athletic phenomenon unlike any other. However, does it really exist, or is it all in our heads?

How can I come up with a better March Madness bracket this year? Mathematics to the rescue!

Mardi dernier, le monde ovale perdait l'un de ses plus talentueux représentant. Christophe Dominici s'est éteint à l'âge de 48 ans dans des circonstances assez étranges. En effet les causes de sa mort n'ont pu encore être élucidées. Ayant commencé sa carrière aux balbutiements du rugby professionnel, Dominici marquera durant 17 ans la planète ovalie. Revenons sur la carrière de ce génie du rugby français.

Can you make a 23-person team of footballers (plus a manager) using each letter of the alphabet once?

I am SWAT previously FerroequinoSWAT and before that CreativeSWAT. I changed my username because I know how complicated FerroequinoSWAT looks and sounds. This is my first blog about why I was known by FerroequinoSWAT and how I become a ferroequinologist. Despite being only SWAT now, I'll remain a Ferroequinologist forever.
