    NFL 2023-2024 Thread

    My fave moment from the draft. Influencer Sketch come out on stage, whipping up crowd with his patented, "What's up brothers!!" Then booed loudly as announced Texans choice, tight end from Ohio State. https://www.espn.com/video/clip/_/id/40037917

    MLB Thread - 2024

    Everything going to look good at SHP, including Mason Miller consistent 100+ mile per hour heater. And "A's" might be in Sac much longer than anyone imagined - beyond 3 years with 4th year option. How 'bout forever as Vegas deal could definitely collapse ...

    Old school Kings - 25 years ago now!

    Kings made the playoff first year in Sacramento (1985-86) - 38 years ago. Saw many games at the original "old barn" and then couple years later at the new Arco Arena. Reggie Theus, LaSalle Thompson, Eddie Johnson, Otis Thorpe, Mike Woodson, Larry Drew among others of note. City was...

    I understand. This knockoff cap probably left off the "S" intentionally. They wanted it to sound like unmistakable SAC now and maybe on into the future if Las Vegas deal collapses. https://www.kcra.com/article/as-file-trademark-applications-for-sacramento-as-sacramento-athletics/60412842

    I had same predicament as long time San Francisco Warriors fan and even follower Oakland Oaks team from old ABA. After I moved to Sac from Bay Area to go to college at Sac State still on occasion went to Golden State Warriors games in Oakland. But 1985 when Sacramento Kings came to town very...

    Las Vegas metro smaller than Sacramento metro and they have 2 sports teams, Raiders and Golden Nights and might soon enough have 3 with A's relocation.

    First Time in Sac

    And sure beats McDonalds, Burger King and all the other fast food burger places in taste and value. Plus, always clean inside with drive-thru efficient, moving along quickly.
