"If he wants to put Munster at fullback and start Tommy in the halves, and he got KP on the bench like that's pretty handy as well," Hunt continued.

It's been a big news week with the election campaign coming to a climax as polls suggest the election is all but over with Labor to triumph. Peter Dutton’s office was defaced yet again, Magic Round has got underway with the Maroons loosing Game One of Women's Origin and it's been four decades since Expo 88. Courier Mail Editor Chris Jones told Peter Fegan on 4BC Breakfast, " I think the biggest change, as we saw in Canada this week with their election, is that ironically, Donald Trump has hurt the Conservative vote all around the world. These are now uncertain times and at uncertain times, you tend to see electorates stick with the incumbent, stick with what you know and I think that's what we're heading for here," Jones said.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

With the first game of State of Origin five weeks away, team selections are already a hot topic. With Reece Walsh's injury, Kalyn Ponga is expected to take the fullback position, but now the spotlight turns to Tom Dearden and Daly Cherry-Evans. Jonathan Thurston told Jason Matthews on Wide World of Sports, "If Munster and DCE are fit, then I expect Tommy Dearden to be...he could be on the bench, he could certainly be 18th man as well." "Our strongest side at the moment it's, definitely a DCE and Cameron Munster in the halves." "But there's still five weeks to go before that comes around, so a lot can happen in five weeks," JT continued. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

With the first game of State of Origin six weeks away, team selections are already a hot topic. The debate regarding Queensland's fullback has begun, with Kalyn Ponga and Reece Walsh emerging as the frontrunners. Canberra Raider, Queensland Maroon, and Kanagraoo, Gary Belcher told Jason Matthews, "It really depends on the make up I think you've got to have Kalyn Ponga somewhere there." "I think Reece Reece Walsh is a little bit off at the moment, but there's still some time to go before Origin. If he strings a few of his best games together, he's got to be in the mix." "Kalyn Ponga [has] probably got his nose in front for mine at the moment," Mr Belcher continues.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's our long-overdue dive into one of the most controversial stories in National Football League history — the tale of the Pottsville Maroons and its stolen 1925 championship — with ESPN journalist and author David Fleming, whose acclaimed 2007 book "Breaker Boys: The NFL's Greatest Team and the Stolen 1925 Championship" is newly apropos on the 100th anniversary of what many consider to be pro football's most egregious historical blunder. Fleming guides us through the dramatic rise and fall of the Maroons — an Eastern Pennsylvania coal-country semi-pro team born of grit, visionary coaching, and the raw determination of hard-working, hardscrabble working-class miners/players/characters, like Tony 'The Human Howitzer' Latone. We'll trace how this unlikely squad stormed into the NFL in 1925, defeated its powerhouse Chicago Cardinals in the ostensible title game, and then toppled a heavily-favored University of Notre Dame "Four Horsemen" squad in a much-hyped exhibition match. But their moment of triumph became their undoing. The NFL suspended the team for allegedly violating territorial rights for the game — a charge hotly contested to this day — and stripped them of the title. Instead, the Cardinals were awarded the championship, and Pottsville was left with nothing but heartbreak. Hear how the Maroons' win over the Fighting Irish actually helped legitimize a still-fledgling NFL — and how the league "repaid" them with what many call the worst injustice in pro football history. We'll explore the political maneuvering behind the decision, the 100-year fight for redemption, and what it reveals about the NFL's ownership power dynamics, both then and now. + + + SUPPORT THE SHOW: Buy Us a Coffee: https://ko-fi.com/goodseatsstillavailable "Good Seats" Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/?ref_id=35106 SPONSOR THANKS (AND SUPPORT THE SHOW!): Yinzylvania (20% off promo code: GOODSEATSSTILLAVAILABLE): https://yinzylvania.com/GOODSEATSSTILLAVAILABLE Royal Retros (10% off promo code: SEATS): https://www.503-sports.com?aff=2 Old School Shirts.com (10% off promo code: GOODSEATS): https://oldschoolshirts.com/goodseats 417 Helmets (10% off promo code: GOODSEATS): https://417helmets.com/?wpam_id=3 BUY THE BOOK (AND SUPPORT THE SHOW!): "Breaker Boys: The NFL's Greatest Team and the Stolen 1925 Championship": https://amzn.to/43C5atA FIND AND FOLLOW: Website: https://goodseatsstillavailable.com/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/goodseatsstillavailable.com X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/GoodSeatsStill YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@goodseatsstillavailable Threads: https://www.threads.net/@goodseatsstillavailable Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/goodseatsstillavailable/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GoodSeatsStillAvailable/

fWotD Episode 2850: Eddie Gerard Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Saturday, 22 February 2025 is Eddie Gerard.Edward George Gerard (February 22, 1890 – August 7, 1937) was a Canadian professional ice hockey player, coach, and manager. Born in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, he played professionally for 10 seasons for his hometown Ottawa Senators. He spent the first three years of his playing career as a left winger before switching to defence, retiring in 1923 due to a throat ailment. Gerard won the Stanley Cup in four consecutive years from 1920 to 1923 (with the Senators three times, and as an injury replacement player with the Toronto St. Patricks in 1922), and was the first player to win the Cup four consecutive seasons. After his playing career he served as a coach and manager, working with the Montreal Maroons from 1925 until 1929, winning the Stanley Cup in 1926. Gerard also coached the New York Americans for two seasons between 1930 and 1932, before returning to the Maroons for two more seasons. He ended his career coaching the St. Louis Eagles in 1934, before retiring due to the same throat issue that had ended his playing career. He died from complications related to it in 1937.Renowned as a talented athlete in multiple sports, Gerard first gained prominence in rugby football as a halfback for the Ottawa Rough Riders club from 1909 to 1913, though he left the sport when he moved to hockey. Outside hockey he worked initially for the Canadian government as a printer, before working in the Geodetic Survey, ultimately becoming chief engineering clerk. Well-renowned during his hockey-playing career, he was regarded as one of the best defenders of his era, and gained notice for being a tough player, though not considered violent or dirty. Gerard was one of the original nine players inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame when it was founded in 1945. He is also an inductee of Canada's Sports Hall of Fame.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:48 UTC on Saturday, 22 February 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Eddie Gerard on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Kendra.

Consider this a warning: This episode gets super nerdy. UP was on the brink of a title. Someone somewhere was getting ready for a bonfire to be lit in Diliman. But then, out of nowhere, a basketball superhero did superhero things. Kevin Quiambao snatched victory from the Maroons' hands in a way that can only be described with acronyms: WTF! YOLO! SMH. GOAT! OMG. Adamson Head Coach Nash Rachel and Meralco Bolts guard Diego Dario are back to join Nikko as they react to the wild end of Game 2. As best as they can, they try not to evaluate either team based solely on the result (of the game or even each possession). Sometimes, bad decisions lead to great moments. Sometimes, good shots still don't go in. The beauty of the game is in the details, regardless of win or loss or make or miss. Again, this gets nerdy. For a few minutes, it'll be a stat sheet on your screen lol (TY TO THE SULTAN OF STATS PONG DUCANES aka @ompongski). Anyway, congrats to all of us for getting rewarded a Game 3 between these two great teams. Enjoy the pod. See you Sunday!

The wonderful civil rights elder Vincent Harding liked to look around the world for what he called "live human signposts" — human beings who embody ways of seeing and becoming and who point the way forward to the world we want to inhabit. And adrienne maree brown, who has inspired worlds of social creativity with her notions of "pleasure activism" and "emergent strategy," is surely one of these. We're listening with new ears as she brings together so many of the threads that have recurred in this season of On Being: on looking the harsh complexity of this world full in the face while dancing with joy as life force and fuel, and on keeping clear eyes on the reasons for ecological despair while giving oneself over to a loving apprenticeship with the natural world as teacher and guide. A love of visionary science fiction also finds a robust place in her work and this conversation. She altogether shines a light on an emerging ecosystem in our world over and against the drumbeat of what is fractured and breaking — the cultivation of old and new ways of seeing, towards a transformative wholeness of living.adrienne maree brown's influential books include Emergent Strategy, We Will Not Cancel Us, and Pleasure Activism. More recently, she has published Maroons, a work of speculative fiction, and she co-edited the anthology Octavia's Brood: Science Fiction from Social Justice Movements. She also co-hosts the podcast How to Survive the End of the World. And, a special heads up: in late summer 2024, adrienne maree brown will publish a phenomenal new book — Loving Corrections.Find the transcript for this show at onbeing.org.______Sign up for The Pause — a Saturday morning companion newsletter to the On Being podcast season, and our mailing list for news and invitations all year round.
