In Case You Missed It

This is a subtitle for your new post

Welcome to this week's edition of "In Case You Missed it!"  A lot went down this week! We had freaks assaulting guys, a franchise going up for sale, Mike Trout obliterating baseballs, and the Lakers made a trade that can't possibly go wrong! Like I said, a lot happened, and I have thoughts!


Here they are! Enjoy!


  1. Usman blew a 28-3 lead
  2. Blake Gilikin was randomly drug tested Sunday after he kicked an 81 yard punt on Friday. Coincidence? I think not
  3. The USA World Baseball Classic lineup is lookin NICE


4. If I were a pitcher, there would be no circumstance in which I felt like beaming Aaron judge was a good idea


5. The KJ Costello experiment was fun huh? 

6. I’d love to see Pete Charmichael introduce some sort of Deebo role to the offense with Kirk Merritt 

7. 693 for Pujols!! 

8. The Marlins got another one


9. The Angels are for sale!! Here we go!

10. Mike Trout hit a homer off the roof of a stadium. Welcome back Trouty 


11. Tiger and Rory are starting their own team based golf league. Is LIV in trouble?

12. So TGL is nothing like LIV. It looks WILD!

13. Pat Bev & Russ on the same team sounds like a nice pick for the Pels

14. Trout’s back injury has turned him into a super human

15. Aaron Donald should be arrested for assault. His hands are weapons enough and he’s out here hitting people with helmets 

16. Tyreek Hill is one of us 


16. Bryce Harper, welcome back. 

17. Jameis is hilarious lmao 


18. Alvin Kamara might lead the league in rushing 

19. Send Tre'Quan Smith to a Motel 6.  He's gotta GO

20. Saints are winning the Super Bowl. +4000 on Fanduel

19. College football is back!!!

20. The internet went out at the northwestern & Nebraska game so the stadium gave out free beer. What a time 

21. Casey Thompson is crazy!


22.  UNLV has a turnover slot machine and I love it so much.

A quick share helps us a lot!

Pelicans @ Nuggets Takeaways

By Chrissy Smith • October 30, 2025
Team Stats (Pelicans at Nuggets) Final Score: 88-122 Rebounds: 36-57 Assists: 17-40 Steals: 9-5 Blocks: 3-5 Turnovers: 12-14 Stat Leaders Scoring Leaders: Jeremiah Fears, 21; Nikola Jokić, 21 Rebound Leaders: Trey Murphy III, 7; Nikola Jokić, 12 Assist Leaders: Jeremiah Fears, 6; Nikola Jokić, 10 My Player of the Game: Jeremiah Fears Chrissy's Key Takeaways * The starters for this game were Fears, Murphy III, Jones, Zion, and Deandre Jordan. So that was different, and it didn't work at all. * With most of the third quarter over, Zion had five total points in the game. He finished with 11. * The Nuggets went on a 32-4 run in the third quarter. The Pelicans came out very slow to start off the third. * New Orleans went 7-of-33 from the three-point line. * Nikola Jokić had a triple-double. The Pelicans had no answer for him all night. * Do the Pelicans know that the season has started because the majority of the guys out there look like they still think they're playing Summer League. * The problem with this team isn't the talent because they have that. So what's the problem? Coaching, effort, etc.? This has to be fixed ASAP. Follow @TheKneaux on X, and follow me there too, @SportsChrissy.

Celtics @ Pelicans Takeaways

By Chrissy Smith • October 28, 2025
Team Stats (Celtics at Pelicans) Final Score: 122-90 Rebounds: 54-35 Assists: 25-17 Steals: 5-7 Blocks: 7-0 Turnovers: 11-13 Stat Leaders Scoring Leaders: Anfernee Simons, 25; Jordan Poole, 22 Rebound Leaders: Neemias Queta, 11; Yves Miss, 7 Assist Leaders: Payton Prichard, 8; Trey Murphy, III, 5 My Player of the Game: Jordan Poole Chrissy's Key Takeaways * The first two losses of the season were tough but at least the team looked good. In this game, no one looked fired up to compete except Jordan Poole and Jose Alvarado. * Zion did not play because he's been spending all offseason getting in shape just so he could rest after two games. Makes no sense to me. * Trey Murphy and Herb Jones need to find their spark and stride. These guys have been putting in a ton of work in the offseason but it isn't showing right now. * Willie Green has got to be on a short leash because this 0-3 start feels like the team is just picking up where they left off except this time they're healthy and have all the momentum in the world. * The next three games for the Pelicans will be on the road against Denver, Clippers, and Thunder .
