The answer to all your questions is money.

The reason for 7 game series is to avoid upsets. The better team *always* wins a 7 game series. If Pacers win let's focus on that irrefutable fact. OKC would have had a great season but the Pacers would have been proven to be the better team. #pacers
"We are one game away from what is without a doubt the greatest upset in NBA history." @getnickwright is shocked by the Thunder's collapse vs. the Pacers

Chris Fowler said Indiana's roster age averaged like an NFL team during the CFP National Championship. That number's been repeated as gospel for 7 months since. Nobody ever actually ran the numbers. So I did. The real number might surprise you.

Fuck the Knicks, fuck NY, the 2025 Indiana Hoosiers going 16-0 and winning the national championship is singularly the greatest and most shocking achievement by any sports team in my long lifetime
Should Indiana Football have won the ESPYs Best Team award over the Knicks? 🤔

Why is it ‘cancelled’ in the U.K. but ‘canceled’ in the U.S.? Because we gave them that L in 1776.

Rape gang deniers say that the "250,000 rape victims" number is too high and therefore the entire report and story is fictional. Would they believe if it was only 200,000 sexually tortured children? 100,000? 50,000? Because to a normal human being, a single child getting tortured as a sex slave would be enough for me to carry out draconian remigration, criminal prosecutions, and public execution measures to anyone involved. One child victim is enough to convince me.
