“Nothing hurts me more than a non-performing Pakistan team,” says Krishnamoorthy V, who has clearly never had piles. “I still recall with awe the super-talented, all-conquering team of 1992. It is true they have been falling steadily but one would exoect a correction and reversal of fortune/form from such a cricket talent nation. West Indies and Pakistan shall forever remain a mystery in their current underperformance. And the bulk of the common malady lies with their respective boards.” playerbros.org

Ernest Jones: When you think about Seattle, we want you to think about defense
The Seahawks didn't put any points on the board until the fourth quarter on Wednesday night, but waiting to get the scoring started didn't keep them from coming up with a win.
Their defense forced four punts while spotting the Patriots a 10-0 lead and then came up with interceptions on New England's final three possessions to help pave the way to a 13-10 comeback win that played out with quarterback Sam Darnold out of the game to be evaluated for a hip injury. The Seahawks also sacked Drake Maye three times in the second half and generally sent notice to the NFL that the unit that propelled them to the Super Bowl last season remain in fine shape.
"When you think about Seattle, we want you to think about our defense, and what we are going to bring each and every day," linebacker Ernest Jones said, via the team's website.
The Seahawks pulled off Wednesday's performance without safeties Nick Emmanwori and Ty Okada, so they'll have even more weapons at their disposal in the weeks to come and that's not great news for the opposing offenses on their schedule.
