SPROTS UPDATE: The Challenge Total Madness: It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad Game
In the despair that is currently the wasteland of the sports world in the age of coronavirus, Wednesday graced us with the long awaited premier of the 35th season of MTV’s reality show meets kind of actual sport(?), The Challenge.
The delay was a bit longer than what we are used to; usually we get a trailer, releasing the theme and cast, around mid-February. That wasn’t until March 18 this time around, for an April Fool’s release date.
But, it’s here, and just in time, as the desire for competition has never been greater.
With all of that out of the way, lets get into the premier of The Challenge: Total Madness.

Pokemon Sword/Shield is the best new SPROTS video game
Since the mid-2000’s, sports video games have largely stayed the same. The various companies in charge of our AAA sports game franchises issue an annual software release, which usually amounts to updating the rosters, making graphical and in-game engine improvements, and perhaps adds in a new mode (like the ever-popular Ultimate Team modes in Madden and FIFA) or playing feature. (Remember the visual cone of … Continue reading Pokemon Sword/Shield is the best new SPROTS video game
#Thrill5 Week 11
What’s popping willforthrillers. We’re back for another week of exciting NFL football and we’re going to enjoy it the only way we know by: by pissing away all of our money. Last week we went 2-3 to extend the current losing streak. We’re still up 29-21 on the season but that record is trending in the wrong direction. The good news is that I love … Continue reading #Thrill5 Week 11
#Thrill5 Week 10
Hand up. I want to begin by taking responsibility for my picks last week. I had been on a bit of a heater the past few weeks and started to get cocky.

#Thrill5 Week 9
Welcome back willforthrillers!

My Thursday and Monday night picks have been winning at a high rate too. … Continue reading #Thrill5 Week 9
