Tide Pride and Season Tickets
So… who of you here have football season tickets? I’d like to get on the waitlist and rack up some points through basketball, but I have some questions that Google and the Roll Tide website aren’t really answering.
Will I be waiting decades or just a normal amount of years? I guess this depends on points, so if anyone knows, how many points are usually required to get off the waiting list? Does it vary by seat?
For basketball, there are apparently both Tide Pride tickets and non-Tide Pride tickets. The website for Tide Totals says you get 5 points per season of Tide Pride membership per sport, and 1 point per season of season tickets per sport. It’s not clear on exactly how that works, so am I correct in assuming that you get the 5 points for having Tide Pride seats and/or the 1 point for having any season tickets even if they’re non-Tide Pride, or does the 1 only come from having Tide Pride tickets? Another thing: website says you get 1 points for each $100 contributed to Tide Pride. Does this include the Tide Pride cost of the seats or is this only for extra donations? I actually do plan on attending the games, not just selling the tickets, so I’ll probably want Tide Pride seats anyway because they’re better seats.
If, hypothetically, I were to come off the football waitlist with some really mediocre seats, could I keep accruing points and potentially get to upgrade my seats as the years go by? Or, should I just wait until they offer good seats?
To anyone who reads this and can help me out, thank you!

Water Bottle- Cus I'm a waterholic and I need the hydration
Multitool- Specifically, my Dad's Swiss Army Knife he actually bought in Switzerland a long time ago when the brand was still Wegner and not Victorinox, gave it to me cus he didn't need it anymore. Has a standard knife, nail filer and clipper, toothpick and tweezer, and a pair of scissors.
Pocket Notebook- The reminders app on a phone does not do. You need a pocket notebook, and I need one. Throughout the day when my brain decides to work and produce ideas or remembers hey dude you need to do this write it down. it's your second brain for memory. Your own brain, the sponge, is for thinking.
Button Compass- This is never used in my everyday life but it's so light and takes up so little space and for the offchance I get stuck in the wilderness or other situation
Hand Cream- It's the white tub, my hands get dryer than the Arizona Desert so I need some moisturizing cream almost everyday.
Watch- A Timex Standard Chronograph, the chrono function is very useful for day to day life timing things, it's 40mm in diameter with 50m of water resistance (Altho since it is a chrono I don't swim with it I have a separate beater watch for sports and water activities)
Hand Sanitizer- For when there isn't a bathroom and I need to quickly clean my hands before eating something, etc.
Essential Oils- Don't laugh, they work. These are from Young Living, and they're basically my medicine for what I determine to be the 2 most common pain in the a** when you're out and about, a stomachache and headache, because you're not going to always find a clean bathroom to vacate your bowels or be able to lie/sit down if your head is feeling like someone's slamming a hammer on it.
Phone- Using it to take this photo with, nobody can survive without a mobile phone these days and neither can I lmao.
Everything being carried in this handy pouch that goes in a backpack/sling bag. There's a open pocket at the back for my phone. Water bottle goes in backpack/sling bag.

A look at Florida’s controversial playoff goalie interference journey
Over the course of the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs, there have been five goals challenged for goaltender interference. Remarkably, each one has been in a game that involved the Florida Panthers, and the first four gave way to rulings in the Panthers’ favour in games they would go on to win.
The fifth review didn’t break their way, and that was a game they lost. These calls matter.
You can say it’s a coincidence that it’s always Florida, or you may believe that the Panthers have players who like to crash the opposing crease and a goalie who pushes into contact with a little flair for the dramatic. I imagine it’s a sprinkling of random luck, but heavily due to the construction of Florida’s roster that’s brought us here.
Watch the Stanley Cup Playoffs on SportsnetIt all comes down to this: 16 teams, one trophy. Watch every game of the Stanley Cup Playoffs live on Sportsnet+, beginning on April 20. Broadcast schedule
They play a certain very effective way that leads to these events.
So let’s evaluate the “Panthers cause crease chaos” trend through the five goaltender interference plays, and try to draw a conclusion of our own.
Matthew Tkachuk falls into a goalie totally by mistake
One thing you love about Florida’s greasy forwards — if you’re a fan of that team — is there’s a lot of “whoops did I do that?” moments around their opponent’s goalie. Whether they interfere or not, that would get into any goalie’s head.
The trick, like in the play above with Tkachuk, is that you use the contact from the defence as your pass to go into the goalie. Yes, Tkachuk is bumped in a way that directs him to Andrei Vasilevskiy. Were Vasilevskiy actually a cliff with spikes at the bottom, would Tkachuk have been forced over said cliff and on to the spikes? No, he’d have avoided that fall.
So, it’s a “whoops they pushed me,” the goalie gets bumped, and a good goal. It should stand (and it did), because Tampa’s Brandon Hagel does put Tkachuk there, but it’s still intentional.
Anthony Duclair’s backheel gets a Tampa Bay goal called back
Florida catches a break here, as a simple puck battle leads to a bit of a skate into Sergei Bobrovsky in the crease, which was deemed enough to pull the goal off the board.
I’d like to see this one stand. Goalie Bob is in the play, poking for the puck, and it just squirts out to another Lightning player.
Anthony Cirelli’s spinning screen ruled interference
Because of the ruling on the ice, it’s really hard to undo this “no goal” call, but they should have. Cirelli is on white ice, trying to avoid Bobrovsky and providing a great screen. The Panthers goalie can’t see around him, and as a result the shot from distance goes in. Tampa, like Florida, has some players who excel in these areas of the ice. I think goalies should have to battle a little. I’d like for this one to stand.
Sam Bennett pushes Charlie Coyle into Jeremy Swayman
This is really a coin toss, but I think they got it right. Swayman has fully extended his last desperation leg kick, and is not all that close to being able to make a save before Coyle gets to him. And getting gently pushed at the net-front shouldn’t be enough for a defending player to suddenly disqualify any potential goals by falling forward; Coyle just doesn’t put up any resistance. It’s the playoffs, and this to me is pushing for position.
Tough call, but I say keep it.
Danton Heinen gets into Bobrovsky in the blue paint
I really disliked this one. Danton Heinen went into Bobrovsky’s crease and dislodged the goalie’s right skate, which led to an in-crease battle where Oliver-Ekman Larsson knocked Bobrovsky’s stick loose, all while the Panthers’ goalie tried to get set for a Charlie McAvoy shot that quite simply went through Bobrovsky. (OEL isn’t there in the first place if Heinen doesn’t skate directly into the crease.)
To me, the word “interference” matters, and Bobrovsky is clearly interfered with here. It was ruled a goal, the first review that went against the Panthers in the post-season, and it would be the game winner that kept Boston from being eliminated.
So what is the overall takeaway from all this? What can we learn about the Panthers and playoff hockey?
Being involved in these moments reflects well on a team aiming to have success in the playoffs. They are competitive and find themselves in battles at both ends of the rink around the blue paint. They are engaged, they’re verbally pushing refs and opponents at every whistle, they push the limits, they ride the “edge.” They want to know just what they can get away with, and put the onus on the referees to say “that’s too far.”
If you’re coaching a team, you’d rather that than the opposite, wouldn’t you?
If the Panthers go deeper into the playoffs – that’s five reviews in just two rounds, you’ll note – don’t be surprised to see them engaged in more of these battles. It’s working for them by and large, so I’d expect Swayman to be a landing pad for some Panthers forward in Game 6 at some point.
It directly reflects the Panthers’ image as controversial, combative, and willing to do whatever it takes to win. If we know anything about the way playoff hockey unfolds, any little edge can be the one that pushes a team over the top.

Oilers stick with Calvin Pickard for Game 5 vs. Canucks
Calvin Pickard will lead the Edmonton Oilers onto the ice for Game 5 against the Vancouver Canucks.
Pickard was in the starter’s net during the team’s morning skate
The Oilers pulled out a 3-2 win in Game 4 to even up the series at 2-2. Oilers head coach Kris Knoblauch decided to make a change in goal going with Pickard between the pipes over starter Stuart Skinner.
It was Pickard’s first career start in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. He made 19 saves in the winning effort.
“(Pickard) looked like a guy who had played 100 playoff games,” Knoblauch said Tuesday night. “Composed, really solid, seeing the puck really well.”
Skinner was pulled in favour of Pickard after allowing four goals on 15 shots in Edmonton’s Game 3 loss on Sunday.
The 25-year-old has given up 12 goals in three games this series, with a .793 save percentage and just one win.
Edmonton brought in Pickard as a free agent in July 2022 but he spent most of the time in the AHL with the Bakersfield Condors. He would get promoted to the backup role in November after Jack Campbell struggled to start the season.
Pickard started 20 games in the regular season for the Oilers, boasting a 12-7-1 record, with a 2.45 goals-against average and .909 save percentage.
Skinner, on the other hand, had a 36-16-5 record on the year with a 2.62 GAA and .905 save percentage in the regular season.

Canucks plan to shuffle lines for Game 5 vs. Oilers
After expressing disappointment with the effort of some of his players last time out, Vancouver Canucks coach Rick Tocchet is poised to make changes for Game 5 against the Edmonton Oilers.
The struggling Elias Pettersson was moved to right wing at practice on Thursday, with Elias Lindholm at centre and Nils Hoglander on the left side.
Pettersson, who has just one goal and three assists in 10 playoff games, previously was centring a line with Sam Lafferty and Ilya Mikheyev. The latter two and Linus Karlsson were not on the top four lines at practice.
Hoglander did not play the last two games.
“I think puck possession and forechceck is something we’ve talked about where we have to improve on,” Tochhet told reporters. “Maybe there are a couple of changes in here that can help it.
Teddy Blueger replaced Lindholm on another line Thursday with Dakota Joshua and Conor Garland.
Vasily Podkolzin appears set to make his NHL playoff debut as he was on the right side of a line with Phil DiGiuseppe and Nils Aman.

Xander Schauffele ties men’s major scoring record at PGA Championship
LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Xander Schauffele tied the lowest round in major championship history Thursday at Valhalla Golf Club and had the early lead by three shots.
Schauffele’s 62 was the lowest score in PGA Championship history, and he set the course record at Valhalla in the process.
Schauffele has eight top-10 results so far this season in 12 tournaments, including a runner-up last week at the Wells Fargo Championship. While he hasn’t won on the PGA Tour since 2022, he said he feels like he’s playing the best golf of his career right now.
“I feel there’s spurts, moments in time where you feel like you can control the ball really well; you’re seeing the greens really well; you’re chipping really well. But over a prolonged period, it’s tough to upkeep high performance,” Schauffele said. “I’d say it’s very close to (my best golf), if not it.”
Schauffele has the lowest all-time career first-round scoring average in major championships among those who have appeared in at least 25 majors. He became just the second golfer ever to shoot a round 64 or better at Valhalla on Thursday.
With 12 top-10s in major championships, Schauffele is one of the game’s most elite that does not yet have a major trophy.
“I think not winning makes you want to win more, as weird as that is. For me, at least, I react to it, and I want it more and more and more, and it makes me want to work harder and harder and harder,” Schauffele said.
“The top feels far away, and I feel like I have a lot of work to do. But just slowly chipping away at it.”
Tony Finau and Sahith Theegala were in second at the conclusion of the morning wave in Kentucky at 6 under, with Rory McIlroy – the 2014 PGA Championship winner at Valhalla – and Robert MacIntyre were a shot back at 5 under.
McIlroy, who has won his last two starts on the PGA Tour, filed for divorce from his wife of seven years on Monday and was curt when asked any questions that were personal-life adjacent.
“Happy to be here,” McIlroy said when asked about how he is at compartmentalizing.
He was, however, pleased with how much he got out of his game on Thursday, calling his round “scrappy.” McIlroy admitted he was off with a few things (he was 135th in strokes gained: off the tee – an incredible drop from fourth) in the same stat this season), but was happy with his score.
Also thrilled with his opening-round score was Adam Hadwin, who leads the Canadian contingent in Louisville after a 3-under 68 opener.
Hadwin’s Thursday featured a short-game masterclass and was highlighted by a final-hole eagle of nearly 40 feet.
“I was trying to hit it directly behind the pin and chip it backwards, but I pull-heel-cut it perfectly up the opening on the left side of the green and it rolled up. Uphill left-to-right (putt) and I judged it perfectly,” Hadwin said.
Hadwin, who was fourth in strokes gained: around the green and fifth in strokes gained: putting, explained the conditions Thursday were ripe for scoring – with soft greens and fairways allowing even shorter-hitting guys to be able to take advantage.
“It’s long-ish, but we’re seeing a little bit of run in the fairway today and with soft greens it’s very playable. Even long irons were stopping within 10 feet and whenever you have that, guys are going to go low. They’re going to take advantage,” Hadwin said.
Hadwin was quick to heap praise on Schauffele’s opening-round score.
“Nine under in a major, any major, regardless of conditions, is pretty damn good,” Hadwin said.
Adam Svensson and Corey Conners finished at 1 under while Taylor Pendrith and Nick Taylor shot 1-over 72s. Mackenzie Hughes was the only Canadian in the afternoon wave.
Scottie Scheffler, the world No.1 who won four of his last five starts on the PGA Tour and just returned to action for the first time since becoming a father eight days ago, knocked his first approach shot of the day into the cup for an eagle.
