Besides cricket, it's worth mentioning that there is a lot of baseball happening in Latin America and The Caribbean between October and February. At least 4 of the 6 teams in the Dominican baseball league (LIDOM) offer live streams you can watch for free and legally from anywhere in the world, and a lot of the talent playing in the Dominican Republic has played in MLB which makes the game feel familiar. Besides the Dominican Republic there's baseball happening in Puerto Rico, Mexico, and Venezuela at the same time. Other countries that may have a fall-winter league are Cuba, Panama and Colombia, but I'd have to double check.
Said the same thing, new ownership is all about recovering their money as fast as possible, in a year or two they'll "realize" that Kyrie, Klay, and AD is not a winning formula and say "oopsie, let's blow it up, hehehe", leaving the team in a sucking state for a decade or so.
Funny story, a guy I used to work with was like "hey, let's study Japanese" and I was like "OK", LOL. After that I spent the following 3 years studying Japanese and he quit after a week or so, which didn't surprised me since he has that kind of personality, good kid tho. The hardest part was finding a way of studying effectively, it was the first time I tried learning a language by myself so I spent most of the time horsing around with methods that don't work. Nowadays I mostly do Anki plus lots of input.
I studied some Chinese in the past, Pleco is pretty good, even the base app offers a lot of features. I'm now learning Japanese too, LOL, started in 2016 and left it in 2019 or so, but recently I've fallen in love with the language again.
Me and my girlfriend started watching it last week, we are already on season 2, it's pretty good, I can't believe it took me this long to start watching it.
I mean, I could be posting about the Dominican Baseball League (LIDOM) which I follow, but that's not MLB and probably not allowed in this community. I don't shut up about LIDOM on Mastodon, some MLB players are participating too, as always.
