Poeltl on the Puzzler podcast 

Post#1 » by Zeno » Wed May 22, 2024 5:08 pm

Out of nowhere Yak bizarrely shows up as a guest on this podcast I sometimes listen to called the Puzzler. Apparently, the Raptors have some kind of internal crossword competition that Yak takes part in and was written about on the athletic . If I can find the article, I’ll post it. Anyway, here is a link to the episode.

Also as mentioned on the episode there is an NBA guessing game run by the NBAPA called POELTL because his name rhymes with Wordel. Don’t think it’s ever been posted here.

When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

Poeltl game is actually fun
What an absolute failure and disaster this franchise is, ran by one of the most incompetent front offices in the league.

The guessing game has been around for a while, it's fun to play and can be pretty challenging.

Yeah, I somehow missed it. Is it just a one a day thing?

Yeah, it updates with a new player every day.

Edit: haha I got today's in 3 guesses. Probably would've got it in 2 guesses if I looked at the height hint correctly (I went shorter instead of taller like an idiot lol). Lucky 1st guess got me the exact team :D
