Thanks for being first on Crosshare after Cap'n Rick and Peter, who went out of their way to help make it happen.

Amazing!
It took a moment - I was racking my brains trying to come up with a sport name with 2 'ni's in it, to no avail. Then I counted them.
Thanks for the puzzle!
I'm curious if you had any trouble fending off stray NIs in the grid, and also whether you considered letting the NI in "Nice" be the tenth. Thanks for the MMM!
Hector - many stray NIs had to bite the dust - especially the downs! No, never considered NIce the tenth - was just happy to get ten in the theme entries! Thanks for solving.

Nice job, Mike! Thanks for the puzzle! But -- anyone else now have the Knights who say Ni stuck in their heads?
Lovely start to a Monday, welcome to the constructor's club. I warn you, it is fun AND habit forming. I detect a health or science tie in, are you perhaps in one of those fields? By the way, I LOVED the DNA clue!
Thanks DrTom. Nah, just boring old financial analysis, but advancing to the age where my wife and I get to see lots of Doctors, so maybe that is rubbing off... Appreciate the nod to 33D clue. Wanted to bring my (DN)A Game!
A wonderful debut! If the queen of the non-sportsing people can get this without googling, you've succeeded in making a "gettable" and enjoyable meta. Thanks and look forward to more of your puzzles.
I thought maybe we were going for ten-pin bowling with the NIs part of backwards PINS or something. Then I reread my note of NI ten times to TEN NIS, and I had it.
Thanks for a great puzzle!
