  1. Rousey's debut has been near universally praised by marks, smarks and people who cover and write about pro wrestling for a living. You're really swimming against the current here.
  2. Dear Los Angeles, You're welcome.
  3. You completely missed the point of the final scene and episode.
  4. Stoger is the manager because they made a bone-headed hire in Bosz who they fired three months into the season. Stoger is there to keep them afloat this year which means keep them in the Champions League next year which he'll probably be able to do. They drew APOEL twice in the Champions League. They were thoroughly outclassed by RB Salzburg in the Europa League. They've become mediocre over the span of a year for a variety of reasons. They didn't belong on the field with Bayern and that was before Bayern shoved it up their poopers today.
  5. Breaks tend to even out over the course of the season for most teams. Stinker got lucky with Markakis on opening day. Last night they somehow survived the 10th inning with Bourjous, Shane Carle, Flaherty and Culberson batting without making three outs to get to Inciarte who can actually hit, but he flew out weakly to center to end the game. It's crazy how stuff like that works out.
  6. Elizabeth doesn't really have a purpose (speaking in terms of her being a real person not a TV character) if there's no cause to fight for. Knowing how this ends historically I don't see her surviving to the end. I could see a scenario in which she dies and Phillip ends up back in Russia because that would seem to be a worse fate for him now than death since he's happy in America right now.
  7. Nick Markakis hit 8 home runs and slugged .384. Brian Stinker hits him clean-up. He hits a walk-off home run. It's the very definition of better to be lucky than good. Doesn't matter. 162-0 here we come! (also, thank Gabe Kapler for pulling Nola after 68 pitches for no reason)
  8. Newcomb's WHIP and walks per nine inning rate has gone up every step up the ladder he's gone in his career. I'm not holding my breath that suddenly he becomes someone who throws strikes consistently.
  9. Dreamland sucks. If we're going to give Bama the opportunity to play in front of Texas recruits then we should get two home games to one road game in T-Town.
  10. There will possibly be a small number of votes for Morocco because of Trump, but if Morocco gets it it will be because of FIFA's corruption.
  11. Oh yeah, we officially signed Ryan Flaherty and Peter Bourjous. Championship, mother fuckers!
  12. The bid books have been released by FIFA and can be read here: http://www.fifa.com/about-fifa/news/y=2018/m=3/news=2026-fifa-world-cup-bid-books-now-available.html It's long as hell so I'm not planning on reading it, but the two big things to glean from it according to a writer from the Sports Business Journal are that it would have three concurrent kickoff matches to start the tournament with the main match in Los Angeles or Mexico City and the proposed sites are Arlington and Atlanta for the Semifinals and New York/New Jersey for the Final.
  13. Nah dude Preston Tucker is the new JD Martinez!
