  1. Still more competitive for longer than Monday night in that stadium will be
  2. Getting ready to hang out with Livvy!
  3. That one probably gets you seats behind home plate at Tropicana Field…. For 2025 only.
  4. What are the odds this card is still on a shelf waiting to be purchased? I’m guessing it was first packaged shortly after his debut in May?
  5. Affirmative. my freshman year at UT. what a damn rollercoaster.
  6. Y2K hangover. I’m sure I have but I can’t remember a time I’ve ever felt worse than that day…I wished the computers had won. and then that game started….at 10am. that 3 game stretch to end the ‘99 season was so shitty…. as Bevo XIII so elegantly demonstrated in the Alamodome a month earlier
  7. the place was never intended to be exposed to the elements. Nothing is waterproofed inside. I’m sure that’s the bigger issue on the timeline. They just need to condemn the place and take the measly insurance proceeds and apply it to the Yankees spring training rent for the next two years until the new place is open. going to lose a lot more money on the mold and other assorted sickness lawsuits. And all for what? 81 games in 2026? But I, for one, will definitely be rooting for the Rays this year to make it to the ALCS so the Astros can own the Steinbrenner Field in addition to Yankee Stadium
  8. The fact there this is a dude for one of the Japanese media outlets (newspaper/website) who’s only job is to write a story about Shohei every. single. day. of the year tells you all you need to know about their popularity over there
  9. Blinndergarten. and back in my day UT accepted a smattering of credits from there. I saved a lot of money loading up on summer classes there my first couple of years.
  10. Which barely lasted a month. smart hire
  11. Nearly half of U.S. Asians (45%) live in the West, with nearly a third (30%) in California alone. California had an Asian population of roughly 6.7 million in 2019, by far the nation’s largest. It was followed by New York (1.9 million), Texas (1.6 million), New Jersey (958,000) and Washington (852,000).
  12. He’s no Jack Mayfield, I tell you whut.
  13. Yeah, it’s that second part that’s not clear. I can’t tell what the bold is trying to say: “Traditional contract-bowl relationships will be the top priority when the committee assigns teams to Playoff Quarterfinal sites, but such priority cannot be guaranteed because of the bracket. For example, if the Big 12 Conference champion were ranked No. 1 and the Southeastern Conference champion were ranked No. 2, then the Big 12 champion would be assigned to the Sugar Bowl. The committee will use geographic proximity for the No. 1 seed when assigning the Playoff Semifinal sites.” https://collegefootballplayoff.com/sports/2016/10/24/selection-committee-protocol is that supposed to say the “highest remaining seed”? Or do they actually mean, “we’ll defer to the #1 seed (Oregon today) on where they want to play, but if they get knocked off, #2 seed, we don’t care where you want to play, we get to decide.” At any rate, cutting to the chase, what are the chances we get Cotton if we’re the #2 seed? Will Oregon as the 1 seed want Orange? If Ohio St beats Oregon, are they the #1 or would we be if we run the table?
  14. Assume Texas is SEC champ and #2 seed. would they align the BIG champ to play in the Orange bowl in the semis? Or depends who it is before deciding if they’d be aligned to go there or Cotton?
  15. The 5 and 6 seeds are going to be the place to be. This can’t happen now but there was definitely a big part of me rooting for us to win out but lose out on a ~4th tiebreaker to make the SEC championship game.* A one loss Texas team that missed their conference championship after losing a deep tiebreaker would be an easy sell to give the 5 or 6 seed to and you get to skip getting banged up in the CCG game. Being the 5 or 6 seed allows you knock off any rust from a 3 week layoff against the weakest team in the playoff. And you’re primed to go 10 days later against the worst conference champ that is coming off a 24 day break. A one or two seed is going to lose in the quarters because of that break and a slow start while a team that is more “game ready” having played 1.5 weeks before comes out firing on all cylinders. *Are teams that are bowl-eligible, but not in their conference championship games, allowed to practice the week between the end of the regular season and the conference championship?
  16. If anything, the SEC should schedule more top games earlier. Get them out of way and be primed to move up when the BIG teams beat each other up late. the BIG will have 2 in the top 5 and SEC will have 3 after the conference championship games. Book it
  17. 30 MLB teams in 2025. 28 play in MLB stadiums in 2025.
  18. Coming to finish off the two panels Helene didn’t get https://www.si.com/mlb/rays-tropicana-field-repairs-project-stadium-unfit-until-2026
  19. Is it though? rankings are often widely regarded as pointless through at least the first month
  20. Kentucky was going to be an afternoon or night game since August
  21. He’s grown on me. And after thinking sec shorts was better at the beginning of the season, he has consistently outperformed them lately (and by wider and wider margins). Loved the BCS logo Easter egg. I would be mad at him selling out to Allstate and covering up the “Go Cocks” cheerleader rear but as long as it doesn’t effect the quality of the product, I’m all for the guy making some money. Sec shorts would have been better off taking a bye week.. or just have 4 minutes of vandy pimp at Vandy.
