  1. Yes, we all know. Nobody cares about the NBA regular season because 53% of teams make the playoffs. In fact, nobody really cares about the first round either. It shows that people only want about 8 playoff teams in a 30 team league.
  2. Thanks for putting the Astros back in the NL where they belong, but that's not likely to happen. They won their lone WS in the AL. They're stuck there for the long haul, but I'll go with it here. The biggest mistake you have is placing the Cards in the South (Mid-South sounds odd). They aren't separating from the Cubs. The NL North (odd to have an East, South, and West but no North) would be Cards, Cubs, Rockies, and Brewers. There really isn't a great option for team #4 in the NL South. It'd either be Cinny or Washington. Think I'd prefer the Nats to stay in division with the Braves. The AL South has the same 'who is team #4' problem. KC is far away from Nashville/NO and TB. Baltimore is the only other viable option, which places KC in the AL North and Cleveland in the AL East.
  3. I thought it was TV partners who liked the 7pm local start time as most people watch TV between 7/8pm - 10/11pm (that is, primetime).
  4. That's the part that surprised me the most. Luhnow said he didn't know. Suspended. O'Halloran said he didn't know. Not suspended. And this is the Red Sox's second offense in two years! I read the report to find out. It's got along with Not looking good for the bosses. Wait, what. I thought the players were employees?
  5. I read the 15 page report. The only useful part is how Watkins worked (pretty simple) and why it stopped for the 2018 post season and beyond (MLB sat in the replay room starting then). The remaining 14 pages are either a cover-up or joke. The most egregious reads as a 'why this isn't a big deal': Can you imagine if the Astros report said 'the information was only useful if the opposing team did not again change its sequence after the trash can bang passed along the information to players, and, only then, if the batter heard the bang before the pitch, understood the bang's meaning, and had time to swing.' The second worse is along with So where's the punishment for Cora or O'Halloran? Oh. I thought the players were employees?
  6. My kinda lady.
  7. Nobody's perfect, but 9-1 is pretty close. Must be embarrassing to have never beaten a conference opponent during the regular season.
  8. No thanks. Nice way to try to send coronavirus to a poster.
  9. Is it going to be the full, unedited HD version?
  10. Why not expand to 30? More games = more money no doubt...
  11. https://sports.yahoo.com/rob-manfred-says-red-sox-033825218.html "Rob Manfred says Red Sox sign-stealing investigation is complete; report to come before season starts" I have the popcorn ready.
  12. Now that the story has changed, it's not that interesting. Of course, none of us were surprised to read it was shut down by the NCAA or by Clemson out of fear of the NCAA. The NCAA would prefer more covid-19 suffering than student-athletes generating money for any cause.
  13. You know damn well there's a difference between 1970 and 1984, and that's when during the season the Coaches' Poll voted a champion. It'd be one thing if Texas claimed a NC after the second to last Coaches' Poll, but they aren't. Texas fans entering that Cotton Bowl already knew they were champions. Exiting they surely thought, "Sucks we lost our bowl game and the AP title."
  14. Don't forget those dipshits in Columbus claim 1970 as well from the National Football Foundation.
  15. Good need a collection of best Colt .45s games too
  16. I'm sure this is why BOB traded away Hopkins.
  17. That's not a "seems".
  18. what a POS
  19. The NBA has a bigger percent of teams make the playoffs than the NHL, 16 out of 30 vs NHL's 16 out of 31 (32 next year).
  20. I thought Galindo was neutered years ago.
  21. Preparing for the 2018 Red Sox report, he is.
  22. He is a cocky bastard, but he has to get arrested to reach Mayfield level.
  23. Has Bregman been arrested or is that just Mayfield?
  24. I think every cable company is dropping ESPN Classic. It's more of a VOD thing. Totally agree with the sentiment that it made no sense to cut out sections of the game to fill it in a time slot. Pisses me off that LHN does it for old Longhorn games!
