  1. No idea. FLA went out of bounds and it was 2nd and short, clock stopped. I thought it could’ve been a clever play to jump offsides intentionally to give them the first down and rob them of at least one play. After the penalty but before the snap on 1st and 10, they wound the clock. Seemed incorrect and cost us 35 seconds.
  2. No, but only if you think he's going to keep hitting that way. I stopped expecting it a long time ago, especially when players have outlier statistical years about the time they are up for a contract extension. * Also, Jake Meyers hit 0.300 this year. Is he untradeable and expected to maintain that next season?
  3. I think some dumbass rich team would give good value for Yordan as a splash move where they can boast about his hitting and good contract. If good value is offered, I’d take it in a second and thank Yordan for his 2022 postseason bat. Peña’s trade value is likely at its all time peak this offseason. I don’t know if I’d do it, but we do have Paredes or Cam that could play 3B and slide Correa back to SS.
  4. I’ve seen a lot of speculation on punishments to the Clippers (fines, loss of draft picks, salary cap holds, owner suspension and/or forced to sell). All I’ve heard about the player is the contract will be voided. WTF? He clearly knew what they were doing. At a minimum he should be fined the amount of the fake NIL payments and/or suspended. Voiding his contract makes him a free agent and theoretically rewards him. NBA needs to send a message to players as well that might try that shit in the future.
  5. He usually rotates those kids at 1B, SS, P every inning (so none of the other kids get reps learning those positions). It manifests into the kids can never throw to 3B, home, or the 2B as a cutoff man. It's madness.
  6. We're approaching mutiny on our 7u fall rec ball team. It seems the head coach thinks (starting before the first game) the only way we can win the final championship game (assuming we make it) is a strategy of leaning on 3 kids, one of which is his son who he plays at SS. He scolds the other 9 players for making the correct baseball play, like throwing the ball in front of the lead runner, or 3B throwing to 2B for a force out, because "they are too risky for 6 and 7 year olds" and insists that if any other player fields a ball, they must throw it to one of the 3 "good" players no matter the situation or where those players are in the field. In practices, he assigned kids to a permanent "A", "B", and "C" group that run different drills based on how he wants to play in the game. The irony is that we could beat the top two teams by season's end if most of the roster got development and were allowed to attempt the correct plays, make mistakes, and improve. It sucks when you're 3 or 4 games into a season and you already have to write it off because most of the kids (including mine) aren't getting the right reps in practice and are being instructed to make incorrect plays in games. Now that my older son and his friends moved to select, I'm going to have to come out of retirement to coach the younger crew.
  7. Usually if it’s a drop dead stop time mid-inning and the home team is losing, you revert to the score before the last inning started. It would be weird to give the visitors an extra at-bat then call ball game.
  8. I’d have traded Framber by the deadline since he was at highest value, didn’t want a reasonable extension, and (in my perception) had a shitty attitude. I’d definitely shop Yordan. We know he’s an injury factory, but he still gets a lot of national hype and it would be considered a blockbuster trade for whoever gets him so hopefully the return would be good. DFA LMJ because he’s had bad juju for the team since his 2022 WS implosion. The Jose Abreu and Montero contracts are off the books this offseason, right? If Peña and Scott Boras are eyeing some mega extension based on one great season out of his four, I’d listen to trade offers for him too (Paredes 3B, Correa SS?). Same for Jake Meyers whose average this year should yield the best return we’d ever get for him. Reload AAA, see who’s ready to move up from AAAA, find value FA’s to fill in the gaps.
  9. Hopefully he shows up at practices and games to help with leadership and motivation. I love KD and his game, but the Rockets are in trouble if they depend on him as a team leader unless they are in a Twitter war. It’s time for Sengun, Tari, Jabari, and Amen to grow up.
  10. If he passes, Tweeder better watch his six. That fucker Kilmer is playing the long game.
  11. Will heaven have wifi, and if so do I need a VPN to continue posting on this site?
  12. CJ is represented by David Mulugheta. Prepare for the contract extension next year for highest dollars ever and no trade clause, then stage a forced exit.
  13. Is that really analogous to people saying Kirk got what he deserved or was asking for it by saying things the left considers hate speech? Some righty or NRA fanboy ever said the kids had it coming?
  14. Nobody on either side justified the murder of children. The right didn’t say FAFO to the kids or their families. It is a political and philosophical debate of whether somewhat neutering the 2nd amendment would stop (mass) murder or if completing banning guns would end murder AND if so is it worth undoing the original purpose of the 2nd amendment. Today was a political assassination and the response from some is that he FAFO by speaking his political beliefs, and many people are ok with or even celebrate that.
  15. While I admit to not know everything he’s ever said publicly, the crap I get on social media feeds has been mostly him arguing on college campuses against DEI polices or the purposes of the 2nd amendment to protect citizens from a tyrannical government. Is that what people are calling hate speech and racist? And people are piling on with analogies to mass shootings and mocking his position on the second amendment. This event does not appear to be the same category as school and other mass shootings. The former is mentally ill, or incels, or religious influenced mentally ill, and/or (however you want to categorize it) trans people who are also unstable committing acts of mass murder on victims they don’t directly know. Today was an assassination of one known targeted individual purely on political grounds.
  16. ITS FUNNY BECAUSE HES ASIAN
  17. Jordan Shipley and Robert Timmons?
  18. Does he know not to return kickoffs from 8 yards in the end zone? If so, sign him up for KR too.
  19. This is funny as hell but it’s a shame it has to come at UNC’s expense. They always seemed like good people with a beautiful campus to me. How many years are they locked in for on the Bill Belichick/Mike Lombardi nepotism gravy train?
  20. Yeah, assuming your coach has a bag full of good 2 pt plays.
  21. Here’s a t-shirt for anyone who wants to kick a field goal from the 1 yard line in the 2nd quarter.
