  1. Can he pitch?
  2. I'm at the point where I don't watch games on tv, I go to one game per season on average, what I spend on merchandise is very small, unless you count buying books on baseball. Why have I got to this stage? Largely the money. I don't know why it bothers me, but the stupid contracts turn me off. I can't relate to these players, and a fair percentage of them probably give zero f***s about the working people paying their wages. So I find it hard to cheer for the players instead of just the team. Not to mention the miniscule percentage of game time that involves actual action.
  3. Wait...the Marlins are still in operation?
  4. So, is this going out through the in door?
  5. Christ, we won a game. Is that even allowed?
  6. Dear John, I'm leaving you. It's not you, it's me. P.S. about a new stadium.....
  7. Sure glad we gave Sale the big extension. I'd hate to think he wasn't well paid while he sits on his ass all year recovering from TJ.
  8. Cleveland Wastelands?
  9. To me, the name "Chief Wahoo" is more racist than the actual logo, which just looks f***ing stupid and, frankly, embarrassing. Both should have been gone years ago. As for Washington, please don't think Snyder caved because he suddenly woke up one day and realized it was the right thing. When the sponsors start squeezing your balls, it can be a tremendous wake up call, because money is the language that everyone understands. And yet...those sponsors were happy with the arrangement for years....until the pressure was put on them.
  10. A proposal has been made to expand the Scottish Premiership to 14 teams. There would be one table still, but during the season the teams would split into top 6 and bottom 8, and at the end of the season, these groups of teams will not have played an equal number of games (34 and 40 respectively). Retarded.
  11. Maybe they can do something about his fugly face at the same time.
  12. And I'm good with everything because the Evil Empire has been broken up. If NE or TB wins the Super Bowl, I'm not going to get as mad as if Brady won another one in NE. And the only NFL jersey I ever bought was a Troy Aikman one. That was over 20 years ago and nowadays I hate the Cowboys with a passion.
  13. A friend of mine thinks all sport should be canceled through the whole of 2021. Too draconian?
  14. This year is the least attention I've paid to the draft. Have yet to even see a full list of first rounders, no matter who the Bears picked. I don't know if it's the lockdown, but suddenly football is not all that important to me. Might change once it comes back, hopefully on schedule.
  15. So if that was the right thing to do, how can rehiring him also be the right thing? I think the situation requires moving on permanently.
  16. Cardinals are pretty lame as well. Memphis Redbirds (AAA) Roster Springfield Cardinals (AA) Roster Palm Beach Cardinals (A Adv.) Roster Peoria Chiefs (A) Roster State College Spikes (SS) Roster Johnson City Cardinals ® Roster DSL Cardinals Blue ® Roster DSL Cardinals Red ® Roster GCL Cardinals ® Roster
  17. Been a while since I checked out minor league team names. I just looked at the listings to pick out some bad ones. Winston-Salem Dash Kannapolis Cannon Ballers (shouldn't it be Kannon? Come on, guys) Great Falls Voyagers Akron RubberDucks - maybe the worst of them all, and I'm not even 1/4 of the way through the listings. Rocket City Trash Pandas - that's what we all do. Worst contract ever. Stockton Ports - as in a physical port? Or the wine? Either is dumb. Northwest Arkansas Naturals - yeah, OK, I get the reference, but Unnaturals would be cooler. West Virginia Power - they probably get a ton of calls from people disputing their utility bill. Rocky Mountain Vibes Amarillo Sod Poodles - not even gonna check if that's a real thing.
  18. JD, the best hitter on the SOX, gets more at bats hitting 1st. Simple math.
  19. Saw this post last night, only just got Tee Bee Dee.
  20. Let's see Chavis play before deeming him ready/not ready.
  21. I suspect his time here will not be long at this rate.
  22. So the Yankees have been playing her recording of "God Bless America" for 18 years and only just now discovering the racist songs in her repertoire?
  23. Hurricanes have the worst logo in the league.
