  1. You can watch NBA or NHL games for just 7 bucks per game !!!!!! There won't be any free sports on TV by 2030. Well, maybe the occasional MAC football game.
  2. Sure, they need someone to pair up with him. Goldschmidt could be a mentor. They need something. Maybe Mark Canha is available again !!!!!
  3. I thought Josh Paschal played pretty well against Houston and even got a sack. He should be able to make some noise with Z in the lineup. But next year Z and Hutch? Wow.
  4. Why even speculate on Sasaki, everyone knows he's going to be a Dodger.
  5. That's what I was thinking, Tremblay is a common Canadian name, but Litghow didn't do a Canadian accent and he would have. Of course being related to Mario Tremblay, this would have infuriated Patrick Roy
  6. I want Indiana to win so badly this week. What a great story that is. When I was in my first two years of college my high school friend went there and we road tripped to Bloomington a couple of times and had a blast. It's really a cool little town. I actually went to the rock quarry where they shot "Breaking Away", which is one of my favorite movies of all time - still to this day. The slanted rock that the guys in the movie were laying on has been graffitti'ed like crazy and the water was not very clear anymore. The locals really discouraged people from visiting that spot. I used to have this dream about needing to see someone at 833 S. Olive St. in Bloomington. There is actually a S. Olive St too, but no house with that address. Wonder what that dream meant.
  7. I don't think they lose this one, but down the stretch I feel like they need to lose one that they shouldn't for them to kind of re-focus. Sometimes that can help.
  8. Not worried about Goff. Two passes were tipped, the other was a throw punt and yes, he made some bad throws. But if you can get away with a clunker like that and win.......... Besides, when the game was on the line and they needed passes completed he was back to his old self. People just look for reasons with Quarterbacks, Goalies and Closers, don't they? I really doubt Goff plays like that again. Having a game like that can actually be a good thing going forward.
  9. Gee, if we have a weak spot in the next few years and a good player that might take a little bit of a paycut to try to get a ring, it's that kind of stuff that will resonate.
  10. Who gives a **** what he says. That dude knows next to nothing about anything outside the NBA and he is completely unwatchable with all the shouting. He ruined ESPN.
  11. The only thing that threw me about the movie is 2 Americans being considered finalists for Pope (unless Lithgow is supposed to be Canadian). I am guessing the two were Americans
  12. Cardinal Tedesco yells near the end.
  13. So it was his back or hip that made him swing at pitches a foot and a half outside of the strike zone?
  14. I would rather listen to more crickets.
  15. It's an actual movie without a bunch of yelling or super heroes or CGI or blood. A good old DRAMA. We don't get those too much anymore and when we do they are usually smaller indies and with both the Main and Maple Art closing, there aren't many places to see those anymore (when they are new).
  16. I'd rather just stick with Vierling in that role. He's fine there. He's already here - assets don't have to be sent elsewhere to have him here. It would have been like trading Bobby Higginson for Jayson Werth...........same guy, basically.
  17. The team is competitive year after year and they average 16K And a lot of that attendance is there to see the Yankees, Red Sox, Tigers, Guardians and Orioles. They just aren't all that into it. Might help if the stadium wasn't a concrete bunker with no personality and hard to get to. And to think, Tom Monaghan looked into moving the Tigers there.
  18. Yeah, 1000 yards = 71.4 yards per game Now it's 58.8 yards per game, which isn't very eye-opening In order to equal what 1,000 yards was then it's 1,214 yards Plus now, it's more about All Purpose yards with how often running backs catch passes compared to then.
  19. And honestly, why should the taxpayers foot the bill. I see how it works in some places with a deep passion for a team, or a historic team, where loads of businesses depend on that team. Tampa has none of that. Lukewarm fanbase that is just as likely to be rooting for the road team, no real roots, they jettison their anchor star players the second they deserve raises and there is no real financial district around that awful stadium. Nashville would flip out over a Major League Team. The rumored stadium site right next to the football stadium. Lots of things just walking distance or a quick shuttle away. The Rays are a bit of an afterthought in Tampa.
  20. Yeah, they're done in Tampa. They're moving to Nashville.
  21. Clout Chasers on the internet are one of the biggest Pet Peeves for me. There is one named Johnny Somali who goes to countries who are famous for their politeness (Japan and South Korea) and stirs up trouble by verbally assaulting regular people and smashing things in stores and throwing food all over the place. People give him money for this. It explains a lot about the state we're in as a country here. Americans are basically trash to the rest of the world. People in Korea started hunting him and he has been assaulted several times (something Koreans typically don't do). He was trying to flee the country, but since South Korea is a peninsula with the only escape by land being North Korea, they found him and arrested hmi. Anyway, he's being indicted for several things like using AI to post pictures of him doing sexual things with a woman who doesn't even know him. He's also got about 30 other charges pending and his passport has been revoked This is how he was making a living. A better living than most of us. How sad.
  22. But we already have Matt Vierling. He's just a slightly better-hitting version of Vierling. Don't need to trade a prospect to get Vierling.
  23. And he's already here. Aim higher than this, please. (not you, Chris & Scott)
  24. I guess this is the week we'll really see.
