  1. Somewhere Bill Walton is crying on his tie-dye. Have to assume that ASU and Utah won’t be far behind.
  2. Stanford is a blip on the radar of the Bay Area sports scene. They have an aging fanbase that is almost entirely alumni. They don’t really attract much from the regular sports fan in the Bay. USC probably has close to the same appeal locally. The stadium is at least half full of Trojans whenever they play up there. It’s one thing for Oregon State and Wazzu to draw 30k fans in their small rural locations but to do that in a major metro area like Stanford has done is telling at how little impact they have.
  3. Haase needs to find a new profession
  4. This is on Harris at this point. Needs to DFA Haase or else AJ will keep using him in the absolute worst spots
  5. Olson and Brieske both have major league stuff but you need be consistently on the corners to be an effective major league pitcher. Leave enough pitches over the center of the plate and it’s only a matter of time until you get shelled.
  6. Only a stubborn idiot gets suspended 4 games for lying about a minor infraction that would’ve had practically no punishment had he just admitted that he did it.
  7. Hateful Eight was fantastic. Add this to your queue.
  8. This He’s fantastic.
  9. It looks like it’s going to be very close.
  10. Never good to be comped to Greg Gohr
  11. There are probably 10 different jobs in this organization ranging from Asst GM, Hitting Coach, VP Player Development or Color Commentator that Curtis could do very well right now.
  12. Seems like Brad leaned from Benson and moved back rather than trading the late round pick. Hopefully Mims is something but the league is littered with fast guys that couldn’t run routes and get open.
  13. One could argue the entire Jets organization has questionable compete after their decision to start Zach Wilson the last 2 years.
  14. Big props for the Mariners for sporting 3 different uniforms this weekend.
  15. This young man has upper management written all over him.
  16. Agree on Holl. That’s the only move that I really don’t like. I like Husso. He can be really good with a better crew of blue liners in front of him. The sneaky move that I really like is Sprong. He seemed to always fill up the scorebook whenever I watched the Kraken last year. Really solid bottom six forward.
  17. What an amazing run by Red Bull but damn this has been a boring season. Very little drama on or off the circuit. RB will soon stop all work on this years car and start pouring energy into next and that should allow some other teams to close the gap and get on top of the podium. F1 was riding a wave of never seen before momentum and excitement. I’ll be interested to see how much this season slows it down. Probably not that much now but if next season is more of the same with everyone happily conceding to RB without any pushback or fireworks then I fear F1 will lose most of the new fanbase that they gained from DTS.
  18. My first thought was what they hell are they doing but as crazy as it sounds, $16M really is that much money anymore in the NBA. It’s probably right in line with his worth and exactly as you thought it could turn into a bargain if he continues to improve.
  19. This roster looks now looks like a real Eastern conference playoff contender. Should be a fun team to watch.
  20. They should make him go through the “car wash” on his way out.
  21. Non issue on what happens if he doesn’t sign. Sounds like the team and his agent agreed to pay him the #4 pick slot.
  22. The look is definitely douchey but he seemed like a good kid in the ESPN interview.
  23. He’s the new, hopefully injury-free, Riley Greene.
