  1. and to be honest, if they had lost, they still controled their own fate in the conference against OSU and probably still get into the playoff at 12-1.
  2. they definitely got separation a few times against Ilinios, but it was also a tough throwing day.
  3. any airport with the rental cars in a terminal attached garage gets at least one added star. Which, aside from all the current construction at LAX is a big part of the problem there. I've had it take more than 30 min to get from the car drop to the terminal - absurd. Rental cars are even further away in Houston but at least the buses have a non-public interior road net.
  4. Pretty much. The 'why' is the hard part.
  5. 5 of 9 players that might have all been in the starting batting order together in a given game last season have been released/non-tendered/waived. No way to sugar coat that.
  6. For me there is no particular game that is critical at this point. You could stencil in a loss to the Bills and the rest of the schedule still has enough potential wins for a team that can play moderately well to make for a very successful segment of the rebuild.
  7. No, Jonelle was Frank O'Harris' room-mate
  8. did anyone on the list other than McCann land a starting line-up again?
  9. 4-6 projects out to `7-10. If we assume the next draft improves them by 3 wins you have a 10 win team. 3yrs from 3 wins to respectability's not bad - if thats how it plays out.
  10. If they gets some guys back it will should be a game. If none of Corum, Ediwards, Schoonmaker are back, not so much.
  11. Love that St. Brown is always blocking someone.
  12. Lions with a great drive, then can't buy a 1st down the rest of the quarter.
  13. The 3 pts on the rekick after Lynch missed a FG going into half-time but Kelly had called a late time-out so he got 2nd chance was the difference.....
  14. Never cared for Hartsfield. Have only been to SF a couple of times since they re-modeled. MSP got a big expansion of the security clearance area which improved it a lot - security capacity was the biggest shortcoming when I was going there a lot a few yrs ago. DTW is very plain but fine - my one complaint would be that at departures Delta does a lousy job with the traffic management for the various lines - Pre-check/TSApre-approved/Medallion etc. Visibility of the signage is poor and it's never clear which line is which, so they have to have people out there telling you where to go and keeping people in the right line, which is fine but seems silly when they could just make it easier to navigate in the first place so you didn't need the help. On the plus side, in my travels I have yet to go anywhere in the country where you get your bags back faster than DTW.
  15. down by 10 to early in the 4th LOL - Edit: make that 3.
  16. or just incompetence. Reports about Bakhmut sound terrible. Amazing/depressing a population can be so cowed to just keep marching over the cliff. Reports of possible IRGC killings of protesters tonight are also depressing.
  17. Bertuzzi still not at near full tilt. Still expecting more upside there ...shortly. LOL - I no more than post that and he scores!
  18. 2019 is when they dropped the role, but I think the cages behind the goalies went away before that..... Wiki says they moved the boxes early in the 2000's, maybe not the same at all arenas.
  19. Buddha's PAC10 hopes are down 14 early against UCLA.
  20. I bet an old fashioned goal judge wouldn't have missed that one. Anyone remember when they were done away with behind the goal?
  21. I'll take wins against anyone. I'm realizing how much I've missed having the Wings be able to play competitive hockey at least some of the time....
  22. Hronek with the Wings second tally. He definitely seems to be skating better this season.
  23. could be, though an IF doesn't make a 100 throws in a game and is not trying to throw breaking balls. It's more a theoretical question though. Pitch coaching does seem to have helped pitchers pick up 3 maybe even in some cases 5 mph. That's not trivial even if it might be enough to help Torkelson in particular. Candelario's arm is no great shakes for a 3B - he could (have) benefit(ed) from little more zip. Looking back past Candy - Lugo et al were just fill-ins while Candelario was at 1st. Castellanos' glove problems were bad enough we never got around to worrying much about his arm which was decent in any case, and before that Cabrera and Inge both had plenty of arm, though Brandon's wasn't always accurate.
  24. Not sure average throwing speed is the best measure, as on most throws there is not going to be a close play. That said in Baddoo's case it's irrelevant anyway because he can't hit his target whether he throws it hard or not. Velo value is pretty much negated if the receiver has to move any distance away from the tag point to catch the ball.
  25. Baddoos arm is less weak than compeletly unpredictable. And he throws like a lot of guys that spend a lot of time in the weight room. No fluidity/elasticity.
