One of the most brutal things I've ever watched

No worries. To further clarify, I'd have voted for Bonds, Sosa, Clemens and McGwire. Not Palmeiro.

It's not dishonest at all. My rule is that if a player was suspended by the league once there was a testing system in place, he was cheating the system. If he wasn't, I just judge on the field. If you disagree with my method, that's fair, but to call it dishonest is off base.

to be clear ... my rule is and has always been:
- Was the player suspended by the league once a testing system was in place? If yes, he's a no for me. If not, on the field results play.

I also think we need to lower the bar for starting pitchers moving forward.

All pieces of the puzzle.

I'm on this list. Why am I not allowed to vote for Pettitte without voting for Manny and/or A-Rod?

yes, the NBA famously never has repeat champs or runs of championships from one team

We live in a tumultuous world. But I take solace in the fact that the 2010 University of Alaska Fairbanks hockey intro video remains the most unhinged thing I’ve ever seen.

And once again you can only shake your head and wonder how a group of people came together and decided it was a good idea to trade a player and person like this.

Forty years ago MLB teams opened their books to an independent economist and were proven to be lying liars who lied.

Until they open their books that way again, let that be your default assumption about any claims they β€” and their media water carriers β€” make about their finances.

Dodgers spend 73% of their revenue; Brewers spend 41%

You fought the good fight. All you can do. Good job.

After Game 1 of Cubs Wild Card I told my wife I missed this and I didn't. Feeling like you're gonna die for 2.5 hours, but hey, you might be happy when it ends!

Bad teams play bad baseball, pt. N+1:

Pirates start 3-5 with a BB and HBP against one of the worst starters in baseball.

Sacrifice bunt!

Pirates are 1-12 since.

I’m sure they just need more revenue sharing and a payroll cap and maybe a pony.

I love Last Jedi so much. Rise of Skywalker was disappointing, yeah

pretty much everything, but if i had to single something out, it's Rey being such a badass. One moment? I'll go with her using the force to get the lightsaber toward the end of Force Awakens. When the lightsaber flies by Kylo

absurdly consistent. Haven't been more than five above or below .500, haven't been swept in a three game series. Haven't won more than five in a row. It's funny

Cade Horton with a 1.05 ERA in his last six starts. 0.00 in last four

I don't think a casual would see a fourth home run and scoff due to the pitching matchup, no.

And it's such a hard feat, no one should bother with such trivialities imo.

Did you break down all the non-competitive no-hitters? There have been a lot.

26.07.2025 23:28 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

And i have no doubt the average, casual sports fan has broken it down like this

We are smart enough to narrow it down to high-level feats by players
