    NL: DH or no DH

    I used to love how the DH significantly altered the way baseball is managed in the NL vs the AL, but with interleague play and the need to make the game more interesting, I say adopt the DH in both leagues. Watching most pitchers try to hit is almost embarrassing.

    2017 MLB Postseason Thread

    Crazy how Sports Illustrated called this 3 years ago and their cover boy is the MVP.  I'll agree with Mexi that the flooding gave the Astros an edge. It's something similar to the Saints winning the Super Bowl in 2009 and the Red Sox winning in 2013. Teams rally around the "____ Strong" mantra...

    Papa John is Pissed

      See I can't do Pizza Hut b/c the damn crust is disgusting. I don't mind Dominos thin crust pizzas. Cheap, chain pizza for me has to be Little Caesar's. I got kids man and $5 for a large pizza is the shit.

    Preseason AP Top 25

    This might be the most wide open of a preseason poll in recent memory as their isn't a clear favorite.    Little surprised Bama didn't crack the top 25 out of the gate.    Props to Northwestern for their first preseason AP poll appearance in school history.   Louisville will be college...

      Nah man, I can't really get into network tv shows, especially the crap Fox puts on.

    College Football Playoff Rankings

    As of 10/31:     Not much to disagree with from me. We can get bent out of shape about #4 but I think Clemson deserves benefit of the doubt, being on the road and without their quarterback. Wins over Auburn and at Virginia Tech are impressive.    Notre Dame has the best path to the playoff...

    Papa John is Pissed

      I live about 25 mins from Louisville and I swear, people here don't really care for Papa Johns.    According to Forbes, the company JUST lost $70 million in less than 24 hours after releasing their third quarter finances. Investors are bailing quick. I'd count on your local Papa Johns to be...

    Official MMA Talk Thread

      Carwin was up and coming then. Brock beat Carwin... I'm sure you're implying.  Amazing to think Carwin fell off the face of the Earth so quick.   I remember being torn back then. The MMA fan in me hated that Brock was given a golden path to the title but the WWE fan in me fucking loved it. In...

    Girardi will not return, according to sources

      The Red Sox did finish last in MLB in home runs. Either way, dumping a budding star in Benintendi doesn't help. I'd love to see him GTFO the AL East but don't underestimate his power stroke. Benny is the hitter you want near a Stanton in the lineup and not a guy traded for him.  The way I see...

    Papa John is Pissed

      Thought it was great the first couple times I'd had it many years ago. Feel like people are just over it. There's not much they can do different with their pizza. They also franchised the shit out of the brand quick.    Much like the NFL, Papa John over-saturated the marketplace and diluted...

    Making up for 5 runs with 8 innings left and Kershaw in the pen isn't a huge deal.... except the Dodgers keep leaving runners on base.

    Kyrie Irving is Dumb...or a Troll

    our President*   The circumstances surrounding his first "protest" led me to believe it wasn't intended to be a protest at all.  Cameras caught Kaepernick failing to get off the bench when the Anthem played.  He was asked about it and seemed to be ad-libbing. Go back and re-watch the postgame...

    La Russa joins Red Sox

    There was a rumor he'd be Cora's bench coach, believe it or not, but in reality the 73-year old heads to the front office. La Russa will serve in a role similar to that in which he served in Arizona this past season.   I had recently read a positive article about La Russa's 2017 with the...

    2018 NFL Draft Thread

      Any semi-prolific QB in college that doesn't rely on the read-option to be effective is over-hyped by draft experts. Just wish the NFL would have a massive meeting of the minds and agree to ditch the pro-style offenses as soon as Brady retires.

    Kyrie Irving is Dumb...or a Troll

      Still stacking your chips on Kaep, huh? Okay... his message was so important until it meant he couldn't get a job as a backup to the backup.  Awfully authentic protest.     And I'm wondering if you were this arrogant last November, when you and all your Liberal friends were so confident...

    2017 NFL Gameday Thread

      Kinda? No, really...actually. It requires a college education on top of certifications in order to be a full time teacher. And there's a huge demand for them.    Of course the NFL is entertainment and our society will irresponsibly spend more on entertainment than they will public education. ...

    2018 NFL Draft Thread

    Think we're in for another Eric Fisher-as-top-pick-type draft.  Plenty of solid players coming out but no real home run to take at the first overall spot.   Says a lot of the poor QB situation when both the Niners and Browns are using (some failing) trade deadline now to secure the spot.
