    Like, a week and a half in some states.

    …and Ross booted him out of the game Cleveland immediately gets an infield hit on a play Javy would've easily made. Today's going great

    Any time I see a church with "Community" or "Bible" in the name, I just assume bad things. Pair them together and oh boy I guess you get some horsefeathers

    Link Well. That's not ideal. Apparently the minister might have also been defrauding Zobrist's charity.

    For now, very little - the ruling only affected education-related expenses like providing laptops and stuff like that - but Kavanaugh's dunkfest in his opinion opens the door for more civil suits to be brought.

    God bless MLB.TV's "switch to audio feed" option. Does it actually work now? Last time I tried it, the audio was way out of sync.It is still a bit out of sync. Audio is probably half a second ahead.

    Joc must lead baseball by a lot in home runs inexplicably not leaving the ballpark.

    So Dempster is pretty much a permanent 3rd guy at this point, I guess.

    I was morbidly curious how ridiculous the performance would get so that's kind of a bummer.

    Hope that 320+ foot flyout by Rizzo isn't the best contact we make all night

    I think Wendell Kim is dead. You know I actually thought he might be but I didn't know if I was remembering wrong. Yep, just looked it up and he's left us

    Wavin' Wendell is on his couch somewhere thinking that send might have been excessive

    Hmm ok. If you wanted to keep it like it used to be, all the G5 schools should form their own subdivision and play for a title. A lot of things bug me about the college football setup but the fact that over half the teams have no shot to win it grinds my gears the most Many of those teams that had no shot to win joined FBS after it became clear that no one outside the current Power 5 would have a chance. People act like they were tricked into joining. And yes, I know that before they literally had no chance and now they'll literally have one even though the end result is still no title ever, and I guess that's good, but I'm not going to pretend like I'm super excited about it. It occurred to me yesterday that the 2008 MAC championship game disaster might have cost Ball State (then #12, though who knows how a committee would've ranked them) a playoff berth under the proposed system which seemed darkly amusing.

    Jed needs to get us a starter right freaking now.

    I'm not telling you it makes sense. It's just my preference. I love college football in large part because very little about it makes any sense at all.

    4 is not good as implemented - a true plus one after the bowls would've been better, not that it would've slowed playoff creep - and 12 will probably be better. I'm just annoyed that the only sport that truly required season long greatness to win a title is going out the window and that there's essentially no way the current ruling class will ever miss a playoff again (they weren't anyway, but it was in play). They put the idea of single season-altering outcomes on life support when they went to 4 and 12 is pulling the plug.

    I'm not saying anything you're saying is wrong, but Michigan basketball played in the national effing title game twice in a five-year span and was a 1 or a 2 seed in each of the two tournaments played since that 2018 runner-up finish. They have been extraordinarily more successful than the football team. And speaking as a fan of a college hoops team that made the Elite 8 twice in a row in '15 and '16 (before utterly collapsing on itself since), I speak from experience when I say I don't remotely blame you if that has made you a bigger UM hoops fan than football fan of late. Anyway, I just have my doubts that the era of good feelings about 'bigger access' or whatever will last a few years into the 12-team event and people notice that the only meaningful difference in the final results is that current second-tier type teams like Michigan (and, frankly, Notre Dame) end their seasons with meaningful losses rather than meaningless wins.

    As one Athletic commenter said, the fans should probably be masking, but if a fan catches COVID-19, it won't force several players on our favorite baseball team into quarantine. Being a baseball player sometimes comes with headaches that the average person doesn't have to worry about.

    I just Googled and didn't see anything to confirm the antibody treatment thing is true. It certainly doesn't seem to be relevant now, or else Heyward wouldn't have been so ridiculously defensive about not being vaxxed.

    I would love to be so secure in a lucrative job that I could do something as dumb as not get vaccinated while really sucking at said job and not worry about losing said job.

    I could get used to this version of Davies

    Nice baserunning O'Neill

    Got some bad news about how national broadcasts work

    I actually think AJ is doing a good job *shrug* He's meh to OK but he also spent about 5 minutes saying essentially "Joc changed teams for the first time this offseason and it takes a bit to adjust". Drives me nuts when guys overtalk.
