    Well obviously they won't sign him unless he's ok not being the closer. It's not like they're gonna sign him and then he's gonna get all mad about not being the closer. But yes, him being a bad pitcher now is a concern.

    I'm not going to claim exhaustive knowledge of the process, but my mental model is that they aren't reviewing every audio clip they have each year. If that's the case, then they definitely screwed up more than what I was picturing, but the fact that they've got that in there at all(a 20 year old song with that title) is probably an indicator that whatever list they're pulling from wasn't being reviewed with much scrutiny, if at all. Well the 20 years old doesn't surprise me. They play "Whoop there it is" after home runs after all. Obviously that's not the real problem though.

    Wins Loses PCT If the Chicago Cubs play .500 for the rest of the season, they would finish with a record of 96 66 The Chicago Cubs Would finish the season going 23 23 0.500 The Saint Louis Cardinals would need to finish to catch the Chicago Cubs 34 10 0.773 The Pittsburgh Pirates would need to finish to catch the Chicago Cubs 37 10 0.787

    The only possible way it could be unintentional is if it's a song they commonly play between innings or something, but I don't recall hearing it when I've attended games this year.

    They looked rather lackluster in the games I watched. There must be a reason no one ever wins the olympics after winning the world cup. Mexico's elimination on the men's side was absolutely shocking. There were some odd roster choices but the fundamental problem with the WNT is baked into their CBA. There are contractual provisions regarding calls ups that make it extremely difficult for a manager to turn over the roster, which tends to result in stagnation when a generation of players starts to look past prime. Basically there are very low limits on the number of days a player who isn't already under a WNT contract can be called into a camp so going into a tournament a manager can either call up a new player or a veteran; they couldn't call both into camp and evaluate and go with the best option. Which is how you end up with Megan Rapinoe, 7 months removed from an ACL tear playing heavy minutes in the Olympics. Not for nothing, but Jill Ellis is not a very good manager either. Mexico struggling in Brazil doesn't surprise me; most of their best talent is on the senior roster. And Carli Lloyd is already talking about 2019 WC and 2020 Olympics...she'll be 37 and 38 for those. I will say I'm excited to see Mallory Pugh develop.

    I don't think they like the ex-coach. Yep. Pia used to be the US coach and now is the Sweden coach, and there's definitely some drama going on there.
