  1. If Boston can give Cleveland this much trouble with the ball movement and switching it's hard to imagine them beating the Warriors. Of course LeBron will do some crazy things I'm sure.
  2. Holy Christ! A good game. If Smart can score he might be a better option than IT since he can defend a little. I think Boston probably caught Cleveland off guard so we still won't get a good series but it'd be cool if we did.
  3. that was a no doubt opposite field bomb and it looked effortless.
  4. It's really confusing that the Cubs have a dong and Arrieta hasn't given one up yet.
  5. Happ must have told the Brewers that he'd eat their family if they doubled him up on that play.
  6. End this game now. I got a bunch of horsefeathers to do.
  7. Don't agree with Ball here. But a big ass part of this story that is consistently being left out is that Leahy was on air really talking trash on Lavar as a businessman and especially criticizing him as a parent. I thought Leahy's comments (which can be heard here: http://uproxx.com/dimemag/lavar-ball-kristine-leahy-fs1-parenting-cowherd-rant-video/2/) are out of line and disrespectful. Obviously, Ball handled it in the probably the worst way possible by talking down to her on her own show. Instead of confronting her about her disrespect, he just gave it back without context for most. As for the "don't market to women" stuff, I think that comes off as sexist but I don't think that was the intent. It only comes off as sexist because of the "stay in your lane" comment and because he was trying to dismiss her for her comments. There's plenty of brands that don't market to women....especially athletic companies in their early stages like Nike, Jordan, etc. I think Ball could have answered the marketing to women question better if he went into the studio with a level head without Leahy's comments. Of course, that's also assuming he has any kind of common sense or ability to articulate, which is in doubt. Basically, 2 wrongs don't make a right. She can't say the stuff she said and then play the victim like she's being attacked for no reason. He can't continue to be an horsefeathers and throw a hissy fit because people treat him like he's an horsefeathers. Ball IS a terrible parent, and this repeated mantra of "durrrrrrrrrrr, you don't criticize someone else's parenting" is dumb, especially when it's about someone trying as hard as possible and as obnoxiously as possible to show the world that they're a terrible parent and person. yeah, the not criticizing someone else's parenting thing is weird. Isn't this pretty much like the weird guy who lives through their kid playing little league only on all kinds of steroids topped with a guy trying to profit off their kids success. I mean, the guy claimed at one point he deserves to make money off the kid because he created him starting with picking the woman or something like that. That's pretty horrible stuff really. Ball can play and I don't really like having to root against him because of his stupid dad but that's pretty much going to happen.
  8. I wish they would have gone after Cousins before he went to New Orleans but friggen' LeBron isn't being stopped by anyone in the east anytime soon. I'm not even sure the Warriors beat them right now and I thought the Warriors were sure champs once they got Durant.
  9. Man, I was at least hopeful that the Celtics would give the Cavs the same "trouble" the Bulls gave the Heat in the ECF. Like, short series but decent games
  10. So Bautista gets hit in the first, I assume it's on purpose but if not the point is probably the same, then comes around and scores. Hitting a player, giving them a successful at-bat is weird retribution.
  11. I like how he just went to the conspiracy instead of it's just a bad call.
  12. Ross is the color guy for the Cardinals/Red Sox game....he isn't doing too bad from the few minutes I watched. He probably can't do Cubs games though because he needs to be unbiased and the anger the team would have towards the booth would be too much and would probably end in some Kent Merker/Steve Stone scenario
  13. Sweep this series....sweep the homestand....screw it, sweep the rest of the season
  14. Warm weather and we're hitting a bit....I like it
  15. I kinda hate the defending champion Cubs, still better than hating the normal Cubs.
  16. the level of dongs in this one sufficed. Do it again
  17. Beating up on the Reds bullpen has a nice 2016 feel to it.
  18. I want some parody in the NBA. I mean, it's kind of cool to have a sport where the team who wins the championship, you feel is the best but the whole knowing who's in the finals before the season starts thing gets a little lame.
  19. Going in I thought the Wizards could challenge the Cavs but it wouldn't surprise me to see the Celtics battle them too. They're very well coached.
  20. The Spurs franchise is ridiculous and it wouldn't be too surprising if they beat Golden State.
  21. I think I'm just going to play whatever game was going on a year ago every day the rest of the season and not watch this one any more.
