  1. I enjoyed the Olympics very much and was a little sad that they weren't on tonight
  2. and now pitches that were balls for Shota are strikes for Cleveland
  3. But that's why they throw out the highest and lowest scores
  4. I mean, you're never going wrong with Snoop and Dre
  5. Small sample size, but O’Hoppe has been insanely bad since the deadline
  6. Only the third time the Cubs have swept the season series from the White Sox
  7. I thought he was clearly on the bag before Nico got to him. Did the White Sox lose their challenge earlier in the game?
  8. He looked 100% safe on the replay, but ok
  9. Tangentially related, I have to be careful (as a university professor) to not call the students "kids". They're all adults
  10. Sure, but it looks like some of the possible storylines that might have been "juicy" just kinda weren't. - "Cocky and confident rookie QB comes to camp...how will he handle the pressure?" - He's really coachable and everyone seems to like him - "Ryan Poles needs to figure out how to extend some of his other offensive stars" - He signs DJ Moore quickly and with little controversy - "Exciting position battles at the first preseason game!!" - No one of consequence plays and the game is rained out PRODUCER: "We only have 22 minutes of show here.....we didn't throw away that haircut footage, did we?"
  11. You could have given me infinite guesses to name the White Sox manager and I never would've produced Pedro Grifol
  12. What's good for the Bears (drama free camp, hard work, etc) is bad for Hard Knocks. We, as Bears fans, will enjoy the show because its about our team. I'm going to guess that we will hear complaints of it being "boring" by the more casual HK fans if the show continues like episode 1.
  13. Bearded Flus > clean shaven Flus start printing those Super Bowl tickets
  14. It’s only awkward because Boog has a mountain of actual statistics in front of him while Girardi spouts out his opinions as “facts”. Boog tries to set him up with questions about his managerial days, and then Girardi says something dumb. “Joe, who was a player that you managed who was a really great base runner?” *Girardi names someone who is a statistically terrible base runner * *Boog facepalms for the seventeenth time*
  15. I expect that the Dodgers will sign Soto with some sort of "we'll pay you $1/year now but your great-grandkids will get $10 billion in the year 2125" deal
  16. Not shocked that the first Hard Knocks was very Caleb-centric. I expect more rookie stuff in future episodes.
  17. It's amazing to me that a guy who looks as jacked as Nico has such pitiful power numbers
  18. Festa is very bad, so he will throw 7 innings of 1 run ball
