  1. Someone on the Nats leaking private medical information. Cool cool cool
  2. The Zach Davies Cy Young season begins today
  3. Insane. What a heartbreaker for UCLA
  4. I would have bet money that Gonzaga was going to win this by double digits. Did not see OT coming
  5. Why is there a 90 minute break between games?
  6. Pirates with some sweet defense this game
  7. Bryant out here whiffing on center-cut, 89mph fastballs
  8. Right. Good luck finding ANY state with a legislature that isn't enacting questionable laws all day. Rhode Island, enjoy the All-Star Game
  9. I didn't listen today, but I have honestly never noticed the ad reads being anything excessive. All the ads packed in behind home plate at Wrigley is much more offensive to me. I guess we're beyond the point of ads needing to be tasteful and now are just going to cram them in wherever there is open space. I'm with Derwood here. I love Pat and Ron, but there is a lot of ad reading going on in these games, even compared to just a handful of years ago. Is it tied to the Ricketts buying the team? I don't listen to the radio often, but the ad reads have easily tripled in the last few seasons
  10. I didn't listen today, but I have honestly never noticed the ad reads being anything excessive. All the ads packed in behind home plate at Wrigley is much more offensive to me. I guess we're beyond the point of ads needing to be tasteful and now are just going to cram them in wherever there is open space. It was literally everything. Ad read for the cleanup hitter, for strikeouts, for doubles, there are now 2 or 3 different sponsored "player of the game" reads in the 9th. It was insane
  11. I caught the last three innings on the radio. The radio broadcast is completely unlistenable anymore. Every single thing is sponsored by someone, and the sponsorship text Pat has to read is always overly long. I feel like 80% of Pat's broadcast is reading ad copy. It's the worst
  12. You can't resign from a job that you haven't done all year
  13. Sammy Sofa fell asleep at the wheel with the game thread starter thread. Boo this man!
  14. These announcers SUUUUUCK
  15. Woodson is an IU alum who played for Bobby Knight, so he checks boxes for the boomer donors/boosters. His NBA career is a good selling point for recruits. Matta is there to provide mentorship/guidance (as Woodson has never coached college)
  16. They are who everyone thought they were, and the schedule caught up. Yeah it looked and felt unsustainable as it was happening. Was hoping they built up enough of a cushion and good vibes to hang on for a playoff spot but they just arent good enough imo. The good news for you is that Columbus is stacked with Tampa and Florida games moving forward
  17. I hear San Diego has one we might be interested in...
  18. That is not a big market pitching staff. Yikes
  19. Buffalo has now lost 17 straight Now that’s how you tank
  20. Well, succes then?
  21. New players, still no defense
