  1. WTF are the Texans doing? The Cowboys Jumbotron is already ridiculously large and their new one will dwarf it. When you go to a game at Cowboys Stadium (now AT&T Stadium, I guess) you end up watching on the Jumbotron because it is too distracting. It's an amazing piece of technology but it detracts from the game. There is a very strong sense that fans are being drawn away from the stadium to watch games, and teams are desperate to find gimmicks to keep them in attendance. the prevailing thought is that the stadium experience should match/exceed the home viewing experience on a technological level
  2. New nickname: Jeor Mormont?
  3. The irony is that in high school, the pitcher is often also the best hitter on the team (as they're often the best all around athlete). Then they go to the minors and never hit again
  4. I'm usually anti-traditionalist, but a little part of me HATES the idea of paying a guy a lot of money to be a fat, unathletic free swinger who can't field but can only hit and huff-n-puff his way around the bases
  5. I'm encouraged by his steady increase in imaginary hits
  6. Not a gif, but :shock: http://wapc.mlb.com/play/?content_id=29653669&partnerId=as_mlb_20130813_10739894
  7. again, why is this an entirely home grown team (outside of Stanton)? That's not how baseball works
  8. http://thereisnocloud.files.wordpress.com/2011/03/oldman_yelling_at_cloud.jpg
  9. So Kim wants a threesome, right? http://cdn2.modernman.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/baseball-wives-OF-Kim-DeJesus-v1.jpg For Rizzo's sake, I hope so
  10. CHALLENGE ACCEPTED
  11. I forgot that guy existed
  12. I hate how ESPN forced that Johnny Football nickname on an unknown freshman, then forced America to vote him the Heisman Championship
  13. HIs arm will fall off before he turns 25
  14. FWIW, everyone here in Columbus knows it's garbage, and the general consensus is that anything less than 12-0 is unforgivable because of it
  15. It'll never happen, but I'd love scheduling to be taken out of the hands of the school AD's. I know the conferences set the conference schedule, but the OOC has gotten so amazingly lame that it's hardly worth playing 90% of the games. One FCS school is ridiculous enough, but when a powerhouse like Bama can schedule TWO in one year? GIve me a break.
  16. So Alabama doesn't play Georgia, Florida or South Carolina, and has LSU at home. Oh, plus two FCS schools. If they don't sleepwalk their way to the NC game, it'll be a major upset
  17. I think he just likes playing in Japan. I mean, who wouldn't. Anyone who likes natural grass fields
  18. Police could have pressed charges without her consent, but apparently the video is pretty inconclusive
  19. There is only one right answer /FDB
  20. Am I the only one saddened by this? A-Rod was an amazing player and it sucks that it ends like this
  21. One of the oddest moves, but ... Done and done. I thought Cruz was out for some reason? Did I totally eff that up?
  22. The Aramis walk off vs the Brewers is one of his greatest moments as a Cub. I remember watching that game in a Cleveland hotel while waiting to go to an Indians game. My kid was napping and I woke her up when I cheered
  23. That's a different argument
  24. Imagine how much better her be if he ran out routine grounders And was white @thekapman
  25. PED's don't make you a once in a generation baseball talent
