    I don't think that is how it works, craig. Or even why it would work that way? Like if 96 leads to 91-92 then what would he have to Max on to get the extra tick or two? Roberts was a 90-92 guy as is, doubts he's adding mass and strength to stay in the same range and occasionally hit a higher peak That isn't what he said.

    Yeah that was cool. I missed New Hampshire crouch guy.

    Come for the Dave Owen game winning RBI. Stay for the 3 seconds of Ronnie Woo Woo footage. My library had the Sandberg Game (and the Kerry Wood game) on DVD, which I watched a good 7 years ago, but I must have fast forwarded past the Alou parallel. That's horsefeathering crazy.

    The concern is not the actual athletes spreading the virus. They get tested too much for that to matter at all. Its the audience spreading the virus (which, in case you didn't know, is a MUCH larger population than the athletes, much more at risk to die from the virus, and does not have access to testing to tack and prevent the virus's spread) and how they make money off of actually playing the games that matters. But yeah, if you want to handicap things you are obviously free to. I'm also free to say that's ridiculously wrong, right? What audience? Nobody is playing sports in fronts of fans this year. Nope. NFL will have people watching live, in stadiums. Book it.

    I wont bore you with the site but: COVID-19 is believed to spread mainly from person-to-person, between people who are in close contact with one another (within about 6 feet) or through respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes. https://covid19.wustl.edu/health-safety/ how does that not happen in, say, the nfl?

    The NFL is the most likely sport to happen, so don't go into handicapping for a profession.

    Oh, I've found mlb.tv to be completely reasonable when it comes to subscription issues. Did I say reasonable? I mean horrible. Totally horsefeathering horrible.

    Score! The "Eat fried chicken until death" t shirt I got last Christmas remains topical. Yu is the best.

    I'm just going to assume he's an anti-vaxxer or something.

    ...not that I'm disagreeing with your overall point, but isn't a shortened, disrupted season exactly the type of season a 32+ SP should thrive in?

    I've never made baseball WS bets. I think I might start.

    Go Packers!

    Only two hours too late.

    I spent around a grand for a 32 inch in 2004 or 2005 that was HD and it was a big deal. Hardly any cable channels in HD. I bought a 32 inch HD TV in 2006 with frequent player points on Pokerstars, and yeah, the only HD content back then was blu ray (which I didn't have and wouldn't have for many years later) and OTA.

    This millenium? Carimi and Williams immediately come to mind (not that it changes the overall point) I had to look up the name but Columbo was the guy I always used to think of as the “well that didn’t work so let’s never draft a lineman again” pick.

    I love this board.

    I think this is easily the best LWT since lockdown:

    I was thinking that the entire episode. Now, maybe his three percentage (best career percentage of ALL TIME) was super amazeballs because Jordan and Pippen spread defenses so thin, but his shooting stats can only lie so much. He was one of the best ever. Given that outside of (most) of his years with Chicago the dude's overall value was pretty meh, that bold part does seem pretty key. The prime of his career was all with the Bulls, his season without Jordan in Chicago was still bonkers, and he had a +.500 3% elsewhere. He was a really, really good long distance shooter.

    I've been on a Soul Coughing kick for the past few weeks, so that was cool.

    I don't want the PA to give an inch on further salary reductions. Like Andrew Miller said in that story, player salaries have never been adjusted either way by attendance before and there's no good reason it should start now. Seriously. I hope they ask for hazard pay.

    Stop bringing up the Jets before you get this locked again.
