RIP Dikembe Mutombo. Died of brain cancer.
-
Yep. I’ve got no issue with the refs initial call. It certainly looked bad from his angle so I understand why he gave the red.
-
Going to need someone to explain to me how this is a red card. I get that Fernandes goes high and it looks bad. But he went high because he slipped and not only that, he just trips Maddison and never gets him with the studs. If he had slipped and got Maddison in the knee with his studs, okay. That could take out a guys knee. But we can't be giving straight reds for tripping a guy. VAR cleared it too and didn't even have the ref take a look. Not sure it would have affected the outcome since Tottenham were in control but you never know. ManU still had 45 minutes at home to tun it around.

2024 Other Games/Playoffs

Arizona is pretty F’d right? Whoever wins Game 1 is in and won’t be playing anyone in Game 2. I’d be pretty pissed if I was Arizona because they absolutely could have gotten these games in but didn’t. -
Hendricks today: 7 1/3 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 81 pitches. Hendricks G6 NLCS: 7 1/3 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 88 pitches.

Not while playing a hungover Detroit team today.

Incomplete pass, Miami wins.
-
And I have no idea what they're going to do. I'm not sure the guy fully had it but they also ruled it a catch and I don't see enough to overturn it. If they called it incomplete I'm not sure they overturn it either.

Stupid Angels had 2 out in the 8th inning but the 2nd baseman couldn’t catch a pop in just on the grass in the outfield which let the WS tie the game. Next batter singled to give the Sox the lead.
-
And yet still the best QB from that draft class. He's also the only one of the first round QBs who is still with the team that drafted him.
-
If the White Sox go: 6-0 they'll end up with the 6th worst winning percentage ever 5-1 it's the 5th worst 4-2 or 3-3 it's the 2nd worst 2-4 or worse it's the worst winning percentage ever

The difference between Ohtani and most DH’s is that they tend to provide negative value with their legs because they’re big lumbering oafs. Assuming I’m looking at the right thing, Ohtani is second in both Fangraphs and B-R in baserunning value in the majors this year. So while he’s not playing the field, he provides value with his legs.
-
They play Wed this week. But they still go Thu, Sun, Wed, Sat, Tue.
-
I don't care about the Sox much either now that Hawk is gone. I think I figure as long as you're going to be ridiculously bad, you might as well be historically bad and set records. I don't think I'd be following any less if it was any other team going for the record instead.

White Sox were down 2-0 going into the ninth and hit a 2-out 2-strike home run to tie it. The Padres had 1st and 2nd no out and 1st and 3rd with 1 out in the bottom half but didn't score. Unfortunately, the White Sox didn't score in the 10th and it took the Padres 2 pitches to walk it off. 36-118. Also, Ohtani is at 52-52 now.

So we have the new expanded Club World Cup every four years that was supposed to replace the old yearly version. Apparently the old version is sticking around under a different name. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_FIFA_Intercontinental_Cup I hope the players strike happens because this is just getting stupid.
-
He got it. He’s 5-5, 2 2B, 2 HR, 2 SB and 7 RBI today. Unreal.
-
49-51 now. He’s going to get another AB today too.
-
9 games left. Need to go 6-3 to avoid the most losses in a season and 3-6 to avoid the worst winning percentage ever.
-
They need the Tigers to fall out of the race by the last series. Otherwise, that will be tough to do with SD and Det still on the schedule.

2024 White Sox: 36-116 1906 Cubs: 116-36

Matt Adams signing a 1 day contract to retire as a Cardinal has to be one of the weirdest instances of that in sports. 4 full seasons with St Louis plus 3 partial seasons and only 513 games played.

How so? By declining it, they picked up the 1st down on the next play which forced Atl to burn their 1st timeout before the 1st down play. Had they run it 3 times, Atl gets the ball back with just under a minute left. If they accept it, Atl wouldn't have had to use a timeout until after the 1st down play and could have gotten the ball back with 90-100 seconds left. Unless I'm missing something. The other thing was they probably should have just run the ball on 3rd down and gone for it on 4th. If you convert, game is over. If you don't, Atl gets the ball under a minute left needing 50 yards for a FG attempt. Teams tend to get more conservative once they're in FG range down 3 so it's unlikely you give up a TD there. So worst case scenario, you likely go to OT.
