this is an unfortunate and completely inaccurate stereotype. tennis history is littered with great Aussie players who were (and are) also consummate gentlemen:

i mean that there were several circumstances when Betances was brought in. and the fact that they decided he was disposable enough to bring Chapman in. these things just don’t say ‘true closer’ to me.

because as Rose’s lawyer you might as well ask the question and see if Doe’s lawyers object to it. I suppose they could have objected on the basis of ‘she’s not an expert,’ and frankly i don’t know why they didn’t - or if they didn’t.

is it possible that the use of Miller in innings before the 9th is because of the way he was used on the Yankees? he wasn’t really used as the closer there either even though he’d proven himself as the best arm.

haha ‘history’s bitch.’ i know Sox fans enjoyed the hell out of ‘04 (i lived in Mass when it happened), but that’s a bit excessive no?

christ, i had no idea he was that tall. interesting!

isn’t her take part of a larger issue in the men’s game though?

there are some great players on the horizon for sure, i’d include Dominic Thiem as my favorite to watch.

yes. less than $10k for a Daytona is a great price, even ‘lightly used.’ many of the used ones would go for far more than that.

this is lovely

of course billionaires looking for handouts from taxpayers to increase their bottom lines is a terrible idea. however, it is disingenuous with respect to this specific case to pretend that what Michelle Rhee did by closing schools and laying off teachers had anything at all to do with the stadium financing deal.

WHERE IS MR BASEBALL

couldn’t the fact that someone has chosen to conceal their true identity also inform study of their art?

this is a good idea

better, in fact

i feel your pain. Yankee fan who lived in Mass when the Sox came back from 3-0 in ‘03.

i hope you’re not including Popovich as one of your ‘white folks who need to have their opinions heard.’ this is a guy who barely gives interviews, often doesn’t answer direct questions, and certainly keeps non-basketball conversations to a public minimum.

i’m sorry but this is such bullshit. why is it that Ortiz, who has given the same fucking excuses for his steroid use as EVERYONE ELSE, is allowed protection from ANY criticism?

definitely like the potential for Pouille, but i SO prefer to watch Thiem play. if he can get his head together i think he’ll be someone to watch for a long time as well.
