Are you going to tell him he's a liar to his face? Because I'm not.

I knew he could steal, but he could also hit. He's ranked 293rd in carer batting average. Not bad.

This is actually not such a great deal. If you go to the wink website, you can get bulbs for $15/ea, and if you spend $100 you get a free hub. So if your room has more than two lights (most rooms), it's silly to get this deal.

Two Cardinal sins? Lord have mercy.

Or... the leagues could just keep playing as normal. I hate this proposal as much as the next guy, but let's not forget that plenty of players take time off for the African Cup of Nations, and club football proceeds as normal. There will just be 736 players that will be at a different tournament.

Well, we could stop giving time-outs. If baseball is not timed, then how can you call time to be out?

I bet Goran Dragic is glad he forced that trade to Miami now, huh?

Not to be that guy that's a Euro-phile crazy person, but this is just another reason that a promotion and relegation system is great. Every city (and multiple in a city!) can start their own franchise and enter the lower league, hoping to promote up to the best league. Franchises won't move, because there's no need.

Here is a serious question about the legality of all this, and please take it with a grain of salt, because FIFA is insanely corrupt.

Until the NFL starts to guarantee contracts, I have no problem with this. The NFL and its teams are greedy and ruthless, and so should the players be if they want to get paid a wage that reflects the revenues generated by the league every year.

There's a difference between healthy, and healthy enough to get out there anyway with a high risk of additional or exacerbated injury. There is absolutely no reason for a player to get on the field if he doesn't feel 100% comfortable doing so.

Saints was valued at $351,380,00.

I think you're giving the Jets a lot of credit.

At least the Mets are still in first place in the "Awfully long and agonizing" contracts league.

Does anyone else think that it's time to get sports teams to issue public, audited financial statements? At this point, they are essentially a public good, like a utility or something. In each region, they have what amounts to a monopoly.

The American game will not be global until they play on the field is much higher. In order to increase the level of talent in the top leagues, it's important to grow a base of local talent. The one mechanism that prevents that from ever happening is the draft.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that he won a bronze medal at the 2012 Summer Olympics with the Russian national team.

What would my bias be, exactly? I feel like his resume speaks for itself, I was just pointing it out.
