This is the elephant in the room that it seems like basically everyone else here is ignoring. Implementing this rule in the MLB would be terrible. This isn’t the MLB, though. It’s a preseason tournament during which it’s imperative for pitchers to limit their pitch counts.

As a Knicks fan I am very interested in getting a good pick in what seems to be a strong draft, and I would like to encourage Rose to jack up as many threes as he can. Playoffs aren’t the goal here...

The top comment on the reddit discussion thread for the movie noted that Chris escaped the basement by literally picking cotton. If that’s intentional, and I’m inclined to believe it is...brilliant.

Both Davis and cousins are accurate from outside, you won’t beat them by clogging the paint. This isn’t a 76ers situation because boogie and brow are the most versatile big men in the league. Embiid is versatile enough to share the floor with any other bigs, but okafor and Noel are not. I like this trade for both…

I am willing to defend this trade and frankly I think the only reason people are bad mouthing it is “lol kings.”

So how about a rule change that incentivizes managers to not use so many damn pitchers? If you burned through all your pitchers because you didn’t account for a 15-inning game, that’s your own damn fault.

The drive from Nassau coliseum to Barclays can get close to an hour with traffic. When you factor in that many isles fans live farther out than that, it’s asking a lot for them to come all the way into brooklyn to see a lousy hockey team.

Bringing in chapman wasn’t the stupid decision. It was pulling arrieta because he gave up a walk. The cubs had a five-run cushion, they should have at least let him pitch into real trouble before yanking him.

The clear solution is to make PI like how face mask used to be - 15 yards for unintentional PI, and spot foul for intentional PI. Of course, you’d have the same problem as with face mask, because judgement calls are always going to create problems.

It’s not just that. The CFB stop-the-clock-after-first-down rule exists for the same reason the NBA has that bizarre “you get to advance the ball halfway across the court after a timeout” rule. In both cases, it’s possible for losing teams to pull of comebacks that would otherwise be impossible. And cool comebacks =…

Amazingly, you can make the case it’s not even the prettiest minor league stadium in New York. I present to you Richmond County Bank Ballpark:

1) He did not specifically call Severino’s first HBP a beanball.

I remember this play. It’s one of the many reasons why Leon Washington is an all-time Jets fan favorite.

This is the most ridiculous part of this whole rule change. The obvious answer is right there but no one wants to see it because nixing kickoffs would force the NFL and fans to admit that the most exciting play we have is actually too dangerous to exist.

This same argument was used back when kickoffs were first moved up, and I don’t buy it. We didn’t see a rise in “mortar kicks” then, and we won’t see it now.

I am the author of this post. I can tell you that Shezoy Bleary made it through to our final round of cuts. He was very close to making it in.

It was accurate, except for the fact that Elliot is constantly traveling back and forth between Midtown and Coney Island, multiple times per day. I hope he downloaded some good podcasts for those long-ass train rides...

They can do whatever they want, and we can call them out for being assholes whenever we want. America is great!

Is that Hellmuth or Matusow? He’s doing the Hellmuth hand thing, but he looks like Matusow. Anyways, I agree, very weird. You would think Deadspin would jump at the opportunity to use this picture:

When you went, how full was the stadium? In my experience, the Barclays has mostly filled up for the games I’ve been to. Those fans might not be “true Nets fans,” but they’re at the game, right?
