And eventually, the owners will just replace them with robots. Do you want to watch robot basketball?

You know what’s going to happen when you raise wages though? A couple of unintended consequences:

UMMMM EXCUSE ME BUT SURELY THE EDUCATION THEY GAIN IN THE D-LEAGUE IS EXTREMELY VALUABLE

Talking up a sub .500 team by mentioning another sub .500 team’s win streak. This is sad kinja.

I would go just so I could pull my hand back and slick back my hair right when Trump went to shake it. I’d be a hero to all the other secret detainees in Guantanamo.

But are extra innings really the problem (particularly with non-baseball fans)? In a given season, about 10% of the games go into extra innings. Of those, the vast majority only need an extra inning or two to complete. I would argue that the non-baseball fan is going to think that baseball is long whether it goes 9…

“Oh great so I gotta start off extra innings with some dude clogging up the base path in front of my hitters? Not on your life dude.” Dusty Baker

They moved to Glendale. It was fairly popular when it was centrally located in Phoenix. Also Arizona is the biggest bandwagon fan state, unless your winning no one goes. The suns, dbacks and ASU know all about it.

I know it’s not a fun answer but he’s basically a replacement-level player. Not many teams want to give 1B/DH at-bats to someone who can’t OPS .800

Having grown up in Philly, I really don’t see why you need the stadium and the jail to be separate places.

He says revenue comes from podcasts. Podcasts generally make $15 to $20 per 1000 downloads (which is a very good number compared to other forms of media) He says “The Ringer NBA show is like 140,000, 150,000 listeners per show. Channel 33’s like 125,000 per show. Ringer NFL is like almost 100,000.” Let’s say they…

Jesus I’m so fucking tired of people making that “Zodiac Killer” noise about Senator Cruz. Have some fucking respect, assclown.

The best ad agency of all time, if nothing else than for producing this completely insane ad:

“Fox Sports says W+K will work with all aspects of their brand, with their first focus being the 2018 World Cup.”

Which, of course, is the only sport that doesn’t interrupt play for commercials. But I’m sure they’ll have some hot promos on the FS1 hot take shows nobody watches.

Mr. Gottlieb said Fox Sports doesn’t “really look at it as a competition” with other networks, but focuses more on “executing a vision.”

That’s code for; “I might not completely agree with him, but thank God he’s doing something about all these brown people.”

Amen.

They’ll confirm him. They’re pussies. Also, there are midterm elections in two years and there are democratic senators in red states like Montana, North Dakota, Indiana, Missouri, as well as swing states like Florida, Ohio, Virginia and West Virginia. They’re going to play ball. And the plan isn’t even going to work.…

Democrats can’t allow Trump to fill a Supreme Court vacancy during the last year of his presidency.

How dare people raise concerns about permanent brain damage from a sport?! You smart assholes with your lack of CTE don’t know anything about being a manly man! About uhh....uhhh.....what was I talking about? Oh yes, we need to make buffalo wings spicier people! It’s the pussification of America!
