We most definitely do not have three or four 75-win teams... But that’s what would happen with no cap.

The reason MLB has a diverse set of champions is that luck plays a much more important role in any given game. If no cap existed in the NBA, you’d have three or four 75-win teams, and the rest with no shot every year.

Hmm. A misanthropic nihilist doesn’t have a good sense of humor? Who knew.

This. It is the only kitchen applicance I have ever recommended in my life.

That’s a lot of words to state, like, an opinion...

The reason that home teams do worse when jet-lagged is that that authors are assuming HFA is static, when is fact it has a lot to do with travel variables. So, most likely, jet-lagged home teams are just lacking a certain percentage of the normal HFA.

The worst part about this whole thing is how badly Williams was limping when he was walking in the beginning of the video.

“A construction worker says that he say Williams grabbing his tape measure, although Williams claims that he was picking it up to return it to him.”

In the history of Al Gore’s Info. Superhighway, this is the only long comment I have ever not wanted to end.

You’re trying too hard..

The problem with ice is that it can take down power lines -- which can then take a month or more to repair. Snow is almost never a big deal, despite what the media wants. Ice, on the other hand, can knock out electricity for a long, long time.

Each team should have three timeouts per half. The extra four are strictly for the $$$. I strongly suspect Stern has contacted teams in the past about not using enough timeouts in the final minute, and cost the league ad revenues. Silver doesn’t seem to be nearly as big a scumbag, so no idea about him.

The fouling, believe it or not, has calmed down a bit in the past five years or so, as teams have begun to realize just how meaningless regular season games are. That said, I think the obvious answer is to make any double bonus foul result is the fouled team getting to choose between two shots or one shot and the…

Anyone who says Stafford and Kershaw are not first cousins or closer is incest-blind.

I agree! It’s all about money, of course. More time outs, more commericial revenue. I refuse to watch any sport that allows 14 time outs per team.

In the end, I hated Berman as much as, of not more so, than the next guy. But in my 20s, I couldn’t get enough Bermanisms. R.I.P., Vincent “Ultimate” Brisbee.

Don’t mess with him. I think he’s in finance or something.

Where did I say my “experience makes truth”? What’s true is that you cannot predict loyalty by knowing only someone’s gender. This kind of insight should be obvious to anyone without an agenda, but unfortunately in many of the comments here, that is not the case.

Just like you are entitled to make every sports story about Trump?

The Cape or the Hamptons?
