What is the logic behind Allen NOT being a former player?

I just think the same conversation, over and over, would get old. If there were true arguments about the play being disputed, then I’d be entranced by the varying degrees of anger and the interpretations of the two parties. But, I suspect the only variable in these discussions is the flavor words attached to the…

If I believed there were even a few rational discussions, I’d be right with you. My hunch is that they are all the same script with different actors.

What is “selfish” in baseball? This isn’t basketball where a player can dominate the ball at the expense of his teammates, or football where a quarterback can call his own number to build up his stats or runningback half asses it on blocking assignments. In baseball, taking care of your job is how you win baseball…

I don’t think they had any idea it would be national news. It’s not like it was Giannis Antentekoumpo who is on billboards and screams “professional basketball player” just looking at him. Sterling Brown is tall, for a normal human, but he’s not a star and there are plenty of guys who look like him in any city. They…

Now, I’m imagining him as a western pioneer who is insistent on keeping his team’s name due to stick it to all the native tribes he skirmished with.

Yeah, it’s not getting out of the path, when you step toward the on coming runner. Expecting the runner to gentlemanly veer from the baseline is naive on the part of the catcher.

Maybe now Trump can finally fill the vacant Communications Director post.

Like they have with Steven Adams?

They probably went from the Greek translation instead of the original Hebrew.

I’m not a DH fan, but your hypothesis is actually reversed. Without the DH, you’re limiting Ohtani to (at best) three at bats per week.

And they just selected his clone with the first pick overall.

Mayfield is the best example of a bulletin-board athlete in the draft—he showed up to every game in a custom made t-shirt highlighting whatever slight was motivating him for that game. Being the number one pick may be the biggest adversity he will have to overcome.

It’s just their competitive nature. They don’t get to that point by being able to accept moral victories. Rosen believed he was the best player in the draft and he was beaten by nine other guys. In his eyes, he was a loser when Mayfield’s name was called.

They’re invoking the NRA? How about realizing the only way to stop a bad guy from kneeling is a good guy kneeling..

I mean, that’s the image the song has given me since it came out in the late 90's.

The Twins’ manager is Paul Molitor.

Are the other QBs in the draft Boomers? GenX? I’d think the demographic is pretty well established.

The reviewing umpire should have to put in a token into the replay machine and if he hasn’t finished in two minutes, he has to put his pants back on and stick with the original call.

How did Murray get three free throws? Was he wearing James Harden’s shoes?
