I don’t think Boston would trade Sale for Darvish, unless they get prospects :/

Billy Beane Admits That Being An Ass Fan Is Hell

Good account, but misses the Jaguares - Atlas game (which played at the same time, not earlier as article suggests), with Jaguares goal forcing Morelia to win to save from relegation. BTW, Morelia would not get relegated on the “Pachuca-America 2-2, Morelia 1-0 (America in the playoffs, Pachuca out, Morelia…

The small local books face a very different player than a Las Vegas (or big offshore) sportsbook. Las Vegas books have many sharp bettors/syndicates that could drop $10,000+ bets and balance hundreds of bets from recreational players. So, they cannot shade too much their lines against the public, because the sharps…

Wow, you gave almost exactly the same answer I did; I should have checked in the grays before posting. To confirm your idea: Pairings were re-created, nothing strange discovered. Just the usual details: First round affected for late show.ups, a wrong result entered on round 4, affecting pairing of round 5 on lower…

Chess arbiter here. Pairing are NOT “randomly selected by a computer”. The swiss system has clear rules that exactly determines the pairing on each round, based on results, ratings and piece colors. The International chess federation (FIDE) tests programs to insure they give exactly the same pairings. Most programs…

Even worse, on July 31st, the exact same situation happened (2-2 on Toronto) and Showalter took the correct decision: Let Britton pitch on bottom 9th and 10th, and eventually let Ondrusek get the save on 12th.

Lets work out the numbers. If runner hold on 3rd, top 9th, 2 outs, bases loaded, 4 runs per team/game environment, Mets has a 13.7% win, according to WPA inquirer ( http://www.hardballtimes.com/wpa-inquirer/ ). Going for it and succeeding give Mets 51.8% win, failing gets 0% win. So, you need a 26.4% success rate to…

Famous Miguel Marin autogol in Mexico:

That is a good rule

It should be proper etiquette in sports to congratulate your opponent after a great play or game. Sadly, the opposite is common: A batter may get a HBP after 2 HRs, and a QB doing great could be targeted. Besides non physical “sports” (chess, billiards, bowling) only in boxing is common to hug and congratulate your…
