Well, for the most part, he’s right. And it’s not just limited to baseball fans. Sports fans are- generally- very, very dumb. Professional sports owners are a succubus (succubi?) feeding off of fans’ stupidity.

I actually think it's a lost revenue opportunity for the theaters. People would get up and go get another soda or snack. Plus, with every passing year, I find myself less and less able to sit through a movie without having to pee. 

... accountability is what makes our league great.

Far better? That’s a bit of a stretch. I would say that during his peak, Pedro may have been the most dominant pitcher of all time, but it was a relatively short peak, and some of those years weren’t even full seasons.

WAR isn’t an end-all, but Clemens’ best season was 11.9 to Pedro’s 11.7. Then Clemens has seasons of…

That being said, Clemens is NOT the best pitcher of his era, roids or no roids.

It’s not Rivera’s fault that the writers are the way they are. He shouldn’t be criticized for the mistakes of the past.  He was a no-doubt candidate as a player, and by *every*singe*account* is an even better person and teammate than he was a relief pitcher. While I think the off-the-field stuff shouldn’t make or…

Not that anyone cares (including the HOF), but I used to go to Cooperstown every other year. It’s probably my favorite place in the US. I have not gone since 2013, and I won’t go until Bonds and Clemens are in. It’s just not worth going if they’re going to allow the writers to hypocritically hold players out for…

I’m sorry, but why do people continue to give this walking bottle of Clorox attention? It’s exactly what she craves, and why she got into the acting business in the first place. While it is frustrating that a visible, mainstream media organization (notice how I did not say “news network”?) gives her a stage to play…

I really hope this can be resolved without a work stoppage, but it may be necessary.

The problem with all the talk around the formation of AEW is the word “competition”. AEW is not going to be “competition” just because they have names, or money, or (eventually) a TV deal. They’re only going to become competition if they approach it as if they’re not trying to compete. Just do your own thing, build a…

Not only do player salaries not drive ticket prices, it’s the opposite if anything. The players get a bigger piece of the pie because the owners keep upping ticket prices and generating more revenue. Most (if not all) teams could pay their payrolls before selling a single ticket in reality.

This is the case in all sports and among all fans. Nearly all sports fans are pro-owner which makes *zero fucking sense*. Owners have fans hook, line and sinker. It all started once they began publicly releasing player salaries. Once that happened and fans saw what these players make “for playing a childrens’ game”,…

I’m not sure why people get so offended by Tammy. She’s clearly an actress. There is no way she actually believes any of the things she says. She just knows that a bunch of horny, old, white men watch these far-right wing channels, and knows she can make a good living as a traditionally-attractive, young, blonde woman…

The HOF is so, so watered down that it definitely needs to be revamped. I’ve long felt that the creation of a pyramid system would solve a lot of the historic and ongoing issue.

Ya know, the BBWAA is annoying. They’re holier than thou, they’re hypocrites, and they have an incredibly inflated sense of their own importance. But for the most part, they don’t induct undeserving players. Most of their mistakes relate to the players they *don’t* let in. But other than a few disagreements here or…

Statements like this are absurd. I watched nearly his entire career, and he simply was not an all-time great player or hitter. He is easily one of the 10 worst players in the HOF. There are so many players that now have to be reconsidered because of this. He wasn’t even the best player *ON THIS BALLOT*.  In fact, he…

At the risk of parsing a wrestling storyline too finely, this certainly appears to be part of the story, but it also feels like Rousey being legitimately upset.

Not only is the pitcher win somehow still a thing in 2018, but so is the error as a measure of defensive quality.  In the hysteria about Miguel Andujar not winning the ROY, a lot of the focus was on how incredibly terrible his defense is.  The common retort:  “Well, he only had 17 errors.”  I even saw someone cite the…

Exactly. Comparing the revenue split is not an apples to apples comparison. This is not a pay gap issue or a gender inequality issue in the slightest. You can’t pay the players with money that doesn’t exist unless you want the league to go bankrupt in a few years.

Uh... what?  It’s a shock that fans hadn’t done it sooner, as it absolutely deserves parody since it’s the lamest thing in baseball.
