After reading the quotes attributed to him, I am fairly convinced that Cleveland Police Patrolmen’s Association President Steve Loomis is actually a bot that tries to aggregate comments from Fox News Facebook posts into something resembling actual human speech.

Yeah, that’s pretty damn boss and would lend itself to some cool merch, which would probably spur some sales from non-Cleveland fans if done right. The Uni-Watch nerds had a contest a few years back that had some good concepts, too, although they all kind of left a little to be desired in some way or another to me: htt…

I feel like it could (if done right) also somehow end up being a favorite of millennial hipsters (is that a real demographic group?) that don’t have a team of their own but want to watch baseball or wear stuff that says “Indies” on it. But I’m old and out of touch so probably not, plus, rival fans would refer to them…

The Farts- now there’s a team we can all get behind!

“Trying to find the right balance” i.e. Hoping the commish gives up this fight or we can wait it out for a new commish.

Wow, this is like a retro ‘let’s remember some guys’.

John Cangelosi was probably one of my favorite crappy players, mostly because I got a pack of baseball cards with him in it on opening day in like 86 or 87 and he had a good game that day. Like, within a season or two, he was gone, but he was one of the first…

Sadly, no matter how ridiculous predictions for “what else can be ruined” over the next four months are, reality will probably be worse.

I still think C2 was the best Coke, and I’m glad to see Coke Zero die if only because I, personally, and with no evidence whatsoever, blame Coke Zero for C2 being killed off. Go to hell and die, Coke Zero, and take Coke Zero Sugar with you :|

“He knew where he was and why he was doing what he was doing and how to engage a crowd” Yeah- I mean, the fans seemed more receptive of his rendition than a lot of the truly horrible ones. I don’t think, aside from when it’s an actual professional singer, anyone expects perfect pitch from the 7th inning stretch, but…

It.... wasn’t that bad... ? I mean, if you look at all of the assrandom b-list celebs, simpletons and Ditkas that have done this stupid thing since Harry Caray passed, and I’d say it’s probably not even in the bottom 10.

Somebody’s paying a little too much attention to other people’s workout attire at the gym.

I don’t know - they had all of the talent that they’ve traded away to acquire these prospects on the team for a few seasons and didn’t do jack with it, so it’s hard to say that when these prospects mature the Sox will do better with them, even assuming they all pan out to be worthy of their rankings. I’m hopeful, but…

This is an accurate list.

Yep, definitely remember staying up late as a kid to watch the 83 Finals, which came on at like 11:30 here in Chicago, IIRC.

If they’re unemployed at the start of the season, maybe they can guest host a few episodes?

Honestly thought the mug shot was Fake Tiger Woods from Always Sunny when I saw it on my phone earlier. This doesn’t look quite as bad in that regard, but he still looks damn bad.

Looking at how high up those ‘cheap’ seats are (here and on Twitter), I can’t say I blame anyone for not paying triple digit prices for them. If the owner is frustrated by the lack of sales, maybe he should adjust the price to fall more in line with the (lack of) demand.

Pretty sure Miami Beckham United is just the ownership group’s name, not the team name. It’s atrocious as all hell regardless, but the team name (should the team ever exist) will likely be something else.

Yeah, again, he still took that initiative to expand to non-traditional markers and ran with it, so I think it makes sense that he get some credit for the markets that are done right (Nashville came thisclose to getting the Devils at one point so it seemed like it was a matter of time before they got a team), but it’s…

Didn’t Bettman inherit San Jose, Tampa, Dallas and Anaheim? Not that the larger point doesn’t stand (Bettman deserves some credit for ‘sticking with’ the existing push to expand to non-traditional markets when he took over, I guess), but some of the more successful franchises in non-traditional markets pre-date…
