The DH is an order of magnitude less gimmicky. Of course this would eventually become normal, but it’s just not a very good idea. It has all the hallmarks of a rule that will be endlessly tinkered with.
As a baseball fan, I must insist that the biggest problem with soccer is that there are tie games, and it’s one of the major reasons it has such a hard time catching on in America.
This rule is gimmicky, stupid, and won’t bring in any new fans, while annoying many actual fans. Like, I’m not going to stop watching baseball over this, but I will absolutely hate the shit out of it. The vast majority of games end after one or two extra innings and the once or two times each team plays a 17 inning…
That’s just terrible.
This is the least American thing I’ve ever heard
As a soccer fan as well....fucking ew. No ties or draws.
Why would they encourage pitchers to speed up when they can simply make drastic rule changes?
Do you know basketball? Do you know who Charles Oakley is in the history of basketball? It doesn’t make him look bad, it makes him look like Charles Oakley.
Weird, I watched the videos and it shows them asking him to leave then him swinging on people. I am pretty sure it makes him look bad.
So maybe they shouldn’t have asked him to leave. Maybe they shouldn’t have published that statement. Fine. He still got physical and slapped and punched a bunch of security guards just trying to do their jobs. I can’t believe we have to keep discussing this. You can’t just beat people up who irritate, bother, or…
The “if you don’t like that” call from the Kings home announcer is really fucking annoying. He did it on Boogie highlight this week as well.
What on earth are you blathering about?
Disagree, but let’s bring the counterpoint out of the greys.
-1000
also Andy Reid has not had a single losing season with the Chiefs since arriving a year after they went 2-14. they’ll take that every time.
I...I don’t really need to explain “small sample size bias” here, do I?
The Mark Walberg movie about this is going to be insufferable.
