Sounds like nothing but hate coming from you

All the liberals who are commenting against this guy for being honest . Political correctness is cowardice wrapped in a lie.

You think it’s that horrible to dislike Beyonce and marvel comic movies?  Wow.  You need a hobby.

Thoughts and prayers for the Polish Olympic Hockey Team. Spring training can be tricky.

Water polo probably wouldn’t.

Also apropos today:

“To the death?”

He is also prone to injury. Signing him to a long term deal would be fucking stupid.

Padres fans are pretty fucking excited this year.

You! You get the fuck out of here with your logic stuff! We here think Bryce Harper should get a huge contract because Scott Boras said so. Nevermind that he’s been a middling player since the end of 2015.

Agreed. I’m waiting to see if your differing opinion (compared to the Deadspin manta) will get out of the grays.

Average MLB salary $4,095,686 and the minimum salary is $535,000. All of which is guaranteed by whatever their MLB contract is. 

I mean we saw Machado sign for $300m. We saw Arrenado sign for $260m. We saw Corbin sign for $140m. We’re watching Harper get chased by 3-4 teams and after all our handwringing appears to be set to shatter $330m+.

It’s hard PR for the players. When you’re making, on average, $4.5 million a year, it’s hard to make the (correct) case that it’s the owners that are the really greedy ones.

I don’t see any upside to a strike. The sport is probably at it’s most vulnerable. Coming off a huge Red Sox WS and with the Yankees on the rise the flag ship teams are excelling. Machado just signed a $300 million dollar deal. Everything is great and teams are more diverse than ever.  Also, unlike in the past, the…

I still don’t understand this idea that the owners are trying to “implode free agency” which I assume would have to be some combined effort or “collusion”.

Collusion by owners? DAMN THEM TO HELL

This is taken out of context. I’m sure Brady mean’t he can “sense” a hit coming. Completely different from a discussion about chronic traumatic encephalopathy or CTE. Brady is not that tone deaf.

I HATE to be sticking up for Tom Brady, but the guys Johnson mentioned were a Fullback, a Linebacker, an Offensive Linemen, and a Corner Back, who’s job was to initiate contact. I think it is highly possible/probably that Tom Brady is better at sense a hit coming and avoiding it and that is not a slight on the players…

Oh wow Chris, I grew up in Norwalk and I used to go to these with my dad too! We used to go mostly for hardware also, but I fondly remember having a ton of those shareware floppys, I played the hell out of a copy of Heretic I got from there. Thanks for reminding me, I had a lot of fun going to them.
