It’s on youtube. Just enter in key words “Schilling Sosa Berry Berry Good.” It’s a 31-second clip.

Ugh. That’s no good. Wish I still had El Rey on my cable network.

What’s the old Yogi Berra quote? “90% of the game is half mental.” Something like that.

“Historically rectangular.” Cracking me up.

Netflix only has the first two seasons on there. Do you know where I can watch any of the other seasons?

Your Bubba McDowell riff has me cracking up. I totally feel the same way.

His own teammate, Barry Word, may have had shoulder pads as big or bigger!

This simply confirms how far ahead of my time I was, playing football back in high school in the ’90s. As a receiver, I wore tiny kicker shoulder pads and actually removed my knee pads altogether, in an effort to streamline and somehow will myself to be faster.

“He never has entertaining fights...”

Yeah, young B-hop you can at least make an argument for.

Young Floyd was actually quite an entertaining fighter, and he was more aggressive offensively before he moved up several weight classes. Go watch his fight against DeMarcus “Chop Chop” Corley. That’s representative of earlier period Mayweather, before he became far more conservative with his punch output.

Bernard Hopkins is a first-ballot HoF boxer, and even diehard boxing fans understand his right cross-headbutt-clinch technique was terrible to watch.

Eh. He was named to the All-Rookie Team in ’97, and led the NFL among rookies as a first-year receiver.

Repentance?

Sleeping Giants is an organization along similar lines, which aims to “persuade companies to remove ads from news outlets that promote bigotry, sexism, and racism.” They’ve been pretty effective. I think it’s a smart, creative, effective means of combating some of this stuff.

“...spend that time making what he did that was legal, illegal.”

Bring back Neil Lomax and Roy Green.

Co-sign on this. That’s the best-case scenario, realistically. We just need to hang on 2 more years and vote him out. Then let the criminal charges fly and hopefully something sticks to Trump.

Mayweather knows there’s not enough money in it, so it’s not happening. Khabib isn’t yet (and likely will never be) a crossover star that Conor is/was. And I’m guessing Khabib doesn’t have any interest in pursuing a boxing match at this point in his career.

From a technique standpoint, yeah, shitty punch. But you have to factor in that the guy had to use the element of surprise, had to throw the shot at a dead run, and in a highly trafficked public space without Richard getting hip to it. It wasn’t like he could set up shop, line his feet up, and throw a textbook cross
