It's no one's fault. It's just hard to watch on TV now because of our short attention spans and too many other options that cater to them. Everyone still enjoys actually going to games. If networks aren't getting the ratings they want, who gives a shit?

Maybe I'm nostalgic, but I kind of miss watching Malcolm Jenkins and Roman Harper perform their "synchronized blown coverage to lose a playoff game with 9 seconds on the clock" drill.

Strawberry is good as long as there aren't any goddam frozen hard strawberries in there.

It's somewhat excusable at Caps games, since there is no Baltimore hockey team so there will be fans of the Orioles and the Caps, but I don't get what the fuck those are clowns doing at Nationals games?

"I'm going to go to a Washington vs Arizona game in Washington DC and yell 'O' during the national anthem because O is short for Oriole and that's the Baltimore baseball team omglol!"

Indians top 5 salaries:
1 Nick Swisher ($15m)
2 Michael Bourn ($13.5m)
3 Asdrubal Cabrera (traded, $10m)
4 Justin Masterson (traded, $9.7m)
5 David Murphy ($5.5m)

I don't get the hatred for Charles Brown. He sucked early in his career, but in week 14, he held Greg Hardy (15 sacks last year) to 1 tackle and 0 sacks. In week 15 he gives up 2 sacks to Robert Quinn (19 sacks) and he loses his job. Then the next week, Armstead gives up 3 sacks to the same Greg Hardy that Brown…

Sorry but this isn't a problem, nor is it new. 20 years ago most teams didn't sell out. Now you can't get a ticket for less than $100 for most games. If the experience sucked so much you'd think people would catch on and not spend the money.

Bourbon Street is the dirty guest room that you give to your friend you don't really like. It's covered in puke and piss and someone probably nailed there last night but they'll be too drunk to notice. And if you keep them quarantined there they won't break anything in the nice part of the house.

Well its not that Brad Johnson was a bad quarterback, he was just nowhere near as good as Jeff George.

Dunn apparently threw a curveball and slider to his final batter, Rougned Odor. He got 'em with old reliable, though.

Hey, at least you probably have a sweet govt contractor salary that would make you a king in any other city but will afford you an apartment above a bowling alley and beneath another bowling alley in northern VA.

Thank God

My hatred of the Yankees had been on the backburner for a decade or so, but these farewell tours are bullshit. Congrats Mariano and Jeets, you were drafted by the only team that could afford to keep you your entire career. And if you were drafted by us, the Yankees would have signed you in your prime anyway, but no…

??? Because is completely reasonable for a league to care what its players put in their bodies, and completely unreasonable to expect it to establish discipline standards for every possible off the field offense?

Everything about bountygate was fucked up. Most shocking to me was how the NFL can suspend a coach for whatever the hell it wants with absolutely no chance of rebuttal.

Completely different, there are set and agreed upon standards for league punishment for drugs.

New Orleans

What's stopping it is the next CBA negotiations. The tide turned on Goodell during bountygate, when everyone realized how fucked up the NFLs discipline system is. He has to tread lightly now and hope the NFLPA is too stupid/greedy to demand a change in the next negotiations. (And they probably are). They know Rice…

The concept of the competitive balance lottery is absurd to begin with. The only problem with not having enough money is not being able to sign your own free agents. You already get compensatory picks for that (and now the team that signs the player loses a pick, which makes signing someone else's player less…
