Posted by Bench McElroy on 4/26/24 at 11:21 am
[quote]1. Los Angeles Dodgers
2. Tampa Bay Rays
3. Atlanta Braves
Alex Anthopoulos had always been, as one executive put it, “very aggressive” in his willingness to deal. When he took over the Braves heading in 2018, he married that quality with wisdom gleaned from his previous stops.

[quote]I believe there’s been a number of studies that have shown sports stadiums in general are not the economy boom that they are hyped up to be.

Yeah, a baseball stadium basically has the same economic impact on a city as a mid-sized department store. And that's a sport with 81 home ...

The Yankees were outscored by like 30 runs in the 2001 World Series. They were lucky as hell to even get into a seventh game to begin with due to the complete incompetence of Bob Brenly and Byung-Hyun Kim....

re: John Shoop, a coach kept getting paid mils because he was "a part of the club"
Posted by Bench McElroy on 4/19/24 at 2:01 pm
Watson Brown was a head coach for 30 seasons at six different programs and only had seven winning seasons over his coaching career. How the hell did a coach so mediocre last so long? I would say Brown's the best example of a coach who kept getting paid because he was "a part of the club'. ...

Let’s start with the rushing, since that’s clearly what drives this comp for most — to put it simply, we ...

Currently? It has to be Anthony Edwards. There are people saying that he should make first team All-NBA over Luka which is absurd. Also, they're acting like he carried the Wolves to 56 wins this season which is far from the case. The Wolves won that many games because they have the best defense in t...

Eh, they’ve played the White Sox five times and an Astros team with a decimated rotation. And they’ve lost the other three series they’ve played this year. If there’s any team whose fast start is not likely to last, it’s the Royals....
