I wonder if the this includes the third-round compensation picks teams get when their minority coordinators become HC.

re: I think the pitch clock saved MLB

Posted by Black n Gold on 3/25/26 at 8:54 am to FLTech

Small sample size, but I feel my house is a pretty good representation of the effect of the pitch clock. Two sons, 18 and 10. Both sports kids. When my oldest was 10 he couldn't watch more than two innings because it was so slow. shite, neither could I. Would end up finding something different to watch together. My youngest and I will watch at least one full game each week now.

I'd take Simpson over Mandoza, assuming I was picking in the 10-20 range. Not one long-term NFL starter in this bunch.

re: The targeting rule is updated, no more first-half suspension in the next game.

The ejection/suspension aspect is BS

The bar for ejections should be incredibly high. In this case perhaps multiple targeting calls in a single game.

Apparently the new trend is for law enforcement agencies, usually Sheriff's Offices, to try to be cool on social media.

They also love posting their thirst trap deputies so they get admiration from a bunch of desperate divorced 40 and 50 yr old women.

Easiest vote in history. Sure, give me a half a billion to have another couple teams floating out there.

I would be interested to know how many teams NBA owners think is 'too many'. I bet some would vote to allow upwards of 40.
