You pivoted from baseball to football. Two different animals. Baseball is much safer and healthier.

fuck the owners who raise ticket prices, start all the games for tv way too late, and move their teams around (or threaten to) while looking for as much public money as possible for them to cart off.

I think we can all agree on that. Fuck pro sports in general, but in the meantime... let's go Sox.
Heading to NYC later today for a meeting tomorrow AM, only gonna be in the city like 18 hours but considering tomorrow is opening day I'm wearing my Red Sox tie. I hope somebody doesn't like it

Any predictions for the sox this year? can they win 100 games? 108 was a beastly total, I don't think I'd bet on it.

Thanks to Farhan Zaidi, the Giants will now be the A's west. Maybe they'll be scrappy and make a run every year or two- just to lose in the wildcard or divisional series- but forget about championships. I know I should give it more time, but I'm not liking this moneyball shit so far.

Farhan Zaidi seems a little geography-challenged
Edit: nope, I am though

You and me, who have both hated the Yankees since our youth, in the soulless new stadium in the Bronx would be a hoot.
We will make it happen.
Good luck in money making Manhattan

yes! finally!
iceman - 95 is a bit too safe for a wager.
i think the yanks will top 100 and break the home run record they set. lookout!j'ai des grands instants de lucididididididididi

Found a screaming deal on flights so I’m headed to Seattle to watch the Sox. Going to miss today’s game since it’s a day game but will see Friday and Saturday. Stoked!

Pete Alonso made the show for the Mets. My son-in-law played with him in the minors the last couple of years. Pete has monster power and should have a run for rookie of the year. Jacob deGrom said Pete had the most power he had ever seen.
