  1. That Saudi league pretty much crumbled this week.
  2. The Minor League puff pieces are out of control. I understand why, but read with a skeptical eye.
  3. Because they can sell out the minor leaguers for leverage.
  4. Tangentially related, but with everything moving to streaming, I don't know how that is going to jive with gambling. On MLB.TV because it lags through my chromecast, I am typically 3-5 minutes behind.
  5. Stuff like this is what drives me nuts. The owners aren't the only one negotiating in bad faith here.
  6. That was mooostly updating the course, undoing the Rees Jones abominations/renovations.
  7. Maybe belongs in the general sports page, but golf twitter is ablaze with the Oakland Hills Clubhouse Fire. Anybody else witnessing it?
  8. Elaborating on earlier... It's takes like Joe Sheehan on twitter saying the owners are at fault because they could end the lockout at any time if they give in to the players' demands. No shit, sherlock. The players could do the same.
  9. I'm getting a bit perturbed with the twitter echo chamber shilling for the Union during this.
  10. Too lazy to bump Chaz's vaxxed and relaxed post but I'm there now.
  11. I will admit that music isn't my cup of tea.
  12. One could say that, but it isn't like draft money goes unspent. Revenue sharing (and tying draft picks to revenue sharing) does create some f'ed up incentives though.
  13. It's also less tanking for a pick... tanking for pool money is more like it.
  14. The real reason for drafts is to reign in costs. There's no cynicism about it. That's the straight up history of the draft and the reason it exists.
  15. So the Media Bias Chart has Rogan's podcast left of center. All over the damn map, but very low on the reliability scale.
  16. So many getting infected. Don't they recommend waiting a few months after infection to get boosted?
  17. I've probably moved to the center not the left. I've voted for Republicans as recently as down ballot 2016. I don't embrace a lot of the left wing ideology, but Trump's emergence and the loons in his wake have exposed a lot of the right wing ideology as fraudulent. I like to call out nonsense on all sides, since irrational polarization is at the core of our problems right now.
