If 99% of the decision was for the money then the other 1% for climate/location reasons, possibly. Scottsdale, Arizona or Cleveland, Buffalo, or Pittsburgh? Definitely Arizona if it indeed was for the money.

Yes. Thanks JC. Looks like Miller was in better shape....or somehow kicked in another gear?

It WAS because of his Father. But not for the genetic reasons. His father had NFL connections and that's why we are able to have CM in the NFL. Obviously CM has the genetics, but there's been bigger, faster and stronger white RB's, that were not allowed to play RB in the NFL. If Christian's...

It looked to me like when he was coming out of the turn he knew he was getting too close to the line and tried to adjust and almost looks like he lost his balance/rhythm and it slowed him down trying to stay in his lane. The kid from LSU ran a good race, but I think Boling was closing...

D@&%. Boling DQ'd

Boling 3rd: 20.55? WTC? Race is under review?

Yes, JC was going through the SEC times yesterday and saw Dryer. Was going to mention Steiner as well. Someone please post the results from the SEC as soon as you can from Boling's 200m and Steiner's 60 and 200 as well. Thanks

I've been hearing about LA Angels Jo Adell for four years. Supposed to take over for Trout in Centerfield someday. So far he hasn't panned out. He hit .161 last year with a -1.3 WAR. Oh well he's only 21. At 21 Trout had led the league in Runs twice, SB's, WAR twice was hitting .323 was...

The Blue Jays haven't signed VG Jr. to long term contract just yet as far as I know. If they haven't, smart move on their part.

I understand the reasoning. However, it's a gamble either way. If he turns out to be a bust, he only hit .277 last year, the Padres have wasted a lot of money. If he turns into another Mike Trout then it's a bargain. Not too many Mike Trout's come along very often. Like once every 25-30...

I don't think 143 games over two seasons merits a $340 million contract. Especially when you compare him to the likes of Trout. Speaking of stolen bases, Trout's SB success rate was 91% or 9:1. In his first season he led the league in Runs, SB and OPS+ and WAR. He was ROY also and finished...

Boling also long jumped 8.07/26' 5 3/4. Also a PB. Placing fourth overall. It's seems the consensus here is that he scrap the long jump. Although I don't much about track and field, I would agree. Years ago, when my son was in Track and Field, he qualified for the Jr. Olympics Nationals in...

Hear! Hear! Freethinker. Thank you foreverfree. As well as what ramicackle said about the clowns that worship this guy. It's disgusting.

Speaking of ridiculous contracts for overrated players. Here's one: After just playing 143 games in two years, San Diego SS Fernando Tatis Jr. signed a 340 million dollar contract over 14 years. That's 24.2 million per season. He's just 22 years old. So by age 25 he'll have pocketed almost...

Cal Ripken's 2,632 straight games played will never be broken. Nolan Ryan's 5,714 strikeouts will never be broken. Chief Wilson's 36 triples in one season. Pete Rose's 4,256 career hits Babe Ruth's 177 runs scored in a single season (Modern Era). Billy Hamilton scored 198 in 1894. Didn't we...

24 year old Sam Burns leading the Genesis Open going in to the weekend at -12. With world number 1 Dustin Johnson in a T-2 at -7. Jordan Spieth right there again in the hunt. T-6 at -6. It's a little too cold to play where I'm at this weekend so I'll be tuning in to see if Burns can hang...

I read a lot about Cobb when I was younger. There's a story in one of the books I read that reported that Cobb could have hit more HR's if he wanted to to. A reporter challenged him on that and hit went out and hit three HR's in one game the next day. He said he didn't like to hit HR's. He...

Right Don. Ratings soared 19% from the previous year on Sunday during the airing of the tournament at Pebble Beach. No doubt it was because Spieth was in contention.

In 1909 Cobb had 9 HR's, 107 RBI, and hit. 377 to win The Triple Crown. Again, Ruth never did win it. Probably the accomplishment he never had. Another interesting stat. Ruth had 136 triples. Barry Bonds only had 77. Cobb 295.

I briefly read through all the posts. I have Cobb number one. I just liked the way he played the game. Not to mention all the records he set. BTW, Cobb won the Triple Crown. Has that been mentioned? Ruth never did.

Jordan Spieth who hasn't won since 2017 has been playing well over the last two tournaments. He's been in the the top five at both The Phoenix Open and last weeks AT&T at Pebble Beach. He had an opening round of 68 to put him into a tie for 12th in the the round of The Genesis Open in Los...

Been awhile since I've posted anything and I'm not happy about it at all. January was a tough month. A friend of mine passed away on January 5th from Cancer. He had the same kind of throat Cancer I had. We thought he had beat it but it appeared in other parts of his body and now he is gone...

Right. I have a long history of throwing white brothers under the bus on this site and I am obviously a part of the problem.

That's Heresy! Do you realize what you just posted? You just put the God that created all things second to your race! "You shall have no other Gods before me. Exodus 20:3 "You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on earth beneath or in the waters...
