    Bravos sign Profar.

    Then there are some very inaccurate articles floating around. Still holds true. Who knows when we offered. Could have been weeks ago and the agent drew it out.

    Bravos sign Profar.

    I don't know if us waiting until now was AAs choice or not. Boras is notorious for having his clients try to wait out the market. It wouldn't shock me if he had an offer from the Braves in early December.

    Andruw Jones HOF voting currently at 73.8% he needs 75%

    Yeah, I don't think Bagwell has ever been publicly tied to PEDs. Only baseless speculation everyone playing at that time is subject to.

    Andruw Jones HOF voting currently at 73.8% he needs 75%

    It took Bagwell 7 tries. Career WAR over 80. Edgar Martinez took 4 years. Had a career WAR of 1 less than Sabathia. The writers usually get no doubters right but theyre inconsistent with the WAR in the 60s.

    Andruw Jones HOF voting currently at 73.8% he needs 75%

    Don't get me wrong, I think Sabathia deserves to be in the hall and have no problem with him being a first ballot. I just have far less faith in the voters not to overlook a guy who toiled away in a small market. They've repeatedly proven they'll do just that.

    Andruw Jones HOF voting currently at 73.8% he needs 75%

    100%. Sabathia getting in first ballot had everything to do with his time with the Yankees. If he stays in Cleveland his whole career, he'd take a decade to make it in if at all.

    The Dodgers doing what they're doing make me less interested in baseball. I'd bet others feel the same way.

    The Tiktok law was a bluff. I doubt anyone expected it to reach this point. It was an attempt to get TikTok to sell. I don't see Bytedance refusing to sell as proof they're up to something nefarious. I think they're just calling the US's bluff. So far they seem to be right. Biden has said he...

    Legal/scotus thread

    The court allowed the government to ban an entire medium of speech and only applied intermediate scrutiny. It would be like the government banning the use of printing presses or megaphones and only applying intermediate scrutiny. The court reasoned the restriction wasn't content based because...

    Legal/scotus thread

    I just read the SCOTUS decision on TikTok, it's absolutely pathetic and they know it. In the first section they essentially strip the decision of any precedential value by insisting that this decision "must be understood to be narrowly focused". This is a dead giveaway that the court knows its...

    Yeah, it just goes to show he's not the offensive genius he was heralded to be. Falcons were totally right to move on from him.

    Just make college like the pros. You sign a contract with a team, you get paid, NIL is handled via agents, unions, agreements, etc. There's no transfer portal, just free agency if you sign a contract for less than three years, etc. College is only masquerading as amateur at this point. Stop...

    This. Do away with the NIL nonsense and just have players sign contracts. Currently the system is chaotic and incredibly shady.

    I have no problem with players getting paid but since they are I think they should have to sign contracts like the pros do. No more transfer portal shopping around every year. You sign for 3 years and can't play for any other school for that time.

    I don't see how the Falcons can justify giving Morris another year. He's not a first time head coach figuring out the job. This is his third stint as a HC if you count his year as interim. Everyone was making excuses for his awful HC record when he was hired and it turns out the excuses...
