    Sports Cards Mania

    So, my unpopular opinion, I really don't mind Onyx stuff in the unlicensed third party realm. This set looks rough - the cuts were off, the collation sucked (though honestly collation for Topps and Panini has kinda gone in the shitter too - just watch a handful of breaks and track the same...

    Roasted GOAT

    I think the Post is just guessing off of Comedy Central's roasts and people who will be at Netflix is a Joke Fest. To your point, most major comedians will be in the area for this and all you can really rule is are people who otherwise have gigs that night. I think Burr is a safeish guess, and...

    Roasted GOAT

    It's hard to tell as Netflix Roasts have been noticeably different than the Comedy Central ones we're used to - or at least the Jonas Brothers one was. But that might have been unique, this one has Jeff Ross running it who was hugely responsible for the Comedy Central experience and has pretty...

    Three day out check-in

    I voted best available QB. I am much less "gung ho" on it than a month ago - there is a trade value that is "worth it" but I don't think any team will pay that ransom (like the rumored 11/23/1st from Minnesota struck me as too low for this scenario), and if no team does, I'd much prefer taking...

    Roasted GOAT

    My GF and I are going out to California to see this live. I mean, not specifically to see this - Netflix is a Joke Fest is happening and she wants to see a lot out there, but we're also going to this. Should be fun.

    Red Sox, Ceddanne Rafaela agree to contract extension

    Also, I'll be honest, given what FA deals for CFs are, he doesn't have to do that much for it to not hurt the team. For 10M in CF you're probably getting a great glove with a deeply inconsistent bat, or a decent bat who is passable in CF. I know we'd have CR for six years at x+arbitration...

    Red Sox, Ceddanne Rafaela agree to contract extension

    I think the argument is reasonable, though I do think terms are everything. My mind goes to a few different comps, and to me they often lost their highest value edge in their late-20s or early-30s - the JBJ, Javy Baez types. If they get a deal that locks in those tail end years at not a huge...

    Feats of Mookie - 2024 Angst & Awe

    Do we need another topic, not even in the Red Sox forum, where people re-litigate the Mookie Betts trade? I'm just gonna block it for my own sanity but hasn't this been beaten to death?

    Bronny declares for NBA draft

    Probably right. It might depend on the terms of the contract, I could see some owners scoffing at a max for instance but I still think most would hope Lebron still has some juice left and, if not, take the attendance/merch gains anyway. Regardless, I think Bronny is the most valuable 12th man...

    Bronny declares for NBA draft

    As insane as it is, a single year of production from Lebron is going to be worth more than probably - what - 80% of the players drafted? This is going to be a fascinating storyline and I think he goes way, way higher than he should just for that reason. There's plenty of mid-franchises or those...

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    Here's the thing though, it's insanely easy to make this good. If you as the team think something is important enough to go retrieve for the player and would have notable market value (which the Ohtani ball absolutely would, I think Heritage might be pumping it up - but the Angels Auction site...

    March/April: Red Sox discussion, observations and trend tracking...AKA It's not all about the Benjamins

    The Rafaela Triple was such a fun clip. One of my favorite things about baseball is when everyone on the field knows what's going to happen, except the one guy running the bases who feels very differently and turns it into something else. All three clips really from the MILB/AAAA thread: three...
