    Potential new NFL rules

    Maybe their angle is to make the game "safer" so that injuries go down, and then use the fewer injuries as a lever to go to an 18th game. It is playing a looooong game, but who knows what goes on in these meetings.

    Non-Patriots Free Agency News 2024

    I think people got "tired" of Rivera. The team never got better, and he seemed really disconnected during the games and at press conferences. He took a lot of bullets for Snyder, but by the end it was time for him to go. Getting the new owners only accelerated the feeling that he should be...

    Non-Patriots Free Agency News 2024

    The vibe here about WAS is that most everyone feels pretty good about how they approached FA. The only kept one of their own (so far) and brought in a dozen new guys. Sweeping out the Snyder / Rivera stench all at once. For the first time in a long time there is some genuine excitement around...

    Savannah Bananas: baseball fun??

    That guy who hit the HR hit it about 400 feet. It hit off of the facing near the train tracks.

    Savannah Bananas: baseball fun??

    That may have been the waiting list. I believe they had a period of time to sign up for it, then drew names at random - they did cut off signups for it once it appeared there were very many more names than they could reasonably accommodate (I guess). I was not picked for one of the choices I...

    Savannah Bananas: baseball fun??

    Congrats to all who got tickets today! Their website is crash-tacular when tix go on sale so that it did not for this sale is good news. I am in the upper bowl, I am curious how the "act" will scale to being so far away from the action. Up to this game, I have only been to games in Savannah.

    That is interesting. I know they are really anti scalping, I wonder if this want of control is a by-product of that.

    Savannah Bananas: baseball fun??

    Good for you! I did the lottery for a game in Savannah and did not get in. Good luck once the time rolls around. Interesting on a pre-sale for season ticket holders - I had not heard that before. The MLB stadiums are going to be a challenge for them; scaling from 4,000 seat SAV to 10,000...

    Savannah Bananas: baseball fun??

    That is correct, but in Fenway, I'll bet they really go all out. Jesse Cole is coming home and some high-enders like Papi or Pedro might not be a crazy as it sounds. I am looking forward to the game.

    Nick Swisher (who is made for the Bananas) and John Cena make appearances. It will be interesting who they pull for the games in Boston this summer.

    That is interesting, I have not heard that - though I mostly listen to the radio on the way into work.

    Yes, because they did not interview those guys at all. To go back to them after the 6-8 other guys they interviewed either took jobs or stayed put would look incredibly desperate. Let's see who is on his staff, should be interesting.

    A meh hire as far as I can tell. I hope I'm wrong, and he is better than the 28-3 that everyone remembers him for. When you are the last dog at the bowl, there is not much left to pick from.
