One of the unfortunate hallmarks of Brad Stevens-led teams (since his NBA coaching tenure began) is their seeming inability to get back up for the third quarter after sitting around for a few minutes during halftime. It's so consistent that one has to wonder if the problem is what happens during...

At least Brasier has taken the time to improve as a pitcher after this incident. Was literally the least he could do.

Greg is only entertaining when he gets fired up about something, which only happens when it offends his white conservative pseudo-Christian sensibilities... and isn't a scantily-clad single mom stripping for a living or otherwise willing to show skin in the studio.

Given Greg HIll's penchant for having a clown car full of people on his shows when he was on WAAF so he could do the least amount of work possible, I can't imagine he's too thrilled that his struggling show is losing someone else who is more interesting than he is.

Because it makes Joe Sixpacks think that, but for different life choices/poor DNA/lack of drive/lack of actual skill, they could be out there playing the games the Right Way (TM) and gives them a voice to critique or lambaste those who can do what they can't, get paid millions to do it, and...

"A?"

This is excellent. Brava.

I seem to recall him moving a little bit: he turned around and watched it leave, then covered his head with his hands to further show up his pitcher/teammate before (I believe) bending slightly at the waist to show how defeated he felt, which I'm sure did a ton for team morale. The rest, as they...

He has a functioning pitching arm and isn't someone they want to protect for the future? I think he should be gone but whomever said have him pitch until his arm falls off... that's not the worst case scenario either. Squeeze him dry then send him packing once the playoffs start. If he pitches...

After Matt Barnes finally turned into a decent reliever, he ends up sticking around just long enough to not even be worth another PTBNL or cash. What a bummer. Brasier should be released if ownership has any inkling that he's going to continue to do shitty things online or that anyone on the...

I'm not saying there aren't schools that don't put a heavy emphasis on academics. Obviously some do - if you've ever read the BC Football thread, you'll know how much colleges can emphasize athletics to the detriment of the recruiting ability of their athletics programs (not that it's a bad...

That's why I had the book reference as well. And, respectfully, if you're a pro athlete with a degree from a school that doesn't put a lot of emphasis on academics, I'm not going to assume that the degree was earned the old-fashioned way. You can disagree with me on that but I think we're being...

RHF hits it on the head - a lot of these guys are, to put it nicely, not booksmart. Most of their lives have probably been spent in, on, or around baseball teams and organizations and it's likely what most of them slept, drank, and ate. Anyone who's ever seen Everybody Wants Some!! or Major...

Pillar walked back some of his ALM-ish stuff but it was not the most erudite retraction (probably why he's a baseball player and not a motivational speaker) and said "Black lives matter" in the process, and somewhat fell on his sword, so some of the backlash may be overblown but he certainly...

If the Red Sox truly believe JBJ is one of those "glue" guys and a locker room leader, I wouldn't be shocked if they hold onto him. They could flip another OF or a prospect in a deal to upgrade pitching if they are really considering all names and his doesn't have much value. In Chaim We Trust.

Yeah, those two asshats are from the Candice Owens side of the tracks, basically a pair of Uncle... Ruckuses who subscribe to this idea that life is great for blacks in this country as long as you act white and suck up to white authority and that all the ones who don't are really ruining things...

I suppose it would be expecting too much of Murray to realize that the reason recycling doesn't work, as he put it, is because too many people do what he does. The "Fuck everyone else and the planet, I NEED those extra 15 seconds I'll lose while sorting, else I won't have time to sit on my ass...

Is Wiggy an idiot from getting his bell rung too many times while playing or does it come naturally?

Maybe he's lost some of the passion he had after last year's SCF series? He is a great teammate but I'm sure it didn't escape him that the other skaters on the ice wearing the same uniform didn't exactly have his back throughout that series and didn't show up in a couple games, including...
