Layne kiffin, steve sarkesian and clay helton's teams all have better won/loss records than the trojans.
You tell me what the problem is.

So basically the prediction that Soto would go to the Mets came to fruition. Good on him to use the bidding war to get that big contract. He's pretty great, but I think this will sour on the Mets down the line.

From what I read, the NYY were only a few million apart. I guess he didn't want to share the spotlight with Judge. That's still a staggering amount to play baseball.

So stoked Dave Parker finally got in. One of my favs growing up and I always remember that throw in the ASG. Anyone with the nickname "The Cobra" was a badass in any era of sports .

Glad that Richie Allen (call me Dick) finally got in. Swung a 42 oz stick. That's pretty bad ass, too.

I think he didn’t like it when they kept saying it’s still still judges team . Going to mi his at bats even when when he would strike Ike out it still an adventure

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Seems like some bitching about buying tickets vs. having a suite as well

Kind of a diva for a two-tool player

So glad he's not a dodger

Hilarious story by Gronk on his draft day interview with the Pats from Spittin Chiclets.

When Angel pitchers didn't have a pitch count and went more that 6 innings.

Merry Christmas Doyers fans and f*** the Padres

Teoscar is back!

One of my favorite baseball players of all time, ever since I got the "Nolan Ryan: Record Breaker" card in my first pack of baseball cards at age 6.

 

[kingsfan28]

How'd that happen?

How'd that happen?

Strength of schedule tiebreaker.
Essentially, this happened. Sooo they clinched

Any further down the tiebreaker rules and they have the coaches dueling at dawn.

pretty crazy the Rams have clinched the division with a week to spare considering they started the season 1-4.

A tale of two seasons!

They were hella banged up to start the year, had a TON of rookies, and have great coaching. The future looks bright, I just wonder how many years Stafford has left

It's a good time to be a Los Angeles sports fan, that is for certain.

NFL playoffs look like they are going to be awesome, the NFC in particular is wide open.

KC vs Bills in the AFC Championship to decide the Superbowl.

I don't think the Rams are going to last long. I can't imagine the Redskins being a favorable match up

The one troublesome thing about a WA matchup for the Rams is the very mobile/running QB. That's a killer to this year's Ram team. But beyond that, WA has a lot of holes -- including a bad defense. Philly is the worst matchup for the Rams. I agree with Herby -- NFL playoffs will be wide open (both sides) this year. Gonna come down to matchups and maybe a bit of luck for the two teams that come out of it and get into the SB.

One of these year's, you got to figure that the Harb/Lamar combo will find a way to NOT choke in the playoffs, right?.....right? With Henry, this may be the year if he stays healthy throughout the postseason -- handing off the ball to him 25+ times on a cold, rainy/snowy outside game rather than having Lamar try to run and pass his way to a victory in those bad winter conditions.

One thing I have noticed about this year's Rams is they raise their level of play depending on the level of the opponent.
I am guessing most of the starters will rest against the Ospreys and hopefully they come out fighting against the Redskins

They're my darkhorse to knock off KC though, especially if they get the weather.

Philly is an absolute nightmare for the Rams especially.
