One thing I think other sports could learn from Soccer is giving the referees the ability to extend the game a little bit if it’s a good one. Let them try one more pass in football, or get their best hitter up for one more AB.

played sports for twenty years, coached them for another twenty. there is sadness and relief. sadness when you lose and relief when you win. joy does not exist. but if joy was a thing i would have felt that the moment trent hit that penalty.

This Georgia boy sure had a blast at the Baseball Project show tonight. Got to hear Mike Mills sing about Dale Murphy and Steve Wynn on Harvey Haddix. Linda Pitmon always looks like she’s having more fun than anyone in the room.

It'll be interesting to see how this story plays out over the next couple weeks. Playing outlaw ball in 1924 was just about unforgivable in the eyes of Organized White Baseball, but Horan was a member of the New York Yankees by the end of July. Washington Times, July 2, 1924

been talking about the re-hiring of tony la russa by the white sox as maybe worst self-inflicted injury by a team in a long time if not ever, and while doing so got mad that no one will ever write a funnier joke than the punch line that is the last line of his wikipedia page's "legal issues" section

Another recent Golfshrine pickup included a value-box version of "ESPN Golf Presents: Lower Your Score With Tom Kite" for Windows. Golfshrine has a copy of the JP 3DO version, so I'm able to compare the video quality side by side. The PC version is chunkier, but also comes on only one disc (not 3).
