    If You Want Big Air, Pull My Finger - Ski and Ride 23-24

    Yikes, glad it sounds like you're okay @graffam198, hopefully it's nothing but a good story in short order.

    2024 Red Sox spring training games

    I'm with you. ST is the time to get all the interview silliness and whatnot done and out of the system. Catch players while they're still in a more relaxed mindset, have a bit of fun. Much less of a fun of this stuff during the regular season (although even then it has its place), but let 'er...

    Brayan Bello signed to a 6 year, $55 million extension

    This is a great deal. Locks up the exact years you want in a pitcher, gives Bello plenty of security and should let him cash in on one big payday into his mid-to-late-30s that we don't need to have anything to do with if he's everything we hope he will be. Offseason suddenly seems a lot rosier...

    Let's Predict the 2024 Red Sox Season

    Well, I'd been holding off on posting my predictions because I'd been hoping against hope for a Monty signing, didn't figure I'd be well served to wait for Giolito to go down. Ah well. I'm going with 74 wins. As I've said elsewhere, I love the upside this team has but I think we're betting on...

    2024 Red Sox: Better, Worse, or About the Same?

    Worse, largely because our already razor thin margin for error on injuries has now evaporated without Giolito. I love potential upside of this team, and I'm rooting for good injury luck from here on our, but even "normal" amounts of injuries and a few players not hitting their upsides will...

    If You Want Big Air, Pull My Finger - Ski and Ride 23-24

    This probably isn't super helpful, but AMR in Breckenridge, CO is run by an NTN junkie. I don't run the setup myself (although I've bought AT stuff from them over the years), but my old man does and he's been loyal to their gear and recc's for years now. Dave is the owner, maybe you can get him...

    2024 Rockies: We've Tried Nothing And We're All Out of Ideas

    Oh and Thanks for sharing this. Pos seems to get the twin challenges of the built in environment and the absolutely rudderless leadership and roster construction. Ha, after I posted my little update I actually saw some comments of Rockies fans getting a bit chippy about Bryant but hadn't had...

    2024 Rockies: We've Tried Nothing And We're All Out of Ideas

    The Colorado Sun series I linked to aims to tackle that question. That article ends up landing on, essentially, yeah it's an issue but there should be smart ways for a team to compensate: Link: https://coloradosun.com/2023/08/22/colorado-rockies-coors-field-elevation/ Anecdotally, I moved to...

    2024 Rockies: We've Tried Nothing And We're All Out of Ideas

    Well, since the Rockies don't really "sign players" or anything, it's been pretty quiet over here in the Rocky Mountains. One of the few things about the Rockies that has popped up on my radar at all since Spring Training began is this cartoon: Link...

    Heinz Ketchup is returning to Fenway

    Saving all that payroll to entice Heinz ketchup back at a long term/market rate deal. Wicked smaht.

    2024 Red Sox spring training games

    I've been real, real down on the Sox this off-season but man is it nice to have baseball again. I really like spring training games, so low key and chill.

    2024 Rockies: We've Tried Nothing And We're All Out of Ideas

    I think it's been a while since adopt-a-team has covered the Rockies of Colorado. Well, what the hell, I could use a little more pain and suffering in my life. Two items to start us off: 1) the Rockies are one of the teams that have moved to an in-market streaming option, so true masochists...

    If You Want Big Air, Pull My Finger - Ski and Ride 23-24

    Snow's been nice and soft here in Colorado thanks to a series of storms that's brought our snowpack back to life. It's absolutely dumping in the southern mountains (Wild Creek, Purgatory, etc.) tho it's not really in the cards to get down there this year. Missus and I will take a few days off...
