Perhaps others saw it differently, but I didn't recall quite 85% (was also only a lurker back then). I was certainly on the optimistic side of the argument. I thought he'd at least put in more than a year and a half of work before his likely prime ended. He was absolutely pitching hurt...

And he was steady as a rock in taking the mound the previous 5 seasons through age 27. I would've have sworn Sale would go the way of Randy Johnson, who only missed major time in 3 out of his age 25-40 seasons, at least into his 30s. But you never know with pitchers.

I can at least vouch for not knowing the full extents yet, even more so with Tiger's surgical history. I was a passenger in a car accident which snapped my femur cleanly. It took months to recover from that, then afterward when the initial trauma was over I was feeling back pains and knee...

Was Doug unconscious the past 10 years or so? "Hypotheticals in order to be outraged" was the original show name before settling on Felger & Mazz. The pandemic has been my clean break from Boston sports radio (during my 45-50 minute commute did half podcasts/half radio) and I don't regret it...

Yeah, there's a wide gulf between making cuts and being competitive and winning tournaments going forward. Even before factoring in the injury comeback, just think about how long it took it took for Tiger to be consistent after the last substantial layoff. This time, he may casually swing a...

I saw this headline on a sidebar and was like 'holy shit, I forgot that somehow LaRussa didn't lose his job this offseason!' Is this vote of confidence from Anderson similar to the Bobby V optimism at the beginning of S.T. which quickly turned into a "that's not how we do things here" from...

Facts, olaying the dunk is looked at as the more respectable play for some reason. Watanabe is a former A10 defensive player of the year, so he had just enough self esteem to try and challenge.

I definitely agree, knowing how great Hader can be. He seems like the kind of guy who is super lively in the room, but goes into robot mode with a tone like I have when I'm stuck on the phone and just want to end the damn call. Additionally Hader has been writing for the better part of the...

And he'll supply the beers for the weekend from his brewery. I think instituting dual inductees in addition to the "senior" selection is the way to go at least for the near future. Even a tricameral situation where you take one inductee from the 4-14 years retired list (for now this becomes...

You're not going to pay a lot for... With the returning players from the Covid sit-out list and the cap space available to improve depth significantly, even running it back with Cam or bringing in a Fitz could get them to 9 or 10 wins. A "long" season compared to 2001-2019, but a good season...

Standing ovation for the Tyreek taunt. Fuck that guy.

You love to see it for a guy so classy.

Thanks, and c/o Sportscenter Jim Brown also was inducted to the HOF at 35 (he may have been elected at 34 yo if they did so around SB time, as his DOB is Feb 17th).

Well, 2 from the "way below" category get in. At least all 3 of the most qualified players will get in. But that's some bullshit if you are putting 5 players in the HOF and Seymour does not get in. Is Calvin Johnson at 35 yo the youngest to ever get into the HOF?

Absolutely no foul there.
