    It is high....it is far....John Sterling is gone from the Yankees broadcast booth

    One thing that has kind of been lost with time was how front and center Sterling and Kay were during the Yankees run in '96. Their radio calls were regularly played on SportsCenter. Sterling had been calling Yankees games for a while, but I don't remember "Yankees Win!" being so prominent before...

    2024 College Basketball Coaching Carousel

    I spent a month in Ft Smith, Arkansas due to the Air Force. Only state I have driven thru that had massive potholes on the highway. Even worse, the strip clubs were topless only.

    How Calipari arrived to the press conference. Questions had not begun. He just looks miserable. Heaven forbid he just retires.

    2023-2024 Women’s College Basketball

    Great chat back and forth. I don't have much to add besides this: Iowa committed 8 turnovers in the first quarter (16 total). In any sport, if I see a team play below their level for a segment of game, and their opponent does not take full advantage, it's an awful omen. It's safe to think that...

    ESPN Is Pathetic

    People online love the excitable Dookie, JJ Reddick; but it has been a big drop off from Doc in the booth.

    Felger and Mazz - Creating False Naratives one day at a time

    Only caught the opening, but I thought Felger and Mazz did a good job discussing Lucchino impact on the Red Sox and the city of Boston.

    Anyone who doesn't recognize how Fenway has been upgraded since FSG took over either doesn't remember its state during Yawkey Trust or is being dishonest. Just something as simple as no longer being locked into whatever section of the park your ticket was located. Screens with the game on added...

    Non-Patriots Free Agency News 2024

    I get picking a guy you like and missing. It happens. The aggressive PR job the Steelers did from owner down to the towel boy to hype up Kenny was shameless. They were all united on declaring he is the guy and they were all in - until they could sign Russ for the minimum. What's the old Judge...

    Thoughts/Impressions on “The Dynasty” Apple TV Series

    Did Tampa limit Brady's autonomy regarding Guerrero (or anything else)? I don't recall that being the case. I thought Brady made this a cost of doing business with him at that point of his career. I don't have a problem with Bill saying no to it, but it really bit him in the ass the last four years.

    Still Not the Super League: Champions League 23/24

    True. We don't see guys play wide like they used to. Even though Figo was built like a bull (good luck to smaller defenders trying to move him off the ball) he was a classic winger who was primarily a facilitator. Today, he would be expected to play more like CR7/Bale/Son. We can observe how...

    Still Not the Super League: Champions League 23/24

    Fair question. I'm waiting to see my son's doctor, so I can go with a longer answer: Figo was a better player. He won world player of the year and his time at Barca is legendary; but his time for the Selecao was spotty. They missed out on USA '94 and '98. They were eliminated in the group stage...

    Artur Jorge dead at 78. Played/managed both Benfica and Portugal; but I believe best remembered as Porto's European Cup winning manager in 1987. They defeated Bayern 2-1 with Madjer scoring the winner with a heel kick. View: https://youtu.be/R51-OS7N_zs?si=nelGbEEE-xHedg_H When I started...
