    Hunter Renfroe traded to Brewers for JBJ and 2 prospects

    Not a big difference, but he's turning 32 in April. Not sure why JBJ was such a bad hitter last year. It certainly does not bode well for a hitter when their power is down (not sure the reason why) and their K% is the highest of their career. Power issues at this age are concerning. I...

    Hunter Renfroe traded to Brewers for JBJ and 2 prospects

    Alex Binelas is MLB.com's 65th ranked prospect (3B). Pretty good season in A ball last year. He had a 314/379/636 slash line including 9 homers in 132 plate appearances. Sox eating some cash led to a better prospect it looks like.

    The Game Goat Thread: Week 13 at Packers

      On ESPN Countdown today, there were a few of the analysts broadcasting from Green Bay. Ditka said that the wind would be a factor. However, it wasn't really discussed at all during the game.   Regarding the game, there really is no shame in this loss. It was hard fought, and relatively mistake...

    NFL Sunday Ticket now available via PS3

    I got this last week because a) I am not a Direct TV subscriber b) I live outside of the NE market c) football is the tits. My review is that it is a completely adequate solution to watch football, but it definitely is not worth the $360 that they are charging for it. It was nice to be able to...

    iPhone App Thread

    It's a pretty cool app. It is similar to what you see when you go to street level on google maps. I have found that it works best in large spaces. Here is a photo I took last Monday at Fenway.

    This is awesome to hear. Cablevision is the worst.

    I don't understand how simply taking a year off would absolve a player, especially of Jordan's caliber, from an accusation such as betting on basketball. If Jordan left the NBA for a year for that reason, then something would have been reported by now and it would have been a gigantic news story.

    QUOTE (Rick Burlesons Yam Bag @ Jan 13 2010, 10:32 PM) a) Fans were booing during plays. Not as they happened, but as the team was coming to the line, which was a little striking. Usually fans boo the moment the play ends or as the team is walking off the field during the game. It seemed a...

    QUOTE (NoXInNixon @ Jan 12 2010, 01:31 PM) The only time I'd boo is if I thought my team wasn't even trying. This was the case on Sunday.

    TMQ Thread

    I don’t understand why it is thought to be fair-weather when really the fans were just being passionate about their team. I was at the game. There was a colossal line at the gates to get in. During the ridiculous wait, I had to hear that Ray Rice brought back a TD but only 4 seconds had come off...

    Why Do I Continue to Read Peter King?

    QUOTE (B H Kim @ Nov 13 2009, 01:25 PM) I haven't seen this mentioned, but in King's mid-season NFL awards piece in the magazine this week, he gives the Comeback Player of the (half) Year Award to Favre. That's got to be self parody, right? Really!? That is just awful. I don't really see...

    I guess I am in the minority here, but I really enjoyed this one and put it second behind the USFL documentary. I wasn't around in 1980 and seeing Ali obviously on the tail end of his fighting career was pretty interesting. The video spoke for itself, especially when Ali couldn't hit the...

    I was born 5 days after the USFL was launched so I really didn't know that much about the league. This documentary really told the story from begining to end. I got a great feel for the key players, the great things about the league, and the reasons why it didn't work out. Considering all the...

    Why Do I Continue to Read Peter King?

    QUOTE (drleather2001 @ Oct 19 2009, 09:45 AM) Now, I know the Giants are a much better team than the Titans, but really, Peter? QUOTE I'm not sure, but I think the 60 minutes the Saints played Sunday was the best all-around 60 minutes of football any team has played this year. I mean, aside...

    The program definitely left me wanting more. It probably would have benefited from another half hour. One of the most annoying things for me was when before a commercial they showed Berg saying that getting into the specifics of the transaction was very interesting. That was something I...

    Joe Buck Show/Artie Lange/Mike Francesa/and now...Chris Russo

    I happend to stumble across this show right as this segment began and stuck around because Artie was a guest. It was riveting television. A couple of thoughts: - Buck clearly was caught off guard and had no idea how to reign Artie in. - It didn't look like Buck prepared at all for that...
