I personally believe people care more about PED's in baseball more than football is the care about record holders. Baseball has relatively stayed the same in the last 96 years besides the games played per season going from 154 to 162. The game style of football has changes drastically in the last 100 years. Football has ranged from 10 games to 16 games per season in the last 75 years. Personally, OJ's 2000 yards in 1973 is more impressive than Adrian Peterson in 2012.
HGH in football I'm sure is more rampant than steroids in baseball. We all knew (at least all of us that are over 40) knew Canseco was taking steroids in the last 80's. We all had a laughed reading the stories of Canseco playing bumper cars with his wife and their BMW and Porsche. We all pretty much know that football players use HGH. It seems as if the public doesn't really care.
This is just the start of major jumps in players salaries. Most of the advertising dollars are being spent on sports. How many people DVR sporting events....1%, if that....how many people DVR and skip the commercials of their favorite sitcom or drama...pretty much everyone under 60.
I'd still take Jackie. Put Morgan in a situation of having the racial pressure that Robinson had to endure his entire career. How many close calls went against Robinson. Would Robinson have been even better if he started his MLB career near the same age(28) as Morgan(19)? We see how some players let off field situations hamper their play on the field. Two instances come to mind with the divorces that Frank Thomas and Prince Fielder had.
This. I've always thought a traveling minor league team of free agents would be a good idea. Guys aren't signed to an organization but still get the opportunity to play. Sort of like the NBA's D-League. They already have this. It's called the Independent League.
I'm in need of a new router for my PC. Mine is over 8 years old, and possibly up to 10 years old. I was told I need at least a dual channel router. I asked what was better and was told a wireless AC. I am tech illiterate, and I need some help on which one exactly to get. Please post a link of one available for sale that you would recommend.
Has that been published? I'm fine with that, but K-Rod has yet to get a bobble in a Brewers uniform, so unless he gets traded in the off season, he should be a lock for one of the regular SGA bobbles in 2016. Yes, on my online season ticket renewal.
I received my 2016 season ticket email earlier this week. There are 7 all fan Sunday giveaway days, and 3 Sunday kids only giveaway days. Any guesses on the bobbles? K-Rod Lind Vintage Domingo Santana Hank the Dog...why not another? Braun gnome Lucroy gnome
At the beginning of the 3rd inning the first batter, I believe Pedro Alvarez called for time while Davies was in his windup. That was the 5th te in the short 2+ inning that was done to him. I wished he would have put one in alvarez' shoulder at that time. He had 3 bad batters.
