  1. When football replays started how many people said we would never get to the point where they will automatically review every scoring play?
  2. Yeah football is a little outta hand but that's partly because there's already so many commercial breaks and a limited amount of action to begin with (was reading something and there's only like 10 actual minutes of pure action in a 3 hr football game, the rest is huddling, challenges, commercials etc.) I think something like the play tonight is just a no brainer to be reviewed because it literally decides if the game is over or not. Well #1 the ruling was correct, and #2 maybe in theory if you only reviewed a play like this it would be ok, but in reality once you open the pandora's big box of challenges it just keeps growing and growing and making things more boring
  3. Yup it mattered so much. But youre right the entire review would have only paused the game for 20-30 seconds It is inevitable that plays like that are eventually reviewed. So its still a bad idea
  4. Yup it mattered so much. But youre right the entire review would have only paused the game for 20-30 seconds are you seriously arguing they shouldn't review plays like that? Yes I am, reviews are so boring, have you watched any football recently? It is getting worse and worse. Baseball is entertainment, keep it that way. NFL coaches always end up challenging stupid plays which means automatic commercial breaks and it keeps expanding and expanding, automatic challenges on all scoring plays etc.
  5. I never knew this but...the umps were correct: Rule 7.05g The position of the batter-runner at the time the wild throw left the thrower’s hand is the key in deciding the award of bases. If the batter-runner has not reached first base, the award is two bases at the time the pitch was made for all runners. The decision as to whether the batter-runner has reached first base before the throw is a judgment call.

  7. RRR is having Gonzalez watch for a bunt here since that is what he would do
  8. This is why WAR assumes that every team will win around 50 games no matter who is on the roster
  9. OK dont throw an 0-2 fastball down the middle here like you did to Posey
  10. Wanting it more is a myth that does not really exist because currently there is not an equation for it that you can plug into the WAR calculation
  11. That single from Lohse ruined our chances of matching this game by the Braves, also against the Giants (which I would say is ironic if I didn't know what that word meant). What feat were we on pace for, although still far away from? The all-time record for this feat was set in the above game
  12. Even though I probably should not like Gomez because of all his dumb baserunning and total lack of plate discipline, I still like him because of slides like that
  13. The guy has more grand slams than Wade Boggs, Ty Cobb, Al Kaline and Ryan Braun.
  14. Favorite player. How did Babe Ruth know Betancourt would wear number 3 all the way back in the 1920s?
  15. Despite that horrible slide, Weeks said before the game against the Giants he had not broached the subject with Roenicke to move to another spot in the lineup. "I'm fine with it," Weeks said. "We talked about it just the one time, the first day he did it. Obviously, you get pitched a little differently but it's all the same." Weeks said Roenicke told him it was best for the team for him to bat fourth and that was good enough for him. "You can't do that (complain)," he said. "We're trying to win games. I'm not one to make excuses or anything like that. I'm struggling a little bit but you've got to go out there; there's no pity party. "We've got to do our job as a team. It's not about me." Despite Weeks' willingness to take one for the team, Roenicke said he's still thinking about the cleanup spot on a daily basis. "I still think Rick fits the profile well when he's swinging the bat," Roenicke said. "He got out of whack at a time right when I put him in the four-spot. So, we'll figure that out, whether it's Rick or we move him back to second. I don't think 'Seggy' (Jean Segura) is going to want to hit fourth, so we'll figure it out." http://www.jsonline.com/sports/brewers/rickie-weeks-a-mess-while-batting-cleanup-eq9j43s-203331471.html
  16. Pablo Sandoval Positions: Third Baseman and First Baseman Bats: Both, Throws: Right Height: 5' 11", Weight: 240 lb. Not sure about this
