  1. Man pre snap I just started really dreading a missed PAT. Thankfully it was a good kick.
  2. Another run play that goes nowhere followed by an incomplete pass. Awesome. Now another 4th and short.
  3. Probably another dumb screen pass to Williams.
  4. I mean, in the grand scheme of things this really isn't that important because it's probably very unlikely Canada would get a 3rd team (and I think Montreal would be the landslide favorite to be awarded the 2nd team if that even happens) but this makes no sense at all. The entire country is backing the Blue Jays right now, are people in Edmonton going to go to literal war with Calgary over the right to be true Blue Jays fans? Is it really that big of a stretch to think that maybe a baseball team located just 300 miles away might be one you decide to root for instead of the one that's 2,124 miles away? Toronto has a hockey team too and I'm guessing the Leafs aren't many Alberta residents' favorite team either. I just don't think these are the reasons it wouldn't be an Alberta team, there would be other, better reasons that it wouldn't. Vancouver, from what people have already said on this topic, feels like an objectively more attractive option. I still think Montreal, if the city backs it financially and commits to building a stadium, would be MLB's preferred choice. In the end it's all about money and what ownership group MLB finds most attractive. It could simply be none of the above.
  5. Same province is equal to same state. It's like saying you wouldn't be a Brewers fan if you lived in Rhinelander.
  6. Panthers also have Chuba Hubbard who has put up over 2000 yards rushing and 15 TDs the last two seasons combined. He's also a decent receiver out of the backfield. Dowdle has been stellar the two weeks Hubbard was out with injury and it's natural Hubbard has lost carries to him since his return but that's not a bad one two punch in that backfield.
  7. A nice long period of health would be very welcome from the WR group. Between Watson (hammy/ACL), Doubs (concussions) and now Reed it's certainly been more than a little frustrating to not have all those guys on the field at the same time.
  8. Love the insight here. I also thought of Vancouver first thinking it would be a good spot but was a little surprised that the non-metro population was around the size of Milwaukee. ETA: For reference, the Vancouver metro is around 2.7 to 2.8 million while Calgary/Edmonton comes in around 3.27 million.
  9. I wonder if Surrey is included in that since it has a population of nearly the same size as Vancouver and is only a 45 minute drive away. I'd think Calgary (3rd)/Edmonton (5th) would trump Vancouver (8th)/Surrey (11th) though.
  10. Yeah I saw that Calgary and Edmonton are the 3rd and 5th most populous cities in Canada and they're about 180ish miles apart. I'm sure there's a big hockey rivalry there but different sports can spur different feelings, I'd think the relative closeness would mitigate the hockey rivalry. Ah, looks like there's CFL teams in both cities as well.
  11. If Canada were a US state (I apologize to any Canadians that may be reading this for the generalization) it would be the most populated state in the country. That said, California and Texas aren't that far behind with Florida settling in at a little over half Canada's population. The Blue Jays obviously benefit from being the only Canadian based team. If they had one or two more teams things would, also obviously, fracture. If Montreal had a team and Calgary (3rd largest city by population) had a team, it's not as likely the entire country would be backing the Blue Jays with quite the same fervor as they are now. I'd venture to say that the Blue Jays organization probably secretly hopes they keep their monopoly of the Canadian market.
  12. I don't think this is true. I love the ghost runner in extras. I think it adds pressure and excitement. It used to be if there were a few scoreless innings in extras it wasn't odd at all. Now if you don't score that ghost runner, especially if you're not the home team, you're thinking you're going to lose. Even if you only score 1 run you know that the other team has a really good chance to tie or even win. That said, it absolutely makes sense that old school extra innings rules be used in the postseason. When it's for all the marbles expediting an ending to the game really isn't what the game, or the series, is about at that point. The war of attrition impacts the series regardless of which team actually wins that individual game unless it's a game 7 or series clincher. I could see the ghost runner rule being adopted in the playoffs in the future though. Give fans enough time to become used to the "new" rule and they'll eventually start thinking it's silly that MLB is adhering to an old "archaic" rule like playing extra innings to infinity. I'm not saying I want that, I'm just saying I could see it happening.
  13. Honestly, with all the issues/injuries with the offensive line, the mediocre defensive backfield, the deplorable special teams, I'm not really sure why the rookie WR is even much of a lightning rod at all. One, he's a rookie, two if Love gets enough time he's going to move the offense. It's not really a WR problem.
  14. Right, like even the greats of the game like Ohtani, we know him but we don't KNOW him. Not the way Angels or Dodgers fans do. And Ohtani might be a bad example due to the language barrier, I'm not really sure how much of his personality really comes out in his interviews. But those fans still know him better than fans looking in from the outside. Like back when Aaron Rodgers was rumored to be traded to the Jets, of course NFL fans know who Aaron Rodgers is, how great he is. But I actually saw comments in places whether it was comment sections on online articles or Twitter or wherever, that some New York fans felt like he would be intimidated or feel pressured by the New York media since he was coming from tiny little Green Bay. 😂😂😂 I feel like I remember even Rich Eisen on his podcast (who is a big Jets fan) was wondering a little how he'd react to the scrutiny of the New York media. If anyone should've known better it would have been him. I was like, nah man, Rodgers is going to absolutely OWN New York. And he did, right up until that Achilles injury. Still a shame that, I wanted to see what he could do there without that. He really hasn't been the same since. I mean, Green Bay's media is pretty non-confrontational but the dude was a superstar for close to two decades. He's dealt with media from everywhere. Come on.
  15. I mean, in irrational fan reasoning that's such a long time ago.
  16. Searching hard for comments about the other two guys that struck out but I guess it doesn't fit the narrative.
  17. I think it's possible but it's going to take a lot of pain to get there. A lot. The owners are going to have to hold strong and take the heat from the press and angry fans. That definitely makes it an uphill battle. I don't know how it's going to look. I wonder if the owners have the stomach for an extended stoppage how long will they be able to keep it up. There's already speculation that it could cancel an entire season. What if it goes longer? I think the players right now are chill with waiting out a season to stick to their guns. Will the owners look to put scabs on the field? I have to think that could potentially happen. It's going to be interesting, that's for sure.
  18. Ahh, you're right. I read an article recently and assumed it was talking about next season. ETA: That's 2 mistakes in 2 pages. I think I will refrain from posting again until this thread gets to at least page 4. 😆
  19. Unless the lockout effectively cancels the entire season.
  20. Or CF, RF, 2B, SS, 1B, C. Take your pick.
  21. I tend to agree. I think their pitchers have thrown well and the Brewers as a collective have been caught in a funk on offense. Unfortunately, that's baseball. You can be hot, you can be cold but cold teams in the playoffs don't often get the chance to turn the dial back around to hot.
  22. I just went to some game logs after I posted and saw that this was the case.
  23. I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure it's normal DH rules. So they won't have a DH. I recall earlier in the season there was talk about Ohtani possibly shifting to OF once he's "pulled" off the mound so he can stay in the game but I don't know if he's actually done any of that or not.
  24. Honestly, thanks for the laugh. I needed it.
