    Yep, they took the Houston Astros logo and dropped the ball and glove in it. I’ll hold judgement until the unveiling...knowing the Brewers there are probably about 10 versions of this.

    Especially taking a 2-0 lead on the road and losing the next 3 at home. And not being remotely competitive in any of the 3 games. A true disaster.
  3. owbc
    The Bucks really didn't want to win that game.

    Playing Ohio State is usually an unpleasant reminder of the gap between the Badgers and the top-4. And there is another big gap between Ohio State and Alabama.

    Wisconsin 24 OSU 21 Let’s do it!

    The good news is that there are a maximum of 4 MLB games remaining that will not have a pitch clock.

    The old blue/yellow colors look outdated to me. They look so much better with the darker blue.

    The A's aren't moving anywhere, the ballpark situation will be resolved. It's too lucrative of a market to give up. SF is completely separate from Oakland. They are never going to add an MLB team to any of those small Midwestern cities.
  9. owbc
    With the Warriors and Raiders leaving Oakland it would be insane for MLB to leave that market. Getting fans to pay attention is a 2-way street, why would anyone follow a team that might relocate when there is a second one in the same area? That would change quickly with a stadium deal.

    Interesting. I would expect them to install a premium seating section in the field level. Although these always look terrible on TV because no more than half the seats are ever full.

    Note that the Florida teams are not in the bottom five despite their attendance woes. I'm sure they are still near the bottom but the situation there is not as dire as sometimes depicted by the photos of empty seats.

    A couple thoughts... People will rationalize just about anything in exchange for wins. That is a universal trait of sports fandom. All Midwestern states are kind of similar but the one thing Wisconsin has on its neighbors is a greater superiority complex. And everything about the Packers fits perfectly into that narrative. As for the Cardinals, their marketing department has added fuel to the fire, but I suspect things will change when Molina retires. The fans will mostly go along with it, the same way they do everywhere else. All things considered, it's more fun to be on the winning side. And when the winning stops the fans quickly lose patience for antics that are deemed completely acceptable during the good times.

    I strongly agree with Cool Hand Lucroy's analysis. The Nats and Astros are certainly not winning because of their TOR starters...if anything they are winning despite their shortcomings. All of them besides Strasburg have looked vulnerable. It seems like the hitting approach is the commonality between the two teams...particularly an ability to get on base and keep pressure on the opposing pitchers. Take a guess which teams were #1 and #2 in MLB in the regular season in OBP? The other aspect is the randomness of the postseason. The Nats were lucky to get through both the wild card and the NLDS.

    Can the shaky Nats bullpen hold this lead???
  15. owbc
    Fixed! And yes, Soto is incredible. What a swing on that slider low and a away.
  16. owbc
    I’m shocked at the spread. OSU by 14? No way.
  17. owbc
    My predictions from the last round were completely wrong but I'll take the Nationals in 7. Go Nats!

    Why is everyone still talking about last week? These upsets happen all the time. Nothing about the Wisconsin program has changed between today and a week ago. I had completely forgotten that Purdue beat Ohio State by 29 points last year. OSU still won the Rose Bowl. Plus we're bowl eligible so in some ways the season was already a success ;-)

    Is the middle one the spring training colors? I love those. The gold is too dark against the navy.
  20. owbc
    I would expect the barley M to stick around as an alternative. If they go with something like the spring training unis I’ll be happy. Block lettering, pinstripes, and baby blue can stay in the past.

    It happens, Clemson should have lost to UNC and they will certainly be in the CFP. If Wisconsin wins next week they are right back in the picture again. And they probably increased their chances of winning by losing today.
  22. owbc
    Yep, the drag numbers are completely off the charts of the seasonal cycle, including indoor parks like Tampa and Houston.
  23. owbc
    MLB's attitude about it is the most pathetic part. Did they not think that everyone wouldn't know immediately? The numbers speak for themselves.
  24. owbc
    Exactly, and the B10 is undoubtedly the #2 conference. So it would be shocking to not see at least one Big Ten team in the playoff.
  25. owbc
    The conference championship games are the de facto quarterfinals. It is almost certainly an elimination game for the playoff. The only hope would be if a 2-loss OSU/PSU/Michigan beats an undefeated Wisconsin in the B10 championship along with some help from Clemson and Oklahoma. Otherwise they will just take the 1-loss team that beats Wisconsin. If there is too much carnage then it just brings more teams into the picture such as Oregon and Norte Dame.
