re: News coming out about Reuben Bain and a 2024 driving incident

After seeing the allegations from last year on Kyren Lacey and then actually watching the video of the incident I no longer jump to conclusions on these things. There is a reason he wasn’t charged. The news likes to jump the gun and put out false narratives before getting all the facts in order to try to drop a breaking story
The difference is that this one has made its way through both the criminal and civil justice system. One story said there was a lawsuit involved.
The problem is that the media has not been able to find out much about it, so we the public don't know a lot.

Dan Orlovsky: I'm not receiving instructions from my agent on Ty Simpson

Awful Announcing
In other news, The Athletic has said that Diana Russini's photos with Mike Vrabel were innocent and taken out of context.
Oh, wait.
It's a noble try, Dan, but when the NYT does not renew Russini's contract in August (her deal is up), she is going to take it out on everybody and expose who in the media field is engaged in unethical relationships, both sexual and otherwise, with subjects they are covering. Or some young reporter will do some actual journalism and uncover it. In either event, Dan, you're busted and done, so my advice is to keep your mouth shut and save that ESPN money while it lasts.

re: Does anyone today have Tiger's Sunday kill mode?

Scotty played bogey-free all weekend.
Rory sprayed his driver all over the place the whole tournament. He was overaggressive on 12, hit the best drive of all time on 13, mishit his approach shot on 15 almost into the drink, airmailed 16 and went into the trees on 18.
He was -13 and up by 2 going into the final hole.
Being in Tiger kill mode is not about playing well. It's about scoring well. It's about making birdies and avoiding bogey and worse despite yourself. Rory had it yesterday.

Just to provide context, this resort they were at is "adults-only"
It is not adults-only in the "place where people can go and not have to deal with a lot of screaming kids" kind of way.
It's adults-only in the other kind of way.
It's not a place a single goes to relax and it's not a place your office is going to book a bunch of rooms for your group work trip.
Keep that in mind when you are arguing "nothing to see here."

Managers being able to make pitching decisions based on pitching.
Lineups having 9 players who are major league hitters instead of 8 major league hitters and 1 guy whose hitting is akin to a bench player in high school.
Oh, and seeing Shohei play 162 games. No DH, no 2-way Shohei.
Yeah, I'll take the DH.
Can you imagine hitting pitchers in college baseball during the NCAA Tournament? Holy hell what a nightmare that would be.

Diana Russini and Mike Vrabel having an affair (allegedly)

They have denied it, but apparently stories about her sleeping with "sources" have been open secrets in the NFL for a long time.
Why don't other journalists speak up about this kind of thing? It provides an unfair unethical advantage not available to male reporters, and it makes female reporters look bad. Yet, they all swallow the whistle and say nothing. If this is how they run their own industry, then I'm not gonna lose any sleep over Tom Brady and Troy Aikman double dipping as game analysts and team executives when the media people all claim there is a conflict of interest.

They did a mock on SiriusXM NFL Radio this morning, and the analyst took Lemon even though Bain was on the board. And this was his exact point: Bain is 4-3 end while the Saints play 3-4.
re: Dylan needs to get it going.Struggling again in AAA.Not good
Posted by bstaceyau19 on 4/4/26 at 10:47 am to Covingtontiger77
With a few individual exceptions, college pitching is no where near MLB, AAA, or even AA pitching. And the metal bats make a difference too. Theres no way to know who will make it and who won't.
re: Former LSU commit Konnor Griffin signs 9 year $140 million contract without an MLB AB

I don’t understand the point of this post. Yeah he was committed to LSU. He never came to campus and never played an inning for LSU.
Because it plays a role in Skenes' future. With Pittsburgh committing $140 Million to Griffin, they almost certainly will trade Skenes sooner rather than later. Especially with a salary cap more than likely coming to MLB.

Falcons on hook for $8.7 Million for Kirk Cousins in 2026 despite him signing with the Raiders.
The Autumn Wind is a Raider, pillaging just for fun.
He'll knock you 'round and upside down

This acquisitions shows they are. The consumer-facing PFF is taking a huge hit but the stuff they sell to NFL/CFB teams is booming and was the focus of this sale.
Their data is very helpful for teams who have the rest of the information on hand to make PFF data make sense. It does not work and never worked in a vacuum by itself.
Looks like they retained the portion of the business that made money and dumped the part that lost money.

Red Bull knew it was an engine formula and knew they wouldn't be prepared for it.
What's sad is that Max knew and his team still dropped the ball on the formula.
Like he said, whoever builds the best engine will have an advantage. Would probably mean you want to build the best engine. Merc and Ferrari did.
I think this is one of F1's biggest selling points. You never know going into a season who is going to be fast. The flip side is that whoever is fast stays fast all year, so theres very little movement in the results race by race
re: Why the abject hatred for Duke basketball?

Go watch "I Hate Christian Laettner" on ESPN. That tells a part of the story.
Coach K was always very media savvy, so his teams always got good coverage. That's another reason.
Some in the media hate them because they have traditionally had white guys and black guys whose "blackness" was in doubt. Jalen Rose has said as much about Grant Hill.
The main reason, however, is they almost never suck. People hate teams that never suck.

I watched the Red Sox/Reds game today (Boston announcers) and they were discussing the adventures of CB from Saturday. They think that Bucknor did not grant an appeal on a check swing late in the game in order to retake control of them game after being embarrassed by ABS. Guy is a real jerk.
I'd love to see Angel Hernandez in an ABS world.

Imagine retiring from a sport that requires you to sit on your butt and drive a car. “Athletes” these days are SOFT!
The problem in F1 is if your car is slow, it will be slow all year; there's no real way to fix that during the season. In Indycar, speed can be found in between races, and there is a level of racecraft that can get otherwise slow cars to the front.
