    Already in FG range. Put this away.
  2. TheLeviathan
    They need to keep running.
  3. TheLeviathan
    Over the bye let's just get "fair catch a punt every time" down. No rush. No return. Just no screw ups.
  4. TheLeviathan
    Well...kicker is good!
  5. TheLeviathan
    Jones being out could be a big factor in the second half.
  6. TheLeviathan
    Give them nothing to build on before the half.
  7. TheLeviathan
    Or zero!
  8. TheLeviathan
    I think that was a bad read by Darnold. He turned down underneath receivers on back to back plays.

    I must've missed the part I was supposed to learn in demeaning this article as "Marxist". We disagree that there is any "requirement" for public subsidy. The Twins are under no strict obligation to consider the community, but they do so at their own peril. As evidenced by the crowds at Target Field this year.

    I am shocked at how many people in this thread want to carry water for billionaires who took public money and actively avoid investing in the product unless it suits them. This article captures the root of the problem with both the Pohalds and funding for public education. Didn't think I'd type that today....

    A hitter who can never keep his wrists healthy seems like a bad bet. Then again....1.8M and a shot at 1B may be the kind of gamble this team will have to make next year.
  12. TheLeviathan
    Pain.
  13. TheLeviathan
    Totally agree. I might just be trying to snuff my own optimism to save myself the disappointment....
  14. TheLeviathan
    Their anti-trust exemption should be predicated on full financial transparency. It's absurd that it isn't.
  15. TheLeviathan
    I see a few people saying "Bring someone from outside" and "new ideas". Totally on board in principle. However, part of what we're hearing is that Levine felt like his more aggressive, riskier inclinations were being rebuffed. I worry someone new is only going to be hired if they have one really well developed skill: falling on the sword for ownership.

    These things are not mutually exclusive. They deserve zero defense. Zero.
  17. TheLeviathan
    He looked plenty good to me. I have no idea why they consistently look away from him.
  18. TheLeviathan
    We definitely agree the right thing for baseball is fan access, I just don't think direct-to-consumer is viable long term. It's too prohibitive to truly reach a lot of eyeballs.

    A true floor would address middle tier of salaries. It's why you see a lot of roleplayers in the NHL and NBA making significant money. The only players who would actually make less in a salary cap world are the super elite guys. Even then, like in the NHL and NFL, they just pay those guys and figure out the rest later. Media revenues should not be dependent on winning. You could do away with revenue sharing entirely if you just pooled media money and split it evenly. It is THE driving force of inequity in baseball.

    I was never a Kirk hater, but Atlanta is 3-2 and you could definitely argue they're a hair away from being 0-5. He looked pretty good last night but that team does not scare me in the slightest.
  21. TheLeviathan
    Well done.
  22. TheLeviathan
    I don't know how that path is going to be paved. It's a huge issue that has only been allowed to fester. I don't have a lot of optimism for the ideal end to this problem.
  23. TheLeviathan
    To be clear...I'm not arguing against going away from the RSNs. I have been advocating for that on this board for like 10 years now. Especially against continuing with Bally's. I'm just making sure no one has pipedreams of reclaming that sweet, sweet 60M again. We won't, I think the odds of 20M are remote. The best thing that could happen is MLB wakes up to the barbarians at their gate and decides to stick their foot in the ground and change the way they share revenue for the long term.
  24. TheLeviathan
    Honestly, no. It's not. I'm not sure where you got the 37M from, but that's not doable. The Padres have a seriously engaged fan base and got to 40,000. The Twins won't achieve 12 times that many fans.
  25. TheLeviathan
    We really don't have to fall on our swords for billionaires.
