  1. They could go to Fox Sports 1 and seize to exist because no one knows what channel that is.... NBC Sports if they want to talk soccer and hockey all day... Other than that? Not much out there.
  2. This is going to be chaotic. Lots of sports media people entering the job market at the same time, and very few spots to go. Jayson Stark I hope lands at MLB Network.
  3. How long can you watch this video before your stomach starts growling? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fdpxoCqyq5Y
  4. I really thought Hughes would be a disaster from the get-go, so he's far exceeded those expectations. I'm still curious to know if/when the wheels are going to fall off though. Now that teams have 4 of his starts on video and they see the trend of heavy change ups, we'll see if more teams wait for the mistake pitches and send them a long way.
  5. Nothing better than this... http://andrewzimmern.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/Franklin-BBQ2.jpg
  6. I'm also disappointed to read that Karl Ravech's role will be significantly reduced going forward. Don't watch Baseball Tonight as much as I used to, but he is very good hosting that show. He's also just one of those jack of all trades kind of people where they could have him cover most anything and he did great.
  7. ESPN has announced a bunch of layoffs today... Article here. Surprised to read Ed Werder got cut. He's been a key cog for their NFL coverage forever. They also finally gave up all NHL coverage, but let's be honest, they haven't cared about the NHL for a long time.
  8. Forgive me if this is ignorant... Is it wrong to suggest continuing to monitor the situation closely and let NK remain in isolation from the rest of the world? There's only so much innovation they can do when the rest of the world keeps them out of the loop. They've been beating the drum for years that they're developing nuclear weapons, and it seems like their tests have all failed. By the time they do perfect a weapon, shouldn't a power country like the US, China, etc. have superior technology to stop it?
  9. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xLpfbcXTeo8
  10. I'm with you... Completely checked out of this year's draft since the Vikes don't have a 1st round pick, and more than likely I won't know anyone they'll draft in the later rounds. They still need multiple OL.... DT is now a priority since Floyd's career is in jeopardy. And I'd like to find a RB in the mid-late rounds that can develop into a feature back by 2018.
  11. Concur with several people here... If Greene is the guy at 1:1, then pony up and don't low ball him. This organization does have depth.... It's debatable how good/great the depth is, but it's there. They're sorely lacking star power. I'd take my chances on Greene, who's been called a generational talent by KLAW, Longenhagen, and other national authors.
  12. Also, Franklin BBQ is the #1 BBQ joint with a bullet.... It's the kind of place where people wait in line beginning at 7 AM to get a spot for lunch. Only had the pleasure of eating it one time, and the brisket is melt in your mouth good... Styles Switch is a close 2nd on the list.
  13. We have an imposter! Or wait.... The intern hasn't been returning my calls, and I'm no longer seeing him at Target playing MLB the Show. Did you offer the intern money to work with you?!
  14. I know this video quality kind of sucks... but it's the only one I've seen so far on YouTube showing off his rocket arm yesterday. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5DXuu_weRA&feature=youtu.be&a
  15. Another moon shot HR to left field last night.... AND a nice defensive play too!
  16. Welcome to Texas! Thought I would try the bar a short walk away, but everyone wants to watch the Spurs... Ugh.
  17. Yes!! Winner. I'm using this nickname from now on for Hughes.
  18. No TV broadcast on FSN? The Texas broadcast is blacked out on mlb.TV for me....
  19. Baseball Tonight was appointment TV for me in the late 90's- 2000's... Couldn't go to bed without knowing what the web gems were that particular night!
  20. Enforcers in hockey are becoming dinosaurs btw... Sure, there are still players that are physical and can fight if need be. But there are no Derek Boogaards* in the NHL anymore... *Guys who provide no skill whatsoever except the ability to fight on ice.
  21. Very cool. Didn't get to know who he was until the end of his career... This is dangerous, but was he popped for steroids at any time? Looking at his stats now, I guess I always assumed he was a 40 HR hitter but that didn't happen until the late 90s when I started loving baseball.
  22. Karl already has a nickname? Dang, didn't know he was that legit already.
  23. These are good. May I suggest Hector the Kollector?!
  24. Does anyone know the story why Andres Gallaraga was nicknamed the Big Cat? It's a great nickname...
  25. Very true. Still waiting for Tom Clancy to get his finances together and buy the Vikings!
