  1. It was time. Seattle has been a "good" team (finish above. 500 and make the playoffs) for a while but they haven't been a superbowl caliber team for at least 5 years.

    I know it was largely a salary dump but I'm sure the combined 19 games the Ms get from Haniger  in between IL stints and the 5 starts from DeSclafani before he goes on the IL too will be great

  3. I don't want to alarm anyone so please sit down before you read this:

    The Mariners actually spent money to sign a free agent. To a major league deal. For more than league minimum. For longer than 1 year. 

    Mitch Garver 2 years, 24 million

    Also, I dunno if you been watching what Sting has been doing in AEW but yeah safety ain't exactly been his priority.  

    Doesn't Sting also wear padding underneath his shirt and pants? He's still batshit insane for jumping off balconies ans whatnot but at least he's taking some type of precaution it seems

  5. The Orioles are apparently close to a deal with Craig Kimbrel. Which to me feels like your parents giving you the car they bought brand new 11 years ago which now has 200,000 miles on it, leaks fluids and could fall apart the first time you hit a pothole. I mean yeah, it still runs but....

  6. Clearly the solution for Oakland is to sign an aging catcher, a power hitting voodoo practitioner, an ex-con who can throw 100mph and someone who has the sprint speed of Usain Bolt. That'll fix everything.

    Oakland's mayor says that the city will only allow the As to play in the city from 2025-2027 if MLB agrees to...

    1) The Athletics name stays in Oakland

    2) Oakland is guaranteed an expansion team

    This clearly appears to be a non-starter because Manfred already said with a straight face "we don't know if we are going to have expansion"

    They're gonna draw less than 2,000 per game aren't they?

  8. It was better than I thought it would be (I did not care for the Ms Marvel series so my expectations were low) but it still feels to me like a much lower quality than anything that was done in Phase 3. Glossing over Carol destroying the Supreme Intelligence kinda bummed me out. I think a straight Captain Marvel sequel would have been better personally, with maybe a cameo from Kamala towards the end. I didn't hate it, but I have no desire to watch it a second time either.

  9. I *almost* saw Undertaker break character at a house show. It was him and Austin vs Owen and Bulldog in the main event. Austin and Owen are in the ring, Owen does something and then does his "woo" thing where he would raise both his arms in triumph. As soon as he does a very full, very large cup of soda hits him flush in the face. Austin immediately starts belly laughing, Taker puts his head down so his hair is hiding his face but you could see his shoulders moving a little and he was gripping the top rope very tightly obviously trying not to break. Owen, to his credit, milked it for all it was worth.

    Now that the bloom is off the rose of AEW, they have to figure out how to get it back. It's not something Adam Copeland feuding with Christan Cage is going to be able to fix. 

    Tony Khan's failure to manage the CM Punk/Elite situation caused irreparable damage to the company.

    But it's not entirely wrong. Copeland/Cage will draw temporary eyes but they need to really make their own stars.
