There are currently 14 MLB teams with a win % of .500 or better
Somehow 10 of them are in the NL and 4 are in the AL. Already crazy but it gets worse.
Least crazy stat: If you placed the entire NL Central in the American League, the standings would look like this
1. Rays
2. NL Central
3. Yankees
4. NL Central
5. Guardians
6. NL Central
7. NL Central
8. White Sox
9. NL Central
Craziest stat: There's only ONE team in the AL with a winning record vs the NL (Guardians 8-7)
The other 14 teams are either .500 or worse. The 31-15 Rays are 21-4 vs the AL (good lord) and 10-11 vs the NL
The MLB has NEVER seen a division finish with all of its teams below .500. The AL West is on pace to be the first (1st place A's are 23-24)
Yet the AL is so bad if the playoffs started right now 2 AL West teams would make the playoffs (23-24 A's would be the 3 seed & 23-26 Mariners would be the 6 seed (AKA they would PLAY EACH OTHER))
11 of 15 NL teams would be safely in the playoffs if they were in the AL. Could be 13 of 15 considering the Marlins would be 1 game back and Mets would be 2 games back
Obviously 70% of the season to go, but as it stands this is the most lopsided Major League Baseball has ever been
Id like to see the Raiders pull back on the Linderbaum deal and then that starts a domino effect of players/teams going back on their word across the league.
Give me a Deandre Jordan situation
The world is healing! Pats beat the piss out of a weakling team in AFC title game and the losers cry for rule changes. Vintage Bill Polian and the crying Colts. Boo hoo boo hoo we can’t beat the Pats. Let’s throw a pity party and change the rules. Boo hoo. Boo hoo.
Abolish ICE.
What we’ve seen recently isn’t immigration enforcement; it’s state-sponsored terrorism.
They refuse to comply with the Constitution.
They assault Americans with impunity.
They hide behind masks, knowing their actions are shameful.
They should not exist.
Immigration enforcement can be done lawfully and accountably—upholding the rights of the people—but the administration has no interest in that.
They’re using the context of immigration as a pretext to sidestep constitutional limits—warrants, due process, and transparency—that protect us all from government abuses.
We need immigration enforcement that respects the Constitution, not an agency that evades it.
