Native Floridian, Furman alum, Georgia State alum, favorite teams are those coached by former players or teammates of mine and coaches I've worked with

@itsmeduh1234 @wesrucker247 I don’t believe that’s the case. Only in the SEC or NCAA tournament would that apply. Regular season play it’s the decision of the home team.

@aria_gerson When is the last time a SEC team won fewer than 20 overall games in a season? I don’t see anyway they win more than 4-5 games the rest of the season.

@kristinbroadway He’s noticeably dropped his arm slot. I think his shoulder may be bothering him.

@BravesOnWTBS Jim Kaat in the booth with Ernie that day.

@grantmcauley There’s a group in Tampa that will buy the team. The Rays will be in Tampa with a big league stadium eventually. Local ownership is the key driver here.
Once Sternberg gets off his inflated asking price things will get moving.

@Rebecca_Romanek @JustinCToscano This is a big deal to YouTube TV subscribers and anyone else who lives in the Braves broadcast territory who doesn’t have access to Fan Duel through their tv service. Now you don’t need cable, satellite or a streaming service to watch the Braves in market. Just buy the app.

@acvNC9 @scottcoleman55 Does Fubo still not have TNT, TBS and TruTV? Many NCAA tourney games are on those networks. That’s the reason I don’t have Fubo.

@aria_gerson Thanks for the insights. Good analysis!

@lutrm48 @TheNermin1 @Braves You need to subscribe to https://t.co/dLg3cjzCuA you would still be blacked out when they play the Nats because you live in their broadcast territory and YouTube TV doesn’t carry MASN

@NotBarthMarlins @KendallRogers @TCU_Baseball No he had already left for Army. No way they would have cut baseball if he was still there.

@leomagaorl @TheGoodPhight The Mets played great baseball up until the last week of the season. They entered the postseason having lost 4 of 6. I think the verdict on the extended rest is that one can argue how detrimental it is but it’s not shown to be any real benefit either.

@MikePalmieri11 @dodson_jason @00htani @Ralph_Seegobin I agree. Tough call vs the Noles.

[David Hartley @hartld]

@MikePalmieri11 @dodson_jason @00htani @Ralph_Seegobin Well, now the Noles are 0-4 vs the top 10 after their loss to UT. Pathetic seems like a strong word for that kind of record vs the top 10. Heck FSU went 6-9 on the road in the ACC.

[David Hartley @hartld]

@MikePalmieri11 @dodson_jason @00htani @Ralph_Seegobin Both UCF and St John’s turned out to be NCAA tournament teams. UF went 7-11 in the regular season vs Top 10 rated RPI teams. FSU went 0-3 vs the top 10. Nobody played more or beat more RPI top 10 teams than UF.

@thecoach20015 @jbreynolds4040 @dodson_jason @00htani @Ralph_Seegobin @hartid Good stuff!

[David Hartley @hartld]

@thecoach20015 @jbreynolds4040 @dodson_jason @00htani @Ralph_Seegobin If any other team played the same schedule with the #1 strength of schedule they would be in the SEC and they would not get left out. I don’t understand your point. Georgia Tech went 15-15 in the ACC, didn’t beat anyone of note in non conf. If they were in the SoCon they’d be out

[David Hartley @hartld]

@MikePalmieri11 @dodson_jason @00htani @Ralph_Seegobin They were swept at Missouri. What other series did they lose to lower level teams. Look at their schedule. They played more games vs teams who made the NCAA tournament than anyone in the country.

[David Hartley @hartld]

@thecoach20015 @jbreynolds4040 @dodson_jason @00htani @Ralph_Seegobin Sully felt like they deserved to be in. He said it when they won the series at Georgia to close the regular season over .500. They got in because they played the toughest schedule in the country and had a lot of quality wins.

[David Hartley @hartld]

@thecoach20015 @jbreynolds4040 @dodson_jason @00htani @Ralph_Seegobin Good debate. When the tournament committee looks at teams they are on even footing. Quality wins are most important. Lamar and Charleston had very few and the leagues they play in are not remotely comparable to the SEC. Their gripe should be with JMU, Coastal or Indiana.
