You mean that the original report on the Boston College radio guys that clearly came from one aggrieved on-the-record source lacked context and nuance? No way. Never would have guessed.
It’s been totally insane and stupid to watch this story blaming Murray get repeated.
I don’t think it was very difficult. You went directly to Awful Announcing and gave them an interview which now has over a million views. You really made sure you could get in the spotlight with this one and shit on the program that you “love” after talking smack about our new HC
3/10 deadline for the Yanks
Acquired two platoon bats. Garcia will help against righties at 1st and Ramos against lefties.
Neither help answer a position of need. No platoon infielder for Jazz/McMahon. Inexplicably no catcher. Can’t believe they didn’t get a catcher.
So bad
The last 7 years of Dodgers # 1 prospect:
25- Roki Sasaki (not really a prospect)
24-Dalton Rushing (literal loser)
23 and 22- Diego Cartaya (released)
21- Keibert Ruiz (ass)
20-Gavin Lux (ass)
19- Alex Verdugo (ass)
“Loaded” farm system is them being constantly over ranked and overhyped
Just in: Saints are signing WR Chris Olave to a four-year extension worth up to $132 million, including $90 million guaranteed, his agents Drew and Jason Rosenhaus tell ESPN.
I’ll say it - I think it’s completely disingenuous to blacklist Barry Bonds and Alex Rodriguez from the HOF but trot them out for every big event to do the media. Either blacklist them or don’t
I’m sorry but “we are taking time to reflect on the best path forward” is not an option on the table. Either it’s false and you campaign with vigor or it’s true and you get out / apologize to everyone you let down.
After sitting here watching NBA free agency this year and overall NBA movement over the past 2 years somebody has to say it....
The new CBA was sold as parity, but the first and second apron are starting to function like a hard cap on player value, team continuity, and player movement.
Teams are no longer making purely basketball decisions. They’re making fear-based apron decisions. That means good players get squeezed, homegrown cores get broken up, fan-favorite teams lose their identity, and the overall product loses some of the nostalgia and continuity that made people fall in love with the NBA in the first place.
This isn’t about players not understanding business. It’s the opposite. We understand that the NBA is a business. That’s why the @TheNBPA has to operate with elite business acumen, elite negotiating strategy, and real foresight.
The owners and the league walk into these meetings with killers that continue to run circles around us time and time again with elite lawyers, economists, cap experts, media strategists, and long term business operators. Players deserve a PA that is just as sharp, just as prepared, and just as aggressive about protecting our upside.
Too often, it feels like players are informed after the fact instead of being truly educated and empowered before decisions are made. That cannot continue.
The next CBA is a do or die moment for us as players. It's only going to get worse for us. We need transparency, accountability, and a serious re evaluation of who is representing us and how they are representing us.
This is not anti parity. This is pro player, fan, and product. The league is strongest when players are valued properly, great teams can stay together, and the people representing us are operating at the same level as the people sitting across the table.
