@jimfurtado One MVP level player can make a football or basketball team competitive. It doesn’t work like that in MLB. Bobby Witt is great, but they can’t afford a good supporting cast for him. Mahomes doesn’t NEED as much help—look at the subpar WRs he’s had lately.
@jimfurtado@FlannyMLB Letting Carlos Beltran, Johnny Damon, Jermaine Dye, Eric Hosmer, Lorenzo Cain, Mike Moustakas, etc all go because they couldn’t afford to keep them didn’t have anything to do with them being perennial also rans…?
@FergiceEmblem@dcuworld I did a Google search so I could give specific examples. I’ve been reading for forty years and can’t just quickly recall specific stuff. 🤷♂️
@ParksideHowHow1@FlannyMLB@ShefJortan That comment alone proves you’re not intelligent enough to continue this discussion. There’s all kinds of data that proves the Chiefs don’t get help from refs, in fact it’s the opposite—but facts don’t matter to you, because you’re just an immature jackass.
@ParksideHowHow1@FlannyMLB@ShefJortan Because small market teams going THIRTY YEARS without being competitive isn’t good for business. Why would fans pay to support that?
Every team in the NFL feels like they’re one season away from contention. MLB teams don’t because it’s not an even playing field.
@FlannyMLB@ParksideHowHow1@ShefJortan Exactly. All the signings worked.
Almost a once in a lifetime chance that Hosmer, Moose, Cain, Davis, Holland, Escobar all peaked together at the same time.
I think all of them were gone within three seasons.
@MichaelCaden@ProFootballTalk@FitzMagic_14 Since he has more experience at it than you do, does that mean YOU don’t have the ability to say whether Fitzpatrick is bad at what HE does?
@The_CCQ@ProFootballTalk@FitzMagic_14 If he’s not qualified to speak about that, why are you qualified to disagree?
You know even less than he does, right?
That’s such a weak position.
@ParksideHowHow1@ShefJortan What about @FlannyMLB, one of the best beat writers in the history of baseball?
He spent years following a small market team that went to the World Series two years in a row-He knows it was lightning in a bottle that they had their young talent all pay off at the same time.
@HeirToTheCowl_ Morrison ignored it, but it’s still in play now.
Morrison’s run should almost be seen as Elsewords. He didn’t follow the previous writers and they kind of ignored what he did.
It’s a great read, just doesn’t tie to anything before or after.
@agupta20854@Tonysmarkettips Huh?
No, it’s not an “art.” There are appropriate ways to deal with medical problems, it’s not dealer’s choice.
A blood clot isn’t something to mess around with. I’ve had one as has my wife. Her’s was worse than mine but we both required medication and rest.
