I liked my tweet saying Rousey's next fight will be broadcast on Vine even though it only got like 4 likes.
  6:14pm
Ralphine:

That last Rousey fight was RIGGED. Almost none of Rousey's punches landed, and the ones that did were love taps.

Bud Selig logic - Houston must switch leagues after 50 years of being in the National League.

But Milwaukee is a "National League" town because they had the Braves there for 13 years and the Brewers in the National League for 15 years. It's stupid and wrong.

Flores could hit a thousand home runs and he'll still be a crybaby to me.
Avatar ♥ 6:23pm
Danne D:

From NPR article when Astros switch was announced:
"The move of the Astros is part of a deal involving a group lead by businessman Jim Crane's to purchase the team. The group had agreed to buy the team for $680 million, but was given a $70 million price cut in exchange for agreeing to switch leagues because of the move's potential negative effect on the Astros TV ratings."

Total Crap.

The Mets should give Flores a week off on paid leave for 'emotional duress', so he can somehow come to grips with the fact that he is a highly paid athlete who will retire relatively young with a nice pension for life.

That's the trouble w the ridiculously many playoffs in sports now: You can beat a team twice & still have to play off vs. them. Why play the season?

I really enjoy keeping track of small colleges and their mascots. Strange, but I've been doing unconsciously doing it for years.

I don't grieve the demise of Hitchbot. It traveled plenty, made the point, so it was time for its final act. What's more appropriate than getting slashed to pieces in Phila., just like a real hitchhiker? It was performance art--both its hitchhiking & its destruction.

But, Ralphine, why is there $ in bogus playoffs? Are the fans that stupid?
  6:49pm
Ralphine:

I think you know the answer to that last question.
  6:50pm
Listener Robert:

Then the NHL fans are the dumbest, because AFAICT they started the trend of playing a whole season to knock out just 1/3 of the teams before the playoffs.

And the bizarre thing was, at that time, the players played the Stanley Cup playoffs for fucking FREE! They just got their salary, whether they were in the playoffs or not. So THEY weren't cashing in on what the teams were raking.
