I wonder if that's going to start an international incident with him mentioning Taiwan?

Funny thing about soccer - I love the game.  Played it since I was a kid.  Usually can't stand to watch it on TV - the way the dudes flail around and dive and fake injury every time they get touched is ridiculous.

Soccer is extremely dull to watch it really is. I watch very little these days. I don't know how people watch multiple games a week.

Soccer is huge every 4 years when the World Cup happens, everyone is a soccer fan.  The day after, nobody cares.

It's just giving another opportunity for the MLS to be put on front and center as baseball is on strike.

MLB isn’t on their knees in front of Xi. It’s different than basketball.

As someone who has loved baseball my entire life, I don’t think I can watch artificial DH-style ball for an entire season. I’m definitely going to watch less games.

I actually liked the play-in game. It gave the better team the advantage they earned throughout the course of the season. I’ve already come to terms with the fact it will be gone.

Making the shift illegal is an embarrassment. Are they going to draw stupid lines on the field?

Interesting on the DH. I overall oppose the DH. However, the fact that the AL already does it anyway, kind of makes me want them to just do it in the NL too. I think it's stupid to have it in one and not the other. 

Agree on the shift restrictions, will be interesting to see how it is enforced. Seems pretty stupid.

Probably have it that no more than 4 defenders can be on either side of 2nd base at any given time...  Basically only the center fielder can play either side of second base pre pitch? Who knows.

Go Pirates!

I would make fun of you for being a Pirates fan but I think they made the playoffs more recent than the Phillies. :mellow2:

Free Agency to start immediately.   Holy ish!   I’m excited.  

Typical front running Pittsburgh fan.  In all sports.  

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just wait until Crosby retires and I'm out on the Penguins!

Do we have any idea what number the Phillies will be realistically spending to fill out the roster now?

MLBPA Exec Board voted this down.  And the rest of the players approved it.  That says a lot.  

Not surprising. I'm guessing the Exec board is either all or mainly Boras clients.

Universal DH - don’t like it. 
12 team playoff- don’t care for it.

Why don’t you just list the things you DO like - it’ll take you a lot less time to write :P

You mean like the banning of the shift and larger base pads like I posted about in here the other day? 

 

You know what would take less time?  Putting people on ignore....since you can't handle some opinions.  

What's up with the larger bases? I haven't even heard of it. How much bigger?
