Can’t start wheeled game 1 cause he would be on short rest. Normal rest would be Sunday. Plus you’d get him game 2 and 5. Really the Phillies just need to split in atlanta. Suarez has been better on the road than at home. 2.75 ERA on the road and 5+ at home. So i trust Suarez in that situation. He tends to show up in bigger games/moments. Nola is pitching game 3. His era is the opposite of Suarez. His is really good at home and bad on the road. 

 

That was why I had Ranger pitching game two ... on the road ... and Nola pitching game three.  I wasn't sure whether Wheeler would be on short rest if he pitched game one.  I was hoping for two games out of both Wheeler and Nola.

Thanks for your input.

i hope they mentioned dodgers fans beating a guy and causing brain damage or the time they stabbed a dude 5 times after they lost the World Series.

Try fbstreams.

I don't use it currently as I have a firestick type program (two different ones actually) on all my devices (both phones, tablet, laptop, all work offices (tvs on all the time, suck it world, I dont care I own the company), home, business partner's home lol).  So I get every game from every sport everywhere all the time.  It is a bit pathological but whatever.  I'm going to see the damn game no matter the F what.  This is what makes me happy.  

I have successfully used viprow.nu  It requires some dilligence to avoid (quickly close) the popups, but I was able to watch the Washington game from start to finish using it on Chrome, and then ChromeCasting the pc screen to my TV.  The only annoyance was that the TV broadcast was about a minute ahead of Merrill and Mike calling the game on SiriusXM.   I would love to find out how to synchronize  them so I can listen to Sirius while I watch the soundless video on the screen.

Would get wheeler twice if you got to a game 5. game 2 is Monday and game 5 is Saturday. Normal rest. the only way you’d get nola pitching 2 times if you did what you said with wheeler on short rest. the issue is you’d be getting nola twice for game 2 and 5 which are both on the road. Unfortunately his road era is 5.43. At home 3.29. 

Report him

Siri overrules Johnson

Siri holding Johnson back? 🤔

Part of me thinks he's just trying to shield his new OC because that call was stupid as hell

Yeah, Corky was a great defensive player but his offense was nonexistent. Fortunately, he had that backcourt and Morse was a great jump shooter. I'll still go with Durrett as the best but that injury ruined him. He was still a good player but a shadow of what he was before that, kind of like Wes Hopkins.

I can generally agree with that assessment.  Corky averaged just under 13 a game in college so "nonexistent" might be too harsh but was no big scorer.

John Lynch when it comes to pass rushers

Wouldn’t surprise me

No surprise from a rag that has a skins reporter as their Eagles reporter.

The offensive play calling has been sus for sure, especially In the red zone and I'm not sure how much is Siri and how much is BJ.

The lack of motion and the offense being so static is weird especially when watching BJ offense at Florida and Utah ran a lot more motion so I'd have to agree that the lack of motion is most likely more due to Siri than it is BJ.

One play that really bugged me in the last gabe other than the above mentioned is the bubble screen out to Smitty in 3rd down in the 4th are, they ultimately got the first down on a really long 4th And 1 but had the personnel grouping been different than maybe the end result of the play is better 

In the past the slot receiver on sk.ilar plays have been what Siri calls the enforcer, which is basically just a big blocking WR there, first it was JJAw then last year Pascal.

On this play against the commanders it was covey, all 165 pounds of him lead blocking fir all 170 pounds of Smitty 🤔

Covey tried to block but he got rag dolled by a much taller heavier corner and the olay hit blown up for a minimal gain 

It's a poor use of personnel and putting players in position to succeed.

Seems there's too much of that going on, like asking goedert to be an outlet receiver or asking Gainwell to be a short yardage back.

Hopefully Siri and BJ can make some adjustments.

Has anyone noticed that the Eagles pro shop has basically no white jerseys? I like to wear the same as the team, but I've been trying to order a white custom jersey with "McNabb" on it (for my deceased dog, not the QB) for a while with no luck. I'm going to have to roll with my white 11 jersey with the nameplate removed for the game this weekend...

Why is it always about race with you.

Corky was surrounded by a core of good offensive players so he didn’t need to be a big scorer. When he was a senior after Bilsky and Wohl had graduated, I believe he put up good numbers. Good enough to get drafted fourth overall by the Suns.

I also remember him hitting a twenty footer at the buzzer against Princeton to send the game into overtime. Penn had trailed by seven with about two and a half minutes to go. Somewhere along the line Wohl had fouled out. And Teddy Manakas missed a free throw in the final seconds to give Penn a chance to tie. And Penn won going away in overtime. I listened to the final minutes on the radio and somehow watched the overtime on the color set in the family room. To this day I don’t understand why I had to resort to listening to the last minutes instead of watching in my parents room. Maybe their set was broken and my sisters were watching on the regular tv. 

No shock

So glad I let my subscription expire. They are straight garbage. 

Lotta out's

Covey will be the interesting one. He'll have to fly across the country tomorrow which I doubt they let happen unless he gets fully cleared some point today, tomorrow morning.

Injury regression was inevitable.

Hope to be in good shape coming out of the bye.

Surprised that Sydney Brown is out.  Was hoping he'd be back.

Once in a while when watching from the office, I put the game on the big screen (duh) and double down and use FBS (or other online stream) on one of the computers. Two weeks ago I did that but used the computer RIGHT UNDER the tv.  I almost threw out my neck because one feed was behind the other by a complete play. So I watched the whole game twice 45 seconds apart.

Middleton has done a good job putting his money where his mouth is. And getting others in there that also want to spend. Also did a good job securing harper when klentak was wanting machado and harper situation felt like it was going off the rails til he stepped in and met with Bryce 

Were he and TEW classmates at Haverford School?

Understood, but numbers are numbers and yards are yards.

BTW, do you have a score prediction for Sunday's game?
