Surgery Today

Got some sympathy pain for you this week. Gout decided to attack my right ankle. Three days of acute pain and unable to walk anywhere. Meds finally won yesterday and I’m back at it. Hope your healing is on the fast track because I think we are bringing back the Bob and Weaver back this week!

Bonds to get a statue at Oracle

The steroid era tainted the MLB. But if guys don't come clean you can't prove they were juiced. At least beyond any reasonable doubt. So the records will stand. But is it fair to todays players who will never reach some of those records because they aren't getting help from steroids?

How do you know these records will stand forever? People thought Babe Ruth's homerun record would never be broken, then Hank Aarons came along then Barry Bonds..... many thought Ty Cobbs hitting streak would never be broken...... many thought Don Drysdale's consecutive inning streak would never be broken and along came Orel Hershiser....... and still nobody has hit .400 since Ted Williams, so can we assume Ted was on some sort of PED?

As for fair???? Life is far from fair and especially in sports where fairness is low on the totem pole.... Some athletes are just bigger, faster, quicker and manage to stay healthier than other athletes.

Those pussy BBWAA members never played pro sports and probably not even college sports and have zero clue having to play 160 games in a six month span..... fuck those nerds

LEGEND My Dog ROCKS!

I found that to be heartwarming. Releasing Roxy was an act of love, not a sign of weakness. Fourteen years is a lifetime of love and loyal companionship that you can cherish forever. I have had a similar situation in my life, and it certainly alters the pattern of your days for a while. It hurts, because they are family. They were steadfast and unwavering. You offered her all of the comforts, safety, and peace we can hope for at the end - and it is a dogs wish! Thank you for sharing your story regarding Roxy - it reminds us all to hold our dogs close while we can.

2025 Atlanta Falcons Watch Thread (Draft Pick)

If Stafford is playing again, do the Rams again swap for a future #1?

The Rams have to be prepared for his retirement. They also need to have him play as long as possible.
If the Rams aren't going QB in round 1, I can see a trade down with the Atlanta pick to get a later 1st and a future #1. It all depends on how high that pick ends up being.

For example, if the pick was #12, that equates to #21 + future 1st if a team is looking to move up for a blue chip difference maker.

OFFICIAL 2025 NFL News: Trades, cuts, free agency, and more

WTF. Philly just drafted 2 fucking corners in the first and second (?) rounds last year. Are they sucking or injured or what
They are both terrific young DBs but beyond those two, Philadelphia doesn't have much at Cornerback.

Quinyon Mitchell is one of the best young cornerbacks in the NFL; and, pretty soon, the word "young" will be removed from that statement. Cooper DeJean was one of the stars in the Super Bowl, and has generally filled a versatile Nickel-back role (not unlike how the Rams use Quentin Lake).

After those two, Philadelphia needs some help. Veteran Adoree' Jackson was the starter opposite Mitchell but was taking a beating, and is currently out with a concussion. Kelee Ringo was well regarded coming-out of Georgia but hasn't shown much.

Book recommendations

How about a podcast recommendation instead. I've been reading some history these last few years but I was turned onto by listening to Dan Carlin Hardcore History podcasts.

https://www.dancarlin.com/hardcore-history-series/

Truly great stuff. Dan has amazing way of relating history that really gives you the full flavor of the times. His older stuff is not available on the website for free, but is available to purchase for a few bucks. He did a 4 or 5 part series on Rome that must be 20 hours worth of podcast. Then another 3 on the Punic wars that was probably another 10 hours.

The ones currently on the website are 6 podcasts on WWI which are amazing and three parts on the Persian empire. Plus a few others.

I am a huge Dan Carlin fan. Huge.
I have a couple hundred audiobooks downloaded, over 90% is history or biography. And every HH episode. I travel a lot for work, and after working all day in a loud music environment, I need something more chill to listen to but I still need it to be compelling and engaging. When I can get all that and come away more knowledgeable while I'm at it? I'm in!

The most dominant athlete in the world

I think this might have to be re-named "The Shohei Ohtani" thread....
This guy is just doing shit that's unimaginable
9 times on base yesterday? Good grief

Easily. Even Robin Williams might be impressed with Ohtani. He's doing things at a level that hasn't been seen since Babe Ruth played, possibly exceeding that, considering his overall athletic profile (power, speed, average, and oh, yeah, he pitches better than most pitchers, too).

M-I-Z! F - K - U!

That was quite the double whammy. Awful fourth down call that resulted in your QB being out for the year. Should have just trusted Ahmad Hardy to get the yard.

Agreed. You've ridden Hardy at the start of the year, he performs at a Heisman level, and then you suddenly stop what's working. It boggles my fucking mind that they have arguably one of the top five running backs in the nation and don't use him on fourth and one near the goalline.

I thought your true freshman played very well considering the circumstances. The defense played well too with all the Vandy hype. It sucks to lose your starting QB, IMO, Missouri wins if that does not happen.

Zollers is technically our third-string quarterback; he only became the backup after Sam Horn went down in the first game (along with our starting kicker). Pribula was honestly playing like shit for the vast majority of the season (threw so many awful picks), but that doesn't mean that you throw a true freshman to the wolves. And Zollers had injury concerns in his senior year in high school, so that makes it doubly-scary.
