Get ready to see this happen all over the sport. If it’s only about how many wins ya have and not who you’re playing and where you’re playing you’re gonna see every AD make these same moves. Kiss meaningful non conference games in late August and early September goodbye. Cupcakes moving forward till teams get to conference play.

THANK YOU!!!!! Where did the athletic ability go? Clutch hitting in the 8th and 9th inning? Starting pitching that goes 8 or 9 innings? Base stealing-hell just good base running and SPEED?!? Sac bunts-moving runners over late in a game? Where’s Tony Gwynn? Rod Carew? Wade Boggs? Ichiro? Those guys wouldn’t exist in today’s ridiculous HR or K “launch angle” game! The game has been dying with the youth of America for YEARS and now is losing the core fanbase as well with this ridiculous product we’ve had to digest for the last 7-10 years. Bring back Small Ball and athleticism…this shit dreadful!!!

How is this celebrated?!? What the hell is wrong with people?! Where are the coaches? Umpires? What parent in the right mind wouldn’t drag their son off the field if he did that? Pathetic!!

Again rookie question. All these world class athletes I’ve been watching. How do I continue to watch these guys when they go back to their club teams-Now that I’ve seen them I want to keep watching them-I’m sure this sounds ridiculous but how do you watch these guys on their club teams when you live in the US? Are all these great players in the same league? When is their season? And how do you buy a package to keep watchin these ballers? And are the crowds like this for club matches or just the WC? The energy is what really draws me in (along with the crazy skill). And lastly how do I find a team to follow? Other than the obvious guys like Messi/Renaldo-Mbappé the other guy I love is #2 on Morocco Hakimi. Who is his club team? Maybe that’s my team…he might be my favorite guy I’ve watched the entire tournament. I’m sorry I’m clueless to all this-just completely uncharted waters for me but I’m hooked and am gonna want more when this is over in a few weeks.

Thank goodness. Miami players too good to be wearin those baggy ass pants!!! Great news for the Canes!

Bro. After 13 STRAIGHT years of this bullshit you need to realize you’re pissin into the wind. It will not change. The Reds baseball season is mid February to early to mid May. Thats it. This season was over weeks ago. I feel bad for you with all these tweets. Go watch some soccer. Get some preseason football magazines. Go on a summer trip. Anything but deal with this nonsense on a daily basis. It’s over. Time to move on.

So true. Great to have the CFP obviously as a goal but the season isn’t over if that’s out of reach. People that view it this way aren’t being realistic or fair to the players or coaches. For over 100 years teams would go 9-3 or 10-2 and have a New Years Bowl game and celebrate a great accomplishment. I get the 12 team playoff has changed that POV for many but if you finish 10-3 and finish 13th in the country is the season a failure? Again the CFP should be the goal but let these teams compete and fight their asses off and see where you are at the end of the year!

Haha! No man it’s not-but it looks real! Peter would have loved that game though. All timer!!

So true Kenny.
