Red Comet

I think the typical result for a team featured on Hard Knocks is more likely. As in, I think this Jets team is going to be the biggest bust of an opening act Broadway has seen since Turn Off The Dark.

USFL Championship Game drew 1,157,000 viewers.

From MLE to TLC: How Food Devoured Me by Fatass McGee seems like an appropriate title for a hypothetical tell-all.

Yeah, and in an ideal scenario, the company in question would adapt to the times, the guys in charge would tighten their belts too after making a bunch of people unemployed before a holiday and, oh yeah, not be a bunch of out of touch dolts. This is clearly not the case with ESPN.

ESPN, or the TV channel anyways, is obsolete now that the average person can access sports highlights anytime and anywhere in the palm of their hand. It’s not the era where a person would have to wait until :28 or :58 of the hour to get scores and stats but ESPN’s business model hasn’t caught up. Does it suck that a lot of people lost their job? Yeah, it does. But it’s like amputating a rotting leg to save the rest of the body. Sometimes sacrifices have to be made to preserve the whole. Of course, this would also assume that whatever caused the rot in the first place is stopped and the course is changed. Otherwise? A bunch of people just lost their job for nothing and that’s what I think will wind up being the case.

Moving the team to a cow pasture like Charlie O’Finley threatened to do with the A’s would be a better strategy than the status quo for the Yotes.

A spring football league not thinking beyond this year is something I did not see coming at all.

They’re pretty fly for White guys.

That's the first problem. You're assuming anyone involved in this saga is capable of shame.

I’m definitely going to need to make a road trip Wait: “Burgess says he’s lived in the Springfield area his entire life and believes it is the best place to live, work and play. Burgess also believes his model of arena football will prevail due to one certain characteristic. ‘We’ve got good Christian values to keep us going,’ he said.” I’m going, but I’m holding onto my wallet and never allowing it to leave my grip. Also have to wonder if the fish mascot is representing more than just the fishing culture there. It’s like my Dad always told me “Never deal with businesses that talk about how Christian they are because they always hide behind the fish when things go south”. Just to clarify, I’m not some unwashed fedoratipping bunghole with hairy sequoias sprouting from my neck ranting about “Sky Daddies”, I do believe in God. I just don’t like people trying to leverage my values for personal gain.

So instead of turning left for hours, the speedway will now get a team going nowhere for hours.

They knew they were going to lose millions. They’d be stupid if they didn’t. Every indication is that there will be a 2024 season barring some kind of black swan event bankrupting the backers.

No one wants to watch a sport if there is a widespread (i.e. not some low-budget horsehockey YouTube video about how the NFL is rigged) perception that the players are on the take. They get money from the league from ludomaniacs via revenue sharing as it is so trying to win money from gambling is like dipping into the cookie jar after eating a whole pack of Oreos. Plus, you don't make examples of players because you think you can catch everyone. You make examples out of players so that the rest understand that if they get caught there WILL be punishment. It's not the harshness of punishment that's a deterrent. It's the certainty of it.

Just means that he’s a pervert and the most unbelievable part about his whole story is that he’d wait 3 hours for a cupcake. Then again, maybe we should have seen perversion coming from a guy who named his handle after a sex act and his weight.

Did Gary Bettman kill a hooker in Arizona? That’s the only explanation I have for why he’s kept the team there because anyone doing it for pride would’ve checked out before a quarter century hit.

I'm pretty sure this is nothing, but IMO, an NHL team has a better shot at long-term success than an NBA team does. If the NBA team sucks, people can go to Lawrence, Manhattan or Columbia to watch good basketball. Not so much with an NHL team. Plus, there's the whole in-state rivalry with St. Louis but, again, I'm pretty sure that Patrick Mahomes is :censored:posting. Also, let me highlight this

I guess that’s why they play the game. Either way, really looking forward to it.

They’ve gotten good but they’re not that good. I may eat my words if they win but as of right now, I’d take the Chiefs by 10-14.

The DC Offenders?

1.35 million isn't too bad in 2023 all things considered.

But at the end of the day, credit is due to @Ferdinand Cesarano. He believed in Luis Perez and the Renegades when no one else did. If anyone has the right to say that they totally saw this coming, he does.

More than I thought would be there. Still should have it at the team with the better record's home stadium IMO. Only the NFL can get away with having their championship at a neutral site. Luis Perez might wind up getting an NFL roster spot from this. Good for him.

The key is to be consistently successful, not purge the team the moment the World Series trophy is set down.

They Bare Bears Still, can't believe that the Lions are going to be the sacrifice team the Chiefs open the season against.
