I am not even gonna talk about the Yankee game RN. Stinking it up again in the Bronx. Congrats Reds. So I will just post about something else.

Home Run Derby participants thus far:

Pete Alonso

Ronald Acuña

Albert Pujols

Juan Soto

Julio Rodriguez

Kyle Schwarber

Blue Jays fire Montoyo.

Congrats Reds. Shame on the Yankees. They lost their mojo since Friday.

Gotta add Robinson Cano in this thread again. This time as a Padre.

 

Rays have had many winning seasons and 2 pennants since getting rid of the Devil in their name.

Merely speculation talk, but it'll be interesting to see what Fox does with their next graphics package for the NFL and subsequently college football. I'm almost certain the logos will change for both, likely recoloring this, for example...

...to a modern version of the red/white/blue color scheme from the 90s logo (see the Fox-boro post above). USFL, MLB, and college hoops have logos all on a white background, save the exceptions made for special events like the MLB postseason.

All of the Summerall-Madden seasons and the 1st year of the Joe Buck era had the red white and blue color scheme. It would be intresting to see the NFL on FOX go back to that color scheme in the 1st year of the Burkhardt era.

How the tables have turned. 

If a certain rumor about Miami, Florida State, Clemson and North Carolina going to the SEC is true, we can add this logo too.

Yeah... for now....

Time for schools like Cal Lutheran, Chapman University, Claremont-Mudd-Scripps, University of La Verne, Occidental College, Pomona-Pitzer, University of the Redlands, and Whittier College to move up to Division 1 and bring back Pac 12 football to the Los Angeles area!

OFFICIAL! OH. MY. GOD.

Rumored for a while but the fact that it is closed to finalized like *snap* that?

Wow.

I'm anxious to see where this goes, because I read some pretty firm denials of this story earlier today.

 

Get your popcorn, folks!

Now the 2nd craziest story in sports in Los Angeles. (Cough USC cough UCLA Sneeze Big 10)

Wow, one of the scummiest things I've ever heard an agent do. 

Apparently Freeman is only in LA  because his :censored:head agent never told him that the Braves made a final offer he would have taken. 

And YIKES. I would be pissed too if I was in Freeman's shoes. He genuinely loved Atlanta.

Mark Appel, former #1 overall pick, finally made his debut after 9 years. Happy for him.

They've in fact returned to prominence on the Dodger Stadium scoreboards.

 

Now Dodgers fans hope these guys make the Dodger Dogs again.

It's a party out west!!!! Rams, Warriors & Avalanche. 

Warriors are the only team to defeat a Kroenke owned team in the playoffs this calendar year.

The Kroenke strategy is working so far.

Not bad. Upgrade

Fox bringing back the USFL another year! This could be it for the Spring football curse, barring another disease creating another global pandemic or COVID getting strong again.
