Florida State never looked good, people just thought they were because they beat Bama. Then they played 2 cupcakes before losing 4 in a row. Florida was 1-3 when they beat Texas. Texas and Bama are the only 2 teams in the playoff discussion that lost to teams under .500. The SEC is going to whine every year about how tough their schedule is but just like Bama losing to Vandy and Oklahoma last year it's them losing to bad teams that's going to keep some of their mediocre teams out.

Caleb in my opinion is clearly the guy and also still has a bunch of work to do which should be the norm given he’s a 2nd year qb working his 1st year with a new coach. I Feel like there’s so many wild opinions on him out there either way but the reality is he’s solid already with a lot of things he needs to get better at and has a lot of room to improve in with his talent.

Shirtless Ben Johnson = Auto Super Bowl. Congrats Bears fans!

Friday's obviously an intriguing game. I honestly don't think anyone is that good outside of the Rams right now and the vibes in Chicago at the moment are a hell of a lot better than they are in Philly. I'm not necessarily saying I'd bet on the Bears but I like their chances more than the oddsmakers do.

Is there a forced retired list? Like Getz could be like f*** you, you’re retiring now!

Was just at the Rangers park in July for a wrestling show and they have literally the same ballpark village setup as the Cardinals.

I'm not middle aged, I'm median aged! At least that's what I'm going to start telling people now.

This was the one deal on paper that most seemed to agree looked pretty fair and so far it’s working out that way.

Dude has been given 8000 chances though.

They're all insanely good athletes. It's not going to be everyone's cup of tea and that's absolutely fine but it's super weird that there's actually people complaining about what they're doing.

Hard to not have all the feels seeing Mark throw to AJ again. Super cool!

Good trade for the Sox on paper and Slater might be a useful piece for the Yankees down the stretch. Seems pretty simple. 🤷‍♂️

What does Shane have to do to join the ranks of the all caps?

Got to see my first summer league games live this year(we saw about 5) and it's a great time if you're a hoops junkie. GA for the days so you can watch as many games as you want, you'll run into a bunch of players if you enjoy that kind of stuff. The gym the Bulls played in on Friday felt like a high school gym so the atmosphere was actually pretty cool. Fun stuff.

One of my buddy's(Cardinals fan) watched that game with Closed Captioning on and thought it was the funniest thing ever when the last out was recorded cause he just saw... YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES

Same here. Unfortunately I lost it at some point but he was one of 3 customs I had. RIP Bobby and thank you so much for 05!

So here’s my issue with this: there were some young positional players named earlier in this thread that are positives but are they positives just cause we can’t write them off as busts yet? Like Vargas had one great month and has been super meh again, I like Meidroth but he’s been extremely ok, Teel has been ok. Like, I guess it’s cool cause they don’t suck yet but there’s not a young positional player on the roster that I’m sure is a starter going forward. Just the positivity for some of these guys cause they don’t absolutely suck yet seems odd. But baby steps I guess or something.

Oh this is way too high of a percentage.

I'm not saying he wasn't lying, he absolutely could be lying. It's just something I could absolutely see an immature 22 year old saying.

I mean it definitely sounds like something a 22 year old would say. Kid's an idiot either way and I'm happy the Sox and MLB cleaned up the mess right away. Who the hell knows what the kid's intention actually was but I'm happy the Sox took swift action here.

Madrigal has a higher career ops than him. That makes me happy.

When I saw on the home screen "Sox may be calling up Jake P" I was really hoping Peavy was making a comeback. Too bad.

At least I can still make the trip to Milwaukee to watch him play if I want to!

@Brian put me onto this one. It really is great.

Vaughn at this point has a track record of being bad, 1 or 2 decent months isn't going to change a team's mind. It's not like he's Robert who at least has had some high level success here. In the end, I highly doubt Elko is ever a good major leaguer but we already know that AV isn't one and it just makes 0 sense to send Elko back down.
