QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Oct 4, 2016 -> 09:35 PM) I am not much of a hockey fan. I am getting some hockey tickets for a friend as a gift and I want to get some opinions on where people would prefer to sit. Would you rather sit in the second row rinkside in a corner or center ice about 12 row back? His team would defend twice on the corner side. Best seats in the house right there. Just high enough so the players don't block your view of the rest of the ice.

If you are set on saving Britton, why not use Dylan Bundy instead of Ubaldo? Overall massive fail by Buck. Unless Britton got hurt in warmups

Buck seems like the type of guy who would save Britton until they had a lead, even if it went 16 or 17 innings.

How is he not bringing Britton here with the Blue Jays best 3 hitters up?

This Orioles bullpen is nasty and that's before you even get to Britton

QUOTE (Elgin Slim @ Oct 4, 2016 -> 09:26 PM) Toronto fans are pretty unruly. If you know who he is, someone threw a banana at Wayne Simmonds during a Leafs-Flyers game, and there were multiple Leafs fans who threw waffles on the ice to voice their displeasure with management. Vancouver and Montreal hockey fans re well known to riot after losing big games as well. Leafs fans probably would but they would have to play in a big game first.

QUOTE (buhbuhburrrrlz @ Oct 4, 2016 -> 09:18 PM) classy Toronto fan trying to interfere with the game Unbelievable. It was ridiculous when they were doing it after a bad call. It's another to try to hit a player making a catch.

Homers by Joey Bats and Trumbo so far, I imagine many more will be hit tonight.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Oct 3, 2016 -> 09:20 AM) Pulling for the Giants as I believe they have the best chance of knocking off the Cubs since most of the Mets starters are on the DL. I guess we have forgotten, it's an even numbered year!

8:15 Friday night start time for game 1. That will be a highly lubricated crowd in Wrigley, they don't even allow regular season Friday night games there.

I find this crazy, the MLS won't allow teams more than 4 charter flights a season, so the entire team must fly commercial the majority of the year. http://www.latimes.com/sports/soccer/la-sp...snap-story.html

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Oct 3, 2016 -> 08:55 PM) When did Minnesota's D turn into the Seahawks? They look amazing out there. And Beckham Jr. once again being a baby out there. It really seems like the "Must have an elite QB" era is kind of disappearing all of a sudden. Sure, it helps, but look at what the Broncos are doing and now the Vikings. Russel Wilson was great for the Seahawks, but the defense carried that team. Not sure what has changed, it still seems like some of the rules and penalties really favor offenses.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Oct 3, 2016 -> 04:45 PM) Not when Colon would be the Game 1 starter. And Seth Lugo in game 2

Greg, you are gonna love the NBA season

Tillman vs Stroman in the AL matchup. Just a bit less flashy than the NL game.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Oct 3, 2016 -> 04:55 PM) Looks like Hjalmarsson will be suspended the rest of the preseason + 1 regular season game for a hit on Ty Rattie the other night. While Shaw only got preseason games even with his suspension history. That's not very consistent IMO

Because Kenny got Jerry a WS ring, which guarantees lifetime employment.

QUOTE (hi8is @ Oct 2, 2016 -> 04:07 PM) Report just out that the Commissioner offered Boston the option to undo their trade with San Diego in August. Wonder why the same opportunity wasn't afforded to the White Sox regarding Shields. Because Drew Pomerantz has an injury and Shields apparently doesnt. He is just bad.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 2, 2016 -> 04:49 PM) It still bothers me that they're unwilling to go outside and even listen. The Braves just set interviews with like 4 guys, including all their assistant coaches and their interim coach. How do you know 100% certainty that you won't hear a guy come in with a perspective you haven't thought of before? I am good with Renteria but your post is right on .

It was such a fail that the Olympic golf wasn't a team competition. I bet more players would have played. Look how crazy they get for the Ryder Cup where they get paid nothing. Patrick Reed = GOAT
