I mean let’s be honest, Texas and Arizona isn’t going to be a ratings bonanza. Introducing Arizonas GM Mike Hazen. When the D-Backs job opened up he jumped ship and headed across the country. Arizona stayed competitive for a bit after that until 2021 came around. Hazen had to take a leave of absence mid-season because of a developing family situation. Things didn’t get a whole lot better in 2022, in fact they got worse for Mike....

Look, Im a pessimist by nature. I also view myself as a realist and relatively objective with my favorite teams. As the playoffs wore on, I needed to counterbalance Greenies optimism about the teams flaws. Unfortunately, I was more right than not about my roster assessment. So, more of the same for the new season? Out was Celtics lifer and former DPOY Marcus Smart. Out was fan-favorite Rob Williams. Out was 6th Man of the Year Malcolm Brogdon....

Jake Marisnick and Andrew Benintendi just keep winning. They faced the 2nd place squad managed by Mike Napoli going into this week and took care of business. They’re a team to watch going into the 2nd half of the season. Trout rolled even with Ja’Marr Chase and Adam Thielen on a bye. Darren Waller also had a big coming out party and Trout’s team continues to dominate. Speaking of dominate, don’t sleep on Dave Portnoy!...

These waves are also so long that can only be detected by space-based observatories spanning millions of kilometres. LISA will sit in a heliocentric orbit at a whopping 50 million kilometres away from Earth. It will consist of three individual spacecraft, with a distance of about 2....

It makes no sense. The Steelers have one of the worst offenses I’ve seen. I don’t know how it’s possible but the Steelers are legit. Dallas Cowboys Bye Week. Seattle Seahawks Are the Seahawks a Super Bowl dark horse? Fuck it, at +3500?? The Seahawks are the team that division winners don’t want to play in the wild card. Detroit Lions Get fucking shit on! I finally won a bet where I bet against the Detroit Lions....

It felt a little like this play from 22 years ago. Tough to come back from that. That moment is when the Yankees dynasty (1996-2001) ended. They did go back to another World Series in 2003 and lost to the Marlins. But that always felt like a footnote, even in the moment.

Atlantic Division The Atlantic Division has a clear favorite in the Celtics, but dont sleep on the Knicks. The Celtics have continuity with their star players, but they dont fit as a traditional 1-2 punch. Without Smart acting as the glue, the Celtics must find a new identity. With less depth and interior defense, the Celtics will heavily depend on their stars staying healthy....
