Toronto got within one out of beating them and there are only five franchises that earn significantly less than them. The issue is not the dodgers it's competitive balance, if teams actually tried to get free agents the dodgers would regress to the mean.

Until teams spend their revenue on payroll, it's not the dodgers fault they sign all the free agents twinstrivia.com/2025/04/05/m...

And yet they spend less as a percentage of their profits on players than the dodgers. I don't want to hear any complaining until everyone spends more than half their revenue twinstrivia.com/2025/04/05/m...

She did a lot of good work given who she works for... That's way more transparency than I would expect from that station. That's a hate the game kind of moment

Also, his choices over the course of the game were. It's hard to not panic when you're down 21-3 and you had three failed fourth down calls. That he managed to be patient enough to come back and kept Caleb from completely losing it kinda supports that of the two coaches out there he was the one

I love this! Gotta play four quarters before the story is over. I didn't think the bears were going to win right up until Packers decided to kick the field goal

My guys, you can question his decision right there, but he took a team that won an average of 4 game for the last 5 years and managed to win the division despite having no defense and a mid QB. Given how many other coaches in that division get called "genius" *cough cough*

While you are probably correct, do you remember the last three world cup hosts? Qatar, Russia and Brazil. We're pretty fucked right now, but let's not pretend FIFA cares.

It was the goal line fade of 35 yard attempts. Where's the hook and ladder at the 10?? That would have had the juice

You do remember when they had Ben Johnson the last three years right? McDaniel is also known as a rerun expert and his work with Tua had very mixed results. I think the Lions could scored 40 points a game with him, but not sure goff would be the engine and not sure how it would change the narrative

I love the idea that the international community has such high integrity, but like China, most of Africa, a solid 3/4th of the middle east along with half of Europe and South America countries have leaders that aspire to this level of blatant repression of their population. Everyone sucks

Watching this feels like watching a game from 15 years ago, neither coach or staff seem to have any interesting ideas, might be time for both coaches to go

I feel like I read once that the total amount of food stamp fraud per year was less than the cost of maintaining an aircraft carrier for a day. Like just leave it in port for a single day and you pay for all the food stamps that anyone ever tries to defraud that year

Point to the moment during the last 20 years we weren't in conflict. We only stopped the Afghanistan war like 6 years ago
