SLACKISH REACTION: Oh great, Steve Cohen is in the news again. The short version is he wants SNY and the team and might just right a big check and doesn’t wanna get involved with the Wilpons. Whatever. I personally keep hearing that MLB might not approve him anyway…but I am very bored with the subject.
I’m also particularly not interested in the “the union visited and Michael Conforto talked tough” storyline. Look, I hope this whole thing goes nuclear and the entire 2021 season gets canceled. Whatever.
Boy, what kind of blog is this if I am not interested in any of the topics and I want the sport to shut down. Lol. What has this team and sport done to me?
A 27 to nothing XFL game drew 2,127,000 viewers last weekend. An Astros-Rays game in the ALDS drew 958,000.
I heard Bill Simmons talking about the idea of the NBA starting around Christmas (or Thanksgiving) and pushing their playoffs into July and August. Now that’s probably an awesome idea and would really take away what little spotlight baseball gets. As I like chaos, I am in favor of this move. Also would get the NBA out of the NFL’s shadow.
Might make sense for the NBA to try to grab Black Friday which I think is some super-cool real estate to be had. Maybe you make that NBA Opening Day and stack 4 big time games on TV.
IF MATT HARVEY DID THIS: The Big Zero gave his teammates some attire from his apparel line. Now imagine Matt Harvey showed up and was like, “Hey guys, I brought you all some TDK swag.” He’d get destroyed. The Big Zero is going to be a problem (as is Vulgar Pete). I know these aren’t popular opinions but I don’t care and I am always right. You’ll come around. Like you did on Matt, who you didn’t want to trade for Mookie Betts.
