I mean, the Phillies fired Giardi before midseason last year and completely flipped the script and ended up in the World Series, but a wealthy Mets fan still gonna let the Mets Met.

Back to Toro Rosso? I'm curious who they're considering to replace of De Vries. Riccardo's name keeps getting mentioned (by the media, that is) as a potential replacement for Checo, but I think Yuki would be more likely than Daniel at this point in their careers. I don't keep up with F2 enough to know who the up-and-comer of the year is, but I wonder if sitting out the first half of this season has humbled Danny Ric enough that he'd consider taking on a senior role with AlphaTauroRosso.

I don't think he'd be calling a presser to fire Buck. I think he'd would've just done it already.

It happens when you've built a pitching staff where 60% of your starting rotation is closer to AARP-eligibility than the legal drinking age.

All five AL East teams are at least four games over .500 and the very best AL Central team is two games under .500.

Which of us should get the petition going to ban the American League Central from the post-season? Everyone knew that division sucked butts, but geez. They should blast all five teams off into the sun.

I've had that on my Steam wishlist for almost two years now. They've promised that a demo is coming, but if I'm not mistaken, they said the same thing last summer only to change their minds and re-did everything after poor reviews from their beta testers. This time I'm going to have to see it out for the public before getting too excited about it. Nevermind, the demo is out now, so I stand corrected. It's still on my wishlist but I'll be damned if Steam ever let me know the demo is available.

Must be a Canadian thing. It explains why the CFL has bizarre rules as well!

Especially now that the pitch clock has helped make the games go quicker. It's a silly rule to keep around.

The Yanks lose in yet another bullshit extra inning game. The ghost runner rule continues to be the dumbest recent rule change in sports. One hit. Game over. Dumb.

Yankees scored seven runs in a three game series against Boston, but put up six against Mad Max.

Too many fans grew up playing the Show and think sending guys down will automatically gain them attribute points.

So many Yankee fans that think Volpe needs to go down to AAA are the same fans who weren't watching Gleyber Torres suck tremendous butt defensively at shortstop. Anthony Volpe can hit .195 all year long, as long as he remains a solid glove at short, and a threat on the bases, that's all I need from that position.

And that was his third game off the injured listed only to go back on for two more months.

It's called "TNA Mode".

I read the FIA agreed to be a little more lenient in awarding penalty points, so most likely no. Happy for Carlos and Lando. It'd be nice seeing them on the podium tomorrow.

Man can't even like ducks without being harassed by Baltimore fans.

Is the Bunny a wrestler in a bunny suit or that rapper guy? Or both? Or neither?

The graphics look a lot nicer than what I thought they would. I think I had this glitch in my brain that just assumed it'd have N64 graphics... If it really does play like No Mercy, I may never buy another wrestling game again. And I don't even know who 95% of the roster is.

😕

Max on the pole is the status quo, but at least it was in exciting fashion. I don't mind if he even wins tomorrow, as long as it's close and we get some excitement. Him running away and winning by 15+ secs is when it's easy to tune out.

You gave us game one and we turned around and gave you game two. Bats went silent for us tonight though. We have a three game series against Seattle and then a weeklong west coast trip. Ugh.

Unless quite a bit more is added, it's likely going to be a pass for me. I enjoyed the first version, but I'm not going to buy the new one just to manage my pit crew.

Beating the Blue Jays in Toronto never gets old. I hope Bo goes somewhere outside of the AL East (or the Dodgers), because he's fun to watch, but Vlad Jr. is the biggest baby I've seen in baseball in a while.

That seems about right. My youngest loves wrestling games, and has been asking for a new one for a few months, as the last wrestling game I got her was 2k19. I was holding off, hoping to grab this, and when the rumors swirled about it being delayed until 2024, I went ahead and got her 2k23. She's loving it so far, but I'll still maybe get this as a Father's Day gift to myself.
