If the pro sports leagues don’t even do that, you’re right, we’ll never see that in college.

Even if we protest nationally, we’d need a big dog standing with us otherwise we’ll just get laughed out of the room and fined.

The head NFL official and the NBA officials answer questions from a pool reporter after every game, I believe. I think the NBA even has a monitor for the officials to use to explain the calls.

The NFL this year is dealing with some inconsistent officiating, and Adam Schefter has reported that they are monitoring some crews and are considering private discipline.

He was a big hire at the time. Doesn’t always work out. We even wanted to interview him.

But they will keep looking until they get it right. They don’t settle for less than winning and fire coaches quicker than we do.

How was Napier a big hire? Totally unproven in a power 5 conference and it's playing out like that was a bad choice. I seriously doubt he was their first choice and probably not even in the top 3.

I’m surprised the NFL didn’t mandate some sort of discipline system after the replacement ref debacle.

I'm on page 2663 so pardon me if already covered. I grew up on packaged cool-aid, canned tuna, hamburger and tuna helper, frozen OJ, Yoo-hoo, Hungry Man dinners, crystal light powder, spaghetti-o's, chunky soup (if we were lucky), and dining out at the local chinese/italian/polish restaurant.

Kool-Aid isn't about race. It's about social economic situation. Someday I hope those that feel disenfranchised have better parent's to teach them that their situation is temporary. Their projection is related to their ability to work, learn, adapt. Not blame.

Colorado sucks. Deion sucks. Those kids are being played and if they spoke to me for 1 hour, they would know that i didn't have it good, but have come good in life, family, and career.

😂😂😂😂.....I wish, it's crazy cause it's actually Cam's cousin. She asked could we go but we've already paid for what she wanted to do so 🤷🏾‍♂️. But I told her next year let's celebrate with Cam and she said ok lol

Deion is selling the same stuff so many politicians, hucksters, and self help gurus sell - a cause, a mantra, an image. He could be Charlie Sheen pimping tiger blood flavored Kool-aid and it would be the same story. Or Andrew Tate telling you to kickbox your problems away. Or Wranglerstar telling you to build your own landmines to keep out your poorly equipped single mother and her government.

Their motto is: you are different, you are special, you are like me, we are winners, they don't get it.....

They all end the same. Many of us don't get it because we can't be hypnotized. Or because we had fathers that made us fresh squeezed lemonade I guess.

I plan to drink some purple Kool-Aid, eat some jiffy-pop popcorn and watch the show.

I know that. Just digging at the dodgers fans here

It sucks. My dad was a die hard angels fan when I was a kid. For obvious reasons he doesn’t follow them as closely anymore. My grandfather, his dad, was a die hard Braves fan.

Since they never really played each other, I just decided to be a fan of both. I was also a Yomiuri Giants fan for the NPB since MLB Power Pros was canceled, so I got the Japanese league version imported afterwards and have played it ever since… and followed the NPB as a result.

Then shohei came along for Nippon-Ham. I switched teams, and have been following his career ever since and can honestly say he’s my favorite player ever.





And he chooses the ****ing dodgers of all teams.


Fun fact, shohei won the 2016 Japan Series with Nippon-Ham. They played the Toyo Carp, which had Anthony Bass on the team… most should know who that guy is for his famously ridiculous falling out with the Blue Jays. Ohtani didn’t have any HR, but did drive in a game winning RBI in one of the games. He was 0-1 on the mound in the series.

Also, to any MLB the Show players.. it’s worth getting Pro Yakyuu Spirits, or PawaPuro if you liked Power Pros on the Wii. You can make a Japanese PlayStation account or import a physical copy pretty easily.

I determined that was a dead end street earlier today.
