    What repercussions would those be? Fan anger? Meh. It will fade with time. Would NYY fans switch to the Mets, Phillies, or another AL team? I sincerely doubt it. Atlanta fans were furious/none too happy when Freddy Freeman wasnt resigned - and that was after he was instrumental in winning the...

    Well, maybe. Time will tell. But certainly the Dawgs are guaranteed nothing. Regardless, a Tech fan posted this earlier today🤪😀 “At noon we can watch Georgia players beat their future employers.”

    No dispute here. Dawgs rule. Georgia and Kirby Smart have had fantastic back to back seasons whatever happens in the playoffs. In the meantime LSU won’t lay down in the SEC championship game. The Dawgs should be highly motivated after last years drubbing in it by Alabama. Next week in state...

    Biggest game of the (regular) season on Saturday. ‘Tween the hedges, Dogs vs. Vols. Both teams 8-0. Essentially #1 vs. #2. Ga favored by 8.5 pts. Should be a heck of a game. Winner probably guaranteed a spot in College playoffs series.

    All Quiet On The Western Front

    A big remembrance from my reading of the book, many years ago, was the soldiers' struggles with viciously aggressive rats. Horrible. Rats were never mentioned in the movie, and barely shown.

    I watched it in German first time, and it was absolutely terrible.

    Of course the whole idea is a bit of a joke. Not meant to be serious. After all correlation does not imply causation. That said, I have no idea how the market or economy performed in 1910, 1911 or 1913

    Then there is this via Bloomberg: Houston and Philadelphia face off in the World Series starting Friday, but keep in mind the Phillies have only won amid economic turmoil: the financial crisis of 2008 and the recession in the early 1980s. Back when the Athletics played in Philadelphia, the...

    "Should have" has nothing to do with it -- to paraphrase Clint (Unforgiven) Personally hated seeing the Braves go down against the Phillies, whom they dominated in the regular season. But if everyone is going to complain when their team loses against an "inferior" opponent, it doesnt work...

    “…. did that well against [the] Braves.” Proper grammar for the win!

    Seriously? SEC schools Alabama, GA and LSU have won five of the last 7 national championships. In fact the SEC has won 12 of the last 16 national championships (since 2006). While Alabama has dominated, that does lessen the opportunities for other SEC schools doesnt it? Of the other 4 National...

    Startling news: Big state schools tend to have better football teams, and lower academic standards, than smaller private universities. That sure is some funny funny stuff about the SEC.... PS: Next thing we'll "learn" that Harvard and Yale are better known for their academics than athletics.

    So, even when the mighty Dodgers lose, at the end of the day they are still the better team. Got it. :rolleyes:

    Given there are 130 NCAA Division 1 football teams, Id say thats a pretty good record. Certainly above average. BTW, how'd that "fraud" of defense (your word) do in the NFL draft? "Georgia sets the NFL draft record with 15 selections after Derion Kendrick and John Fitzpatrick go...

    N.F.L. 21-22 Season

    How bout that UGA Dawg (Stafford)? In fact both teams were helmed by former SEC QBs (Burrows/LSU). Imagine that! Interestingly, Rams Coach McVay has an Atlanta connection. Brookhaven is a mostly wealthy enclave within the city of Atlanta. Distinct from Buckhead. McVay graduated from Marist...
