I definitely wouldn't mind seeing Harden get some more playing time especially if Stanfield is still hurt. Could see him getting a start tomorrow but I also haven't really kept up with Stanfield's injury so idk what that situation looks like.

It's legitimately a case of deal with them over there before we have to deal with it in full here.

That line of thinking was just empty rhetoric when it came to Iraq, but when the Iranian Republic is the #1 state sponsor of terrorism around the globe, with proxies in practically every nation on the planet, it's finally true.

This is still a concern of mine. Was thinking about starting a thread to ask this question but with the wide open borders we had during Biden and the millions of people that came across them I feel like we should be at least a little worried about some terror cell carrying out some act on American soil.

Is that a legit concern or am I just paranoid?

This shite is annoying. I've seen way more post telling people to calm down, or midweek games don't matter, or calling out people for "melting" over one loss than I have seen anyone actually worried or melting about last night.....its honestly worse.

These type of post are so dumb. It's a sports forum, people come here to express opinions and discuss the team and yes the players. Genuinely what's the point of this comment?

I agree some parents go overboard with it. My sons only have 2 bats at any given time. And I try to keep them under $400. There definitely should be some kind of tax credit, even it’s just to claim 1 bat per kid per year or something like that.

I really hope this is a troll post

I think parents need to stop spending money on shite their kid doesn't need. I see kids wearing sliding mitts, leg/elbow guards, expensive sunglasses, multiple pairs of batting gloves while using a $500 bat and $300 glove and wearing an overpriced sweatshirt designed to look like an ice cream cone.....they don't need any of that shite.

Kinda fun story...when I was a kid I caught a foul ball. Was sitting near the dugout. Dirks waved to me with a pen in his, tossed him the ball thinking he was going to autograph it. He drew a smiley face on it and tossed it back lol.

One of the most annoying things about this weekend was the fact that there were no graphics for anything. No player stats, no pitch velocity, hell I don't think they even had graphic that showed the players heigh/weight/position/hometown.

I get these are small things but they are nice to have and add to the presentation.

I would tell him that if he wants to the help the game of college baseball continue to grow and gain viewers he'd broadcast these games for free. It's early season right after NFL/College Football and before March Madness and MLB. Outside the Olympics this year there's not much sports on TV. You have good teams going up against other good teams they wouldn't normally play in the regular season. It's the perfect opportunity to get college baseball some exposure but he locks it behind a paywall, which is sad.
