Lockback posted:uhh certainly makes the story different. If you manage to do "other" things that get you fired from a team that the owners basically couldn't give less of a poo poo about, you have probably done some pretty bad things.

The American Dream posted:That Amazon game is also on wpix in the nyc area. They just simulcast Yankees games to the rest of New York or whatever the territory is. Diehards spend $10,000 a year on streaming services just to watch the Yankees lose in the AL Playoffs for the 15th straight year.

STAC Goat posted:I feel like the doc did a pretty good job explaining why Gladiators is uniquely viable in the 80s and not now. Like they all sit around going “this isn’t safe for people to do, we were horribly hurt and addicted to drugs, this is more dangerous than the NFL” and then they’re all saying “the reboot lacked any punch”. Doing it all 80s would be a mess of liability and bad press. Tuning it down results in bad reactions. Then you have the aspect of the Gladiators being your stars and being eventually in a position to want proper pay.

The average age of an MLS player is about 26 - a bit more than a year per player older than ten years ago but still a year or more per player younger than leagues like the Premier League and La Liga. in terms of the league being a retirement home, in its early days it would usually sign big-name players who were in their mid to late 30s and would play for a year or two and that was it Valderrama was weird in that he decided he liked the league and played until he was in his 40s. That's definitely changed, with big name signings since tending to be a bit closer to an age where they would still theoretically have a few good years left even if they aren't a top-level player anymore. Using the Galaxy as an example, Beckham was 32 when he signed with the and not at the tail end of his career. Robbie Keane was 31-32. Javier Hernandez was 31-32. Jamie Penedo (125+ caps for Panama) was 31-32. Zlatan was 37 when he was signed, but I wouldn't use him as an example or comparison of anything. I mean, he almost scored double-digit goals in Serie A as a 40-year-old. Crazy Ted fucked around with this message at 11:57 on Jun 8, 2023 |

Pat McAfee is a 40-year-old 16-year-old, and him acting like that as a former long-time NFL player is utterly pathetic.

DJExile posted:It also sounds like the relationship was beyond repair with Skip too. I realize plenty of people put up with coworkers they don’t like if the money is good, just look at Adam and Jamie from mythbusters, but I’m not sure Shannon wanted to stay for any money. I could not possibly imagine working with Skip Bayless without wanting to strangle him within 48 hours.

DJExile posted:Yeah I should have clarified but you’re right. They were professionals and got along fine for the sake of the show, but I think a lot of people figured everyone on that show were great friends. I think the build team crew was, but I can absolutely see how Adam and Jamie’s personalities would’ve grated on each other off-camera.

If Social Media posting about Inside The NBA is anything to go by we might have a legit storming of NBA Headquarters at Fifth Avenue if TNT loses out to NBC. At the same time, about 90% of the people saying that they won't miss Inside the NBA at all because they're "arrogant" or don't do any analysis look just about exactly how you think they would.
