Homelander is the only thing that would get me invested in a season 2. I was tired of everyone else by the end of it.

I'm on the Newcastle bandwagon because of Miguel Almiron. Don't root for Newcastle. They suck. I hate having to watch them.

Fox Deportes reporting Edinson Cavani is going to Inter Miami when his contract is up at PSG next summer. I'm skeptical.

Josef Martinez, who was questionable with an adductor injury, goes up over a defender and scores for the 10th consecutive game, a new MLS record.

So Chelsea isn't as good without Eden Hazard? I'm kind of surprised by that.

Willems sits back instead of going to get the ball allowing it to be stolen and then leaving one of the best goal scorers in the league wide open in the middle of the pitch. Newcastle is in peak form on match day one.

Lamela steals the ball from Grealish and then his pass ping pongs off two Villa players right to Kane. What rotten luck there even if it felt like a second Spurs goal was coming.

A lot can change obviously, but right now Julio Teheran would be your #2 starter in the playoffs and I don't love that idea.- EPL 2019-20
Norwich earned promotion because of two things: - Teemu Pukki was insane. He had 29 goals and 9 assists last year. That's an obviously not sustainable production level in the Premier League - They were unbelievably clutch. They earned 19 points from the 9 goals they scored in the final quarter hour of games last year. They opted to try and keep the team together that won the Championship instead of trying to spend money and bring in new players. It was a bit of smoke and mirrors beyond Pukki that got them to the Prem. Making them start at Liverpool was just mean lol.- USMNT 2019

Melancon has been fine. Martin made one bad pitch to Sano and that was after getting extremely unlucky with a bloop on a good pitch with two outs. I'll take the hit for that one because I was at the game Monday and opted not to go Tuesday so clearly that one was my fault. Greene has been a trainwreck and hopefully it's not the beginning of a significant regression only a mild one and he'll get better. To add insult that trade, the Braves actually could use Demeritte for a short period because Riley is going on the IL and Swanson isn't quite ready to comeback and they don't have a good option on the 40 man roster to come up and fill the extra position player spot right now.- USMNT 2019
CCV spending another year in the Championship. Stoke should be a bit better than the Swansea team he played for last year and are expected to contend for promotion. Hopefully he can help them get there (for his sake, I don't care if the club does well or not)- 2019 Atlanta Braves Thread
This season hinges on Foltynewicz coming back and being useful. IF, and I understand that's a big IF, he comes back in September and re-establishes himself as a major league pitcher I could be talked into the Braves being legit contenders with Soroka, Keuchel and Folty as the starters, a revamped good bullpen and this lineup. Of course, these bullpen acquisitions could be duds and Folty is a headcase so I'm not banking on it, but his potential is so much higher than Teheran who, to his credit, made arguably his two best starts of the year against the Nats when the Braves really needed it.- 2019 Atlanta Braves Thread
The Braves get Chris Martin, Shane Greene and Mark Melancon for Kolby Allard, Joey Wentz, Travis Demeritte, Tristan Beck and Dan Winkler. Allard was a big time prospect two years ago but has fallen off dramatically this year and was bad in a small sample size in Atlanta. Wentz is good but wasn't likely to make it to Atlanta for a couple of years. Demeritte has power but is position blocked (particularly because I have a suspicion the Braves are going to try to sign him to a two year deal). The Braves revamped their bullpen and the cost was as minimal as you could've hoped for. AA really did work these last two days.- 2019 Atlanta Braves Thread
From 2015-17 Duvall was a slightly above average hitter (in terms of OPS and OPS+) with plenty of power and the wheels fell of for him last year. If he can replicate his 2015-17 form he's a perfectly suitable option to be your 6-7 hitter.- 2019 Atlanta Braves Thread
2003 is the best comp. 2nd in MLB in runs, 2nd in batting average, 3rd in home runs. 6 players had 20+ home runs: Javy Lopez (43), Gary Sheffield (39), Andruw Jones (36), Chipper (27), Vinny Castilla (22), Marcus Giles (21). Lopez, Sheffield and the Jones boys all had 100+ RBI. That team flamed out in the NLDS because, in a fun twist for the Braves franchise at the time, the pitching wasn't that good. It was Maddux and a whole lot of blech. Smoltz was the closer that year.- Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon A Time In Hollywood
yeah, you can criticize his movies for various reasons, but you absolutely cannot say the man doesn't pour every ounce of his being into his films.- Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon A Time In Hollywood
It was a movie I appreciated much more as I've been thinking about it since it ended (my showing ended about 4 hours ago) than I did while I was watching it. When I watch a movie in theaters I want it to be about a destination as much as anything and I didn't really care for where it ended up but as I thought more about the performances, Pitt and DiCaprio in particular, I really liked it. I think the nuance built into their relationship was great and the scenes where DiCaprio is in the new western TV show were phenomenal (and REALLY made me want a Justified movie where DiCaprio is the bad guy opposite Olyphant). Gonna spoiler some of the things I REALLY loved the more I thought about them: The Sharon Tate angle did nothing for me personally. I think Margot Robbie can act (she's great in I Tonya) but the part was just a whole lot of nothing. I get what she's supposed to represent, but for a movie that's 2:41 I just wasn't feeling that particular plot point.- 2019 Atlanta Braves Thread
Mets scouts were watching our AA and AAA teams tonight. Ian Anderson was pitching in AA which leads me to believe the Braves are going to kick the tires on Syndergaard. I highly doubt the Braves would give up Anderson for Zack Wheeler- USMNT 2019
It's a big fish in a small pond thing. You don't have to refine your skills when you're an unquestioned starter in an inferior league. Liga MX is a better league than MLS.- USMNT 2019
Arriola needs to go to Europe or back to Mexico in the worst way. I love some of the intangibles he brings to the table, but good lord is lacking technical proficiency.- Pro Wrestling
It was every bit the abomination it was expected to be. Raw 25 was horse shit. This was horse shit. - 2019 Atlanta Braves Thread
