Meh

Clemens and Bonds are Hall of farmers as is A Rod
Last I checked none of them are. Sad thing is they all were plenty good to get in on their own but they cheated themselves out of it.

We shall see.

I wouldn’t draw any conclusions from 1 game.
Nope, but even if they start slowly I wouldn't panic.....the first 5-6 games are pretty brutal, but 12 or so games in?

They need to be at least 6-6.

The thing is the MLB was aware of the rampant steroid use around the league but they turned a blind eye because it was getting them ratings. Both position players and pitchers were juicing.

So Baseball can't under the table condone what they're doing, then just flip on them the minute public perception turns on them. That's essentially what they did. They belong in the HOF.

The players union is every bit as complicit as baseball is. They wouldn’t allow the testing. Too bad, they don’t get in. It’s a shame because they could have had their moment this year with Judge.

The West is stacked.

If you fall to far behind, you could be out of it by the deadline.

LeBron and Davis are going to be on point.

But, the rest of your roster is bad.

Get a wing that can shoot and defend and 1 more floor spacer and everything looks different.

Why is Draymond and LeBron talking in front of the Dubs bench a issue?
It's insane the amount of D riding Draymond does with Lebron. I think that's why fans are point it out. Because it's totally consistent.

I mean Draymond literally rolls off the bench on to the court to go talk to Lebron, while the game is going on. That's weird right?

Locking in on a ton of DK lineups tonight.

Bam as a value pick is in almost all of my lineups

So it's BK's fault if he sucks

First thing I do if I pick a player on DK and they suck is immediately blame an associated poster around here for hyping them up. It's a solid coping mechanism.

Oh, is that what people are on about?

I mean, LeBron and the Lakers are Draymond's leverage play.

If anything, it's weird that LeBron is chucking it up with Dray while getting blown out.

Or, did there s happen when the score was tight?
