Well obviously there was a reason I made the prediction, whether you see it or not.

LOL.

Not much different than putting a fake runner on 2nd base honestly. This guy is making Selig look smart.

This rule change is great

This rule change is great

I went to a minor league game probably 4 years ago where they were testing the pitch clock, I liked it. Reading where they are going after pitchers doctoring the ball harder than ever this year.

Meh, it's STILL baseball...

pretty sad they can’t even suspend him until the investigation is over, stuff is so out of whack.

Will this be a rule in the playoffs too? I hope not

I believe so. Players shouldn't be stepping out of the box and take their sweet ass time

Ohh shot at first I thought this was a pitcher violation. Totally forgot about the batter 8 second rule

 

[thunderc]

Been watching a little of the Reds and Indians, like it so far.

Not punishing someone before we know they're guilty of something is considered "out of whack" now?

Dude do a little investigation on this one, 99 percent of schools wouldn’t be playing him.

Doesn't make it right. What has he been convicted of?

 

[thunderc]

Doesn't make it right. What has he been convicted of?

A person died, it was his gun. No one hurt by doing the right thing and sitting him him until he is cleared, the right thing to do.

So he hasn't been convicted of anything?

Has he been arrested or charged?

I can see that side of it. It’s pretty obvious there is more to this story, Alabama is doing it how they want, the SEC isn’t stepping in, my team is part of that now, there are things more important than sports. This should be one of those times.

If he was the 8th guy on the team and he brought the gun to a teammate that was used in a capital murder he would have been ushered off the team as well. But this dude is a lottery pick and a one seed. That’s the only reason he wasn’t dismissed from the team as well. I think this is pretty obvious to all that the big variable here is the player in question is really good and that bodes well for Alabama. I’m going to enjoy rooting against them in the SEC tournament and the NCAA tournament for sure and hope they fall short of their goals. Alabama has every right to do what they want to do just as I have every right to wish they lose in agonizing fashion.

Everyone can read the story for themselves and ask themselves if it seems sketchy

Brandon Miller, Alabama basketball, murder and controversy. Here is what we know.

The Alabama men’s basketball team was having a dream season. That is, until the program got embroiled in an ugly, tragic controversy.
