Re: MLB Spring Training 2024
Can a mod or Steve just change this thread title to MLB 2024 maybe?

Re: Peter Angelos
Certainly not my favorite owner in sports, but when my uncle who was a “big time” lawyer in Baltimore fell ill toward the end of his life and his partners sort of booted him out of his firm, Peter Angelos employed him for years and let him work a schedule that allowed him to recover. When he got be...

Re: Proud Parental Unit Crowing Thread
On an up note, Quinn turned in his Independent Study today (year long project each College of Wooster senior must accomplish in their major in order to graduate). Massive milestone. 75-page paper all in French comparing French police response to protests (I think ? or immigrants? not sure, it's in F...

Re: Peter Angelos
Pretty sure I will never be around another public figure billionaire rest of my life in this manner, so, I guess I will always have the oddity of that to reflect on.

Re: Peter Angelos
To be clear, he was a terror and frightening and I watched attorneys with 50 years of experience shrivel up in his presence. That those were his employees was NOT to his credit. But, he also waived attorneys fees when I represented my mom when she was a passenger in a car hit by a drunk driver, so t...

Re: MLB Spring Training 2024
Sure, yeah... But that wasn't part of the analysis, unless I missed it. But, yeah, overall... thinking about it after I posted... It's not like this is some journeyman rando... It really does have the Jordan vibe, but with actual wire transfer proof/details. If those were Ohtani's gambling debts un...
Re: MLB Spring Training 2024
If Ohtani placed bets on baseball, no, not hyperbolic.

Stu Holden @stuholden Reflecting on last night and thinking about what the best @USMNT midfield is/should be. The different skill sets of the best CM’s: Adams, Johnny, Musah, McKennie, Reyna - make it tough to find the right balance of 3 in the current system. A Thread:🧵 Gregg needs to either play ...
Re: MLB Spring Training 2024
Not having a background in federal laws/crimes/ stuff or paid much attention to the gambling prohibition rules in MLB (even after the Rose thing), even as a lawyer, I can totally see how the option where a story is concocted that Shohei was simply covering for his wayward friend's debts was what tho...
Re: MLB Spring Training 2024
Craig Calcaterra, before becoming one of my favorite baseball writers, was a lawyer who did a lot of white collar defense work - and he posted this yesterday and made free outside of his subscription site - My breakdown of the Shohei Ohtani business as of today I spent the morning reading funny twee...
Re: MLB Spring Training 2024
Ohtani may have to go to the G-league for a year like when Jordan did minor league baseball for awhile.

No new twists. Just one of those waves that I can't get on top of. Too much in my head, from big stuff that causes panic like the looming fascism to work stuff to separation stuff to dating stuff. Just a lot. It will stop at some point I am sure. Or not. Who can say. Dumb question perhaps, but do y...

Re: NFL 2024 Offseason
Sean, how do we feel about Patrick Queen? I like him but not at anything eben near the price he's likely to command fwiw. the sense in baltimore was that he was really lost until Roquan arrived and then he flourished because Roquan took over the thinking and directing and freed Queen up to just flo...

Re: NFL 2024 Offseason
This is so dumb. Going to be the most 10-7 team of all-time. Watching Russ try and suck up to Steelers fans in his genuinely weird way is gonna be so fun. Can't wait for his first IG post where Mr. Limited reassures them that everything will be fine. Hope he guarantees "a winning record"....
