Sarcasm? Because that's being done now.

"That's embarrassing.  Looks like Josh Duggar the first time his parents asked him to babysit."

For $7 mil I'll put a webcam in front of my shitter so I can answer fan questions while I drop the Longhorns off in College Station.

Going into the bottom of the 9th down 2-3 against Venezuela.  If they win this do we have to give them their king back?

The Cubans having to watch the Venezuelans celebrate the 3-2 win in Miami.

I'm seeing the Judge memes all over Twitter. 100% earned.

He batted .222 overall in the WBC and had 1 hit and 5 K's in their last 2 games.

I'm a Yankees fan, but his struggles in the postseason and in the clutch are far worse than ARod's ever were.

Steinbrenner used to deride Dave Winfield as "Mr. May." Well, pick a month in the summer and give it to Judge.

How does MLB not have any games on any cable networks? The cardinals are on fucking peacock tonight? Like wtf? I'm not subscribing to peacock just to watch this one game. And hell I subscribed to something to catch one game the other day, thinking I might hang on for a month or two, for it to be blacked out. wtf. You're going to blackout a game for the Memphis market that is being played in St. Louis. Last year, they were on fan duel or something and I paid for a few months but damn, you'd think of all the fucking channels on you tube or whatever that someone would just about host a game somewhere each night to increase interest in the sport.

Idk but it's retarded.  I'm not getting MLB.TV for $150/year.

I forsee "virtual tickets" in the future. Pay a certain fee and you are courtside/ringside/center ice/50-yard line and 360 degree views using a VR system to any sporting activity.

I don't know what I think of the ABS challenge system yet. I kind of lean towards the human part of the game, just let umpires call it. But, here's one change I would immediately make based on the electronic strike zone only being a 2D plane in the middle of the plate, when baseball is a 3D game with the ball moving and a whole plate. Also in the spirit of "clear and convincing evidence."

Yesterday I saw a pitch called a ball, and on the replay the edge of the ball was just barely touching the upper left part of the strike zone. The announcers even said he touched the zone by a stitch. For any ball that falls on the line, I would go with the umpire's call unless the ball is completely in the other side. If he called a ball, it has to be completely within the strike zone to be changed. If he called a strike, it has to be completely outside the strike zone to be changed.

Yeah, I think there should be some degree of error "zone". There have been some egregious errors in the past on balls and strikes, but I think I prefer the human element mostly, except to correct egregious mistakes.

"We don't know why ratings are down." 

I went with this option:

MLB+
$59.99/yearly

Stream MLB Network 24/7 (US Only) for an entire calendar year. Plus, select live out-of-market games, live audio (no blackouts), live MiLB games, MLB Big Inning, and Gameday 3D.

I love the MLB Big Inning. 2 to 4 games at once. Audio switches to games with the most going on.I also watch the recap of all games every morning.

I say never, but I have a 43" LG tv ready to go up in my home office - big upgrade over watching in here via computer screen.  I may wind up subscribing to that so I can keep up with games during the day and free up this second monitor for cranking it to pr0n while posting on Woopig.

When do we start ranking this dude on the best ever list? I don't think Livvy is ever going to reply to my DM's after seeing this.

Jaxon Wiggins is being shut down with another elbow injury. Not great after already having TJ.

Sounds of Baseball, old episodes of Bob Costas Studio 42, the classic games, a Freddie Freeman documentary, Cathedrals of the Game, the live games, AND I can sort by freaking decade and relive the 90's!?

I should have signed up as soon as you posted about it.  So much for my productivity today.

I just watched "One of a kind", a documentary on Greg Maddux. I would highly recommend.
