Biggest robbery in football transfer history
Bro defeating all mpaypal allegations
Rip. Gone too soon 
I'm arguing with a friend of mine about Rodrygo and he said he has a weak left foot because he never scored a goal with his left foot from 25m+ 😭
lol man they roasting Pat Mcafee for somethign not that serious
top 3 lineman in NFL history
Plenty of reasons to roast Pat
Idk what they are
I usually pick that he is super buddy buddy with known douchenozzle Aaron Rodgers
Then follow it up with he was a Colt and I hate the Colts
We are cooking England
Getting cooked by a mid block
Barbarez you have rocked my world
Gigovic is an engine
Amating pickup, we snubbed him under Swedens nose
Thats like the 5th time we've done that

San Diego Padres infielder Tucupita Marcano is facing a potential lifetime ban for betting on baseball, sources tell ESPN.
While Major League Baseball's investigation into Marcano is not complete, a penalty, as @lindseyadler and @jareddiamond reported, could be imminent.
I’m watching a baseball history video on the matter of Japanese baseball. The training and coaching there is so inhuman and insane. Good lord. The baseball anime made reaching Kōshien seem like a fun dream, but dang, if people are willing to damage themselves so hard to get to Koshien, I don’t wanna be a part of it. What a cruel reality
Is it by baseball doesn’t exist ?
Ahhh pen for England
Welp
Vasilj almost saved it
I cannot escape Palmer even on international break
They needed a pen to score against us lol
Fuck me directly if they manage to win the Euros
I'm sorry but I cannot take Palmer seriously, the guy breathes on his mouth
That’s why koshien >>> World Series
Weird hating
IT'S COMING HOME
Was a Top 3 player in the Prem this year can't do that without aura
Fuck all the haters best England coach in my lifetime
I'm very pro England when it comes to the Euros
🇺🇸 WINS COPA and 🏴 WINS THE EUOROS WE WILL BE THERE
I will be there
@hasty basin
We will be there

Nobody marking Arnold as usual
Sorry Croco we have to put him down
Naww
Based on the England performance today they aun't winning shot with Southgate anytime soon
They struggled against our B team
Still
Even Trent doesn't start
Slotkins was ass
Win and clean sheet with their backup team. Sure buddy
Move him to the bench 
Yeah thats game
Germany Ukraine now that's
A huge game
I have both finishing 1st
IN their groups
It’s a 3-0 win that’s good against anyone
Ukraine really 
They can beat Romania
Who
Ukraine
Anyone can
That’s my ceiling for them
I will not rate a mudryk team
He wasn’t even playing when he joined
there is a friendly going on between germany and ukraine
Between them and Ukraine
0-0
I will put my hope on him
Lunik vs Lunin
Yeah I'm watching
germany is ASS rn
When Kroos comes it's gonna be fine
I rate Ukraine highly too
Tbf
It's a little odd of a style
Germany have been going with lately
Short passing
rüdiger is coming too i think
What did he do 
wtf was that
He almost gave away a goal
Thank god it was offside
Man
Ik he was calm and all but
Why tf did he play that type of a pass
What was that
LMAO
Why tf is Bayern
Idek
wdym
neuer is an old man now so they try to hoard goalkeepers in hopes of getting a good one 
absolute snoozefest
Yeah so
Just buy Burnley's whole team
WHAT DO THEY SEE
Trafford
Let me tell you
Was NOT good
I'm js they would do as well playing Peretz as Trafford
Well damb
I remember when the Giants got him, Eman was hyped af
@hasty mesa yo you see this?
how i look about to ask if anyone plays tennis 
Please retire waller
I was that big of a fan of the move in the first place because he’s always injured but I thought maybe we’d get lucky. And he’s way more talented than most of what we had at the time
I do
He played 40+ games last season man. How is that injury prone?
YES
Yeah but 2023 Waller isn’t 2024 Waller
I want him to leave
His heart wouldn’t be in the game
Also this was when our receiver room was completely empty
Now we have Nabers
He’s super talented un-injured I just don’t think his heart is in the game anymore
I rather have the cap
Oh Waller my bad I read walker
Wait
What
NBA finals on Thursday, Stanley Cup finals on Saturday. Not shit to watch otherwise feels weird
Indeed
Let's go Florida
I’m talking about Darren waller
Yeah I thought you said walker my bad
I don't think New York needs a reminder of that
But let's throw the Bills in there for good measure
And sabres
Right can't forget about them
But don’t worry there’s the nycfc and buffalo bandits to make up for it
I know we’re shite but don’t forget about us
I'll try harder next time
Hopefully he's in a good head space. Because no one who releases that auto tune garbage is thinking straight
I am embracing the Perry curse. Probably means we lose but hey it's been a fun af ride getting here
And I get a cool little patch to put on one of my jerseys
Clearly he's not, but I hope he gets there
Imagine living in England and missing this display of champagne football

WOW… #Texans QB CJ Stroud said he would take Eli Manning’s career over Aaron Rodgers legendary career, because of his two rings
“YOU WANT THE RINGS DAWG”
💖 7.64K 🔁 493
Don't worry
They have sunday league

☠️
Any day of the week rings are better
Rodgers at least has one though
Dan Marino is worse
Sb mvp >>>>> mvp
I think their is always exceptions to the rule
@UrinatingTree attempts to find the worst jersey in the history of sports! #sports #jersey #nfl #nhl #mlb #basketball #baseball #fyp #fypシ #short #footballshorts #jerseycustomprinting #design #tree #yinzer #triggered #karen
Boring ugly: the LA Kings
Actually ugly: The Broncos brown and yellow unis
It's hard to just single out the Kings in this case since multiple teams use the same template with different colors and logos.
I just blame the Kings because fuck LA but yeh
lol ayy yoo CJ is on it today
https://vxtwitter.com/MySportsUpdate/status/1797989718740930562
#Texans QB CJ Stroud says Matthew Stafford would have 3 or 4 rings if he had been in Aaron Rodgers' shoes all those years in Green Bay.
“If you gave Matthew Stafford a chance like Aaron Rodgers had, I gua…

lol i finally been watching games
And they lead the division with 4.5 games
We Locked In
That is somehow worse than the NBA player
Banned for ever ?
lol you would think betting on your own team then you would be an expert 
worst insider trader ever 

@restive vector congrats on the Mavericks making it to the finals, but I send my condolences to the stars.
Stars will be back next year
With Peter DeBoer? I'd talk with Knights or Shark fans about how that went with him as HC.
The Miami Marlins will be eating about $24.5 million with their decision to DFA outfielder Avisail Garcia.
He's owed about $7.5 million this year.
He's owed $12 million in 2025.
And he has a $5 million buyout.
He ends his Marlins career hitting .217/.260/.322/.582 with 13 home
😬
I mean you may be right, but I won't complain about DeBoer this year lol
Suddenly makes his time in St Pete look like the golden days.
Non-baseball fans, because there is no cap in the MLB this technically doesn’t affect any actual payroll
But because the Marlins don’t spend to begin with
This just gives them more of an excuse not to spend
Just a funny and sad number.
Goodbye Pavs, you deserved a cup, just not at the expense of the Oil
And baseball fans will continue to make excuses that people in Florida just don't care about baseball and a bunch of snowbirds.
Notice how this is not an issue for any of the other sports in either the Tampa or Miami area
So far things are looking good for the Rays new ballpark
Just waiting for the part St Pete has a hissy fit that they have to pay for most of it.
Literally handcuffs the team to the city and then cries at every attempt to get a new stadium built. Granted Stu could pay a lot more, but this is just pathetic on both sides the last 20 years.
Checo 2 more years at Red Bull, boring
2 more years of crash montages.
Tingus Pingus is expected to play game 1
Twas expected obviously
But Mavs got their work cut out for them
Surprised they didn't take a swing at Sainz
Fucking tingus pingus tryna make life difficult

@proud coyote @dim ledge @celest zephyr
LET'S GO
My goat
Great fucking signing
Well I found the vid @thorn hornet
(0:1 Dzeko) (1:1 Dembele) (1:2 Jahic) (1:3 Bajramovic) (1:4 Misimovic) (2:4 Sonck)
I partially question why they’d do this before extending Aiyuk since CMC was already signed through next season but whatever floats their boat 
Still paying Purdy peanuts so it’s not like they can’t afford this
Cristante called up but Locatelli left at home
😭
🙂
Mancini is also horrible and now he’s probably gonna get minutes at the euros because that prick Gasperini decided to play Scalvini in a useless matchweek 38 game
Yep....
Take a look at the WR market
And the lack of true RB1s especially in CMCs bracket
Now let's also consider the push for RBs to get their bread
Most likely they know how vital CMC is to their chemistry and they want to avoid a worse RB getting a higher deal
Which will absolutely happen, mind you
Aiyuk will be signed and Deebo will move sometime before, during, or after season
Watching this Italy Turkey game is making me lose hope
Wtf is tihs
Maybe it's more on Italy's defence being absolutely terrified
Kabak injured>
Fair
Gut feeling do you think SF will drag out giving Brock huge money for as long as they can?
He’s eligible for an extension at the end of this upcoming this upcoming season
USA is never getting to host another world cup
this has got to be the worst one of all time
I'm not sure. I think they'll give him what he's worth
And there's zero way he isn't getting extended lol
The pitches are soooooo bad man
Could see a way they drag their feet with it a la Kirk Cousins in DC
Mind you I’m not a fan of the franchise tag but still
But since it’s there it is an option
Regardless he's staying a niner
I'm sure he'll be happy
He strikes me as a "you guys took a chance on me, I'll be loyal" type
I’d guess between 54-56 a year as of now
Cause we are talking presumably 2-3 years from now
Dak is getting big money in the offseason, whether from Dallas or otherwise, TLaw is getting big money, Tua (
) as well, then Stroud
That's all okay
You see Purdy is only good because everyone else around him is a pro bowler

Thank you 
I think the stars will be back next year
Salary cap is a social construct
At this point, it’s the same as the MLB luxury tax
To me it’s just having a core for longer
And yeah deebo is probably gone at some point
He’s too injury prone
And pearsall probably gives similar value at this point
Or at least relative to his contract
You know. Except for the part where NFL teams have to spend a certain amount of the cap every free agency, unlike MLB owners.
You couldn't do an Oakland A's in the NFL.
I honestly believe that the 2027 off-season CBA is going to be even more toxic
2022 was just a holdover
Idk those old Lions teams sure tried to
They had to pay a certain amount of the cap those Lions teams though. Try, but can't have the payroll Oakland has rn if they even tried.
Tru
What happens if a team doesn’t meet the floor requirements?
Are they forced to sign a player?
Trust me. Got all the alcohol I can drink stored up preparing for that hell.

Fines, lose draft picks, etc
No.
But here's some info more in-depth.
"NFL teams are allowed to roll over any unused cap space from one season to the next. Clubs must tell the league they plan to roll over cap space by 4 p.m. ET on the day after their regular-season finale.
While the NFL has a salary cap, it also has a salary floor, so teams cannot hold onto money perpetually. Teams must spend at least 89% of the cap over a four-year period, while the NFL as a whole must spend at least 95% of the cap.
If a team fails to reach the 89% threshold, it will be forced to pay the difference to players who were on its roster during those four years. However, no NFL team has been penalized in this manner in recent memory."
Hmm interesting
I heard a recent suggestion by Brodie Brazil
And it was something I was thinking about also to an extant
Maybe instead of a floor per se
It would be a poor man’s tax lol
Where dependent on how much you don’t spend, you receive less revenue sharing money
And maybe also lose draft picks
Say 75 million poor man’s minimum, from 74-65 will be like a smaller percentage taken from revenue sharing, 64-55 will be a larger percentage, and 55 and below will be a significant percentage
And maybe draft penalization
I don’t think the tax percentage should be as high as when a team a lot with the luxury tax system
But there definitely should be some form of a financial penalty
Maybe even have a consecutive penalty system similar to the luxury tax consecutive system
This part is what Brodie said, everything else is what I was thinking throughout the past off-season
The penalization money would go to teams that receive revenue sharing, but spent more than 75 million (75 is just an arbitrary number for example sake)
What do you guys think?
Baseball just needs to get with the times. A small cap and an actual one like the NBA. That's all they need. I think Bob Costas said something like, "Well, a team like the Bills in Buffalo in the NFL could spend because the season is shorter and TV rights. And I'm like, IDK how the NBA and NHL have survived for so long then.
It just sounds like more of the same we don't like change, baseball is a classic sport talk I've heard for so long. And that's not even discussing the players POV. They deserve to fight to the very end to keep a cap from happening.
Small cap is for sure not happening
Players in the NBA don’t mind it because they get a lot more money in sponsorships
But their actual contracts are not very high
MLB players don’t have that luxury unless you are Ohtani
A cap is not happening easily and nicely. The NHL had to cancel a season to get a cap. Just some haunting signs for things to come in the baseball world.
Well, there's always Nippon Professional Baseball.

Man
I had yall 1st I had belief because once you're in a tourney
Take off yknow
But this match was so awful to watch
For both sides
https://x.com/thedunkcentral/status/1798027450288587241?s=46 LEBRON IS A MAV
next 3 years is ours 
People are getting 60 mill a year soon in the nba
They are insane
Yeah, I’m pretty sure they’re still not fully guaranteed
MLB contract are stipulated to be fully guaranteed
The only incentives you can add are All-Star appearances and MVP awards, cy young awards, votes etc.
The Los Angeles Lakers are zeroing in on JJ Redick as the frontrunner for franchise’s next head coach, league and industry sources say.
Developing story at @TheAthletic: https://t.co/PqVJt8OBjs
Nba is
There are very few that aren’t
Oh I didn’t know

NBA also has significantly less roster spots than the NFL and and MLB
So I guess giving a guy a contract that would eat up most of your cap is not that big of a deal
Nba has contract cap limits though
The most a guy can get is like 30% of the salary cap
In the mlb i could theoretically pay a guy 150 mill and the rest 25 mill
This makes it weird cuz a lot of people have a max-super max deal but wildly range in ability
Nba also has rookie max vs normal max
Where other than some escalators a rookie can only get a certain cap percentage which is less than a vet
FARKKKK
idk if anyone paid attention, i think it was game 3-4 but kyrie split 2 defenders so fast it looked clean AF
Tony Brothers and Scott Foster
It’s so bad hahahahaha who wild buy this ?!
It’s like those soccer half scarves, yuck
lol i kinda like it 🫢
even worse...
yeah idk why people buy those lol
id buy one if aek played liverpool
damnit i cant hate that
This is entirely only for the hockey guy I stg
Like who else wears that unless your teams were both Florida and Edmonton which
Idk if that combo exists
LMAOOOOOOOOO
Eagles apparently moving Bradberry from CB to S @sacred kite
FUCKING KNOBLAUCH I LOVE YOU

Knowing him, he didn't mean it as an insult
But god damn it's amazing
Ain’t that you? Panthers oilers leafs?
Yep just like your Sabres and Vegas and Seattle
Yoooo I didn’t choose teams that hurt you 
Wrong, the Leafs always hurt me
It’s still your team
But I didn’t choose the bills for you
You also said the Panthers
And you know my feelings about noted former Flames douche Tkachuk
That was just me being silly
Lol you're good no biggie man
I know I’m just messing around 
But honestly I am going into this finals happy to see my team in it. Even if I hate Tkachuk I don't really hate all the Panthers yet
But we may never get back here, so I am gonna enjoy it a ton
As long as you don’t hate Okposo you can hate on the rest
We've had a gauntlet of former Flames this whole playoffs
I got a rotation of jerseys I'll be wearing
We have 4 former sabres as well in the final 
Yeah that’s the only former sabre i hate
I want to write a letter of thank you to Dallas for knocking out Vegas and Colorado lmao
Write them a cute poem
But we did have our own gauntlet. Vancouver made us claw for every inch and Dallas made me sweat on a nightly basis
It felt so good to knock out Vancouver
It felt so bad to lose to oilers
You know what I think of mcsauce, I can’t change my mind on it and if he wins the cup it will be even more difficult to do so
I just don't understand how you can deny he is the best in the league
Did you see what the hell he did against Dallas on that power play?
Because I can’t just change my words
Me during the power play against Dallas
Lmao it's not about changing your words
I've been wrong many times
If Josh Allen ever won multiple super bowls and all that I'd have to admit he is the best qb in the nfl and would do so
But his ass can't beat Pat Mahomes so

Nah mcdavid is a fraud
It goes against who I am as person
Thank you
Getting carried by Leon
And mini skinner
You’re a bigger man than me, I’m too petty to do that
Darnell nurse extended to a lifetime contract
Say what you want
But we win a cup with Nurse and Skinner, what does that say about everyone else
That skinner is goat
It runs in the family
Hell the fact we are in the cup is enough for me to ask that question
Everyone doubted us from the second the playoffs started. Using tired lines about bad defense and what not
So I am happy they proved that nonsense wrong. This is a more complete team, they've built something better. Florida is fucking great and deserve to be praised but the more I hear people use tired lines that don't apply this team anymore, the more I just figure you don't pay attention to our team
Don’t worry it’s not you man
I only pay attention to my team
It's fine to just pay attention to your team
I’ll watch a game here and there but in the background
Sabres have my full attention
I just got tired of everyone talking matter of factly about my team
When the criticisms didn't apply
I’m tired of all the blame being on poor skinner
Skinner had bad games these playoffs, but he also since coming back in game 5 against Vancouver has been nearly lights out
He outdueled Otter for God's sake
I am not saying he is an elite goalie, but to say he is just a sieve is insane to me. He is streaky yes. He has bad games. He also was a rookie last year and this is his second round of playoffs
He could very well go in against Florida and be cold and not have a good series, but dude earned respect for getting us here, for bouncing back, and for all the shit talk Kings fans and Canucks fans (and flames fans) he played us into the cup final
They need to move him to space
But hopefully he puts the work in this season
https://www.nbcdfw.com/news/sports/stars-central/dallas-stars-joe-pavelski-retires/3559069/?amp=1
A shame you never got to hold the cup. We're going to miss you Pavs 


@dim ledge India vs Ireland cricket match in NY today
Yeah I’ve been hearing about it on the radio for the last few weeks, they’ve really been hyping it up actually
Lmfao I hate American thought process on sports
So linear. So monotone.
So dry
For a sec I thought this was a Flames post plagiarized. 
😂😂 then it would be acceptable
Eat, sleep, find ways to slander and hate the Oilers, repeat.
Calgary slander - acceptable! Some journalist calling a guy with 982 points in 645 games overrated is not
Note it's from the Miami Herald. You sure Matthew Tkachuk didn't write this? 
Handwritten hahah
Like man you can easily man a hot take that McDavid is soft or something but overrated come on
Can't wait to see that article end up on the "Hockey Images that Precede Unfortunate Events" Twitter page after all this is done.

The London Stadium is #LondonSeries ready
@MLB | @Mets | @Phillies
Hey soccer people, what stadium is that?
The London Stadium (formerly and also known as the Olympic Stadium and the Stadium at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park) is a multi-purpose outdoor stadium at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in the Stratford district of London. It is located in the Lower Lea Valley, 6 miles (10 km) east of central London. The stadium was constructed specifically for the...
I’m not worried about it.
He made that one great catch in Atlanta and that’s all I cared for.
My stadium
My football club and my baseball club
You are from America pls man
lol
I feel sorry for WH that the Mets are here
Footy has turned Lunik British
I pray they don’t leave any stink behind
I think LOLMETS should rub off that place.
I’m somewhat of an Anglophile !
People be wondering. “Why is there a subtle sound granting “Meet the Mets”?
I’m the only person here who actively roots for England in tournaments
We already suffer, I don’t want more 😪
BTW I think I found you.

That dumb kid lmao
Why
Hockey gods be like:
As they should! Puck never lied in those 6 games
I’m not angry this year. Disappointed, yeah. No anger though, that was all last year
In what was the most soulless game 7 imaginable
Which is a high statement considering that wasn’t the only game 7 shut out that I’ve been through
Using a Sheldon Cooper gif on Lunik is nasty business
first thing I come home to every day - my dog, my parents, Sheldon Cooper on TV
Lmaoo
All I’ll say is, if Panarin or Zibanejad were any smaller on the ice, could they file for disability of not being able to work. to quote a Urinatingtree
Lmfao work 8-10 hours, come home.. it’s Sheldon time
Mika is not an elite 1C, barely is a 1C. He’s so negative, always backwards or sideways.. you’re a C!!! Go Up !!!!
Panarin while wasn’t great I do think him being smothered actually did open up Laffy to have the playoff he did. Not defending him though but I’m not as critical on Panarin this year as I am with Kreider and Mika, who anger me to no end
They need more physical wingers because Panarin at 32 is what you get.
This is why I don’t mind sending info to siren about how bad his teams are
Those White Sox speak for itself
He actually got a mod the other day on Tree’s server telling him to stop pinging Sox fans for how bad they are. 
Won’t disagree
Don’t care
I caved to the other person I pinged and edited it out
Stood my ground on you
jj redick being the lakers head coach would be beyond stupid
it'd also be such a jeanie buss and lebron move that its going to happen
halftime podcast incoming
Lol outcome of that one should be obvious
Been following Proteas
They fucked up Sri Lanka
Good wicket by India there
The #Browns have signed Kevin Stefanski and Andrew Berry to contract extensions.
5 wickets gone now this is a rout
@silk pine
Side note
Steelers failing the "don't be a scumbag org" challenge
They are just relying on tomlin to make it work out
Steelers aren’t a serious team
They have to burn everything down and build the team from scratch
what was his off the field incident
Beat the crap out of his GF and then ran away for like a week+ from police
really cant understand the idiot posting that tweet labeling it an off the field incident either
domestic violence and evading the police, making it sound like it was an argument by saying that lol
They have connections
If they label it as something more violent they might not get info from those sources again
Of course a random ass person has no need to make it look tamer than it actually was
The Hannibal lecter quote is forever relevant
yea its just sad though, like the thought of someone not getting info from a source simply because they were transparent about something and dont down play it.
It is
@final plaza a very closely fought contest between the two teams
Such high scoring pitches are the essence of t20 cricket
😭
Not bad, they should hire the same designer for the Utah powder
Ha too late
I saw you lunik
Hmmmmm
Looks familiar
Like a team to the East of them nearby
That plays Baseball
The difference is their jerseys don't look boring
Seriously, the Rockies need a rebrand.
Rockies jerseys are not BORING
Considering their color scheme. Yeah, they're boring.
You're called the Rockies and there's barely anything on those unis that says Rockies. Their city connects are the closest to getting to that.
The jersey should be made out of rocks from the Rockies mountains
Oh they fixed it??
That corporate ass look they had was so awful
I've been asking them to go back to them for so long.
Idk why they ever got away from it
Because so many teams just went away from the 90s look.
It's just also a fact so many teams like to change it up for generation to generation.
Like, the Bucks have gone through so many secondary colors over the years. It's crazy.
@rustic mountain I can’t be the only one that thinks it looks to similar to Rockies type look
How come this generation has to have the blandest things
You mean the Colorado Rockies?
And windows 8 design
Yeah!
Do they have new unis?
No
He's saying they look similar.
Then I don't really see it tbh
Yeah. Because the Jazz unis aren't boring. 
The Rockies have had the same look forever and it's not a great one imo
The Rockies are my NL team
In fact a LOT of baseball teams have some poor looks
I think this is what go is talking about
No.
Basically
No he is meaning their normal unis
But those are what the Rockies main ones should look like.
Except with the Rockies colors instead
Those aren't the normal ones
So purple
You're called the Rockies with probably the coolest color scheme on paper and you chose some of the blandest crap imaginable.
Also my condolences on your NL team
Go they don’t have a monopoly on mountains. Anything with a mountain will sort of ressemble this
lol
Ngl
The only my MLB because of the colors and the uniforms
I don't think there is a team that I would like to be seen sold more besides the A's than the Rockies
That ownership has been atrocious
CR hat. The white jerseys with just "Colorado" on it. Probably took 15 minutes in the developmental stage
Coors is that well designed as a ballpark
And it gets top 10 numbers in attendance every year
They’re beautiful
EVEN THE BADS YEARS
The fact Nolan Arenado was outed is insane
But they've been doing this to everyone that isn't named Todd Helton
Technically he was traded and he was 100% ok with waiving his no trade clause
Those Denver fans already sit through the Broncos crap. Not surprised the Rockies don't have attendance problems.
Yeah because the Rockies wore his ass down
He was done with the bullshizzle of the org
I'd wanna leave too
It’s crazy
How fucking sad is it the best player they had who had a no trade clause, wanted to stay, had loyalty to them
And they grinded that down
How out of all teams the Rockies have NO attendance issues
And gave him to St Louis
Kris Bryant still regretting signing with them
Dude wakes up every morning and Kubrick Stares into the mirror as he puts on the hat and jersey
Wouldn't be surprised if it has to do with Coors Field. It's a HR park. That's entertainment.
That and new Yankee's Stadium
Just learn how to hit left handed and you're good
Or how to hit oppo hrs
Don’t forgo
Great American
Reds ballpark dimensions are so tight
One of the most hitter friendly ballparks for that reason
Too bad you can't hit the owners out of there.
Too bad about everything else that is the Reds
Have I shown you this?

You get catches better than this in your average t20 game almost every time. If the impressive part is supposed to be the throw then cricketers don’t do that because they don’t need to, catching means the batsman is out.
Never seen a “cricket” player do this
【QRT of David (@FourNaanJeremy):】
'I genuinely think if the average American watched a single game of top level cricket their head would Simply Explode.'

I can't watch Cricket
Bruuh bruuuuh bruuuuuh
Especially after hearing how long some of those matches are
Also the catches in cricket are done without mitts
Ouch
T20 matches last as long as baseball matches really
The ball is not hit NEARLY as hard
How long?
Like 3 hours
I am also maxed out on sports
Easy
Maybe less
I would watch Cricket if I had more time. Looked fun the few times I've seen it.
Baseball average is 2 1/2 now
But I appreciate the coolness of it
Yeah same ballpark
You don’t have 48 hours to watch snooker matches?
Basically, I've upped hockey to my second sport, baseball third and American football still first
@steel nexus a baseball is an incredibly hard ball, your hands can break very easily without a glove
Cricket balls are harder
The European mind simply cannot comprehend hitting a bomb 450 feet on a 98 mph two-seamer

Trust me brooo
They’re also heavier
I’m not joking
I know you’re not
No they can’t
Because they don’t use feet or mph
But I’m just saying what i know
And because of how hard the ball is hit in comparison to cricket gloves are necessary
Change it to a real unit and we can talk
I’m sure there’s a good reason for it but I’m not talking about that anyways
But even if we were to talk about that
Then we’re in agreement
I’d say having mitts definitely makes catching easier
I'll also be real, watching in cricket in the states
Would be way harder
Charlie Morton, 94mph Fastball and 80mph Curveball Spin, Overlay
Hey, I remember that-
It’s funny because the current World Cup is going on in the US
and us folk don’t know

I think people will enjoy this game if they give it more of a chance
Jacob deGrom, 98mph Fastball, 95mph Slider & 89mph Changeup, Overlay/Slow.

@steel nexus famous baseball media personal JomBoy was actually invited to comment on some games
Yeah, For whatever reason, F1 is really the only European sport that has clicked with the US it seems from what I've seen. And it's funny too because they seem to act like they don't want anything to do with the US besides the tracks.
That’s pretty cool
He is actually one of the most proactive people in the world that try to get people into cricket
Football is also very popular
Ain't that weird, Europe hates us lmao
There’s a league that was created since last season
Of course the New York team has the dumbest name
That’s horrible ngl
All the other teams in the newly created league have awesome names
See another bland name
Still feel like Footy is slowly getting there. Not yet though. Not compared to the other sports in the US.
Cricket just has a more complicated ruleset
Is it as big as nascar in the USA?
F1 now is pretty much over NASCAR.
@honest latch personally when it comes to the professional leagues, I don’t know. But Jomboy media team actually has created a warehouse games league series that is basically cricket
Nascar imo has a problem with the casual person
That’s where I started
Most people I know associate it with redneck southern stuff and it depends on your view of that
What about Indy car series?
I do like Jomboy a lot
F1 does seem cooler in general, but I am not into racing
NASCAR DOES NOT KNOW ITS AUDIENCE!
Popularity
I used to watch racing as a kid but you know I only watch when someone or a team I enjoy is competing
NASCAR is never gonna bring causals in. F1 is like a sprint while NASCAR is more of a marathon. More people gravitate towards the sprint.
I don’t know why I would watch a race without Montoya
I would go to watch a NASCAR race but I don’t want to stay put in front of the tv
@honest latch this is where I got started on the sport https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2_ZhCWbTuaJw7cbBTvjt12joEn3nxUB7&si=W2Rf07hAX0Po48Mc still very new to cricket it but it did give me an idea of how it functions
@steel nexus where are you from btw
Even when NASCAR was considered a top sport in the 90s here in the US. That was mainly because the likes of Dale Sr, Jeff Gordon, Tony Stewart were out of this world characters in the sport.
You know what was a top sport in the 60s?
Horseback racing
Practically irrelevant now
I saw some writing a baseball is harder than a cricket ball?💀💀
Writing?
Typing millennial
They both have there difficulties. Let’s not pretend that one is easier than the other
I never said that did I
Hitting a baseball is arguably the hardest thing to do in sports
Cricket balls have killed people
WITH HELMETS
I thought that was cheering for the Yankees
Getting a base hit with baseball thrown by a major league pitcher by most accounts from all athletes is one of the hardest things to do
Yankees fans acting oppressed in the big 2024 🤣🫵
Hitting a 147 and it’s not even close. Maybe a hole in one but even then you can always get lucky if you’re decently good
this game is a piece of cake for india holy shit, what a rout
Lmao don't point at me, I am a Jays fan. I am saying the yankees are unlikable
So is facing a 160kmph swinginh ball with uneven bounce lol
that's about 100mph
Blue Jays 2024 - Direct to Video movie produced by WWE Films
Ahh ok
They aint making Cricket popular with these pitches
If we involving snooker I’m involving chess
Lmfao
Directed by the dude who made the Room
@tardy solstice where are you from btw?
tommy wiseau the GOAT
44.44 m/s
lol
Take a guess
yeah
Yep
"I did not hit the ball. It's bullshit. I did not hit it. I did NOT... Oh, hi John!"
"YOU'RE BOWLING ME APART LISA"
Lmaoo Vald word for word
@tardy solstice since last year somebody created a league that involves South Asia and Middle Eastern countries for baseball
If I have to hear Schneider tip his cap to another White Sox pitcher I'll lose my mind
The team that was created in India is called the Mumbai Cobras
Is there a cricket league considered the top one?
Oh?
Never seen Indians play baseball
Might check that out
yeah, we indians, we love cobras for sure!
watch million dollar arm, good movie and based on real story
Pakistan
There’s also a movie that based on a true story about major-league MLB agent trying to get Indian people into the sport
yeah, good movie, feel good
Is it a Bollywood movie or English
english
It has Jon Hamm
Hollywood
Ohh
unfortunately, neither of the two players scouted play baseball anymore
Maybe will watch one day
Speaking of, the same league also created a Pakistan team
Called the Karachi Monarchs
Was interested in baseball as a kid due to its similarities
I’m pretty sure the dude who the movie is based on was in WWE
Or AEW
Who even comes with these names
one of them yeah
Jinder mahal?
Yeah he was called Veer Mahan
You asked for the must difficult thing to do in sports and I would say a 147 is at least top 3. Chess is difficult and I could never beat a chess master but I don’t know what exactly you want to say is the most difficult thing to do. Chess is definitely up there with go as some of the most difficult games out there. But a 147 specifically has everything that can be difficult about it. You basically need to play 36 balls in a row in the exact order with the most precise possible positioning. You need to have complete control of the table
Comes up*?
Trying so hard to kick Andretti out
rohit sharma hitting a half century easy
Despite having clown shows called sauber and haas
Wc23/19 form
And a second team for Red Bull
Yay a new sabres 
Also league culture is too big in the us, even overtaking multi national events
I think most people outside the us care more about tournaments and stuff
Mlc could be big if Indian cricketers join
@steel nexus actually that was the intention to sound similar to the kings
Like world cups and stuff
Aus stars are already in it
And that’s fair I just wasn’t expecting snooker to appear 
And monarchs is a historically significant name in MLB, Kansas City Monarchs was a very important team in the league I cannot say because of server rules
The bcci is just scared that Indian cricketers being in other leagues will take eyes away from the ipl
Even if they want to they can't
But I honestly don’t think that’s true at all
It’ll probably get even bigger than it is
each match of the ipl is valued at 14 million dollars lmao
I didn’t even realize that was blocked lmao
The more you know
The league that Jackie Robinson played in before mlb
When I hear difficult sports I have to bring up snooker. Also I’m the snooker fan of the server
74 matches * 14 million dollars
obscene amount of money made by the bcci and advertisers and all other entities
Don't forget marquee matches
like yeah, its a money machine
Yeahhh I learned that the hard way when I got a warning lol
Had to explain that it is historical and not racist
the ipl's current value is like 12 billion dollars, as of 2023
Hear Edmonton Oilers forward Zach Hyman and Head Coach Kris Knoblauch, Dallas Stars forward Matt Duchene and Head Coach Pete DeBoer, as well as referee Garrett Rank, mic'd up from Game 6 of the Western Conference Final between the Dallas Stars and Edmonton Oilers, which saw the Oilers advance to the Stanley Cup Final for the first time in 18 yea...
Cool shit
Oilers will you break the NHL Canada bettman curse?
Ye and cricket here is only getting bigger
What’s the differences in cricket types? Seems like one is just longer games while one is like one inning
Like T20 or test or whatever
One day-50×6 balls
T20-20×6 balls
Test is 90×6 balls per day
An over in cricket is 6 balls or 6 pitches
The types of cricket just vary how many overs are in a game
@tardy solstice @steel nexus all seriousness I would recommend to check out the baseball league that’s been created in the Middle East and South Asia I’m very big into baseball and I’ve always wish that those areas had more baseball. It’s called Baseball United. Apparently they will start playing games soon this year and they already did a few expedition games last season
T20 has 20 per innings, odi has 50 per innings
And 5 days
These are limited over types and have only 2 innings
Test matches and other list A matches have a variable number of overs
And are timed via hours
Have 4 innings
And can last up to 5 days
Might check it out then
Will definitely check it out
We face the same problem as you guys regarding baseball
There’s basically no easy way to watch and get involved with it
Yea was gonna research about that lol
Regional lockouts are a bitch
I’m doing some research on leagues
Seems like Indian and Australian leagues are the most popular
Manfred said that his goal before he steps down is to nationalize the broadcasting and basically get rid of the lockouts
The one time I actually hope he is successful on this
Ipl is the only big one
Bbl and psl change spots depending on how good each season is
Expressvpn directv and sling are streaming cricket
There used to be a champions league too
Got scrapped because no one watched non indian teams lol
It might come back
Regional should just pay for rights to access the national broadcast
And sell it on their platform
@tardy solstice @celest zephyr @rustic mountain Toronto Blue Jays 3rd overall prospect in their farm that was drafted last class is Indian-American
When is the south asian league starting
Both parents immigrated
I heard sometime this 2024 assuming near the end of this year
Latter half
With 4 teams
The two previously mentioned
Mid East Falcons and the Arabia Wolves
If I’m not mistaken, the wolves are a team based in dubai
And the falcons are abu dhabi
I see
David Booth lol
Why are Man City suing the Premier League? 🤔
💖 1.38K 🔁 235
Hope it backfires
@thorn hornet best thing Edu has done https://x.com/realtolmie/status/1798400086315262459?s=46&t=r7wAoOlnBiz9DTokWYJKTw
Arsenal responsible for leaking details of City's upcoming case against the Premier League. Coincides with Director of Football, Edu, having a pop at City last week.
