Red Sox and Cubs fans complaining about moved Game 162 are just making excuses (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As a Boston Red Sox fan, there exists an overwhelming urge to complain that the New York Yankees had their 162nd game cancelled due to weather while Boston and the Chicago Cubs had to travel to Tampa freaking Bay to go play a meaningless game in which Roman Anthony got hurt and both teams had to travel ludicrous distances in three days to then go to their road Wild Card series. But I shall resist that urge, because it's stupid. Ex post facto analysis is the core of sports media, but even in my s
Red Sox torturous Game 1 loss to Yankees came with twist of the knife (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The human mind was not meant to care this much about individual baseball games. Every single loss during the 162-game season can be hand-waved; “Eh, can’t win ‘em all,” or “I mean, we weren’t going to go 162-0.” Then you get to this tortuous, inhumane thing known as the Wild Card Series, a three-game soiree from hell that is specifically designed to make fans feel as terrible as possible. The Boston Red Sox just got stabbed, thrown off a bridge and shot in the head in Game 1 against the New York
The 15 most important players in the MLB Postseason (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The MLB Playoffs are a wonderfully human experience. A mostly random progression of more-or-less-likely discrete events eventually produces a champion, but we assign an internal logic to the proceedings. Who was the most important? What was magical? Is there actually an internal logic or meaning to all this? Probably not, but we assign one. Because that is what it means to be alive. "Most important" is a different set of player than who's the "best," and you'll find some fun (or highly irritatin
The Bucks colluding with Gary Trent Jr. would be the stupidest possible death of a franchise (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If the Milwaukee Bucks colluded with Gary Trent Jr. to circumvent the salary cap and were stupid enough to write it down thus incurring the fire of a thousand suns ignites their entire draft future until the late 2030s, I will be out of words for this franchise. Clean out. If you missed this story, the Bucks recently signed Gary Trent Jr. to a four-year, $64 million contract after signing him the previous two seasons to well-below-market deals, $2.6 million in 2024 (the league minimum) and $3.7
Ranking the NFL's 2-0 teams by their chances to win the Super Bowl (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Going 2-0 is not necessarily the first step to winning the Super Bowl. The first step is probably … uh, making sure your team is financially solvent and eligible to compete in the NFL. Going 1-0 is probably around Step Eight, and then maybe with some post-Week 1 adjustments being Step Nine … let’s call going 2-0 the 10th step to winning the Super Bowl. Seems fair. We have eight teams who have made it to the technically optional tenth step (because you can obviously win the Super Bowl going 1-1,
