Rizzo is a genius to let our tank season being a short 60-gamer rather than a full season. Get a top-3 pick without wasting away our summer.
I count 7 teams with worse records.  Will have to pick up the pace. Let’s go 0-1 today.

Manfred and the players union have already said it's real so there's really nothing left to debate on the matter.
If your team wins you say it’s real. If they do poorly you say it’s not real.

If at some point they need to abruptly cancel the remainder of the season due to multiple outbreaks, nobody will claim that it's a real season. So the thread is still valid.

Wonder if they picked it up in Miami or in Philly over the weekend.

This is all the commissioners fault. Everyone should be playing in a “bubble”.  :mg:

Shut it down (the thread).

Even if they cancel it today, we still played a condensed 2020 season.

Any thoughts to the contrary are some sort of weird wishful thoughts.

If you are uninterested in the thread why read it?

You keep mentioning wishful thinking... what do you think people are wishing for?

The thread has morphed into a discussion of whether they will be able to complete the season as planned. It's a worthwhile discussion.  You can argue that the thread title should be changed; me, I don't care.

From Philly: Wilt Chamberlain, Will Smith, Earl Monroe, Hall and Oates, Bobby Darin, Peter Boyle, Dick Clark, Broderick Crawford, and Larry Fine. And me.  Since you mentioned Trump, he went to college there.

Is she the one who got dumped?

Vanna White is from North Myrtle Beach.  Which is just a stones throw from Wilmington.

Nope, Lara is still married. It's junior who evidently is a chip off the old block.  :crackup:

I know he's from North Carolina.  But he "came" from Philadelphia. As in, the Eagles traded him to the Redskins.

I know all about the April fools trade. I had a "I Like Sonny" bumper sticker. ;)

If it turns out the Mets got infected in Florida, it seem like it is time to pull the plug on teams playing in Florida.

All I remember is him throwing interceptions.  Very strong and accurate arm, but could not read defenses.

A side benefit  (that few people remember) was that Claude Crabb went to Philly in that trade.  I was very happy about that; he was one of the worst cornerbacks in history.
