It looks like they’d basically chop off the rookie ball/short season level.

One report I read mentioned that they would rearrange affiliates and levels. It would be nice to move the Chiefs from Low A up a level or two. Dozer Park is probably more of a Double A level park anyways.

We need to be better at shooting if we're going to matter in March. Average shooting is enough to win a regular season ritle, but not enough to win the 6-11 game. I will take the 6-11 game right now and take my chances 😀 BU wouldn't need much offense when they're playing lock down D against an 11 s...

Bumbling and troubling would be a nice title for the Roberts chapter.

Here's a good preview on Missouri State. They're going to be really good for awhile it appears (unless they blow up once Ford moves up) -- https://www.midmajormadness.com/2019/10/17/20908016/the-other-top-25-preseason-rankings-no-13-missouri-state-bears-college-basketball-preview-dana-ford?fbclid=I...

11 day bump. There are a handful of tickets still available for the auction. If you're interested in going, it is best to get registered ASAP because there is always a rush early in the week of the event that pushes the event close to sell-out status. This year will probably be a little sooner.  Lot...

Will you guys let me know if Bradley wins tonight?

I'd also like to know - Is the defense good or the offense bad? Is the offense good or the defense bad?

Who all is going tomorrow? I hear there is going to be a special guest or maybe two.

Couple week out bump. Some of the items are starting to appear online. Tickets are still available. JMM - will they offer online bidding? Or do I need to find an unreliable proxy like in 2013? For those who haven't attended in the past, this is one of the best fundraiser/gala events each year in Ce...

Coach K has come down from the mountaintop to agree with rule changes to allow athletes to profit from their likeness.

I really wish the NCAA and associated brain trust would figure out this is not “pay for play”. The schools themselves are not paying a dime. This is for image and likeness only. What in the world does that have to do with a school’s budget? For the record I am against pay for play, but individuals ...

Shut up short-timer (Roberts, not you PH :D ). Having a small-minded President is how you get there faster. I don't want to go that way without fighting and putting the best forward. We're finally moving in a direction of excellence across the board athletically, and now is not the time to just qui...

I am hoping the smoke is not Connor Linke. I could see him being a good MVC player. I am just hoping for someone who is more immediately ready to push people around and rebound. (Stronger at this time) If Boya is ready to play a bunch after Bar leaves this isn't a problem. But, I would prefer anoth...

Going to be cool to say Bradley went to Memphis and beat the eventual national champion.

We can hope Marquis will fund roster moves, but in today’s cord-cutting climate, it may not be the immediate increase the Cubs ownership wants. This is the biggest load of crap excuse the Ricketts have put out there - that there was only so much money and the Cubs spent all they could. The Cubs pri...

It’s probably an appropriate time to add Kimbrel to the ever growing list of Theo free agent failings.

Mitch hasn't been good enough. He has shown flashes of the potential, but that is about it. He has been the worst starting QB in the NFL thus far this year. I don't think he gets next year unchallenged if he doesn't turn it on this year.

I can’t imagine that Drake allows students to carry any sort of firearm or have it in on campus housing.

One former BU coach produced about one NBA/or top Euro player every year... -two NBA players (POB, Walt) -and multiple guys who played at top Euro spots (Cellus, Andrews, Franklin, Warren, Theron Wilson, Chris Roberts, Taylor Brown, Dyricus) plus DRuff, Boogie, Sammy & Tony Bennett and a few more t...

Am I correct in saying that Mast was walking around the tailgate and other recent Bradley events without even a knee brace? I'd say that's impressive if true. He was. He was active, even knocking a ball around, walking normal with only a small anterior incision on the knee. And the talk at the tail...
