I think the Colts would just be bones

Oh even if it's a New York thing, I saw a guest list for the Amazing Race finale, it's in New York, her bestie Lauren is going but she's not.

If Ava shows up to any alumni function anywhere it is going to be the rare chase drop.
December 8, 2025 at 10:51 PM
Oh God no she looks perfectly happy to just, leave these weirdos and their cockamamie lifestyle behind her aside from the ones she struck up friendships with during the game itself.
December 8, 2025 at 10:43 PM
I'm convinced this is a fairly significant reason why Ava didn't fly out with the others. Not even going to take the risk of someone wanting to pay for a photo of her next to, say, Mickey. Nope. Not for sale. I'll just stay back in New York thank you.
December 8, 2025 at 10:30 PM
The guy who paid for the photo almost certainly

Here's the thing about people calling it a sham.

If they really thought it was that much of a sham they'd walk away once it became clear the two weren't gonna make it. Instead the same folks are back every single year to call it a sham again.

Sham or get off the pot.

The reason isn't as important as the peer reaction. That's what most any Hall of Fame is first and foremost about: having the respect of distinguished peers. And it's clear that Bonds and Clemens do not garner the respect of their distinguished peers.

Two days of tourism, big whoop. This is kinda the Alan Eagleson thing but for baseball, the existing HOFers going either they're out or ALL of us are.

If it's going to go that far down the list that's really the only face-saving answer, call in Deeper Than Hate.

I think that's the goal: the Hall can plainly see that IF they ever get in it won't be for at least another generation and will likely be posthumous, and wants to force people to move the hell on already and talk about candidates with an actual chance.
December 8, 2025 at 1:52 AM
I think this IS the Hall's note about steroids: if you take them, we literally do not care how much you rewrote the record book, stay out.

I think the 2nd Era failure rule they made is an attempt to make it clear: move on, IF they ever get in, it won't be for decades and it may well be posthumous.
December 8, 2025 at 1:30 AM
Yep. And any other PED name. Your statistics literally do not matter, at all, if you used PED's to get them, and their usage effectively disqualifies you, full stop, no matter how much you rewrote the record book.
December 8, 2025 at 1:09 AM
Yep. The next time they can be on a ballot is 2031, so, six years to cool their heels
December 8, 2025 at 1:03 AM
That was the threshold; they, Sheffield and Valenzuela are now off the ballot for next Contemporary Era. They must reach 5 votes next time they're up or they're done for good.
December 8, 2025 at 12:57 AM
Well that certainly wasn't the outcome I was predicting
December 8, 2025 at 12:54 AM
This might come down to just, what remaining team hasn't dispersed. Because if you end 5-7, especially if you're down in the APR, you think your season is over and you're no longer needed for football and you're just, back to class. Who's around to pick up the phone anymore?
December 7, 2025 at 11:47 PM
Baylor and Rutgers both said no.

Oh this is getting weird now.
December 7, 2025 at 11:40 PM
Have to follow on social media, away from tv's right now
December 7, 2025 at 9:46 PM
Because he fumbled the snap on the last one?
December 7, 2025 at 9:29 PM
Shedeur may be able to screen pass and do a couple pretty throws a game but that man is way too prone to doing Very Dumb Things that will rip the oxygen out of an offense in the name of looking for a highlight reel play.
December 7, 2025 at 9:10 PM
tbh, talk to me about 'best' when one of the members actually makes it to the final again because they've gone two years without now.
