Nothing near this severe will happen to the patriots. Kraft has too much power and influence in the inner circles of the NFL.

Considering Kraft is going to probably get off of a federal prostitution indictment that tip toes around sexual slavery and human trafficking with out as much as a slap on the wrist; I’m sure he isn’t the least bit concerned about His football team caught breaking rules for the third or fourth time.

I do a LOT of sports betting. Baseball is by far the most lucrative sport to bet on.

Before betting baseball, it was as boring as they come for me. But since I started seriously betting, baseball is the second most exciting sport to watch. 
 

Having watched so much, I would genuinely enjoy it without betting now. It really is a chess match and you learn to appreciate it immensely 

There are a ton of things that if you got invested in it and grew to know the finer points you would appreciate it in a different way.  Hell, due to my wife’s passion for the subject, I was forced to step up my “purse game.”  Now its interesting as hell to me.

For me baseball would be more fun to watch if they didn’t play so many dang games.  But that being said, one of the things that makes MLB what it is...is the fact you have to be a little better than other masters of your craft day after day after day after day for an insanely long time.  In some ways it reminds me of NASCAR.  Perfection in the short term is expected.  The sport is geared towards figuring out who can maintain near perfection for the longest.

Holy poo, the Astros were fined 5 million, they lose their 1st and 2nd round picks for 2020 and 2021, and their manager and GM are suspended for one year. Now this is how you punish a team that cheats. What will happen to the Patriots? Probably a small fine.

As College teams that are cheaters are forced to forfeit wins so should the Astros AND Red Sox. Dodgers should receive the World Series trophy in both instances.

This keeps getting bigger. Now the Red Sox and Alex Cora will part ways.

Does he have a point, though?

Of course he does, he should be allowed back in baseball. However, should there still be tougher penalties coming, like to players, etc?

This thing keeps spreading, Carlos Beltran is out in New York! Could there be more coming down the road? Everyone the players and coaches are tainted now! Wow

Major black eye for baseball. This is about to get out of control! There is no telling how many players are involved!

I am an unapologetic fan of Tom Brady and the furthest thing from a conspiracy theorist but I believe the rumor that Brady has always had something similar taped to his ankle and would be buzzed by Ernie Adams (or someone else) when there was blindside pressure coming. 

Always wondered how Brady could seemingly sense what he couldn't see better than anyone else in the league and always get rid of the ball like he did at the last second. Not sure if it will ever come out or not, but I think it could be a thing. Still a Brady fanboy regardless. 

Now excuse me while I slip back into the darkness before rising from the abyss to post a thoughtful perspective on some other very random topic in a couple of months.
