Haha probably! Falcons have Ridder, complete unknown. Saints have Winston who’s been hurt the last few seasons. Bucs have ??

2023 Vikings Off Season Thread
Tom Brady retires again. He says for good this time. We will see. The NFC South has some bad, bad QBs. With Brady out of the picture, the top veteran QBs to target are Rodgers, Carr, and dare I say Kirk?

Sean Payton heading to Denver to coach up Russell Wilson. Denver had to give the Saints their 2023 1st round and 2024 2nd round pick for Payton and a 2023 3rd. Not a fan of the move. San Fran DC DeMeco Ryans named HC of the Texans. Love this move. Ryans is a stud and former Texans great!

Wanted: Your thoughts about Randy Dobnak
I’ll be rooting for him, but he will have a higher hill to climb back into the majors than other prospects. When he was healthy he was a very serviceable back of the rotation pitcher.

Keith Law Top 100 Prospects
Sure, but is Lewis a top 100 prospect if he’s playing a non premium position like 2B, 3B, or corner OF? I don’t know. I’m just speculating what K Law may be thinking as he’s putting together his list. Overall I enjoy K Law a lot. He marches to the beat of his own drum and has analyzed more prospects than I ever will in my life.

Keith Law Top 100 Prospects
Yeah, hopefully we see former top 100 prospect Balazovic have a bounce back season in 2023. Marco Raya is the only other pitching prospect I’ve seen ranked in the top 100 on the usual publications. Maybe Connor Prielipp makes the jump to the top 100 now that he’s recovered from TJS.

Keith Law Top 100 Prospects
Harsh, but understandable. Since Lewis was drafted, KLaw has been saying Lewis will end up in CF. The path to playing time is muddied now that Correa and Buxton are locked in long term.

Yep. They could conservatively 5x the amount of subscribers without the archaic local blackout rules in place.

The RB was in the vicinity. Ref show at it again.

I am furious for Bengals fans. Hard not to think the NFL is rigged.

Is Purdy able to pass? Are they just biding time for Johnson to get out of the locker room? This is crazy.

Oh my. Wildcat time. What other choice do they have?

What face mask? - This ref crew. False start is also not a penalty to these officials.

They do that today and they have over 3.5 million out of market fans subscribed.

Glad to know my dad is hip, now, with it and wow as a 62 year old and cut the cord on cable. He is not a drooling old fool and perfectly capable of using more than 1 remote and 1 app on a TV.

Sure. Giving customers more for less always works for the consumer. You were proposing a 43% off solution from MLB.tv’s current price point. How is that going to make up St Louis’ $100 million TV contract that will be lost when the bankruptcy becomes reality? I see MLB.tv offering several payment terms if they purchase all of the RSN TV broadcasts. You want all MLB games and MiLB games with no restrictions? $250-300 annually. One team and their MiLB? $200 annually. One MLB team? $140. They could also offer monthly payment options for fans of teams that may not be competitive by July 31.

MLB keeps the total subscribers close to the vest, but this source estimates they had 3.5 million subscribers in 2020. That’s just for the small segment of out of market fans. That number would skyrocket if they remove local blackouts. $140 for 6 months of baseball games is the equivalent of a Netflix subscription. It’s not insane money these days.

They don’t have enough subs because you can’t watch your home team and the archaic local blackouts. They’re catering to a small segment of fans right now. Out of market fans…

Absolutely. Corporations are moving their ad money to streaming services instead of cable.

If MLB purchases the broadcast rights, I think we can say goodbye to local broadcasters like Bremer and Morneau. They’ll have a rotating National crew like they do in NFL.

That’s not even the current cost of MLB.tv. Let alone having full access to every game in MLB/MiLB.
