    OT: Fox Sports Arizona is going away.

    It's been talked about for awhile but it looks like the Fox acquisition by Disney is going to happen with the shareholders giving approval today. To get the deal to go through, the DOJ told Fox that they would have to sell off their 22 regional sports networks so they wouldn't be owned by ESPN...

    Arizona Diamondbacks @ Colorado Rockies July 10 - July 12 2018

    Clay Buchholz should be ready after the All Star break I would think. He needs to be back in the rotation and Miller should be done.

    Arizona Diamondbacks @ Colorado Rockies July 10 - July 12 2018

    How long can they keep running Miller out there?

    Booker Upset with Front Office?

    This is all really much ado about nothing. This will be long forgotten by next year when it's time for Booker to sign his next contract. How next season plays out will be exponentially more important than this little dust up and even then, it's not easy to turn down $168 million.

    I Support Daryl Washington

    The thing that continually gets overlooked when comparing Gordon to Washington is that Gordon wanted to come back. When did you hear any noise from DWash demanding he be reinstated or claiming things were unfair or making any sort of a case at all? We don't even know if he actually applied for...

    The 2017-2018 Around the NBA thread

    You think players like Greg Munroe and Enes Kanter getting max contracts is agent spin? By not paying the top guys what they are worth, you end up with too many other players getting more than they are worth while making it possible for some true max players to all join one team without...

    The 2017-2018 Around the NBA thread

    That was actually something the owners pushed for and got. The players agreed to it because there are a lot more second and third tier guys who would be making a lot more money than first tier guys who were getting paid less. This article is a few years old but it does a good job explaining...

    The 2017-2018 Around the NBA thread

    Why shouldn't the top players get paid what they're worth? LeBron is severely underpaid because of it. Like I said you can keep the cap, but why restrict what percentage of the cap an individual player can get? Also makes the supeteam concept a lot harder to pull off. There are also way...

    The 2017-2018 Around the NBA thread

    The NBA needs to get rid of the max contract. Keep the cap but if a team wants to pay 90% of their cap on one player then let them. It's a way to help limit the superteams which aren't good for the long term health of the league.

    TO still doesn’t get it!

    If he doesn't want to go then no big deal and that's the thing. He's not punishing the voters by not showing up, he's only punishing himself. The voters don't care if he shows up or not either.

    Bryan Colangelo: World Class Idiot

    I'm curious as to the percentage of high profile people that have alternate twitter/social media accounts. I would be willing to bet that the number isn't small.

    LVG's Golden Knights Thread

    Read that if the Knights win that the sportsbooks will lose big time. A good number of people made some souvenir "joke" bets at the start of the season when the odds were in the several hundred to 1 range.

    Ritchie Incognito anyone?

    The dude is full blown mentally ill according the detailed report from this incident. I hope he gets the help he needs. http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/23594549/richie-incognito-believed-altered-paranoid-state-police-officers According to an incident report by the Boca Raton Police...

    How bad is Chad Williams?

    That assumes Fitz was available to do something like that. I don't know if that's the case. Doesn't he do some extensive traveling in the offseason? Maybe he did go to Fitz and Fitz said he was too busy. I don't see it as a red flag without having all the facts.

    Super Bowl LVII (2023) - Arizona

    I kinda thought that too but I'm sure that when the negotiations for the next two cities started, they weren't quite ready to fully embrace Vegas. Ironically, with the recent Supreme Court decision, sports gambling could look very differently in Arizona and Louisiana when the Super Bowls come...

    Cardinals Trading for CB Jamar Taylor

    I think Cardiac is thinking about his fourth season in the league where he led the team to a 9-7 record and a playoff appearance. No Pro Bowl appearances though. He was, however, Rookie of the month in October of 99.

    Bradford needs to be the starter...

    Not saying it's probable but what happens if Bradford plays incredibly well all season and the Cards make the playoffs? Do you sign him to another contract or do you let him go?

    Cardinals Trading for CB Jamar Taylor

    He wasn't very good for Miami and there was hope that a fresh start in Cleveland would do him some good. He was ok in Cleveland but nothing to get that excited about considering the reason he's available is that they got other people to replace him.

    NBA Draft Lottery Drawing - May 15th 2018

    The Suns numbers actually came up the first three times. The second two had to be thrown out because we already had #1.

    Supreme Court rules states can legalize sports betting

    Anyone with the means to rig a game is going to have the means to place the bet. That's true regardless of the ruling. The leagues will want to be paid an "integrity" fee from the states that legalize it but that's basically them just wanting their cut. The NFL allowing a team to go to Vegas...

    Houston Astros @ Arizona Diamondbacks May 4 - May 6 2018

    Wasn't there a similar situation that went against the D'backs a season or two ago? The way the rule is written if you are a defender covering a base and you miss the ball, you no longer have the ball or are fielding the ball so you need to be out of the way. It's not always possible to...

    Dodgers put Kershaw on DL will not pitch against DBacks Tuesday (5/8)

    After the game on Wednesday we don't play the Dodgers again until the end of August. Hopefully they'll be out of contention by then but I'm not counting on it.

    Los Angeles Dodgers @ Arizona Diamondbacks April 30 - May 3

    This is their window. With Corbin and Pollack free agents next year they might not get another chance like they have this year. Not that they can't be competitive without them but it makes the degree of difficulty that much harder.

    Arizona Diamondbacks @ Washington Nationals April 27 - April 29

    The series streak gets a lot more difficult for the next four series. Not just because of who we play but how many games each series is. 3 of the next 4 have an even number of games. 4 against the Dodgers, 3 against the Astros, 2 against the Dodgers then 4 against the Nationals. In the 4...
