Why is it taking so long for MLB to hear A-Rods appeal?
In the NHL a player ic called before the commissioner in a matter of days for infractions. Same goes for the NFL, who just announced a 6 game suspension for a failed drug test.
A-Rod should not be allowed to play an entire season while awaiting a n appeal since he is the only player appealing a suspension and it would be sad if his play while waiting changes standings for other teams.
Yes, I know this is in the players agreement (contract) but I still don't understand why it is taking months. If they didn't have the proof to begin with they shouldn't have brought up the charges until they did.

Former Mayor Flynn (also Ambassador to the Vatican) I understand as he is against a woman's right to choose.
2 AnswersElections9 years agoWhy didn't Thomas win fewest goals allowed?He won best goalie.See stats below.?
Goalie GPI GS Min GAA W L OT SO SA GA Sv% G A PIM
1 Luongo 60 60 3590 2.11 38 15 7 4 1753 126 .928 0 3 2
# Goalie GPI GS Min GAA W L OT SO SA GA Sv% G A PIM
30 Thomas 57 55 3364 2.00 35 11 9 9 1811 112 .938 0 3 13
Short of a 3 game difference Thomas had fewer GA and a better Sv% and more SO. They specifically mentioned fewest goals and save percentage.
Luongo is a good goalie but if it was voted on because of the numbers maybe someone can enlighten me.
Stats are from NHL.com from each teams site.
8 AnswersHockey10 years agoLove this site.Not. If I ask a question that my teams opponent doesn't kike it gets deleted.Why?
I do not get crude but seriously want to know why Vancouver can not hire a vocalist that that can sing our National Anthem? This was even brought up by newspaper reporters who said they have never heard it sung so poorly and completely flat unlike the rendition of BOTTH anthems in Boston
7 AnswersHockey10 years agoWhy doesn't the NHL go back to wooden sticks?
These composite sticks aren't worth what they pay for them. I've never seen so many broken sticks in each game as I have this year and it's not due to stick on stick but actually occurs in the act of shooting the puck.

Less acting to get penalties called when none existed would have been better for the game and their reputation.
7 AnswersHockey1 decade agoWhy does the NBS carry technical fouls over from series to series?
This only hurts the teams that advance. Is the NBA the only sport that does this? I know hockey doesn't.
3 AnswersBasketball1 decade agoWho thinks there should be fewer teams in the NHL?
As the NHL expanded they watered down the talent pool available to teams.I think 32 is too many.
We should also shorten the playoffs including number of teams that get in and first round should be the best of 5.
17 AnswersHockey1 decade agoNow that the draft weekend is over can anyone explain why any team would do this?

4 AnswersHockey1 decade agoLAD fans: How does it feel to hear Manny say he wants to finish his career in LA...?
then turn around in about a week and say he want to go to the Yankees to get back at the Red Sox? He used to say he wanted to finish in Boston and every year ask to be traded. Fun guy, good hitter but no loyalty to to team, teammates or fans.
11 AnswersBaseball1 decade agoWho want to see pro sports take back the scheduleing of the time games are played?
Here on the east coast we are always bowing down to prime time on the west coast.The media want tp get as many watching as possible,fine but they forget many of us in the east tune out so we can get up and go to work the next day.
The most recent example is the televising of the NBA Finals.9pm here 6pm for Laker fans.Guess who got to see every game in its entirety?
This happens in every sport.
Is there any way to let them know how sick we are of being ignored on the east coast?
Can we start games at 8pm instead of 9?What can be done?
Any ideas?
