I don’t think footballize is a real word. Whether it is or not, you can't deny that it's a very cool arrangement of consonants and vowels. I agree!

I rarely listen to ESPN -- prefer MLB and NFL network
Don't like the personalities on ESPN -- its not sports anymore

It's 2018.....words can be whatever they want. In my world anyway.... Hey I completely agree, I love making up new words. I just did yesterday when I used the word "packageable." To be phonetically correct, the first e has to go. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk Ha, you're right--I tried spelling it "packagable" and I still got that stupid red squiggly line under the word that signals a misspelling. Usually I double check but I just assumed it wasn't really a word!

Serious question to "anybody".... Knowing that standings determine playoff participation, and other than what seems to be a feeble attempt to footballize baseball, what is the purpose of Power Rankings?...do they have any actual value to anything baseball at all? Done right, I think they attempt to look at teams played so far and margin of victory to try and give you an idea beyond the record of how good a team might be. Which illustrates how poorly ESPN handles theirs, as Phailadelphia has played a lot of bad teams to get to their 16-11 record and should be ranked about 5 spots lower than the Braves. ESPN has however always had a serious bias.

My favorite part is the lead in that states "the hard-charging, young Phils pushed their way into the conversation while putting in an early claim for a place in the suddenly very interesting NL East race."
Hard-charging? Do these clowns even pay attention to what's going on? Since last week's rankings, all the "hard-charging" Phillies did was drop two series at home to the D-backs and Braves.

The failies are pretty good, though. If Arrieta pitches well, they'll have a nice 1-2 with him and Nola. Their pen is good, too, but I suspect the masturbator will destroy the pen before the season is over, in spite of the fact that he invented baseball.
