  1. Sports What Ifs.

    Well, hopefully the second 1971 AL team is given to Dallas, not Milwaukee. Then, the Senators find a way to stay in Washington to this day.

  2. Sports What Ifs.

    That sounds like the best scenario. If you can avoid Finley, that would be great.

  3. Sports What Ifs.

    I was watching a video about the early-00's Sacramento Kings, and I did some research. I found out something interesting: Apparently, before the 1997 NBA draft, Chris Webber was close to being traded from Washington to the Sonics for Shawn Kemp and C Jim McIlvaine...

  4. Sports What Ifs.

    That would be quite a twist, and we may still see the A's in KC going strong instead of this mess that we have today: Also, the A's staying in KC (if they do, I presume that Finley won't be the owner) may affect other sports: 1. Without Charlie Finley in the Bay Area in 1970, maybe the...

  5. Sports What Ifs.

    If the Browns get to SB 24, I agree that it should keep him there until 1991. However, I don't see him turning around the team after that, and Belichick still may replace him. In 1989, Belichick (along with George Seifert) was under consideration for the Cleveland job. Seifert decided to...

  6. Sports What Ifs.

    My goodness. I never heard of this story before. Tragic: https://www.si.com/mlb/2021/06/18/alfredo-edmead-jr-pablo-cruz-life-after-death-daily-cover This guy was supposed to be the successor to Roberto Clemente in right field. He was tearing up the Carolina League at 19. Then, tragedy struck...

  7. NBA: The Difference a Trade (or no Trade) Makes

    The Spurs are still moving despite getting the #1 pick (and a chance at Robinson)?

  8. NBA: The Difference a Trade (or no Trade) Makes

    So, in this world, there is no four-team expansion in the late-80's, correct?

  9. NBA: The Difference a Trade (or no Trade) Makes

    This is when the Suns had a drug scandal, and would have moved if Jerry Colangelo wouldn't have bought the team before the 87 stock market crash:

  10. Sports What Ifs.

    If MJ didn't exist, the NBA would still be on CBS, and the Lakers wouldn't be there. NBC fixed it for them because they wanted Magic vs. Michael. Without MJ, I see a Celtics-Blazers final with the Blazers winning. Portland still had Jermaine O'Neal in 1999-00. They didn't trade him away until...

  11. Tank til you drop: the 91 Lindros race

    I know that he wanted to play in Pittsburgh. Didn't know about the Philly angle, though. They picked right before Pittsburgh that year, but they passed on Jagr.

  12. Tank til you drop: the 91 Lindros race

    As a Pens fan, we are screwed. No titles in 91 and 92 (and maybe not until the Crosby era, if the team still survives the 99 bankruptcy proceedings). However, Francis may go somewhere. I heard that Eddie Johnston was ordered to get rid of him and Ulfie. Also, if Ulf goes somewhere else, it...

  13. Tank til you drop: the 91 Lindros race

    I have no problem with that. I just wasn't sure how productive he really was for the second overall pick. After looking up his stats, he had a decent career: https://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=4968

  14. Tank til you drop: the 91 Lindros race

    I don't know if the Pens would want Craig Simpson back. They traded him to Edmonton in 87 for Paul Coffey.

  15. BOlieve: A Sports/Pop Culture Timeline

    I like it.

  16. Sports What Ifs.

    If this happens, I really believe that baseball doesn't come back until 1995. I see this eating up enough of the 1994 season to cancel it. They probably need someone like a Sonia Sotomayor to save it. Also, if it's resolved sooner, and the 95 season starts on time, maybe MJ doesn't come back...

  17. Sports What Ifs.

    Also, it seems to me that the NHL wants these Sun Belt teams to have success. Last year's Stanley Cup (Florida-Vegas) was probably their wet dream.

  18. Sports What Ifs.

    Here's another baseball one: I don't know if you know this, but apparently, the Dodgers were close to going bankrupt in the late-30's after owner Steve McKeever died.

  19. Sports What Ifs.

    Does this world include Ruth staying in Boston (for that to happen, their former manager that kept Ruth in line would have to come back around 1917-18 after helping his wife out with their baby for a few years)? If that happens, the Yanks have success (they had other good players), but not as...

  20. Sports What Ifs.

    Depends if the Colts take Drew Brees in 2001 or not. Also, I think that Peyton eventually helps with the turnaround in San Diego.
