And I assume everyone reads sports illustrated, listens to Bill Simmons’ podcasts and has Dan Patrick’s radio show on in their car every morning. We are both wrong. Plus it’s October, most people in this country, myself included, would burn anything with the words “New York” on them in October. This is the time of the year when the Yankees ruin baseball for everyone else and inspire countless discussions about a salary cap.
I’ve had two already since yesterday, I would put the over/under* on salary cap discussions in the next two weeks at about 10.
*for those of you reading the new yorker and not sports illustrated, over/under is a sports gambling term for bets based on a total score or other stat being more or less than a given number, not based on a win or a loss.
