Here we go with the World Cup semifinals. I expect all the soccer nerds to tell us all about the TV ratings for today’s games and how they were so spectacular. Brazil-Germany play today at 4 EST. The Dutch and Argentina play on Wednesday at 4. You think casual fan will be calling in sick or taking a vacation day for those games? Will people watch? Of course. There isn’t shit on, especially live sports right now.
Chew on this from @ESPNStatsInfo:
Adam Dunn’s HR– 453rd of his career, passes Carl Yastrzemski into 35th place all-time in HR
Dunn turns 35 in November. He shouldn’t have a problem getting to 500. That should get him in the HOF, right? The guy has led the league in strikeouts four times during his career. That’s good, right?
