When it comes to sports worldwide, we don't even need scores or updates all the time. Even off-the-wall sports stories such as squirrels running onto the field or pigeons getting destroyed by a 100mph pitch are great stories for LeoThreads.
That's right: Dave Winfield did the same thing when he hit a pitch. I think he was w/ Toronto Blue Jays then, but I forget. At least Winfield was an important part of the Blue Jays team which won the 1992 World Series.
Was it a batted ball? For some reason I thought it was thrown. I seem to recall something in RF but it might have been where the line drive hit the bird.
I think it was the Blue Jays...kind of ironic a bird team.
Ironic is right. With Randy Johnson, his pitch killed the bird. With Dave Winfield, his hit killed the bird. It's been a long time since I saw the replay, so I forget the exact details of that hit.
my team got eliminated hahahaha, I just want to cry all day
As long as you thread about your sadness, then it helps.
Didn't see many people talk about tennis? :c or did I not see it
Haven't seen that either
it's ok it's not that popular I guess :(
Maybe you could start a threadstrom and see if people jump onboard!
Ya I guess I will try that :) today
No I havent seen anyone mentioning tennis. Nor any golf threads.
hmmm guess I will try to start something :D
At a minimum you can thread about your favorite sports.
There was more sport talk when the leagues were on, I think the league was the motivator
There are more sports out there other than football (soccer).
We have a lot playing now.
A lot of folks are mostly interested in football, especially me. The others are not really all that fun for me
There are millions of fans of the other sports. On Leofinance, even the smaller ones could help to increase traffic.
We need to get some cricket threads going.
You can start the threads, let's see if others follow suit
That is true. We can only start the threads and hope others jump in.
Well I think people who knows more about sports should take the lead at least people like me will start having interest and knowledge about sports.
That is true. It seems people need to take the lead on a lot of things on threads.
Cant rely on a few people.
Few can't do much at all.
I see you are pushing #baseball so it is a beginning. I watch and follow #nba and soon #amfootball. We have so much to get going on #threads
It will be interesting to see if things take off during #nfl season.
That is wildly popular. There should be some huge threadcasts.
Sport could be the next catalyst after Leofinance on Hive I think. It's just sad to see Sportstalksocial just being a totally dead community
It had so much potential. Really hit a major target. Yet nothing.
I still think it can be a success. But looks like @patrickulrich has been gone for a while and that we might need new blood in the community
Maybe. If a community is dependent upon one person, than it isnt a community.
We are going to see soemthing step up. It will be interesting to see what comes up when new smart contract platforms show up.
NBA Finals & Stanley Cup finals are in progress. Messi signed 2play w/ Miami MLS. Worldwide futbol is 24/7/365. Even cricket has its fans here.
Of course, if sports fans can't go 2 LeoThreads, SportsTalkSocial needs 2integr8 LeoThreads.
It seems that one is dead so I am not sure it will happen. They never had any development anyway.
Yes a lot going on. NBA and NHL are in their finals. Certainly popular for June.

An ode to Randy Johnson.
Didnt Dave Winfield have his own pigeon episode too?

Randy Johnson, 100%.
