XFL is done.

2020 sucks so much that it has ruined the fun of the XFL's inevitable implosion.

Major League Baseball has reportedly discussed league and divisional realignment for the 2020 regular season based on where teams play their spring training games.

According to Bob Nightengale of USA Today, the proposal would see half of MLB's 30 teams split into three divisions in Florida's Grapefruit League and the other 15 teams split into three divisions in Arizona's Cactus League.

MLB is searching for answers during the coronavirus pandemic, and one way to possibly play a shortened season would be to have teams play all their games at spring training sites in Florida and Arizona with no fans in attendance.

The 2020 MLB season was supposed to start in late March, but it was suspended indefinitely to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.

Grapefruit League:
NORTH: New York Yankees, Philadelphia Phillies, Toronto Blue Jays, Detroit Tigers, Pittsburgh Pirates
SOUTH: Boston Red Sox, Minnesota Twins, Atlanta Braves, Tampa Bay Rays, Baltimore Orioles
EAST: Washington Nationals, Houston Astros, New York Mets, St. Louis Cardinals, Miami Marlins

Cactus League
NORTHEAST: Chicago Cubs, San Francisco Giants, Arizona Diamondbacks, Colorado Rockies, Oakland Athletics
WEST: Los Angeles Dodgers, Chicago White Sox, Cincinnati Reds, Cleveland Indians, Los Angeles Angels
NORTHWEST: Milwaukee Brewers, San Diego Padres, Seattle Mariners, Texas Rangers, Kansas City Royals

Nobody's 100% sure but apparently one person hit another person in the face with one and the name stuck. It's been called that for about a century. The teams that play in Arizona are the Cactus League.

Edit: Wikipedia has a decent short write up.
I also didn't realize the CL teams were only in AZ.

Pats won't let him go. They need at least one veteran WR right now and he's it. TB has no need for a WR either so it's unlikely they'd try for him.

I think my annoyance about seeing Gronk come out of retirement is two fold, one being :patssay: and how he joked about coming back a bunch but never did. The second is, I was genuinely happy to see him retire when he did cause it felt like he was getting out while he was ahead and at the top of the world. He was pretty banged up at the time and hearing that he cried himself to sleep due to the amount of pain he was in the night of the super bowl LIII made it pretty clear that his retiring was probably the best thing for him and his long-term health. It was bittersweet and a nice ending. Now, it feels like I'm watching another Mike Webster or Junior Seau play out in real time.


Pats now have a boatload of draft picks though, so that should be interesting to watch play out. Belichick is still coaching so I don't expect the Patriots to suddenly go 2-14.

I wasn't on Belichick watch or anything, but it seemed like he came in for a minute, and gave the dog a treat as if he was bribing the dog to sit there and then walked away again.
