  1. We will never know, but I think he gets the 2023 comfortably to the playoffs.
  2. No horsefeathers way!!!!!! Best move of the offseason. Also, you could knock me over with a feather right now. I never would have thought that would happen.
  3. He's beat. I remember a story from Moneyball when Billy Beane knew he wasn't going to make it. It reminds me of the look Fields has on his face on the sideline and the tentative way he is playing now. He's paralyzed by fear of doing the wrong thing. Fields may have more natural talent than all the other QBs he will be playing, but it won't matter.
  4. The Cardinals picking another #1 from USC is giving me flashbacks. Leinart was a guy I was sure was going to be a great NFL QB. .
  5. The best thing for Merivs is a trade to a team that will let him play. Including him in a deal for Alonso makes a lot of sense for Mervis, the Cubs, and the Mets. Ross will not use him correctly. I'm not confident Ross has the ability to break any rookie in.
  6. Hard pass on Hoskins. They aren't striking lighting in the bottle again.
  7. that is way fucked up.
  8. The point of playing is to try to win. If they are winning it solves a lot of problems that come from losing. It's pretty simple. The frustrating part is that knowledgeable fans can see the train coming and the people running the Bears would rather pretend they already moved the track or at least moving it now. They are a bad team with a bad QB who is not going to suddenly be good through force of will. Fields is awful. The main problem is that there are so many very bad teams in the NFL right now. I have faith in the Bears to finish with one of the top five worst records though.
  9. Ricketts hand is moving Jed’s mouth. They are the same
  10. Big WMU vs CMU game! THE rivalry continues!
  11. Votto may not retire but he has made many statements that when he does he’s going to disappear. I don’t know if he’s just saying stuff, but I think the last quote I read was something like “I’m ready to delete all my social media and go away”. I doubt he’s interested in coaching, not sure about the booth though.
  12. Tom I hope you have a towel or something https://www.bleachernation.com/cubs/2023/11/05/shohei-ohtani-sleeper/
  13. Sox declined option. Bad time for a bad season.
  14. Call me crazy But McCarthy has the makings of a strong pro QB. Maybe not a deep ball threat, but he makes really good decisions.
  15. Firmly on the sign Nola team. I’d like them to trade for a good young pitcher too. Either someone ready or on a roster. I’m looking at you Seattle. i really think if the sign Bellinger they should trade PCA for the best young pitcher they can find. I don’t think they are going to reel in Bellinger though.
  16. Alabama offensive line is manhandling LSU at the LOS. Alabama is a much better team, but LSU’s QB is the best player on the field.
  17. Should have been linemen down field on GA. They had a guard and a tackle 10 yards beyond the LOS.
  18. Clemson all over ND at home.
  19. Not the first year, but the rest of them. This is the NFL and he had a near-unprecedented amount of money and draft picks. it doesn't take five years to get better. I suppose the fact that Fields was/is awful is not his fault either. But he's created situations where he's not allocating money and draft picks well. The team is awful and it's not round up,.
  20. Jorge opted out of his contract. Wil be interested to see what he gets. He was making $12M/year.
  21. According to rumor (so take it as you will) the Michigan dude was on the Central Michigan sideline when they played MSU. So this is going to be very bad not just for Michigan. Outside of MHJr this is as weak an OSU team has looked in long time. At least since before Tressel.
  22. Good thing, BN had something out that said the Cubs were looking at the former but not the latter.
  23. That's a given. I don't know what happened at the beginning of the season when he actually looked like a starter, but it would be nice if he could do that again for a full season as a swingman.
