  1. Only if he gets injured.
  2. It’s not a Fields issue. It’s a coaching issue. Very few QBs come into the league as a finished product. Fields is the same player he was when they drafted him. I have a hard time believing he’s not coachable and it not getting rumored out.
  3. Get comfortable boys, this is going to be a horsefeathers show for three more months. And then the off-season and the season, and the off-season and season after that. Might be the worst GM hire since Matt Millen. Maybe worse when all is said and done.
  4. I’m not going to make it to this game. Early teal season starts tomorrow
  5. There are a lot of hot Dougs in the RF bleachers?
  6. I don't care for Alabama, but I have a lot of respect for the way Saban runs his program. These kids come to Alabama and every one of them is a star. He does not care. But the other and more interesting thing is that he's slipping or I should say the system has changed in a way that talent is more evenly distributed across the big time football environment. He used to be able to rely on talent and his coaching staff to win and now that's not as pronounced an advantage as it once was.
  7. Alabama is starting a different QB this week. I kind of expected that after the poor play against Texas.
  8. sully must have gotten kicked off of Twitter because I haven't seen him tweet anything.
  9. Those ads make me very much less likely to drink Sam Adams and appreciate anything from or around New England. It's like the advertising agency who made them hate Sam Adams beer so much they tricked them into thinking the ads would make people buy their product.
  10. Because they are nepobabies with no knowledge of the industry. The Ricketts lucked into Theo or the Cubs would be in the same spot. I assume after some period of time the Cubs will be in the same spot. They will have to luck their way into the right hire.
  11. Bellinger is 28 and some team is going to offer him a 5-year deal. It's likely the team will be upside down by the end of it, but that is the nature of FA. I have no idea what to think about the Japanese pitcher. However, I'd be leary of any long term deal just from the pitchers tend to break perspective. I trust Jed and his team to evaluate and get who they target. They most often do. I tend to think that a lot of the Cubs' plans hinge on what Stroman intends to do.
  12. Wow. That did not take long. I wonder if Jed is going to be a candidate.
  13. Aren’t they playing Atlanta at home?
  14. I believe that Ohtani's price was not significantly hurt at all by the elbow injury. I also don't believe for a second that the Rickeets would ok spending $30-50M/year/6-10years on Ohtani and then pick up Alonso's salary and extension. And a trade for him only makes sense for the Cubs if they can get an extension. So, although I have my doubts that they are serious bidders for either of them should Aloson become available, It's outside of my imagination that they would actively pursue both of them.
  15. This should be a fun thread. I have faith in this team to make it to the playoffs.
  16. ok. These things happen in the course of a season. It's really bad for it to happen now. It's why people are wrong who say games are less important in April. It drives me up the fricken wall. Every year the Cubs come our with a fluid bullpen and see what happens. It's a awful strategy. Also, I like Abuck and respect his negative opinions of Ross and the Cubs.
  17. They look like their license plate though.
  18. I really like the Rockies City connect uniforms.
  19. Morel overswinging. Somebody needs to tell him the ball carries in Colorado.
