  1. Who is the black dude with the nose ring they keep showing on the Dallas sideline?
  2. Bears look a little flat to start the game.
  3. This is a case where they send Canario to Switzerland and get the platelet-rich plasma therapy that they give to elite skiers when they destroy their ankles skiing.
  4. The speculation is he's headed to NY.
  5. Rizzo age 25 stats SO AVE. OBP SLG OPS 105 .278 .387 .512 .899 I think that is a realistic line for Mervis next year.
  6. When Contreras signs a reasonable deal with the Cardinals I'm going to go ape. You've been warned.
  7. Ludwig Espinoza Great name or greatest name?
  8. I know there is nothing to be done about it, but the luxury tax threshold seems to me to be low relative to the salary in MLB.
  9. Well, that was fun. I don't know where it came from, but they actually looked like a team capable of playing winning football.
  10. It's sort of weird looking at the top 25: No - Texas, Texas A&M, Oklahoma, Florida, Florida State, Nebraska, Miami, or Notre Dame Yes - Tulane, Kentucky, Illinois, Wake Forest, and North Carolina
  11. If I could bet on one game, I'd take the points and bet on Florida.
  12. Syracuse is unquestionably the most overrated team in the country, so I'll say no chance they beat Clemson. And it was Mississippi. I think Clemson is a pretty weak team this year. If they make it to the playoffs, they're going to get rolled.
  13. I really thought the Yankees matched up well with the Astros and would give them a good series. So far, not so much.
  14. All those things that guy talked about are coachable problems. If they've tried to correct them and he hasn't taken to the correction it's on him.
  15. When Law was confronted with the data on Twitter he coped out of the argument. He's just lazy with a good gig. And he's never met a Cubs prospect he likes. He uses the Kyle logic, that most don't make it so why not be negative about everyone? You're bound to be right 90% of the time.
  16. I'm going to go out on a thin dead limb and say the Bears will only win one more game this year against the Lions at home.
  17. Big game tonight. I like the Yankees to move on and play the Astros.
  18. Not broken, but certainly boring.
  19. There’s a large gap between those two and Tennessee? Yes, I think Alabama is down this year. Saban is losing his touch (?) (I don't know the right words). They've been sloppy and not well-disciplined all year. RE: Tennessee v. Georgia, we will find out on Nov. 5.
  20. Very sound logic, however, I would like to say that whatever they do with Abreu should have no impact on signing a big SS. Abreu's contract is a short-term allocation of resources that should not affect the longer term. If they're thinking that signing him means they aren't going to be able to sign Correa, it would be very Cubs like. If it's either/or I hope they don't sign him, but I think they should take the salary hit for a few years. I do think that they won't be targeting pitching through FA, but more likely through trades.
  21. At least one of Alabama, Clemson, or Mississippi will lose this week. Also, pretty clearly the two best teams right now are Georgia and OSU and there is a large gap between them and the rest.
  22. A little bit of both. This week, I focused more on FCS than FBS schools. A friend of mine who is much more active in gambling focuses on the Patriot and Ivy Leagues in football and the Ivy and Northeast conferences in basketball. His theory is Vegas can only allocate a certain amount of resources and typically the smaller conferences in both sports can present better value than major conferences. Plus, their transfer portals are more predictable as well as recruiting classes. Don’t you think Vegas has a guy too?
  23. Down goes ND.
  24. College football is so much more entertaining and enjoyable than pro football.
  25. Young is very good.
