  1. That FG would have been good from 70
  2. One Weller Special Reserve and 20 mg edible.
  3. I’m half watching while prep cooking and I don’t think I’ve seen the bears with the ball yet.
  4. The game appears to be on CBS
  5. I really want them to go after Fried, he’s just the guy to solidify the group. It pains me so much to know they aren’t even involved.
  6. No, no, no, no.
  7. The point is to make dump trucks full of money that they can give .00005% to their hand-picked politician so they can get bigger dump trucks, which they're going to need.
  8. I'm not against it, but they will have to go the trade route and to get pitching through trades is costly indeed.
  9. But as I noted in a differnt thread, Bellinger is likely tied to Soto in a way that he's a consultation prize. The longer Soto drags this out, and he's a Boras dude, so like January, the less valuable the money will be. If the Cubs discount him, then they are not accomplishing the reason for trading him. If they're not discounting him and not taking back a bad contract (which again negates the reasons), they aren't getting much for him but salary relief. The urgency part makes their hand weaker still.
  10. They'll blame the weather. It's always something that is uncontrollable so we can all shrug our shoulders. It doesn't matter. Jed is a placeholder. Whoever comes next will be a clone. That's what the Ricketts want.
  11. Question: If you could transport these guys to the USA (please don't come at me, Trump) and put them in Southern California, would they be standouts?
  12. Nice work for a beta cuck.
  13. They want to reallocate the money toward pitching for reasons (they think their league average or slightly below offense is good). Who is to say the wind blowing in isn't the new normal with climate change? But I get it. The problem for Jed is that Bellinger will likely not have a market until Soto signs. So, by the time he's moved the pitching they are looking for may not be available in a trade or free agency. Jed 3D chessed himself into a nice box.
  14. he was hired well before Joe was fired.
  15. I think Brown's days as a starter are over.
  16. The right coaching staff and the Bears are probably a playoff contender.
  17. Definitely a weird year in college football. Saban created a power vacuum.
  18. I guess, but they should be counting World Series rings.
  19. One wonders how much money is enough? I suppose if you divide $30M -$50M in annual profit five ways it doesn't seem like a lot of money per kid. Then again, all they are doing is sitting on their asses and collecting coin.
  20. Go Michigan Go USC Go Vaderbilt Go aTM Go Ga Tech
  21. If they trade Belli it will probably be paying down his contract to get someone of value. So it will be Blli + money. They aren't going to save his entire salary and get anyone who can help the MLB team.
  22. I'll be glad when he's non-tendered tomorrow and we can put this thread to bed with squally.
