  1. 10 Commandments! Let My People Go! Gangster calf worshiper, what could be better?
  2. IMHO - his destiny is as a closer. I said that when they drafted him.
  3. Did you miss CB Bucknor's performance over the weekend?
  4. That's because you are an insufferable horsefeathers. No need to overthink it. IDK give a horsefeathers that they lost, and I don't give a horsefeathers about the WBC. I do give a horsefeathers about how they project American ideals and social morals. But because you are an insufferable horsefeathers, you pick one thing to glom onto and miss the bigger picture. I have about all I can take of people like you.
  5. I don't know what the exact ingredients are for my ambivalence about the Cubs. But it's some combination of the lack of ST games covered, the owners, our society in context, and the boorish behavior of the American team in the WBC. I've listened to a few innings of the games on Sirius, but I just don't give a horsefeathers about this team. I mean, I've been on this site since 2003, and I so don't care about the Cubs. I've never experienced this before.
  6. The good thing about Jamo is that we will usually know what version we are getting right off the bat.
  7. The owners want to do away with low A leagues, drafting high schoolers, and a bunch of other cost-saving measures.
  8. Get used to it, because if the owners have their way, it will become much more common in the future.
  9. gonna be hard to come up with three more runs, but the Nationals bullpen is pretty bad.
  10. I have a VPN (don't judge) with an ad blocker, and the site won't open for me on Safari. I'm not sure if that is by design or not, but it's going to limit how much I interact with NSB(B) if it is intentional.
  11. More than 84 if they are going to win the division.
  12. Look at the NFL and NBA, there are teams that always compete and teams that seldom "compete" or play to win. A salary cap isn't going to fix bad organizations. It's a lollypop for fans who think "these guys are just playing a game". All the owners are raking in obscene profits, and the value of their teams continues to skyrocket. This is about diminishing the value of labor, and no working person should support something like this.
  13. Lol, think about what you just wrote. They don't have to raise their payroll with the status quo. If they push in cap, they will most assuredly have to do so.
  14. It's not going to be the small markets that are forcing the lockouts. It's going to be the Cubs, Red Sox, and a couple of others who don't want to have to pay. The majority of the "small markets" are well below the leaked floor.
  15. There are many long, thin muscles in the lower back and shoulder area that take a long time to heal. If it were a structural thing like Bryant, that would be really bad. Hopefully, it's not something like that, but saying not one event caused it is kind of too much and too little information at the same time.
  16. I wonder if they put in any opt-outs
  17. Because once every 20 or so years, things happen.
  18. It doesn't matter what it's backed up by when it's so obviously inaccurate. If you want to say the Cubs should win the division, that's great. But saying they are projected to win with 84 games and win the division is not likely to happen, and gives the face validity of "backed by a bunch of advanced statistics". It's nonsense dressed up in fancy clothes.
