    You are FAST. So what the hell does that mean?

    DKnobler ‏@DKnobler Marlins announce Carlos Zambrano going to the bullpen. LeBlanc to rotation.

    Do I need to post he pic of her face again? She's hideous. She has a face?

    I thought the whole segment about Ozzie and Ibis was kind of touching, and the "you're my bitch" line was a joke after saying really nice things aobut her. My wife and I both thought it was hilarious. Also touching was Z's comments about Chicago and how he misses it. I still love that guy.

    This is quickly turning into a discussion around what Dempster can/can't do! I was just about to google for the same thing!

    Gameday still showing a double. How's it look?

    Amnesty is only for people that were already signed when the CBA was signed, if I recall correctly. Gotcha.
  8. ManCrushOnNomar
    Why not sign the offer sheet with the backload and amnesty him in the third year?

    This is exactly the kind of stuff I'm talking about. They're losing money from an entire market because of ancient rules that aren't so black and white anymore.

    The network(s) carrying the games charge so much to the cable provider to carry their channel in their packages. A large draw of many networks which broadcast baseball is the exclusive rights to those games. Right now, if you live in Chicago, the only way you get non-WGN/WCIU games is to subscribe to a cable package which includes Comcast Sportsnet. If you have the option of buying mlb.tv to get your Cubs fix, cable subscriptions go down, CSN cannot charge as much because they're not drawing in subscribers, and if CSN can't charge as much, they aren't making as much on the Cubs, thus they won't pay out the same for their TV contract. ETA: shut up TT I get that for in-market, but what about for areas that don't have access to cable providers who carry said networks? Wouldn't they stand to make MORE money if they didn't black out those weird blackout zones with no access to baseball?
  11. ManCrushOnNomar
    I don't understand how blackouts earn the team more money. Can someone smarter than me explain the business behind it?
  12. ManCrushOnNomar
    This a million times.

    I see what you did there. :hello:

    No he doesn't and like pretty much everything Hawk talks about, he's wrong. Pierzynski could have broken Zobrist's ankle with his slide yesterday and I wouldn't have faulted Zobrist one bit if he would have gone Michael Barrett and decked Pierzynski. The wasn't a takeout slide, it was total bush league. Pierzynski deserved to get plunked, he did, and that should have been the end of it. Instead, that moron Sox pitcher decided to try to hit Zobrist, which he couldn't even do successfully. He deserved to get tossed and he did because it was completely unnecessary. This. I don't understand why so many people think Hawk was right about this. At least this morning on the Score Hawk said that warnings should have been issued after AJ got plunked (which he admitted he deserved). I agree with that, but the lack of a warning doesn't mean it isn't within the ump's judgement to toss someone for blatantly going after somebody. Wegner was well within his right to judge intent, and there was absolutely intent. Hawk's the one who should go to umpiring school and learn the rules.

    Nomar.

    First thing I thought of too. I'll never forget that game.

    As much as he's killed the Cubs his whole career, I really like Berkman.

    The Ricketts have to realize that this kind of political alignment in a very public fashion will lead to boycotts, right? I'm not picking a side here, but a baseball team shouldn't have a political agenda.

    Hope his middle name is Duk! If only he was an offensive lineman so we could hear about his girth, initial punch, and ability to get to the 2nd level. Or a quarterback so we can judge his pocket presence and release point. Or a pass rusher to talk about his penetration and sack ability.
  22. ManCrushOnNomar
    I knew it.

    I have no confidence in him and he doesn't deserve any confidence in anybody until he has a productive offseason. I'm getting the feeling that it'll be more of the same in the offseason, as they'll re-tool the 3rd and 4th lines with a bunch of old guys. If Vancouver keeps Schneider, I'd seriously try to get Luongo. They can't go into next season with the same bums in goal. Is Corey Crawford a Stanley Cup winning goaltender? If you're saying yes, you're not telling the truth. Is Luongo? I'd say that's a resounding no.

    Damn, apparently I missed my pick. Yeah, we cut the time to 12 hours each. If you want to change the pick, though, you can. Andy hasn't picked yet. I was thinking along the same lines, but it looks like somehow Greg Childs has been overlooked so far. I know he's coming off of injury, but his pro day was impressive. Let's go with him over McNutt.
