    So take a flier on anyone alive. Except Justin Germano. You are something else.

    :roll: ok Austin kearns. Nice catch.

    What's the issue? Nash divorced his wife the day after their baby was born. It was black.........Richardson was traded within days. It was Leandro Barbosa, not J Rich. In the photo shoot she did with her kids, they all look white.

    that's certainly possible, but it's also possible that his mechanics (which have always been iffy) are even more out of what, and that's caused his velocity loss and horrible command. that being said, there's really no point trying to straighten out a pitcher who is going to be a free agent in two months. He's a wreck mentally right now.

    Probably true, wasn't sure if they had soured on him enough to move him.

    Would we be interested in Rendon? Or is he too risky a return at this point?

    I talked to Dayton Moore today for ten minutes. Right before he went to DFA sanchez. I asked him about garza, told him they should send us Wil myers for him. He laughed, you're all welcome.

    what 3b prospect is that? 2 questions: 1. The FO has just started looking in earnestat minor league players at the lower levels of almost every farm system? 2. What about Baez? Baez has played all of 40 games in A ball. Kid's years away. Aside from this, many 3B prospects end up as major league 2B. Man Baez at second is exciting.

    Enjoy it now, it's about to get a lot worse. http://pendletonpanther.files.wordpress.com/2008/11/debbie.gif?w=480 [expletive]. I think it's more exciting than something to be sad about.

    I think Greinke ends up with a city like Atlanta, Baltimore, St. Louis, Milwaukee, etc. and avoids the big-city stress of NY, Chicago, & LA . St Louis is a good fit for him. Man I hope he doesn't think so.

    I doubt that Greinke wants to come to us. He left KC because he wanted no part of being in a rebuilding process and they had better prospects on the way than we do right now.

    He's exciting for sure, but I'm not getting how he's ranked higher than Javier Baez? Would anyone here really trade Baez for Hamilton straight up? I sure wouldn't. If Hamilton had any power at all, I'd think about it. But as it is, no way. Exactly, and yet everyone has Hamilton higher. I don't get it.

    Human bodies can't handle jumping like that.

    Holy hell, no. The world was in love with Jordan. '92 was before his "baseball vacation" and before all of the infidelity stuff was made public. The world was in love with the brand and appreciated the talent; most basketball fans that weren't Bulls fans couldn't stand the guy for a variety of reasons well before his "retirement," largely for his on the court attitude. Jordan was a notorious douchebag practically from day #1, and it was awesome. But during his run, most everyone WAS a Bulls fan. I think there is a chance if LeBron can reel off a few in a row a lot of people will become Heat fans. His game is such a joy to watch.

    I was gonna bring up the Jordan Rules. I think a lot of us are remembering what we thought of MJ as young kids growing up Bulls fans. There are a lot of people who didn't like him.

    I've been reading that MSU is the likely destination. Well in that case, [expletive] him. Yep, and now we see why Tom Izzo was so quick to throw Mike Thomas and Illinois under the bus. It helped him out. [expletive] troll.
  21. illiniguy
    I agree, but you know how perceptions can be.
  22. illiniguy
    If he keeps this up maybe, but even then I think they will likely think he's a PCL monster. Maybe not though.
  23. illiniguy
    I say we try to go the RA Dickey route. Make him a writer?
  24. illiniguy
    Any chance we don't cut Simpson this offseason?
  25. illiniguy
    So he won for best play over the guy who leaped over the wall to rob a homer?
