    Look, I know you live in California where there's no winter, but I don't want it to be November yet!

    Exactly. Don't bug me while I'm taking a [expletive] piss for god sakes. If you can't take a leak in peace it would piss you off. LOL! That likes me like Jay more. I can imagine this guy all excitedly coming up to him, not even a big football fan just happy to bump into a former Vandy guy, who happens to be famous. I would prefer that celebrities not hide their true personality and just be a stuck up dick if that's what you are. I remember that story almost a year about involving Quentin Tarrantino and that idiot girl from the PR firm that he was hitting on, and the story she wrote keeps casually mentioning how Jamie Foxx is with them when they leave the bar and go to Q's house, etc. And Foxx never says a word to her or even acknowledges her presence for the entire time he is around them, which seems like it was for several house, at a party, on a long car ride, and at Q's house. I hope you're posting from a really shitty phone, because if you're not, you're nearing hccf status with the typos.

    I assume this is Non-Edmonds category? [expletive] Edmonds. Funny side note, my buddy ran into him last night at the Cards game. He was being a total douche because he didn't want to deal with any fans, even though he considers himself a Cardinal still. What a turd. MORE DETAILS, DAMMIT. And please tell me there are pictures. I'm usually not completely dumb, but I can't tell if you're screwing with me or not. Given your history, I'll just assume you are and not post the picture of him pushing his kid out of the shot with my buddy.

    I think that may be more likely than most might think. Didn't he have a pretty consistent record of excelling while not playing more than about 130 games? You get somebody in here to manage that will actually acknowledge that and he probably has a bit of a bounce back year just by not playing as much. Plus, if he's not stupidly stuck in the 3 spot (yes, I know it doesn't matter) in higher pressure situations, that may help as well.
  6. mul21
    Any thoughts that he may have been having some sort of negative after effects from getting impaled last year?
  7. mul21
    and thats saying something considering where its been You should have more self respect than that

    I pretty much agree with the original list with the exception that I'd like to see ARam brought back on a 2 year deal with a 3rd year option (mutual?, team?, vesting based on games played?) if it's financially feasible. Who knows what Ricketts will give Theo the leeway to do?
  9. mul21
    Really, this should have very little effect on his job. In fact, he probably gets paid the same to deal with less crap he doesn't really give a damn about. Go make more money so we can buy more good players.
  10. mul21
    That would be make sense, considering what the Sox got for Guillen. I'm kind of expecting that we've seen the last of Josh Vitters in this deal. Honestly, I don't want him if it takes that much.
  11. mul21
    That Packers O line is no great shakes, but they're certainly better than the Bears. They're also helped by not having an insane person calling plays and having without question the deepest receiving corps in the league.
  12. mul21
    Yeah, Valverd's a massive douche, but I'm ok with the stupid little dance after K'ing Arod to end the series.
  13. mul21
    You think he's just too tall? Who's the biggest defensively solid 2B you can think of? Sandberg? DeRosa?
  14. mul21
    Didn't he become West Side Rooter? WHOOSH.......
  15. mul21
    MLB run environments have a lot more to do with sabermetric-friendly front offices eschewing the moneyball-era trend towards lumbering sluggers and instead finding value in defense-oriented players. "Roid withdrawal" likely has very little to do with yearly variations at this point, as long as it's been since the testing began. I'd imagine most of that effect was felt in the first 1-2 seasons. That said, very interesting link. Thanks. Are you saying that player is a less common type of player in MLB in general right now or that they just aren't seeing the field because front offices have decided they'd rather prevent runs than hope they get something out of the lumbering guys at the plate?
  16. mul21
    Really? Skip Oswalt for Halladay on 3 days rest? That would be Dusty level dumb.
  17. mul21
    Hell yeah. When you're 1-2, who cares about style points? I know, it's just the kind of win that doesn't make me feel very good about things moving forward. Maybe it's the one that helps them figure it out like they did last year.
  18. mul21
    the announcers didn't say a word about it, either. and the calls, or lack thereof, continue to go against us. I was amused by Brennaman saying "Otah, trying to hold him off..."
  19. mul21
    Why do they keep insisting it was Peppers on the FG block when Tillman clearly got a hand on it first?
  20. mul21
    Steve Smith is fast. Tillman is not. He'd get torched just as bad. He's good at covering big guys.

    Why shouldnt it play a factor? Its not as if Epstein is more qualified than Beane, and he's way less realistic in the first place. Because nobody gives a [expletive] about a story line, they want a [expletive] world series you dolt. So Epstein is more likely to deliver one because....??? Let me give the magic guess...because he's already done it and uh..."knows how to win" or something in the vicinity. FYI: Story is the only reason Epstein would take the job....broke the biggest curses in the sport is something of a story, even if I think it sucks. What other incentive does he have? Totally off topic at this point, but just had a chance to get back to it. I'm pretty sure I didn't say I wanted one guy over another. My only point is that the fans of this team shouldn't give a damn about a story line in any way, shape or form. I want the guy who will make the Cubs a perennial contender and give them a regular chance at winning a World Series. I don't know who that guy is, but if they can get Epstein or Beane (or one of a few others mentioned ad nauseum), I think that's a step in the right direction.
  22. mul21
    We are? My opinion. Beane is already being ruled out He is? He would? Based on? His opinion, as he clearly stated in the first 2 words of his post.
  23. mul21
    This is an ideal scenario in my eyes. castro's value is at SS. so, not until he's old should we move him to third. If he hits for power at the rate he did in the 2nd half of the year, I'm not sure this is true considering the considerable depth the Cubs have in the minors up the middle.
  24. mul21
    Is Perron still broken? That could be a big factor in whether or not they get to the post season.
