    What a way to go out.

    Poor kids might not get a lot of money. That sounds absolutely disgusting.

    The civil trial was in 96-97

    Their basketball team was slightly above average one year... If they are joining the Big 10, I hope their football team is on its way back up to stay after being down so long. An Iowa/Nebraska rivalry doesn't do a whole lot for me in just name alone. I'd enjoy the hell out of it just the same if Kent State suddenly became a football powerhouse and joined the conference.

    I told you all Conan sucks.

    Who in the world are they going to be able to get right now that will help turn this team around, not help cripple them financially, and not empty the farm system?
  9. Ding Dong Johnson
    yep
  10. Ding Dong Johnson
    I'm sure he had a trial or 2 in that range as well.

    It's nearly impossible for a manager to make his players play better than they're capable of. Some will have great seasons while others slump. The manager's job is to maximize the team's potential based on the performance of his players. This team sucks because the roster as a whole isn't all that great, and he is doing a terrible job at managing the roster.

    Mitch Williams is a raving lunatic, and I'm still baffled as to how he got a job at MLB Network.

    A win in Philadelphia is long overdue.

    Lou's job is to manage the roster he has. It's Hendry's responsibility to put the roster together. Lou did plenty of dumb stuff in 08, but there was a lot more talent on that team. They're both failing.

    The big knock against Sandberg is his seemingly old-school approach to the game. He appears on the surface to favor conventional wisdom over statistical analysis. The thing with managers is that they very rarely ever do things to add wins over the course of a season. However, they do add losses by poor in-game management. Their job is to put their players in the best position to succeed. A logical construction of a lineup and proper management over the course of an entire season will have the team reaching its potential. Batting Theriot 1 or 2 while he's never getting on base, leaving Soto and his 400-500 OBP either in the 8 spot or on the bench, bringing in Grabow to blow 1 run leads because he can't get people out, etc. is not the best way to achieve good results. I have no clue how Sandberg will manage the pen, but I can only guess he'd leave Theriot at the top of the lineup because he's small and looks quick.

    were you actually trying to pick the worst team possible? Picking and holding on to guys like Aramis and Sizemore really hurt. I took some reaches knowing they could flop, but I'd be looking like a genius if they had panned out. My goal now is to finish within 40 of the next-worse guy.

    need a sub?
  18. Ding Dong Johnson
    I'm only like 90 off the lead. Awesome.
  19. Ding Dong Johnson
    the same pirates team that is like .900 against us. we're probably like a AA team
  20. Ding Dong Johnson
    stop typing forever terrible advice

    I hope he gets hit in the spine with a broken bat and can never walk again

    Try changing to the subsilver2 theme, if you aren't in it already. It worked. I was using the nexus theme. I liked it better, but I also like to quote. thanks. You can also just click in the area where the button is normally. The link is still there, you just can't see the button.
