    Now that the first tasteless joke has been made, can someone please update the Cardinals in Hell pic?

    An educated guess:

    It's Sullivan, so I'm not sure if he is trying to be clever or if he actually just doesn't realize that it's "moot". Sullivan's issue is that he's ALWAYS trying to be clever, but rarely is. It's the former.

    Ken Rosenthal 4 mins · Facebook Mentions · Just talked to Joe Maddon. He told me that after Andrew Friedman resigned, he had a two-week window to decide whether to exercise opt-out. He was unaware of specifics until Rays' Matt Silverman informed him. I asked him specifically about Cubs. He said, "I don't know. I have to talk to people. I have interest everywhere right now. I've got to hear what everyone has to say." Asked him if he would sit out a year. He said, "I'd love to manage. If the right opportunity does not present itself, I would want to work. But I would hope it would be a managing position. If not, there are other things I can do that would make me an even better manager when I get the opportunity again." Asked if it was uncomfortable for him to have his agent, Alan Nero, contacting teams with managers already under contract. He said, "For me, it's not my responsibility to think for other organizations. I'm controlling what I can. I had this two-week window of opportunity. It's about myself, my family, my charities. At the end of the day, I would never ask or tell an organization what to do. That's not my business."

    BREAKING: GM of team with manager under contract says manager under contract is team's manager.

    Has a non-interim manager ever taken a demotion in the same organization before? I can't imagine that. And it's not like there's some FO job for him to take. [expletive], David -- can we get a Sullivan Warning first?

    The lower right one was modeled after Javy.

    If there's one thing Jerry Angelo knows, it's young OL talent. "Gabe Carimi, Chris Williams and J'Marcus Webb, now those are a special talents!" My favorite Webb highlight: https://twitter.com/jmarcuswebb/status/129525035693129728 I mean, WTF?

    What the heck is fun about it? When I think homers I think Yankees and White Sox broadcasts and they are awful. There's nothing fun about an announcer that is detached from reality and incapable of providing rational and accurate descriptions of play. those things are a result of being dumb i want my local broadcasters celebrating good [expletive] and being as excited as me. that's fun. i also don't want them sounding excited when the other team does good stuff. that's annoying. My issue with the Bulls guys is that they seemingly disagree with every call against the Bulls and don't acknowledge when the other team has made a nice play. They shouldn't sound excited (I hate that) but they also need to call the damned game. To me, a "homer" announcer is one who can't give the other team credit and is insistent that the refs are out to get the home team. Get excited when the team wins? Get disappointed when the other team makes a great play? Please do.

    He's the absolute worst. Never have I despised one of my team's announcers more than I do with King. He's a hype man. He's harmless fun for me. Yeah wtf. I always thought King was one of those guys who you love if he's calling for your team, and hate if he's another team's announcer. I don't understand why people hate excitement and homerism from your basketball announcer. And the homerism isn't event Hawk like biased homerism, its just him getting overly excited about the Bulls doing well. No one in sports is at Hawk's level, but I find Funk-King to be pretty big homers.

    Clearly that's a very important stat. I mean, look how well the Panthers and Falcons are doing. Yeah, I mean, he def throws picks. So? He also makes incredible passes.
  15. ConstableRabbit
    That was just too perfect.

    The shovel/clamp part of that machine looks like a cartoon bull.

    Dallas MNF was awesome. Losing to SF at Candlestick without Cutty was a nightmare and I feared for my safety.

    Jesus, Miami. Wake the [expletive] up.
  24. ConstableRabbit
    Can't wait for the first misstep next year to be called "So Cob" in a game thread.
  25. ConstableRabbit
    Thanks. And damn, that's just a really inappropriate thing to say.
