I left to take a rage-dump that turned into a joy-dump. -
That was amazingly stupid.

Ridiculously stupid decision.

Holy Hell, how did you pull that off? I'm impressed/jealous. I'm not really sure to be honest with you. Stubhub has been my main outlet, but not getting face value for the vast majority of those games. I typically end up pricing them near, or at the lowest price for my section. I have only had three games that I haven't sold. Having said that, some games may sell for 40-50% of combined face value. I try to just tell myself it is better than nothing. I was in town for one of the games against the Angels and tried selling a few games to the scampers outside by the El. They didn't really want go give me anything, and these were for Cardinals games. One guy offered me $30 total for the Thursday and Sunday game against the Cardinals. They both ended up selling on Stubhub for close to face value. I have sold a handful of games to some trusting people on Craigslist for face value earlier in the year. Man, good on you for being able to do that. I've had mine on StubHub as well and the face value usually hovers around $45-$60 each and it's a rare day when I can get $20 each.

Yeah, but why in God's name would they offer something that insane?

His fastball definitely looked faster to me and/or had more movement earlier in the season.
-
But I knew he was a pitcher.

Then he'll have a sub-.300 obp and only mojo will care. He's a pitcher.

You're annoyed that the FO didn't somehow force a deal to put the Yankees over the luxury tax?
-
We got $6M of salary relief and a prospect that is somewhat interesting and Soriano's current production wouldn't be that difficult to replace in LF. Yeah, the deal is sounding much better than it initially did.
-
That was like one step above a WSR post.

Way to hog 25% of the baseball posts, you jerk.

Ryan Braun suspended for rest of 2013
Sammy Sofa replied to Tangled Up in Plaid's topic in General Baseball Talk
So what? Nobody was ever arguing that Bonds wasn't using a mountain of PEDs, or that it didn't help him. The whole Bonds tangent was in response to Wilson's ridiculous idea that we don't know for sure whether or not Bonds was a HOF-worthy or "once in a generation talent" before he started using. You subtract his "steroid years" and he is still easily and obviously both of those things. -

Whoops. Good catch. -
I'm annoyed that the Ted Lilly Fan Club site is gone.
-
Yeah, man, NSBB's really slacking when it comes to getting in on all the torrent of Cubs' discussion topics right now.
-
Why in God's name would anyone be trying to convince Kyle to stick around?
-
Well, you it's tough to be patient when you're scrambling to post an argument THAT good.

Plus he (and his meatball haters) inspired the greatest thread in NSBB history.

Yeah, great attitude and seemingly works his ass off, yet the guy has the tag of being lazy (largely because of when he was slowed down by injuries/age, being afraid of a brick wall and because he's brown and fans are racist assholes). Always got a kick out of his attitude, especially, as UMFan pointed out, his interactions with fans in the LF, and his interactions with fans in general. It would have been real easy for a guy that often made the villain to be standoff-ish or a straight up dick to the press and the fans, but he made himself available a lot. I've seen him signing autographs and posing for pictures a lot whenever I've showed up early. As stupid as it was where you had fans booing him at times for literally every out he made, I was at Wrigley for several of his 2-HR games (and one 3-HR game) and those were some of my favorite memories of Cubs games because people just went nuts over him and when he went on those tears it felt like he could hit anything.

he's not wrong There are days, days of data that prove you wrong. Hahahahahahaah!
