  1. Neither was Murton, really.
  2. Durrr. Me read good. Marmol, you [expletive].
  3. I'm inclined to always think the worst of athletes in these situations, but the accuser has a lawyer stating this and didn't file any criminal charges?
  4. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/breaking/chi-carlos-marmol-chicago-cubs-abuse-20130131,0,6356945.story
  5. Is your default position that most five star college players are paid off to go wherever they go? Honest question. Just trying to get a bearing on your opinion of college football recruiting. I just assume the worst when it comes to this kind of thing; I'm really not a fan of college sports at all and I've not been shy about that, and that's largely due to the widespread corruption and hypocrisy of it all.
  6. So they paid him off six months ago.
  7. Some of the print looks...weird. Look some areas are way too sharp/bold given the quality of the photo.
  8. And we were able to get him for $305! What a steal! How in the world do you not see the other bills behind that. Could be all $1's, but its more than $305. OK, $315. I'm sure if they were hundreds he would have laid them all out to help him achieve whatever effect he was going for in taking that pic. By all accounts Treadwell is a smart kid with a 3.5 GPA. If he was illegally paid mad stacks of cash I doubt he'd be flaunting it on instagram. More likely is that he was trying to look cool with some cash he had and shortly after either he realized that it could look bad or somebody got to him and told him that it could look bad (because yeah, it does look bad) Treadwell's recruitment is hardly suspicious. His best friend from his hometown is a freshman DB on the team. Treadwell helped his buddy move in last fall and started liking the town and the program and came down for several games and made friends with the players and the coaching stuff, etc. He also became tight with Robert Nkemdiche because of all the camps and all-star games they were at together. Treadwell has been around the program a ton and is close friends with a lot of the guys. It's not some huge surprise that he chose Ole Miss over Oklahoma and Oklahoma St. Come on, it's college sports; do people really assume their favorite program isn't dirty?
  9. Erm... The Fridge wouldn't be worth a nickname if he showed up today.Yes, they're bigger than they were in the 70s and 80s. Yeah, because there's a lot more great big fat guys in the NFL. That's different.
  10. As much as I want it to be true, it looks like pretty shitty Photoshop.
  11. Pretty soon we'll have the best prospects, the best front office, the best field. That's every important facet of the organization, right? LULZ at the crappy nerd jealousy/rage. You stay in the dirt.
  12. Nicely done.
  13. Wait, what? When did I miss the "canning" of the triangle building idea?
  14. Noah is a lovable rascal, you monster.
  15. Nah, I had and have plenty of fun despite not enjoying Harry Caray like you. How kooky weird!
  16. Love it.
  17. I really don't give a [expletive] what he was like as a person; he just sucked at his job for most of the time I was watching him do it.
  18. http://deadspin.com/5979090/someone-actually-gave-adrian-peterson-an-orange-peanut
  19. Jim Tracy's T-Rex arms are also pretty great. And well played, Girardi:
  20. Joe Maddon: great man or greatest man?
  21. one of the all-time worst chip caray calls. "in back-to-back HISTORIC fashion" it was a [expletive] regular season game in april Hahahahahahaah! I thought the exact same thing. It's annoying how many of these clips you gotta watch muted.
