    This is what I was trying to point out earlier when Rose came out; what does the latter have to do with the former? If we're going to argue "everyone was doing it" and "it was kinda banned but not enforced" and all that stuff (which I agree with), what does that have to do with Rose? Rose was consciously breaking rules at the time that had basically been baseball's original sin for decades. It's not like it's something he can plead ignorance on, or point to a pervasive culture at the time that he got swept up in. That said, I have no problem with Rose in the HoF; the thing that should stand (and seemingly bugs him even more than being left out of the Hall) is his lifetime ban from MLB (no coaching, managing, announcing, etc.). The Hall is a separate entity and should put him in if people vote him in.

    Any Cubs fan that tries to explain why they didn't find that [expletive] awesome deserves a pummeling.

    Sammy [expletive] rules. The hacks are just trying to placate their meatball readers who love to pretend like they always hated the guy. Actually, most of them did hate him because of, y'know, unforgivable brownness.

    What Cutler for MVP debate?

    Holy [expletive], how many different boards/blogs is Kyle tainting?

    http://espn.go.com/chicago/mlb/story/_/id/8684414/barry-bonds-roger-clemens-sammy-sosa-set-appear-hall-ballot Anyone wanna guess what percentage he'll get? ONE MILLION PERCENT. In my heart.

    Jeff Morris went on a multi-state kill-rampage in January of 1996.

    Of course the MVP talk is ridiculous; it's just funny and Cutler is awesome and sexy.
  11. Sammy Sofa
    Holy crap.

    Trout not winning the MVP had everything to do with Cabrera winning the Triple Crown and nothing to do with Trout being in Anaheim. Claiming that California players are relatively ignored is ridiculous, unless you're trying to claim that guys like Matt Kemp and Tim Lincecum are local cult heroes instead of superstars.

    Your face is absurd. What? Your mouth is so absurd diarrhea comes out of it all the time and your fingers are a bitch to your mouth. I think you had a rage-stroke. Yup..once again you add nothing to the discussion but garbage. Yeah, well, your toes are a jerk to your ears.

    Only $50 million a year for the Cubs? I want to break something.

    Which is moot, since the CoC was a ridiculous idea to work in place of having a manager, which isn't what's happening here at all.

    Guys, he would have been totally cool with it if they were "lackadaisically appraising" or something, because that totally validates his point which makes all kinds of sense.

    You don't deserve Zap Rosdower. Or happiness.
  19. Sammy Sofa
    Whew, thanks for clearing up what you meant.

    They just paid more than six billion dollars for the television rights to a team that just sold for two billion dollars. They could have paid the two billion, and gotten the television rights along with the rest of the revenue from the Dodgers. Instead, they decided to pay a lot more to get less. That makes no sense to me. They'd be getting the TV rights revenue price set by themselves...from themselves? How is that working? And again, it's $7 billion over 25 years. That's very different than having to drop $2 billion and then all of the additional ongoing costs. Their projected profit margin is likely very, very different than if they had done what you're suggesting because now they're just paying for the television side of things spread out over a quarter of a century.

    Your face is absurd.
  22. Sammy Sofa
    Really? You asked "why doesn't Fox Sports just buy the Dodgers" in response to the story about them paying between $6 and $7 million over 25 years for the TV rights, seemingly implying that buying and running the team was in some way financially comparable. Why would buying the team make more sense?
  23. Sammy Sofa
    So apparently you think that owning and running the Dodgers over 25 years would be equal to or less than $7 billion dollars? How on Earth are you coming to that conclusion?

    Do the Marlins have any contracts left to absorb. Why not throw in Soriano, fully paid? YOU'RE NEXT, SQUIRTBOY.
  25. Sammy Sofa
    Do the Marlins have any contracts left to absorb. I really doubt it. Isn't their payroll down to like 27M or something like that? Still too much for the Great Satan.
