  1. That's a bit of a disingenuous comparison, wouldn't you say? Most minor leagues adopted the DH because they're developmental leagues where it's very beneficial to have the additional hitters in the lineup every day rather than a couple pitcher at bats. How is it disingenuous? I want the DH; pretty much everyone except the NL uses it. I really don't care about the details or they reasons why certain leagues have it...I just want consistency and I'm sick of my team playing at a needless disadvantage.
  2. I understand what Rob is saying and used to completely agree with that line of thinking, but you do have to admit it's pretty ludicrous that the NL exists as this bizarre bastion of "strategy" when pretty much every single other level of professional and amateur baseball has evolved past it (or at least wised up and have the option to use it). I guess they can join arms with the Japanese Central League and proudly march off of a cliff together or something. Plus I think it has a ripple effect and makes it more acceptable/tolerable to have too many shitty players out there because they're "just batting down by the pitcher's spot." Too often the 7-8 spots are just black holes of suck because of the damned #9 spot.
  3. It's a readily available solution to help easily make the Cubs a LOT better. Give it to me.
  4. Because I'm envious of the teams that can even have the "problem" of juggling big hitters between DH and 1B. Lord, the NL is a dumbass dinosaur. Please heal it soon.
  5. WHAT HE DID THAT NO WAY
  6. Nicely done Rob. Even if you forgot to mention my article on Fielder's projected value ;) Hence all of the praise.
  7. Slow down.
  8. Does this not concern anyone else? Funny.
  9. Is this dave's first one of these in 2012?

  11. Brady has been fantastic. It's just annoying the sheer number of football fans I know or hear who think that it just comes down to rings with these sorts of things. That said, at least Brady IS an excellent QB; Eli being the Manning with the most rings and providing fuel for such nonsense would be obscene.
  12. Let's ask the dead guy.
  13. Regardless of who wins, it's going to be a victorious QB unjustly rated above Peyton Manning by the meatballs.
  14. Uhh... I guess his paper doesn't hold staff to a higher standard. That's a major league meltdown. Maybe he'd off himself in Candlestick.
  15. I assume he means that they let the pressure of the playoffs bother them and thus played significantly worse than they otherwise would have. Yep. Seems like a pretty redundant conclusion to take, but whatever.
  16. How could someone so handsome and successful be filled with such rage.
  17. It was as if millions of Bums suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.
  18. I reeeeeeeeeeeally hope that it says "[expletive] can" under there.
  19. FREED DAM BUM...if the Niners lose.
  20. That's all well and good if it was an isolated incident.
