It's an uncapped year. The money has always been there.

Yes, there's been somewhat of a downgrade, but who gives a [expletive]? Salmons had to go and the best way to do that was to get expirings in return. Salmons is a slightly above average player at best...what the hell did you think they would get in return if they're looking to free up cash? It's not like they went from being a good team to being a bad one. Salmons and Tyrus were not the differences in this team looking good or looking bad.

Please stop with this ridiculous theory. The FA's can dry their tears over playing for such a bad team with the massive amounts of money the Bulls push their way...oh wait, those are tears of joy over the massive amounts of money.

Kudos to you for recognizing that, just maybe, the depth and breadth of this dude's delusions made trading him at any cost the smart move -- and that only someone up close and personal to the situation (like, say, Jim Hendry) would know for sure. The armchair QBs around here were having none of that hypothesis a few months ago, when this story was still on the front burner. Because they're smart.
-
I they both feed into the mix. Part of it is injuries, part of it is the trades (which is really killing us in the post defensively and rebounding wise) and part of it is not having the depth to withstand everything that happened. True in regards to depth, though I don't think the trades are nearly as damaging as you're presenting. Salmons was generally better on defense (though hardly anything to really talk about) but Thomas was touch and go as to what you'd get at best. Overall they're pretty much a wash. If they were actually fully healthy there'd be little difference in the team pre and post-trades, as we've already seen.

Why should they? They shouldn't. My post was saying don't get mad at this season, the Bulls brass doesn't care so why should we. This season isn't important. Well, yeah. Some of us have been saying that the entire time.
-
Wait, wait, wait...you think they're significantly worse because of the trades? And not because of the injuries to key players? Guh? How does that work? How do you know the former is true with the latter occuring?
-
Why should they?
-
It's definitely possible, but given Bradley's history it's not very likely.
-
There's not single person here who is incapable of criticizing Bradley.
-
Who is acting like he's innocent? WHO ARRRRRE THEEEEESE PEOPLE?!?
-
Any camera trained on Castro were burnt out by his supernova-like glory.
-
Who is doing that? That would be a stupid, Hendry/Lou-ish expectation.
-
Yeah, it'll be a pretty epic feat if he ends up as more than a 4th OFer. -
Sounds like Colvin put on 25 pounds of kickass.
-
Bradley had a monster spring for the Cubs. http://userserve-ak.last.fm/serve/500/3870166/Paul+McCartney+wink.png

It's spring training. *HACKWHEEZESPIT*

That would be a depressing, terrifying world. Why? Well Im kinda hopin Fonsie tears it up this year....if he hits like he did in 2007 were in the playoffs Why wouldn't they be if he hits like he did in 2008?
-
That would be a depressing, terrifying world. Why? Because it's tremendously unrealistic and dumping Soriano for "anything" is likely a scenario that the Cubs get shafted in.

It was majestic how you could see his rippling body tighten beneath his uniform as strike 3 was called. what about all the loose skin He willed it to adhere to him.

Santo is saying Colvin put on 20-25 pounds.
