  1. Maybe this has come up in the Minors part of the board, but horsefeathers it: http://deadspin.com/iowa-cubs-player-is-exceptionally-talented-at-being-a-w-1798628763 And he used to be rocking this look:
  2. Like, one of these anonymous dummies basically flat out said, "uh, yeah, give me the terrible guy over the guy with some success and some talent." I'll bet his face was twitching from the dead half-smile plastered on his flop-sweaty face while he said it, too.
  3. Ahhh, the whole "bad fit for X system" is a bunch of horse horsefeathers as soon as anyone spends 5 seconds look at the complete dregs and wastes of meat who make up these backups. This has, like, 5% to do with his football ability and 95% due to the PR he brings with him, yet these chumps can't even be upfront about that to the point that they do this wimpy anonymous crap with the same rehearsed RG3 excuse.
  4. Yeah, the dude's not some kind of political savant across the board, but let's face it: the people hating on him probably don't even remember the Castro bit. It's all about how he "hates the trooooooopsflageaglecountryfreedom!!!!" And I agree, there's no formal or even handshake agreement to not sign him; thee wasn't with Bonds, either. But these things happen pretty easily among a small group of rich people who tend to have similar mindsets.
  5. "No, there's no kind of agreement to not hire Kaep. Now we're all going to give the same reason that doesn't sound at all like a bunch of shady suspects suspiciously giving the exact same rehearsed alibi on a bad episode of Law & Order."
  6. Skiddish Bears are why they REALLY got rid of the white uniforms (yes, I know that doesn't really work because they still use the white pants, but WHATEVER).
  7. Well, they literally haven't worn the white on white combo since the disastrous week 1 in 2009, where cutler threw 4 or 5 picks in his debut and urlacher was lost for the season. i actually miss that. Ah-hah, that's the one.
  8. I could have sworn there was one of those rumors all over the place years ago that Urlacher hated a certain alternate jersey color or uniform combo because of a particularly disastrous game or injury that occurred while wearing it/them and that's why whatever it was went away.
  9. Man, bring back the orange uniforms. Were those the ones that Hairplugs MacGillicutty got all grumpy about?
  10. Man, check this out in the Trubisky article down the page (emphasis mine): That is a ludacris misspelling.
  11. Damn, these goobers trying to cover their butts via RG3 not having a job is spiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiicy as hell. Sure, THAT has nothing to do with how RG3 is unable to stay in one piece, nope, not at all.
  12. My overly simplistic take is that they were facing humps serving up meatballs (not the hot take-y kind), so they shifted into overly-aggressive mode to take advantage. Like, there's times to be patient, and then there's, "holy horsefeathers, these guys have NOTHING, so I'm SWINGIN'."
  13. Can't stop the Seal.
  14. Somehow I knew how that worked, but had no idea how the DH spot worked in a lineup.
  15. Vintage Jake's xFIP was MUCH lower.
  16. I really need him to go on a run of excellence because I'm sick of ME complaining about him.
  17. He hilariously becomes a .300, 40 HR guy in every season of The Show that I play Chief programmer: that sulley guy from that one Cubs message board
  18. Seems like that could be simplified very easily:
  19. Nah, he's just a religious weirdo. http://www.kansascity.com/sports/mlb/kansas-city-royals/article69873697.html In can be, and likely is (especially after finding that out), two things.
  20. I feel like Dan would be a HUGE fan of Talkin' 'Bout Turtle.
  21. Man, that goofy motherhugger somehow got even goofier-looking: http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/images/players/head_shot/596129.jpg
  22. Sounds like somebody's a little worried about getting out ahead of something.
