    Oh, ye of little Ricketts.

    Mods, please do your thing and stick this at the top of the forum in place of last year's. Thanks.

    SIGN UP NOW, YOU PRINCES OF SCHAUMBURG, YOU KINGS OF SKOKIE. You know the drill... The person currently up will be highlighted in blue, and I will update each person's record as the season rolls along. I'll also reach out to the next person up via PM whenever I am able to do so. I'll try to give the next person up until about 3-4 hours before the game is scheduled to start to put up a thread, and if there's no response I will bump them to the end of the line and PM the next person.

    There is no way whatever his voice sounds like lives up to my expectations Good point. I'm picturing Seinfeld on the phone in this clip:

    my im officially too old moment is that i literally cannot imagine caring 1 percent as much about a sporting event as he appears to care about this superbowl Every day he is not welcomed back here is a crime.
  6. Sammy Sofa
    HE HAS A PODCAST.
  7. Sammy Sofa
    i recommend looking at his twitter account. Link that horsefeathers, dammit.
  8. Sammy Sofa
    OK? You kicked this off [expletive] on Verdugo as if people were pining for him.
  9. Sammy Sofa
    There's no maybe about it; his point from the start was obviously, "this is all the Cubs could likely get for Bryant." It was very clearly not any kind of an endorsement.
  10. Sammy Sofa
    All I'm saying is that valuing your best player for scraps to teach players a lesson or whatever may seem all the rage and therefore realistic, but a realistic return requires the Cubs accepting the offer. Teams would fall over themselves to give up the Zac Gallens, Dustin Mays, Alex Verdugos, Spencer Howards, Alec Bohms etc for Kris Bryant if, realistically, those players could pull it off but they can't. Bryant hasn't been that 6+ fWAR player in two seasons, an injury year and a followup borderline 5 fWAR season, but has had more 6+ WAR seasons than <6 WAR seasons still. Alex Verdugo didn't halve that 2019 during a supposedly pre-peak season, at an age that will count as a peak for Bryant, but might approach that one day as he gets older...Beyond age and contract situation all these guys deemed realistic, as well as most of the supposedly unrealistic ones, get really shaky You seem to think that Cubswin11 was arguing in favor of trading Bryant for someone like Verdugo, or in favor of trading him at all. Why?

    Carter, Bamba & Mikal Bridges have outstanding defensive PIPM so it's conceivable defense wasn't really favored much on this

    Please change the thread title to "The Big Game" or something before Tim gets the pleated slacks sued right off of him.

    Also: a Burneko butt list without the presumably still very butt Andrew Wiggins feels weird.
  14. Sammy Sofa
    The entire Bulls roster is on that list I think lol To be fair, they should have rebranded as the Chicago Butts a long time ago.
  15. Sammy Sofa
    Counterpoint: Bryant clearly hates the Cubs, and it's actually now the most likable thing about him.

    Now this is the kind of creeping anti-Bryant content I am here for. It is neither creeping nor anti-Bryant to say that his MVP contender days are likely over and that he's "merely" a top 20ish hitter in MLB with middling 3B defense. Tomayto, tomahto.
  18. Sammy Sofa
    nah that ship has sailed the past couple years imo aside from the injuries and the concern they cause (vs. arenado who has played at least 155 games every year since 2015), arenado fields 3B at an elite level and is just about as good a hitter. kb's defensive numbers have taken a big step back the past couple years from where the were in 2016. Now this is the kind of creeping anti-Bryant content I am here for.

    I really wish the statuses could be updated our names, because I want mine to say "trashcan bangs" sooooooooooo bad.

    And to think people were complaining about the players not being punished.
  24. Sammy Sofa
    We are. You're mistaking the shortsighted deals that are are a part of the clash between players and owners right now as being the result of a lack of power on the part of the union, which is just flat out wrong.
  25. Sammy Sofa
    This is, quite honestly, a strangely impressive and wildly incorrect take of the state of the union.
