the bulls are really a mess. they finally miss the play-in and their reward is (likely) landing in the worst spot in the draft. too low to get a blue chip, but too high (and you're too bad) to take some older college junior role-player. if you end up at 9 or 10 just trade the pick, let billy go (he will not do a rebuild) and crash out next season. I like Buzelis and Giddey but they aren't even championship building blocks, so if a tank year costs you them too, well ... ok fine

it's actually spelled caroline anyway

i like the way the ball sounds of ballesteros bat

cade horton was holding the offense back it seems

3 weeks ago i would have told you i had no faith in matthew boyd and cade horton to be good and/or make it to the ASB and I still would have said this is an 88-win playoff team. there is plenty of middling pitching languishing around, the cubs' 2026 has rested and still rests on the defense (elite) and the bats (TO BE DETERMINED) im not trying to be an optimist, because i hate this team franchise and front office, but i think we're fine.

there's probably the same likelihood that steele is done as a relevant pitcher than there is that he comes back and posts a sub-4 era this year

good, maybe jed will stop trying to stock our rotation with soft-tossers now that he knows they just get hurt like the flamethrowers anyway get. real. horsefeathers. pitchers. please.

we have very different definitions of the word perfect

quickest way around the bad word filter

sure but you still have your dignity

there was a split at nsbb in the early aughts between the Steve Stone fundamentalists and the Kent Mercker extremists. The Mercker extremists combined with Adam Dunn and Len Kasper truthers to create da louneg, where we mostly came up with insane plots aimed at making certain posters mad. Once Facebook took off, we began spying on NSBB members and I gotta say, 20+ years later as a 44-year-old adult, I am at times embarassed by how much I know about you people.

We used to call this da lounge and it was too beautiful for this world
