  1. im sure this has been covered but someone please let me in the god damn social forum THANKS
  2. professional athletes truly are just like us
  3. barnhart and gomes out-WAR contreras. Hosmer hits well enough (and mervis struggles in AAA) enough to never give up a grasp on 1B
  4. no time to worry about dansby, im still freaking out about jorge soler
  5. extreme irony on this page lol. tim you should have deleted this thread first
  6. I cleaned the kitchen and mopped the floors. Very productive! And now every Grenedan defender has a great Christian Pulisic story to tell when they’re watching the PL with their friends. "See that guy on the bench? Yeah, played against him."
  7. I am just positive you are smart enough to realize that just about everyone here wouldn't want the Bears to take Stroud at #9 if he were somehow available there, regardless of their draft philosophy. Correct. Which is why I've always found the "BPA" takes irritating. People didn't really mean it, they would just say it if it happened to fit the argument for whatever player they wanted to draft or draft pick they wanted to defend in the moment. But at least now I know that *they* know they don't mean it, that you're supposed to adjust for "nuance" to whatever seems obvious regardless of what was said. I'm working on adjusting to that. the best way to remember it is that BPA exists on ... a spectrum
  8. you know NSBB is back on top when kyle is doom bonering. Time for him to go find another team to root for again. We'll 100 percent know it's for real when he tries to root for the rockies or whoever again
  9. make a pitch for him to come to the cubs that isn't just "here's money." Convince the only 1 of 1 baseball player to ever exist to play on a team that's having serious debates this year about "mckinstry or madrigal????"
  10. im not even giving it a second thought. he's just wasted 5 years on the angels. he's not coming here.
  11. well, that rocked
  12. i call patrick wisdom, hubba hubba
  13. i am not a fan of giving a pen to a guy who is running away from goal and jumping wildly at the edge of the 18, facing his own goal' however, i am a fan of spurs getting screwed over
  14. jesus christ man
  15. yikes. kind of puts Gio's ... everything ... in a different light. He's 19 years old and his parents are insane. Hard not to get a little screwy
  16. I won the freaking UCL, I don't think I'll ever top this lol Beat Madrid 3-0 away in the first leg of the quarters, immediately went down 2-0 at home in the second leg, but ended up winning 5-3 on agg. Played Newcastle in the semis, won 2-0 at home and 1-2 away to win 3-2 on agg In the finals I beat Aston Villa (??????) 3-0 despite getting out xG'd like 3-1. Love to get the chance to FM the computer in a cup final for a change.
  17. How are you handling rotation with all the midweek fixtures? I've always felt like I don't quite get that right, but I might just be paranoid about fitness level and guys are actually fine starting more games(albeit at the cost of the happiness of depth players) its difficult since this is really my first year playing continental football, so my guys arent used to it. I didnt really come into it with a plan, i assumed id get bounced out of the UCL ASAP, but i kept winning, so i've had to rotate in league games, which probably explains why im 6th in the league this year instead of 4th. the upshot is i should still be in europe next year and i've made almost $40m off the champions league wins so far, so it's been worth it.
  18. FM23 update vol. 10, things have escalated yet again
  19. ill need an aol cd to update my email because im currently out of minutes. let me go buy a pc gamer magazine from the store
  20. would be a more viable business plan to just turn this into northsidelibs dot com and just let chicago people rant about donald trump and elon musk
  21. Hey, quit stealing imb's thunder. Is this referencing what I hope it's referencing do you think they're regretting this purchase yet
  22. would it worry you if i told you i knew the name of your editor in northd dakota? The sports editor, the main editor, or are you thinking of Katie Pizza? I don't even remember the actual editors' names. I just remember they both hated me. Most of my bosses forever have hated me because of what I now know is the autistic hyperfixation/burnout cycle. It's a little like manic-depressive. I get hyperfixated on my career, I do amazing work, give great interviews, talk myself into new and better jobs. A few months later I'm burnt out, the hyperfixation disappears, and I can literally barely drag myself in every day to click around on the computer screen and retype some press releases to avoid getting fired immediately. I always thought there was a vibe between me and Katie Pizza, but I was married at the time and would never press the issue. A few years later my then-wife cheated with a work buddy and I feel like I should get a re-do on that one. katie pizza baby! best name in the business
