  1. ummmm you forgot descalso
  2. what draft expert said lamar jackson should change to wr Bill Pollian (his stature as a draft expert is up for debate) https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/ex-nfl-gm-lamar-jackson-too-short-and-slight-should-switch-to-wr-for-2018-nfl-draft/ yeah but that whole story is making fun of notoriously out of the loop polian for the "short" and "slight" takes. what he said about jackson's lack of accuracy is true, but teams are willing to hope on physical tools at QB
  3. We'll see. I just think it's funny how fast the draft experts change their opinions. They do it in the same draft (remember how 6'3", 225lb Mitch Trubisky was a prototypical QB build while 6'3", 225lb LaMar Jackson was too sleight and should change to WR?) what draft expert said lamar jackson should change to wr
  4. Some people thought mayfield was too short (albeit he still went no. 1,) but he had a really good season. So now they think well, maybe height isn’t such a huge deal anymore
  5. He is ridiculously talented. Very intelligent QB, super fast, great arm strength. The problem is that he is too small for the NFL. I highly doubt he gets measured at the combine but I don’t think he’s even 5’10” and possibly under 190 pounds. He is going to get killed on an NFL field. Its just funny that the people who said Baker Mayfield at 6'0" was too short are all over Murray's jock Wait for it, it will dawn on him
  6. So ive never done heroin but #1 im pretty sure all heroin is injectable #2 "forehead heroin" doesnt exist any more than arm heroin does #3 I dunno, maybe ask a friend who is a drug dealer if you are expecting a friendly discount on drugs Look at this nerd who hasn’t spent two decades on nsbb like us cool dudes
  7. 50% more per year, and 300% more over the course of a decade is a huge difference. No one is trading for Heyward and his entire contract. but acting like there's a negligible difference between what he's owed, and what Harper will be owed is illogical. No it’s not. Not when the difference is the production between Heyward and Harper.
  8. theres that 4th dimensional chess i keep hearing about
  9. Also, at the very least, in a hypothetical Heyward trade Cubs pick up the 20mill deferred signing bonus, then he's down to 5/106 left on his contract. Harper will do much better than that or MLB should be shut down. that's a difference of like $8-10m AAV, if you are willing to give butt-ass jason heyward 20 mil a year you should be shot if you aren't willing to give harper 30 mil
  10. he was joking I think schwarber is a big thick rust belt boy who loves cops, doesn't take a lot of deduction to figure out who he didn't vote for because he's a millenial but would have voted for if he had registered to vote (its donnie trump)
  11. schwarber is definitely too self-aware to be seen with a maga hat on in public
  12. from a fan perspective i dont think anyone is too concerned with who benefits from the DH the most on a team-level as there are very few truly impactful DHs like, ever. It just makes the games more watchable because i hate watching pitchers horsefeathering hit
  13. that's what has cracked me up about the "lets just send heyward to the giants with alzolay!" or whatever talk. Why wouldn't they just sign bryce harper for *checks notes* the exact same amount of money
  14. being able to get happ and zobrist ABs (without having him in the field) seems like it would be good
  15. andreoli's projected OPS on BBREF is 0.017 lower than Jason Heyward's
  16. i keep pretending that im not excited about it but really i am there are enough things that could plausibly go right (bryant healthy, maybe javy takes another leap? schwarber could luck into a .280 avg and turn into a monster, darvish might be healthy and awesome, happ could bounceback and hit 30 bombs, contreras could be a stud again, addison russell could get hit by a car) that it makes the season worth following but also it could all go very wrong and in that case at least it will be fun to talk horsefeathers about the ricketts and turn on theo
  17. how can you be this wrong all the time
  18. holy horsefeathers you're right
  19. [tweet]https://twitter.com/sung_minkim/status/1091711084816257024[/tweet]
  20. horsefeathers it i just put him on text alert so i can learn when he signs with the seattle mariners or whatever is gonna happen
  21. If the cardinals sign Bryce Harper I’m telling you right now I will only watch 2/3 of the cubs games this year AT MINIMUM
  22. jesus christ
  23. i still dont understand why the braves aren't in on harper or machado (or hell both) their payroll is like $110m, freeman is locked up, literally everyone else is cheap. why not pair the acuna/albies (not convinced he's good but still) with two mid 20s super talents? They could sign both guys and still have a manageable payroll. They have a new stadium on the way, it makes too much sense. what am i missing
  24. Judging by online reactions it appears fans are quite content with the spending money is stupid idea. These same goofs would definitely rage at Theo for not sealing the deal if we were actively pursuing case in point
  25. he's selling essential oils
