  1. my guess is someone will offer him a contract 3 mill+...I think that the Hawks would have a tough decision matching that. They would receive 1,2 and 3rd round picks though. Really? That much? 1, 2 and a 3? Are all of those from the signing team or are some compensatory from the league? I would have no problem if another team signed him to such a deal and they got that sort of compensation.
  2. I disagree. He's a receiver, not a QB. He could easily go back to playing football at a high level. what in the world makes you think this? his body has to be nowhere near football shape, and as a white guy, he's at a disadvantage as a no-qb skill position guy, anyway. Because WR is a simple position. He can't play in a game tomorrow. But give him some offseason conditioning to work on his football moves and it would be simple. Guys go from minor league baseball players to college football all the time. Guys miss seasons with devestating injuries and still come back. Players go on freaking mormon missions and go back to football, or from selling insurance or delivering for UPS. Samardzija hasn't exactly turned to a fat slob. I think he could easily transition. He's in his early 20's.
  3. wow, dude, you're a real piece of work [expletive] you But you're the centerpiece of the cosmic conspiracy to punish Chicago sports fans. I think it's pretty selfish of you to continue punishing us when the obvious solution is in place. Maybe not selfish, but at the very least it shows a lack of bravery, and maybe even indicates some cowardice.
  4. because most organizations don't waste $10m on wide receivers? samardzija got one of the biggest contracts awarded to players in the amateur draft. sometimes the cubs are unlucky but usually managment just does [expletive] things that predictably blows up in their face. Technically they only spent like $750,000 on him out of the draft. He was already a pro when they gave him the big deal.
  5. He won't do that until it's mid-June and 15,000 show up to Wrigley to watch them fall 20 games back.
  6. Not that it matters, but Zambrano had bad luck that kept the inning alive and then paid for it. Samadzija screwed this up from the start.
  7. I believe the correct phrase is he insisted on drafting
  8. Adjusted SL Soriano, Theriot, Fontenot and Samardzija
  9. When someone knocks on your door and offers you a huge pile of money everyone else knows you don't deserve, you aren't a thief. you can still do time
  10. He reached down for it, and from some angles that could easily look like he was reaching into his mitt. That's what I thought when I saw it live
  11. I really hate the tough guy stance these umps take when arguing a BS call they have no idea about.
  12. it takes two to tango and we'd be the only ones on that dance floor You don't like dancing with yourself?
  13. I had no idea that was Tracy at the plate and thought it was some pitcher I didn't recognize pinch hitting.
  14. Wear and tear lessens an arm's ability to do amazing things with a baseball.
  15. I'm just glad I wasn't anticipating this season much until this morning. Ooooohhhh, hard knock to his counterpart at short there by Theriot.
  16. Pretty much... this is why half the board stops doing game threads after a week or two. It's not just the board. The media will do the same damn thing. They will praise a pitcher who gives up 3 line drive outs and criticize a guy who gives up 5 bloop singles.
  17. You know, I really hate when idiots bitch and moan at the pitcher in innings like this, they just show how completely ignorant they are about the game of baseball.
