  1. yes he signed a 5 year deal which has 2 years left and next year his cap hit would be about 8.5m and they could save half of that if they cut him.
  2. Then they are a good way to kick off marriage. oh snap

  4. Same could be said for baseball too. It's not about the talent up there, it's that you don't have to worry about another team stealing the guy you want. no, it's about talent that's my point, though; i'm no NFL scout, but i don't see much if any difference between Ronnie Stanley (top-5) & Jack Conklin (20-25) / Nkemdiche (top-3) & DeForest Buckner (top-15) / Treadwell & Ramsey... I understand that. I haven't heard much about the difference either. Just pointing out that picking early is about getting the best talent, not targeting one guy and hoping nobody else takes him first.
  5. why would the current baseball players care one iota about that? They won't care much, but they don't really control who plays and who doesn't either. The Reds haven't had anyone of value start for them for 3 months now, and they'll likely give their better veterans some "rest days" and get their version of Lake/Szczur into the games to "see what they've got". After all the complaining you did about the Cubs losing on purpose, you don't see the Reds doing the same? An organization can decide to lose more than they win, but the players aren't going to throw an individual game. Or has Pete Rose has already been reinstated?

  7. my daughters were very excited about the costumes

  11. The only thing worse than a bridezilla is a groomzilla who wants 77% of the attention his future spouse is entitled to.
  12. is it me or does kat have a problem with middle relief?
  13. Fall is my favorite season, so I get it, but I wouldn't have gotten married in the fall in a billion years. It's my favorite season, too, but I deliberately planned mine away from all sporting events so that people would actually be paying attention! You that starved for attention? Fall weddings are awesome. Hot summer weddings are for idiots. No, I don't want to pay several hundred dollars a plate for people to be chilling at the hotel bar all night! Agreed that hot summer weddings are for idiots. Several hundred per plate? Damn, inflation is a much bigger concern than the Fed has been letting on.

  15. P.S. especially for Hammel, who could really use a W now that he's had a quality start. EDIT: !@#$ Addison!!! This is no time to do an Alex Rodriguez impersonation!! (Actually, it's never time.) I'd love Addison Russell doing an ARod impersonation the next 15 years.
  16. It's a dire need if you want to have a good shot at the 1 seed next year.
  17. I'm not a fan of seeing opponents pimp against the Cubs either, and I think it's fine to get annoyed by that. But you can't go overboard in your response and you have to get over it immediately. There's nothing wrong with them doing it.
  18. Wada and Turner were expected to be on that list. Is Wood going to get a contract?
  19. You're most likely right, but I thought the same thing when I skipped an Eric Clapton show at Alpine Valley. That ended up being the night Stevie Ray Vaughan's helicopter crashed. I also skipped Pink Floyd's last ever Dallas show because I didn't feel good. I said I will catch them next time around. Oh well, I'm over it at this point. I'm just ready for Wednesday to come so we can get the Wild Card game going.
  20. I'd like to build the depth through the minor league system so you can shuffle guys back and forth as needed, but that list of 9 names has 5 who cannot be counted on to start games next year so it's not really depth.

  22. Was it dismissed with extreme prejudice or just the regular kind?
  23. They were terrified in 2007, too; it's a Chicago thing. Any of the Bulls playoff games, the Bears playing the Packers to go to the SB, [expletive] even the THIRD [expletive] Stanley Cup the Blackhawks were about to win in 6 years were dominated by timid, relatively quiet Chicago fans who seem convinced everything is going to go wrong. I want them to be going ape [expletive], dammit. This is all dumb and wrong.
