  1. I'd have less of an issue if they hadn't come out with that whole PR campaign about how they vetted him thoroughly and talked up his character. That's the reason they look so awful right now. Yeah, they went out of their way to let the world know George was against it from the start but was persuaded by McDonald buying his own plane ticket and then having a conversation with his parents. Plus, Fangio "vouched" for his character. They should have said we are taking a chance on him and expect him to be on the straight and narrow and leave it at that. Hub's article was essentially correct, but horribly misguided in its timing. They weren't "wrong" in taking a chance on the guy, but they did handle it wrong and now is not the time to plead their case.

  3. trading away most overpaid players is best way to not overpay your players? Huh, who woulda thunk it?
  4. I do not think this is true because lots of people care about pitcher W-L records but comparatively few people care about QB W-L record. People talk about QB super bowls or lack thereof. They talk about yards and touchdowns and interceptions and playoff records. But I do not hear a lot about QB regular season records. There is some, but it doesn't really compare to pitcher records. yeah it's not even all that close really To be honest, I hear/see more about pitcher win totals rather than record. If somebody went 18-5 or 18-15 he's an 18-game winner.

  7. that would be his tweets quoting the Bears statement.
  8. If you pay a mediocre goalie $6m you can't afford better skaters. If your goalie can't do more than the rest do not pay him.
  9. At least they get to pay Crawford more and can't afford better skaters
  10. Omg this is dumb. I assume ar means Arkansas which obviously means dumbassmotherfucker Using stats and facts isn't really dumb First off, I issued goony a warning for his post. Second, I think the part that people are reacting to is the first paragraph, not your stats and facts. fair warning, I was expecting the filter to work, also War for a year vs War thru may 25 is incredibly stupid.
  11. Kujay with the dagger from downtown,so hot
  12. Omg this is dumb. I assume ar means Arkansas which obviously means pottymouthlanguage
  13. You realize that the Ducks are out there for the same amount of time, right? Yes, but I also saw the end of the game. Did you skip the first overtime because nobody looked gassed then. Both teams screeched to a halt in second overtime.
  14. In what weird world does that look like Bryant at all?
  15. How do you walk Ross there? This guys a coward
  16. Fireable offense? That's so dumb.
  17. http://www.bleachernation.com/2015/05/22/addison-russell-is-on-a-tear-in-his-last-21-games-homered-last-night-video/ That was written confusingly. I wish he'd said "excluding his first week". As written it sounds like Russell has only been up for a week. Hah, when I read it that was exactly what I thought and then figured I was doing a really poor job of keeping track of time if it's only been a week.
  18. A late 80s built stadium would have required massive renovations by now anyway.
  19. I'm sure they did, but I kind of remember them being strong armed into staying at Soldier Field. The parking/restrooms stuff is fun to bitch about but doesn't really matter in the long run as they will still sell out every game. Not having 80,000+ capacity and a retractable roof costing the city Billions in potential revenue from Super Bowls, Final Fours, other events (CFB playoff, B1G title game, etc...) is the most inexcusable part of the whole thing. Those events do not really bring in that type of revenue and bitching about no roof is dumb.
  20. Chris Kuc ‏@ChrisKuc 2m2 minutes ago #Blackhawks recall defenseman Trevor van Riemsdyk from Rockford of AHL.
  21. Isn't "assuming the mortgages" the complete opposite of the report above that said they were not assuming any debt?
