    you said minutes 90 minutes is still minutes I searched on twitter when you said that and there was plenty of speculation that he was gone so I assumed your secret source was the twitter search function.

    I would not say "just as long", Boston started doing things differently in the early 2000s, but they were just like a lot of other teams under Duquette. Beane and Alderson were doing their things in the 90s. But yeah that makes a lot of sense. I was under the impression that LA's payroll was inflated in a marketing move upon launch of the new network. But the Yankees have been supposed to be cutting back big time for 5 years now without actually doing it. My guess is LA won't be willing to tolerate the inevitable losing that would happen if they drastically cut payroll and they will instead just hold steady or trim here and there.

    Is that average length that much different than the average length of other sports? Seems about the same as the NFL. I'd just venture to say that NFL game times vary a lot less in length than MLB does. I think NHL and NBA games are significantly shorter than those, while NFL is probably as much as 10 minutes longer. The big difference there is of course you only commit to one per week for NFL, but baseball needs the same people to watch multiple times every week to make their numbers work, and NBA/NHL are in between.

    That didn't help every team outside the AL East in the wild card chase when the Yankees were at their peak. It could cause other teams in the NL West to try harder and gobble up more great players in an arms race that the Cubs will not participate in for 5 years.

    31. And the most important thing is the club level. The Parks dept didn't screw up the playing surface. The Bears insisting on grass over turf is what has screwed up the playing surface. Really? I thought it was the Park district that insisted on it. So much confusion out there It has been reported on numerous occasions that the Bears have final say over the turf, and they have hesitated to go with artificial due to questions about player safety.

    I assume he has call waiting.

    Wasn't this reported/speculated last week?

    Ideal is perfect grass, but that isn't possible in Soldier Field.

    It's not the native soil as much as the strips of sod they constantly have to replace. Those things just cannot be as sturdy as the permanent ground that maintains grass year round.

    6'9" and only 215? Is this truffle?
  15. jersey cubs fan
    Nope.

    ?? It's not that bullish. Bullish would be something akin to a strong buy rating. This description is much more hold or outperform. Not particularly glowing. Multiple uses of the word average.

    If anything this over the top response to the Manny situation sets the Cubs up for not thawing their hatred of Sammy. They've set the bar at "guy needs to jump through hoops and turn his life around in order to get back on our good side". That should be disconcerting for anybody who wants to see Sammy somewhere that acknowledges the fact that he played for the Cubs and was very good.

    I get needing to explain when he was hired, but what in the holy hell is he going on about turnings lives around months after he was hired and seemingly did a good job that nobody has complained about? There's not some simmering level of disgust and anger about Manny maybe being a minor league assistant hitting coach. He's not in charge of making sure Bryant is a stud. He's one of several coaches in the system and there have been plenty of positive reviews. So why does he feel the need to make the world think Theo dragged this bum out of a corner pub when he only had $37 left to his name?
  19. jersey cubs fan
    Yes, but "turn his life around"? That seems excessive.
