  1. why? I assume:
  2. http://thesportspin.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/MLB-Shortstops-Swimsuit-Edition.jpg
  3. What she didn't say is he put on 20 pounds in the fall.
  4. That is the most bizarre support for a sport being the greatest game. Because the practice environment is very laid back? I'm glad you took my post literally as was clearly intended by the totally not made up and serious scenario of a baseball team having a super bowl party and coming up with the idea of spring training and banging college girls out of boredom. You're in mid-season form. Some might say the best shape of your life. Obviously the details within the post were silly nonsense, but the general sentiment that baseball is great because of spring training seemed earnest to me. Being a complete dick, however, clearly keeps you in everyday of your life form.
  5. Super happy I traded for him in my keeper league a couple years ago. He holds a special place on my bench. Man, that trade ended up super crappy for both parties. http://img.gawkerassets.com/img/19gek701i10eojpg/ku-xlarge.jpg

  7. lots of action in this. must be an amazing atmosphere live
  8. Somewhere between dunston and Gretzky
  9. Do you want us to prove to you that you actually can see him being successful, or do you want him to prove to you that he can be successful? I don't have high hopes for the experiment, partially because I don't see anything resembling top end defensive coaching available to Shea. But I can see it working out.
  10. As delicious as that wrong sandwich you vomit out of your mouth every time you speak?
  11. This is rich. Richly accurate, like nothing you've ever said.
  12. David continues to be wrong about as often as kyle.
  13. 4-4 doesn't seem right in first OT, but it sure has opened things up.
  14. the ref helps US and then an empty net post
  15. that should have been a penalty
  16. Khaki khaki everywhere. Khaki khaki I don't care.
  17. Soler tried to attack Buell Mueller with a bat but the new hitting coach caught him across the chin with a left.
  18. USA up 1-0 in gold medal game.
  19. Do you really not know the answer(s) to that question? The party line from the organization is that in order to support the payrolls of the late 2000s, they need the increased revenues/lower expenses that the renovation and/or new TV deal(s) will provide. Ownership has always been capable of supporting higher payrolls, but they haven't because of one or more of the following reasons: - They're trying to maximize profits by intentionally avoiding spending money - They have cash flow restrictions on how much they can spend on the team vis a vis their debt repayment as a result of the terms of the sale from Zell - They're intentionally minimizing future commitments to minimize their risk while the 500 million renovation project they would like to pay for and start construction on is up in the air We've known the reasons for a long time, and there's various logic(good and bad) behind each, it's just a matter of how much you believe any one of those reasons. You forgot, damage the rooftops business model by creating an environment where nobody wants to go to Cubs games for 3-4 years. That doesn't hurt a billionaire owner much.
  20. Haven't the Cubs picked up a dozen or so such players in the last few years? They do it for the need of a body, not actually belief in a prospect.
