    It goes strictly on tenure.

    Poop I was this close to thinking this team would be worth following this year. Well, this is what happens when you put yourself in a 100 loss hole. It's tough to wipe the stink of that off the entire organization. People lose their jobs, guys want out and others don't want to come.

    Nflnba insider on the mlb desk?

    Is it really politics though? I feel like too much gets thrown into politics. This is more of a mental health issue.

    Everybody knows that is for anti-semitism/racist/homophobic comments and/or genitalia pictures.

    So, if I'm understanding it correctly, basically the first Tweet was his friend attempting to [expletive] with people because he thinks the Tanaka stuff is crazy. Next couple are him explaining that his drunk buddy Tweeted that. Allegedly. So this is the whole "my friend took my phone and tweeted that as a joke" taken to the most boring extreme.

    And square it off at the top (well, rectangle it off).

    Man I feel like Jimmy G would be a great fit for Trestman's offense....accurate, strong arm but doesnt throw the deep ball real well. Whats the consensus on his draft stock...3rd/4th round but trending up? Yep, that's about his grade right now. Could see him going bottom of the 2nd, but I don't think he gets out of the 3rd after this week is over. He's the perfect Trestman QB. Very quick release. He reminds me a lot of McCown, but much younger and more talented. Not sure how a QB with a quick release reminds you a lot of McCown. He's got a pitchers windup back there.

    But you are talking about putting up the average Joes in typical bare bones condos, while Tanaka will probably be put into a unit that would rent for $25k/month or even much more. True. But so far as whatshisnames point was, it's not an unheard of arrangement, and MLS is a hard-capped league run by former NFL guys, so it must not be a big deal in terms of rules. The bottom line is the $1000/month apartment for Johnny Backup can be accounted for rather easily in a cap. Leasing a condo that would rent for $35k/month for only $1 probably needs to be treated as an additional $35k/month of payment. But with that you are talking about $420k over a year.

    With football and hockey, but with baseball, it's a lot harder to say. Seems like there's just overall a lot more rumor-mongering and "inside info" that turns out to be wrong. Buster Olney maybe? Just go ahead and follow a handful of Chicago area media types, who will pass along anything of value anyway. Then use it to follow whatever peaks your interest outside of sports.

    He's either deciding now or has decided The (-_-;) at the end means he's nervous/anxious We know that he hates money or loves it or doesn't care about money and hates butts or loves them.

    If weather was ever going to play a part I sure am glad that the east coast is dealing with this now.

    I do like the idea of PATs being made slightly more difficult. Put it on the 15 and snap from there. Does the two point still start from the 2 and a half? Can you fake it from the 15? Is that one or two? I think you need to put the 2 point try closer, whether it remains where it is currently or not can be up for debate. A fake from the 15 would have to be a 2.

    Wait I can't do that all the time? ct, bringing the takes:

    I agree, I think it's ridiculous. I wonder if it is somehow motivated by a desire to reduce the money paid to kickers and long snappers. This year it appears the typical team attempted 41 or 42 XP and 30 or 31 FG. Obviously the emphasis is on the FG when it comes to hiring those guys, but if you have 40 less long snaps every year, and 40 less kicks, are teams going to emphasize their special teams specialists a little less?

    Unless the iPhone just displays it differently I can't see them being the same. His style was unique and consistent.

    Which is why I voted cubs in poll

    I don't know about that For 2015, the Yanks have A-Rod(38), Teixeira(33, 34 in April), CC(33), Ellsbury(30), McCann(30), Brendan Ryan(32), and Matt Thornton(37) under contract for close to 127 mill. For 2016, they've got the same group, minus Ryan and Thornton for slightly under 124 mill. For 2017, they've got 64 mill invested in A-Rod, Ellsbury, and McCann. They have one of the worst systems in the game to pull from and not much flexibility to make major acquisitions, as it is. And old as dirt. I would take our current situation and a capped 110 mill payroll for the next 5 years than theirs, capped at 200, for that same time. And we have a TV deal coming, to where ours won't be stuck, while theirs very likely is going to hover in that range. After a luxury tax reset nyy payroll is going way up.

    I couldn't care less about him. Haven't read the suntimes in a very long time. You should probably pity him rather than hate him though. He was fed a BS story about debt and then was late to realize how stupid it was and the real problem has just been the cubs tanking by choice.

    Oh yeah, I have an irrational hatred for Pete Carroll. [expletive] is a truther. I hope someone asks him what he thinks about 9/11 on media day so he's exposed to the whole country for the raging douchebag he is. You realize that the % of people that believe that 9/11 was a shadyass event is actually extremely high. I cant remember what newspaper did a poll on it, but it was something like 40%. That's not a reason for hating Pete Carroll. We got ourselves another truther here. Mind if I call you Asner?
