  1. Building his stamina and innings is a process. You don't just decide to go 35/220 just because you want him there eventually.
  2. Aggressive stupidity strikes again. Not even close
  3. Some are UDAs and some won't get another contract after their first one. Most could give a [expletive] about finishing college but it's [expletive] stupid to make those that care choose between the two. What's so stupid about it? They let them choose between staying in school or coming out early. I think it's stupid to have a catch-all rule like this to treat paid professional adults like 8th graders, but only have that rule affect those whose schools choose to operate on a different schedule than most.
  4. UDFA? EDIT: Yep. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/football/bears/chi-chicago-bears-mark-harrison-sidelined-20130510,0,268701.story He has to be a camp casualty candidate.
  5. Was she there with a gay man?
  6. Zach Zaidman ‏@ZachZaidman 17m Rutgers WR Mark Harrison (foot) failed his Bears physical.
  7. http://img.gawkerassets.com/img/18n5wdtav3szrjpg/ku-xlarge.jpg
  8. Paul Sullivan ‏@PWSullivan 2m Kameron Loe was once here. Now he's not. #released
  9. http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/mlb/cubs/2013/05/08/chicago-cubs-want-to-renovate-99-year-old-wrigley-field/2145735/ A relative whose local paper apparently farms out articles from the USA Today pointed out this article yesterday. He's a Cardinals fan and noted how unfair it was for the Cubs to be bullying the neighborhood. Got to love the loaded term, "notorious tenant", as if the Cubs are some hoodlum organization renting a room in a flop house.
  10. Paul Sullivan ‏@PWSullivan 47m Dolis back to Iowa to make room for Fuji.
  11. well maybe, we'll see. but still, YES also this Dutch?
  12. Yikes. This guy says Frazier is the best player in the draft and says so matter-of-factly. Also says being a prep position player is one of the reasons he won't go 1.1. Yeesh. Similar thinking as the guy from perfect game that TT posted a couple weeks ago.
  13. I just want to face Detroit. Better than three weeks of west coast travel.
  14. And then 3 years from now he should be somebody's backup.
  15. So the only way to do that is for Hossa not to think about it or have Torres taken out in the first minute of the series. I don't see the point.
  16. Yeah, DeJesus has 12 PA against LHP this season (compared to Starlin and Rizzo with ~45 each) and he's got a sub 300 OPS in those PA.
  17. Which is just going to inspire them to run a Blackhawks star.
  18. There's no way this is true, right? Am I reading it wrong?
  19. are you asking us or telling us?
  20. Not sure what the point is of pretending like their degrees matter anymore once they've been drafted and sign a contract in the NFL.
  21. Futbol sure does lend itself to some serious crazy talk.
  22. Last year, I think It's been a lot longer than that. I'd guess a minimum of 4 years. It never forced him to miss any time while he was with the Cards, and I don't think it was as bad as it's been lately, but it was something that was talked about pretty regularly. ETA: According to Wikipedia, he was first diagnosed in the second half of the 2004 season. Wow, I completely missed that. I knew of his other health issues, but was completely blanked on that when I, like TT, was big on signing him. I remember it because I used the description of his issue to self diagnose it in myself (most likely inaccurately).
  23. It's a song they sing after winning games, so I'm not sure why people hate it so much. It's a really cheesy song, so I guess it's that. It's just always been there for me; 1984 was the first year I was a fan and it was a semi-big deal then, plus my parents bought me the damn thing and being a little kid I played it until everyone's ears bled. It's burned into my brain whether I like it or not. It was a thing in 1984?! I don't think that's right It was played on the radio when I was a kid, and then came back as a thing after the games more recently. I don't have any memory of it being played at the games back then, but I rarely went as a kid.
  24. As many issues as they've had with the bullpen I would think they'd want to hold onto him for next year at least just for the stability.
