    I noticed that 99.7% of the stories he posts about politics and international events concern themselves with Muslims. I also made no judgement about this practice, so simmer down now

    what does the winner get?

    That is special, thanks Derwood! He would only have time to make those in support of himself if he hadn't gotten iced in the first round. to be honest, that one was made before I got iced. But yeah, not more vids for me. you bastards

    didn't want to start a whole new thread, but how many career records will Alex Rodriguez break? Let's take a look at his stats: if he continues his current pace, he'll finish 2007 with a line of: .315/.415/.697, 65 HR, 177 RBI, 157 runs That means at seasons end, his career numbers would stand at: .308/.391/.590, 529 HR, 1524 RBI, 1515 runs at the age of 32 years, 2 months outside of 1993 (129 games) he has not played fewer than 141 games per season. So his health is good, he can move to 1B/OF/DH in the future. Assuming he plays until at least 40, and assuming his average line over that time is (conservatively) 35 HR, 100 RBI, 100 runs, he'll have the following line at the end of 2016: 809 HR, 2324 RBI, 2315 runs. If he averages 170 hits a year, he would have 3504 hits. If he averages about 27 doubles a year he'll be over 600. Is there anyone else who can reach those kind of career numbers? Pujols has been unreal, but is so many years behind A-Rod for his career that you never know what will happen. ETA: those numbers (assuming he stopped at 40) would break the career HR, RBI, Runs and Extra Base Hits.

    i'd have to say no unless we also get a pre-cancer Big Cat

    This is why I like the wait-for-the-unhappy-Kobe-to-hit-the-free-agent-market-in-two-years plan. in 2 years, he'll want $30 mil/year or something outlandish.

    i just pulled bob to within 3

    Hey wait, I think OMC just posted 7 more topics in Social about Muslims

    You sure? The series against the Cubs is over. ;) i was swapping either McCann or Drew, but I have more faith that Drew can pull out a big second half than McCann

    the Cubs have a better chance of gaining ground on the Brewers when they don't play

    What exactly happened to IMB! ? There was a thread earlier in Rants that seemed to imply he got banned or something, but then I saw him posting in it. nothing besides losing to MOJ in the first round (as far as I know)

    miniature American Flags for all? No, for others. sorry, you failed the Simpsons quote. the correct answer was: "Abortions for some, miniature American Flags for everybody!" No, the actual quote is "Abortions for some, miniature American flags for others". So I win. damn my feeble brain

    Sure. How does that get rid of the opt-out clause? That's in his current contract. It would give Kobe more incentive to stay, but he could still leave after two seasons. i would assume that the extension would include erasing that clause
  15. Derwood
    I can't wait to see how this turns out

    I have to vote against the user that ousted IMB!
  18. Derwood
    The opt-out clause will still be there if he's traded. Another reason why trading the farm for Kobe could be risky. If he's not happy in Chicago after two years, he could leave with the Bulls getting nothing in return. wouldn't you think Paxson would want to negotiate an extension as part of any trade?
  19. Derwood
    Interesting idea. If something like that were done, I'd want to have any thread placed in the "Hall of Fame" to be locked. For example, I think the 2003 game 6 thread would be a candidate, but I sure wouldn't want people posting in that again. I think it should be more of a "look but don't touch" kind of thing. yes, absolutely. Like any good museum, it should be "look don't touch"

    you're assuming he isn't somewhere else with a contract extension by then

    Not for posters, as that gets too subjective, but for threads. Seems like some threads just become classics, and many older ones have been lost into the ether (Treeman's trade deadline thread, etc.) Not sure what the selection process would be, but it would be fun to have a forum for the all time classics
