Derwood

This guy likes the trade:

How many years on the agreement?

So the lockout obviously sucked, but the compressed free agency/trading period is going to be bananas.

Bruce Weber (and his weird haircut) are stepping down at KSU

I believe the seeds were based purely on post count. As such, here is the hypothetical match-ups of a "there's zero reason to actually do this again" Best Poster Tournament: (1) CaliforniaRaisin vs. (16) Post Count Padder (1) Sammy Sofa vs. (16) shnsajax (1) UMFan83 vs. (16) bcl412 (1) Derwood vs. (16) Keener98 (2) Banedon vs. (15) The Logan (2) jersey cubs fan* vs. (15) WrigleyField 22 (2) Fred Hornkohl vs. (15) Laura (2) David vs. (15) Tracer Bullet (3) Transmogrified Tiger vs. (14) rocket (3) TruffleShuffle vs. (14) Chris (3) SouthSideRyan vs. (14) bukie (3) vance_the_cubs_fan vs. (14) erik316wttn (4) Tim vs. (13) kujay (4) Stannis vs. (13) Omar (4) Soul vs. (13) XZero77 (4) Jon vs. (13) dew (5) soccer10k vs. (12) treebird (5) OleMissCub vs. (12) USSoccer (5) Ding Dong Johnson vs. (12) minnesotacubfan (5) Hairyducked Idiot vs. (12) davell (6) rawaction vs. (11) UK (6) Andy vs. (11) NCCubFan (6) big ball chunky time vs. (11) Flames24Rulz (6) Outshined_One vs. (11) abuck1220 (7) Butterscup vs. (10) EJ (7) Brian vs. (10) C.C.

I don't know who Marco is/was, but they Cinderella'd their way pretty far

Nah, he just started mainlining steroids

That's a fair point. But at the same time, they are pricing people out of attending games as well. Which dumb fans blame on the "greedy players", so the higher prices are a PR win for the owners

You mean the one that derwood came up with and promoted only to get bounced in the first round? (I think it was derwood. Sorry if I’m wrong but if it wasn’t it sounds like a derwood thing) Oh, it was definitely me, and I DEFINITELY lost in the opening round. I think vance won?

0-14

Sports teams are such a terrible investment that its time to buy another one

0-13 against the top teams. Oof.

Only 4 steps after the dribble (lol)

Of course it's the Reds.

Oof, Young dropping 39

That's a BAD loss for OSU

Commissioners largely are puppets and carrying out the wishes of owners, I really don’t know how much power they truly have. This is all on owners, imo. Not defending Manfred by any means but it’s not like he has autonomy to make a deal, the owners suck and he’s just a face/extension of them and they clearly don’t want to cut a deal outside of their extreme terms. They choose him to break/weaken the union. He was among their top lawyers before they made him commissioner. He's doing his job. Goodell is a shill for the NFL owners, yet he avoided a labor stoppage

This is on Rob Manfred. His job as commissioner is to get both sides to the table early and often. Say what you will about Roger Goodell, but there has never been a missed game on his watch

Canceled. Thanks!

Will flexing across days cause more of a logistical headache than its worth? If not I would guarantee them at least the 2nd best matchup when the TV schedule is calculated. The overall matchups on MNF generally have been trash. Mostly because they insist on clogging the timeslot up with terrible NFC East matchups

You know its bad when the announcers (whose primary job is to keep viewers from changing the channel) are openly mocking how bad it is

They can share it with the Chargers
