  1. Hopefully a lot of the fans have grown the horsefeathers up since the Fukudome days. I'm hopeful but not optimistic. I guess that was literally ten years ago tho. Hopefully there are fewer idiots.
  2. Sounds like an article that was written about the Mets pitching staff a few years ago. “Let’s put all our eggs in the young/homegrown pitchers basket and what could go wrong?”
  3. "Cubs regain their edge in NL Central by signing Yu Darvish" http://www.espn.com/blog/keith-law/insider/post?id=8026
  4. Just saw the title of an ESPN Insider article that says that the signing of Darvish has allowed the Cubs to "regain" control in the division. I'd love to know who they thought was in control yesterday
  5. How long has he been sitting on that article?
  6. You try to get the most stones possible closest to the center of the thing. It is a very simple game. I get that, but there's scoring and strategy and terminology I always forget
  7. Drove it right up to......below projected AAV? Well done, Stearns Also, love that the person making that statement is a Global Moderator.
  8. Every Winter Olympics I learn the rules of Curling, and then by the next one, I've completely forgotten them and am totally confused. There should be a constant scroll on the bottom of the screen explaining what the horsefeathers is going on
  9. Ha ha ha, good one, Jersey Wait, what?
  10. Wisconsin went 12-0 in the regular season and barely pulled a top 40 draft class. Recruiting is weird
  11. they rarely ever do. this isn't some sort of anomaly. so lol at you I guess that's why they pay Ferentz all that money
  12. It's an air tight marketing strategy, as there are zero Cubs fans who are also Wisconsin residents. Also, Wisconsin residents never ever sell their tickets on the secondary market.
  13. Didn't want to start a whole new thread just for recruiting..... So are Michigan fans still in love with Harbaugh? Seems like he's been a colossal disappointment. He's not beating his rivals, and now he doesn't even pull a top 20 recruiting class? What's happening in Ann Arbor? Also lol that Iowa didn't land a single 4-star recruit.
  14. Well he took OSU to the tourney in 9 of his 13 seasons, won 5 regular season Big 10 titles, 4 BTT titles and went to 2 Final 4s. So probably not bad but not sure what he did to cause the program to tank his last few years. I clearly meant in recent years (they didn't even get an NIT invite last year). I know Matta's health problems were bad, but his recruiting really fell off near the end
  15. Was Thad Matta that bad as OSU coach? Who saw this turnaround coming?
  16. I wonder if that's an indicator of Luck's health (or lack of)? Eh I doubt there's some secret info about Lucks health that made McDaniels change his mind. If anything in means something about Bellichicks future. Meaning you think he's setting himself up to take over in New England? Would you want to be the first coach up after ~20 years of Brady/Belichick dominance (assuming Brady goes when Belichick goes)?
  17. [tweet]https://twitter.com/RonanFarrow/status/960270364243832834[/tweet]
  18. This has truly been the Smashmouth of off seasons.
  19. So 31 year olds with 19 career bWAR are going for $8.5M AAV? Time to get Yu back on the phone
  20. Bwa ha ha ha.....Kevin Hart is trying to beg his way onto the stage, and a bouncer isn't having it
  21. Foles did go 28-43, 373, 3 TDs, 1 INT and a TD catch. The yards were the 5th most in a Super Bowl. And he’ll be a back up next year He could demand a trade, I suppose
