  1. Seriously, stop rooting for outcomes that mean the SEC is back in the title game. Shame on you all
  2. That vaunted SEC defense
  3. Which of the 2013 Yankees outfielders are free agents? They had Soriano, Gardner, Ichiro and Vernon Wells, and have added Ellsbury and Beltran
  4. Christ, I have to argue with both sides of you lunatics. What exactly was so horrific about the Soriano contract? Ask the people who bitched and moaned about it every day since it was signed
  5. It's like the Soriano contract never happened
  6. Just read through those mocks, and there seems not to be any sort of consensus. Could be very interesting this year. Of course the mocks will align more closely once we know who's declaring and how players show at pro-days/the combine
  7. I'm not worried about the Mariners. I'm worried about precedent and the setting of the market down the line. I was hoping that GM's would learn from the Pujols deal, but they have not. I'm kinda shocked that the "#poortomricketts" crowd isn't more concerned about impact bats getting ludicrous contracts
  8. yeah, but the DH is poopy and what are the chances he'll be better than a league-average DH in years 7-10 of that contract? Then again, in 2020, $24 mil/year will be the going rate for league-average
  9. the irony is that if NIU went to a BCS game, they would probably lose money on the venture, while all the shitty MAC schools would get free money
  10. So how many starting 2B last year were 35 or older? And how many of those would still be owed $120 million for years 36-41? This contract is ludicrous
  11. Hey, thanks for tiring the Wild out last night
  12. What is a pants-on-head contract? GMs hand out contracts that their owners can afford. I don't see why we should worry about it. Derwood wants the owners to keep more money. I want the owners to spend their money wisely, or cut overall spending a bit and drop ticket prices
  13. It's unbelievable that GM's have such short term memories and continue to hand out pants-on-head contracts.
  14. Boo hoo, my team's best 3 players are all injured
  15. Blind "taste test" of five teams being considered for NC game School Team A Team B Team C Team D Team E Opp. Winning Percentage .506 .496 .604 .493 .569 Total Margin of Victory (Season) 259 238 134 464 188 Margin of Victory per Game 23.54 23.80 12.18 42.18 17.09 Current BCS Top 25 Opp. 2 3 5 2 4 Coaches’ Top 25 Opp. At Time 3 4 6 4 6 Top 50 BCS Opp. Played 4 6 8 2 6 Sub-75 BCS Opp. Played 3 4 2 4 1 Avg. Current BCS Rank of Opp. 59.25 57.00 41.75 62.16 46.66
  16. probably beneath Vanderbilt but above Kentucky, so more like 13th best. sounds about right. But if (IF) OSU did well and won the SEC, it would just point to the strength of the conference or something
  17. OSU would be like the 9th best SEC team, amirite?
  18. You just described every person who posts rumors, though. he just described Twitter.
  19. so far as I can tell, Boise State and Ohio State were the only undefeated teams that year. If the only two undefeated teams right now were FSU and Boise State, I think an argument for Auburn holds much more weight
  20. It's why I wonder why you're so deeply invested in recruiting. You know all your future players will turn into turds once they get on campus
  21. I'd love Allen Robinson to come back for his senior year, but his stock won't ever be higher than a ~1500 yard receiving year
  22. Seattle's offensive play calling is awfully impressive
  23. Peyton has a flight time with Brady, so a loss to NE wouldn't surprise anyone
  24. A Seattle vs. Denver Super Bowl would be very entertaining
