  1. I think hockey players as a general rule don't show a lot of personality in interviews. I know Toews certainly wouldn't ever have been described as Mr. Charisma
  2. I wonder how much better the entire defense would look with a real rim protector, and not Vuc
  3. I believe that KJ will flourish in the NBA with more talented teammates (not that Illinois wasn't a good college team, but they're not a team full of NBA guys). I think some of his issues stemmed from teammates not seeing the game like he did and him feeling like he had to do too much, combined with general inexperience. He has tremendous talent, but he's still 18 and working with the best players in the world (yes, even on a lottery team) will help elevate his game. Sucks that he won't be back for another year, but that's the game now
  4. I will only watch full games if Illinois is playing... otherwise, I'll check in during the 2H of games in the tourney, and watch if they're close
  5. Like, that wasn't close And the announcers refuse to acknowledge it.
  6. So they just gave Ohtani a HR instead of calling obvious fan interference?
  7. Would have been nice to have the ability to challenge a clear strike 3
  8. Michigan needs to just make sure they don't get too cute. Throw it in to Goldin and let him feast. Dude should get 30 against that San Diego front line. I have no idea if Illinois will perform well. But I predict the margin (either way) will be in double digits.
  9. C Shea Langeliers $75 1B Vlad Guerrero Jr. $100 2B Zack Gelof $50 3B Jose Ramirez $150 SS Gunnar Henderson $150 LF Yordan Alvarez $150 CF PCA $25 RF Kyle Tucker $75 DH Aaron Judge $200 Total $975 Will PM bench players
  10. good grief Tom, the guys over there just don't have enough time/energy/whatever to keep running the site at the level they think it deserves. They're all still doing their thing, just not as frequently and in separate locations around the web.
  11. Think he signed somewhere. Atlanta maybe?
  12. I like Jarrett, interior pass rush should be improved, which makes it easier on the edges. I like the plan so far. Build the trenches, maybe grab a skill guy at 10, or just go get another big boy and trust Johnson and Caleb (and DJ, Rome, Kmet, etc.) to put points on the board
  13. Congrats on trading Geno Smith for practically nothing. (Edit: thought the pick was lower, i guess a 3rd isnt too bad.) Now you get... basically Geno Smith, only without DK Metcalf or Tyler Lockett and for more money
  14. May is a good coach. Will be interesting to see how their roster is rebuilt
  15. Yep, the double ear flaps and high socks. Bellhorn
  16. After the season he had last year as a hitter, there just doesn't seem to be any reason to risk losing his bat. If he blows out his arm again, you've lost an MVP.
  17. I would expect Mack to have more left in the tank than Bosa, but of those options I like Hendrickson the best. Maybe a 2nd rounder and a future conditional pick?
  18. wouldn't be surprised to see one of Lopez or Jankowski on the 26 man to open (probably Lopez with Nico's injury) one of the catchers will probably be up at some point seems like Keller has a shot at the pen to open the year, would love to see Hughes back in form and make some appearances
