    Let's assume the NFL doesn't want to add teams, what teams could legitimately threaten and go forward with leaving for SD/what teams could SD try and lure in with a stadium package? I can't think of many other than 1 of the LA teams after a few years of nobody going to their games? Jacksonville? Cleveland?
  2. Cubswin11
    The other owners make a lot more money if SD moves rather than gets a new stadium, something like $600 million divided between all the teams.

    There seems to be no real consistency in that video with his swing/set up/hands/arms/etc, they are just drills, so it could be they are trying to get him to barrel the ball/get a correct launch angle off the tee/contact without really worrying about mechanics. With that being said I'm no expert and if he's still awful come May I'm in favor of him just going with the Happy Gilmore swing the rest of the year.

    Good for San Diego though for not caving and letting a sports team steal money from them

    I was hoping the Cardinals would really overpay for him instead of signing Dexter word is the Astros were a bit down on him Don't know how this went over my head, but nice job

    Tampas OF is really crowded with left-handed bats right now with Rasmus, Smith, Dickerson and Kiermaier. I wonder if another move is coming for them. Also, not that I'd expect a ton back, they seem like a team to trade Szczur to if we feel he essentially has no spot here.

    Plus we likely get a Biden-Maddon interaction which is sure to give us some great material/quotes

    I still can't believe they gave Desmond 70 millions bucks to play first base. On top of losing a pick/pool money that's one of the worst FA signings I can think of in a while. They've spent about $100 on Desmond and Gerardo Parra the last two offseasons in FA.....

    Bowden is saying the Rockies want to extend Cargo, what a confounding organization

    I know he's not necessarily a sleeper but I really like Zagunis, I think he's one of those relatively unheralded prospects who has a nice MLB career. I could see him being a variation of Zobrist/Nick Swisher type offensive player with a little less power or Joe Mauer (minus the one like 30 HR year) with a little less average.

    I think tackle starts in my area in 6th or 7th grade. At least it did when I was that age ~15 years ago. I'd say there's a good portion of kids in my city though that don't really start playing, or learning, football until they get to HS (there's two Public HS with enrollment that puts them at the highest level in the state and the 2 private schools have a combined team). Suffice to say the football programs in my city are lucky to win 1-2 games a year.

    Probably at one of those ridiculously huge and gaudy Mormon Church's.

    I think 90% of the posters on this board could get open against the Packers secondary today

    I enjoyed the Ari character and to a lesser degree Drama. It was mindless TV I could watch in the summer for 20 min on a Sunday night when I was 18-23 it was what it was.

    I liked Entourage on a whole, for what it was.
  21. Cubswin11
    Ballers (nothing much is on Sunday nights in Summer), House of Cards (after season 1 has been pretty bad), and Homeland haven't seen those mentioned yet. And also the already mentioned Dexter and Jersey Shore
  22. Cubswin11
    Miguel Tejada maybe too?

    Gallardo sucks, Smith is decent. Odd trade

    I accidentally deleted my post when trying to edit it.... Anyways, yeah I'd say make Yellich an auction guy, without knowing too much about the league I think any of Samardzija, Maeda, and Franco would get bid on if put to auctions and not guys you would be keeping really if money is tight. Definitely keep Swanson, I think Javy is worth it for the positional versatility and being able to allow you more freedom in roster construction. Knowing a little more now I'd say keep Javy, Turner, Story, Roark, Monty and 1 of Hedgers, Finnegan or Renfroe then also keep Swanson since he costs nearly nothing and doesn't count as a keeper.

    Hopefully we are one of the 6... [tweet] [/tweet] [tweet] [/tweet]
