  1. He looks like he has greyscale.
  2. One of the TV announcers last year, can't remember which one, called him Ashlawn.
  3. yeah, I'm going to need to listen to a little bit of the Brewers broadcast later tonight. They were going on about how the league had figured him out. Heh.
  4. Purdue got a commit from a 3-Star PG from Texas. IU fans apparently made fun of this shortly before IU signed a 0-Star SG out of northwest Indiana. :hello:
  5. I'm a Cubs/Bears/Blackhawks/Bulls/Purdue fan. She's a Brewers/Packers/Bucks/Wisconsin (from Green Bay) fan. The only team she'll support is the Blackhawks. This is what I get for marrying the enemy.
  6. Kind of glad it's a day game, the wife is going to murder me if I keep watching games every night.
  7. Brewers announcers were still talking about Montero not blocking the slider after the game was over. lulz
  8. I'm stuck with the Brewers broadcast. Rock is a bitter old man.
  9. His misogynistic rant on twitter rounded out his move to the 'hate' category nicely.
  10. Whenever I see Garza now I think of his comments about the Cubs rebuilding and him wanting to play for a winner. He goes to a team that almost immediately starts a rebuild and he's pitching so shitty he can't get traded to a contender. Just cracks me up.
  11. That's bad news for the Cubs. Hopefully they won't hire a competent person. Meh, Melvin was fine as a GM. He never had much in the way of a payroll to work with. So he took his time, put together a very competitive team for a few years, and is eating dust now that they've left their competitive window. He's not the guy I'd have heading up my list of candidates if I was an owner looking for a new GM. But he'd be a great GM for a team with a strong/involved team president. Right. He couldn't afford to keep Fielder, they gambled on trading for Sabathia and Greinke and couldn't afford to keep either of them. He turned out Fielder, Braun, Lucroy, Weeks, Hart, Hardy, traded for Sabathia, Greinke, Gomez, Lind, K-Rod. I'm sure I'm forgetting guys. He made some good moves. They just never had enough home grown pitching and couldn't afford to keep most guys, Braun got busted, etc...
  12. It's too bad Majestic makes the sherseys. I have an old, mostly retired, Rizzo and newer Soler and Bryant shirts but it feels like the quality is kinda crappy on them.
  13. Wonder if Pace learned from Ray mcdonald He has to have. Cowboys maybe? Bengals?
  14. I said it's solely about that? Ok.
  15. How stupid can their marketing people be? How long ago was their rape scandal?
  16. Yeah, that's not what rape is about. Oh, it's smart? Don't be dense. What's wrong about saying if he raped someone it's stupid? Throwing your life away is stupid. Especially for a guy that has a hell of a lot to lose and pretty much hit the jackpot in life. Hopefully this is a money grab. The alternative being that one of our favorite athletes is a terrible person.
  17. Yeah, that's not what rape is about. Oh, it's smart?
  18. If true, this would require a colossal level of stupidity on his part. He has a nearly bottomless supply of women throwing themselves at him.
  19. He does have a lot of practice learning new offenses.
  20. Saturday games are way better for those looking to party. Which I assume are a lot of people going to Cub games....
  21. The upshot to yesterday's rainout, now we don't even have to run out 5th starter du jour in an important series. They didn't have to do that either way, all this is doing is moving Lester forward a day. Same 4 guys before and after the rain out. I like splitting up Lester and Arrieta. It prevents those three game series where neither pitch. I'm sure that makes no statistical difference, but it makes me feel better. :stickman:
  22. ESPN switched to the White Sox game and you immediately hear a Sox fan yell "Logan you (gay slur)" at Logan Forsythe.
