  1. saw that and very intentionally didn't link. just brutal. i do like how straightforward karros was about "yeah, i still assumed we'd win game 6" and "we had a lead in game 7 and all thought we were going to win that, too." Maybe somebody should tell him how lazy Aramis bought airplane tickets already!
  2. I'd hate him more if he didn't get picked off to end a World Series game last year. That's like my sports highlight of the last 2 years
  3. you said minutes And he wasn't fired.
  4. I'd imagine Kemp could be traded without them picking up a dime. Maybe even get something interesting in return.
  5. He's also inheriting 39.1 WAR from that group(quick calculation, apologies if I missed something) and Logan White. We're [expletive]. Were you expecting the Dodgers to be bad in the short term? Nope, and now there's no long shot hope that they'll be bad in the long-term
  6. He's also inheriting 39.1 WAR from that group(quick calculation, apologies if I missed something) and Logan White. We're fucked.
  7. He's ruined imb's DRose twitter. I think you should make him like super intelligent now.
  8. The rumblings I heard don't paint a pretty picture for any of them.
  9. Wouldn't the lack of OMG ceiling lead Hiroshima to be more likely to collect their 20M? There's less benefit for them to hold on to him.
  10. Yeah, those meatballs make up the vast majority of fans/paying customer of his team. So he kinda has to put on the PR show for them. He can't pander to the baseball savants of this board, it's not what's best for business. Yeah, but how many of those meatballs even know who the Cubs minor league hitting coaches are at any given moment? Sure, Manny is a [expletive] load more famous, but I doubt it's a thing the average fan is really worried about or even aware of. And if he HAD effectively said something like, "Manny and I have a great relationship going back a while and he's a fantastic hitter who can teach a lot" how is it going to harm anything? What, people aren't going to buy as many tickets if he doesn't talk about Manny like he's an ex-meth head? It's just gross. I don't imagine they'd "have to" to say something similar if they (stupidly) brought Grace back in some capacity. Then your issue is with your run of the mill dumbass Cub fan.
  11. I guess I don't get Mojo's annoyance. He's totally pandering to meatballs, but he's a team President, that's a big part of his job.
  12. Get ready for lots of fake injuries.
  13. I think if you acquire an OF he has to be able to fake it in CF for a couple years if need be.
  14. Checking out where he spent most of his career-the whirlpool and trainer's room. [expletive] lazy [expletive]
  15. If both Mississippi teams were undefeated, they're both in regardless of what happens from there. Also, I would like OMC to somehow live stream the entire day in Oxford if that happens. The only way it doesn't happen is if Georgia wins out including the SEC title game. Then you'd have three one-loss SEC schools and unless everyone else has two losses, I can't see them going with three SEC schools. Not with Notre Dame and FSU potentially only having one loss combined. I think I'd leave out Georgia in that scenario. Well that would be odd considering they would have just beaten the team on a neutral field. In that scenario georgia gets in, but i doubt georgia is good enough to pull this off. Also Miss St still has to beat Bama at Bama. It is far more likely neither mississippi school gets in than both get in. It would also be really stupid if a team lost their conference championship game and got into the playoff unless the team that wins the conference is #1. So reward Big XII teams who don't have to play an extra game against a top team at the end of the year?

Not with Notre Dame and FSU potentially only having one loss combined. I think I'd leave out Georgia in that scenario. It would depend on how exactly the West shook out, but 1-loss Georgia has a pretty good resume. Wins v. Auburn and whichever Mississippi school won the west, non-con wins v. Clemson and Georgia Tech. If Auburn won the Iron Bowl and didn't slip up elsewhere I think you have to take Georgia. The west is deep, but not so deep that a 1-loss SEC champ from the East that beat 2 of the 3 best schools in the West doesn't get a playoff spot. Well all 3 schools would have beaten Auburn in this scenario. They're irrelevant to the equation. I'd take the top 6 in the West over every non-Georgia school, so the Mississippi schools would have win over 2-6 and 3-6 respectively. I don't think Clemson is enough to make up for that.

  18. Not remotely surprised.
  19. Give them a curtain call Rosenthal!
  20. Big ups to Joe Buck for filling us in on the football game on a 2-2 count with 2 outs in the 9th and the tying run on 2nd.
  21. HOLY [expletive] [expletive] YES
  22. Verducci with lots of food references when talking about Matt Adams
  23. Joe Buck doesn't even try anymore
  24. I'm pretty sure every pitcher ever could do that Harold.
