    Lots of transfers, and the rule requiring them to sit out a year doesn't look like it'll hit until next year. DeJulius from Michigan, Haarms from Purdue(likely a grad transfer for immediate eligiblity) and Griffin from Illinois
  2. SouthSideRyan
    This will only encourage them to not pursue employment

    Granting that I have zero interest in this, but what the hell can they talk about for 10 episodes? There once was a great basketball player, his team won the championship, and Dennis Rodman is a weirdo.
  4. SouthSideRyan
    That's clearly Robert Smigel
  5. SouthSideRyan
    The Ricketts family probably lost a lot of money

    They should lower it to 64 teams, move the schedule up to start this Saturday if possible. If still able run, games Tuesday-Sunday next week and you're down to 4. If things have gotten worse, you do that Final 4 whenver.

    Well Hoiberg's next game will be some time in November, so I'd hope he wasn't quarantined out til then.

    Penn State losing means we only need the one win for top 4, but I’d have preferred MSU go down to make winning conference outright a reasonable hope
  9. SouthSideRyan
    No

    2025, that’s not even a real year

    Yes to 'it's a start', no to pretty much the rest of it, especially the next sentence. If you travel for work, the company you work for covers a vast majority of your expenses. You don't get your salary reduced because of it. I had an employer tell me they couldn't give me more money because my travel expenses were being covered. I...didn't stay there.

    My wife shot a video of me pacing around the house in the bottom of the ninth. She showed it to me a couple months back, it sounded like i was speaking in tongues. I could not believe the Cubs got out of it, let alone a 1-2-3 inning. I knew then they were winning the game after that. I had closed out our tab in the top of the 8th expecting a mad rush and wanting to get out on the streets, not before asking if they sold champagne like a jinxing idiot that I am (I was also the 14 year old that started the '5 outs left' chant in my section right before Bartman). Said I would cover the bill and realized they were charging $9/Old Style tall boy, so that was a cool $350 or so. Between the 9th and the rain delay...that was a dark half hour. We found out our bar didn't have champagne, but I knew the bar owner so she said we could bring it in if we bought it and started passing the hat to go buy it. Then we stopped.

    I can only assume Mud Grant and Marty Brennaman will be right behind

    The theory is they may have the availability to trade Chatwood's full contract if the right combination of circumstances strike during ST. The Bryant stuff has never made any coherent sense to begin with, everyone in the org should be ashamed at how this winter has transpired, regardless of what restrictions they have. I just don’t see a lot of teams with 13M lying around for a 5th starter. I know ST hasn’t started yet, but you still have Cashner, Vargas, Millone, and McHugh out there for a hell of a lot less money
  15. SouthSideRyan
    If Kris Bryant is being shopped to get under the luxury tax and they have the availability to trade Chatwood’s full contract, then everyone in the organization should be fired
  16. SouthSideRyan
    I make fun of everyone else here for believing Chatwood had trade value so I’ll do it for Sharma as well. The idea of FA Chatwood getting 1/13M is laughable

    A scout told me SEC Football was equivalent to the XFL
  19. SouthSideRyan
    Correction: that’s Clayton Kershaw
  20. SouthSideRyan
    I’d hope my utility player wasn’t confined to playing half his games at the easiest defensive positions
  21. SouthSideRyan
    So Tom is the good one?
  22. SouthSideRyan
    Tonight, Rachel Phelps will be portrayed by Tom Ricketts
  23. SouthSideRyan
    Of course Arenado-Bryant makes less sense for the Rockies next year
  24. SouthSideRyan
    There is no way whatever his voice sounds like lives up to my expectations
