I know you were drunk but I said their best defender, not the league's
-
James Franklin is just terrible.

The Bulls haven't beaten a team as good as last year's Hawks team since 1998. You're awful. Please go away. http://hellogiggles.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/07/alanis-morissette-ironic-4490-1232076325-31.jpg

Oregon is only a 9 point favorite @USC last I saw. I don't get it.

You have no [expletive] clue how blind bids work do you -
I can't see why not having their best backcourt defender would be a hindrance when facing LBJ and Wade

Gleeman was wrong. Olney reported the Cubs were the 2nd highest bidder. http://chicago.sbnation.com/chicago-cubs/2012/7/4/3137514/cubs-finished-second-yu-darvish-posting-fee

Are we going to do that thing again where everyone makes hilarious jokes about the Celtics all year like the NBA regular season matters and then they go farther than the Bulls in the playoffs? Because, I mean, it was funny last year, but I feel like it's pretty well-tread ground.

Funk and King are technically difficult to listen to.

I likey.

That's all I've been saying

Why do the first 3-4 seasons not count in this evaluation?
-
Umm, no. Let's not do that. Yes, lets. You win as many games as you can, and put yourself in position to win as much as possible. You can't control the rest. Except for when you lose as many games as you can. Worked for the Rays. And all it took was 10 years of 90+ losses!

Of course it's possible that the Reds don't stop trying for 3 years after their old guys get old. Well awesome. We can worry about beating an 80 win Reds team too then. They're not a major market team, nor do they have tons of help coming. The Reds might have a higher payroll than us next season.

Who is the last 26-27 year old to hit FA?
-
If we continue our trend of leaving half our best players in Iowa, that might actually be a good thing? In spring training Dang, never mind. That is a worst-case scenario, then. Isn't half of our "core" in A ball?

Does the McDonald's purchase come out of baseball ops? What if we're able to buy a few of the rooftop properties? What if some of the parking lots around the stadium become available?

Both paying off debt and renovating Wrigley will be more than recouped when the team is sold. A renovated Wrigley is worth more to Ricketts than a bulldozed Wrigely. It should not affect the big league payroll. The debt to be paid off will allow the sale price down the road to be pure profit. You don't get to strip the actual team on the field of any value so you can make pure profit on the franchise valuation (while improving it with a newly renovated park)and not expect people to be pissed off about it.

I think they make a lot more than they say they do.

There's no reason we can't be in Red Sox territory with a new TV contract. There's not much reason we can't be now.
