  1. He and Marshall are the only ones who have done anything. And Marmol is not exactly setting the world on fire anymore. Maybe you can help me with my dilemma. I'm hungry but the store wants to charge me $100 for a loaf of bread. Obviousy not starving to death is worth $100, so I should do it, right? My answer to that is Pat Cline.
  2. The list would contain the names Walrond Mathes Hubbard (Mike, not Trenidad)
  3. I vote that you smell like poop.
  4. A double A minor league prospect for a guy who has a solid model on how to win and win consistently is not a high price to pay. High ceiling guy or not. Again, not the point. The point is that if you don't have to lose the double A minor league prospect with a high ceiling, why would you choose to? Because of Lance Dickson.
  5. Because Boston's "guys" were Lucchino.
  6. Who'll take a huge payraise to come to a franchise who has laid out an impressive organizational plan with a chance to break a historic championship drought in a world class city? Probably nobody. Maybe Jim Bowden.
  7. You're right, he doesn't care about selling season tickets. Do you think the Cubs sold more season tickets by hiring Mike Quade than if they hired Ryne Sandberg?
  8. Sure, but at the end of the day, the Red Sox can still stay, okay Theo, sit home for a year. Can they? Would Theo's contract as GM allow him to not be the GM? Obviously you can't make him sell popcorn on the contract. What are the limitations on what you can assign him to do? I cannot comprehend how the Red Sox who: -Granted permission for the interview -Have leaked that they've promoted a new GM -Will owe an employee they don't want $6.5M -Have nothing to gain by keeping Theo have the leverage in this situation.
  9. But we have given some. We are hiring Epstein as a promotion from his current role with the Red Sox. Agreeing to give up ANYTHING is giving some. Lucchino is too busy stamping his feet and demanding an unreasonable return for something there is no precedent for.
  10. If it literally would allow Theo to pilfer whatever 5 or 6 guys he wants, sure. I think that'd be a great help to him. Otherwise, no way in hell. Yeah, bringing along important guys from the front office obviously changes the equation. But if the Red Sox are sticking to their guns with zero guys coming with, we shouldn't send a McNutt back. If we're getting zero guys with Theo, we shouldn't send them any players at all.
  11. I imagine the first 2 pages of the BTF thread comes from almost exclusively SOSH posters. If it wasn't so annoying to read, it'd be hilarious.
  12. You just want BearClaw to become a Red Sox fan.
  13. Yep, guys usually go from starting QB to out of the league.
  14. Somebody sounds cranky that Gameday won't be watching his team in Norman.
  15. 3 freshman for Kansas don't qualify, including Ben McLemore. Pity.
  16. Spin from Lucchino IMO.
  17. But Samardzija did become way better at baseball.
  18. what did mojo say? jackson, szczur and flaherty and a hearty handshake. I'd do that fake handshake, run your fingers through your hair thing. I'm not giving up Szczur.
  19. http://img820.imageshack.us/img820/5073/ffffffffffffffffff.png
  20. Posting question marks like that is classic muskat too. Muskat. That was funny. =D> Good stuff. Starting to roll with the punches. Alright! You know who's good at rolling with the punches?
  21. Patrick: Coleman had 1 INT in his career coming into today, had 3 today. Dungy: I guess he hasn't played against Rex Grossman enough.
  22. Ron Zook is the dumbest man alive.
