  1. Bryan LaHair for Yu Darvish. Seriously though, I brought this up when Scales went to Japan, but would there ever be a scenerio in which there could be player trades with Japan or other nations rather than just cash. It would be an interesting scenerio, as there are a lot of Bryan LaHairs out there who could fare better in Japan than they ever would in the US. Obviously, they wouldn't want to send over their top young players, but some fringe guys who would be interested in coming over. A player exchange program if you will. So not a star like Bryan LaHair would be, but a fringe guy.
  2. Argh...I took 7 upsets (and way too many road teams) according to my Yahoo confidence pool. Pittsburgh Oakland Arizona Tampa Bay New York Jets New Orleans Green Bay Baltimore Detroit Indianapolis San Francisco Denver New England Houston Atlanta St. Louis
  3. With any luck, nobody will ever mention him again.
  4. Figured I was toast heading into tonight, wasn't even watching. Now 7 points from Matt Prater gets me a win. And that'll be 7. Thank you Wes Welker. (Nobody cares about my fantasy team)
  5. It's cool, I missed out on picking up Janikowski as my kicker because I wasted a week on Louis [expletive] Murphy.
  6. They can if they're punting on 3rd down.
  7. Figured I was toast heading into tonight, wasn't even watching. Now 7 points from Matt Prater gets me a win.
  8. Might want to check that math.
  9. It's not like we'd get an early commitment from Parker, and they're the clear 1 and 2 in the state. I understand we can't afford to wait around for kids and running the risk of getting nothing, but it sure would be nice to have an extra one in the bank should somebody else blow up over the next year.
  10. This is why you don't waste time with Orris. most expect another one to open up for 2013. I trust it will, but I'd still like to have 2(+1) for '13.
  11. This is why you don't waste time with Orris.
  12. That's a weird leap.
  13. Ugh, Orris to Illinois
  14. May he suffer a catastrpohic injury this offseason.
  15. He was too busy tying young maidens to train tracks. I really want Kenney to grow a handlebar mustache now.
  16. Typical Ricketts only in this to bleed as much money as possible out of Wrigley.
  17. Imagine you're a GM candidate. Which conversation makes you more likely to accept the job? "Our current farm director is under contract, but the terms are flexible so you can keep him, fire him, or reassign him as you see fit." "We have no farm director. You'll be starting at square one there." How about this one? "You want me to be GM of a team that hasn't won in 100+ years and turn this franchise into a WS winner. You want a new direction and yet, you've just recently signed 1-2 executives to long-term contracts. Don't you think(because of my experience and contacts) that I know already who the best minor league and farm people are for this franchise? Are you going to let me run the team as I see it or fill it full of your friends, Tom?" "I'm going to let you run the team as you see fit." "Oh."
  18. I'd stop considering him "connected"
  19. It sure seems like aTm needs to feel special.
  20. I'm pissed that nickname never took off for Lee.
  21. That's unfortunate. Maybe Gruden will die by then.
  22. And get off my lawn!
