There are a lot of horsefeathering issues at hand.
-
That is not the claim. The claim is that you are nit picking over verbage to identify the coin payment recipient (which is precisely what your "lazer focus" comment was decrying). David was pointing out that Brian's story from a while ago is the same story that was recently posted to instagram. One of your comments made it seem like this happened more than once. Now, maybe it did happen more than once, but we have not even a rumor of that happening. I think there was just confusion mixed with defensiveness, which is never a good recipe.

Those seem like the actions of a contritious, stand up young man. ...why is he on this team, again? Man, horsefeathers Theo.

Week 15: Green Bay @ Bears Sunday at noon on Fox
JudasIscariotTheBird replied to jersey cubs fan's topic in Other Sports
I'm a Packer fan. Rodgers wouldn't be the team's problem if he were turning 40, even if he does have this no-INT, 6 sacks a game fetish thing going on. The Packers are just run by dipshits. They spent Rodgers' best years refusing to bring in any talent in FA, and then when they DO decide to dip into the coffers, they blow it all on the corpse of Jimmy Graham, who was clearly toast two years ago, and a bunch of old fart defensive players, most of whom, not stunningly, got hurt. They don't have much to speak of in terms of awesome young talent. The Packers will be good for 6-8 wins so long as Rodgers is playing, but the rest of the Packers blow big time. (I can't tell if Devante is actually good or not. MAYBE he's ok, too.) -

...why would you think the Packers would be better? -
I made an Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade reference in that thread that I'm still pretty proud of.
-
And we'll get confirmation in March?
-
Nah, but this is as good a time as any to confess that I was the one who got mad at IMB for some dumb reason and tried to send him GOT spoilers at his work e-mail. I think he blamed Sully. i'm no got watcher, so i could be wrong or i could be missing a joke, but didn't' that cause a huge blow up between them? lmao He got pretty mad at me for making the "Sublime or Rockapella" poll, too, which was a spinoff from the Music thread, which also had some politics mixed in there. It wasn't all GOT related, but yeah, that was a thing.

He who smelt it, dealt it.

Yes and yes. ...but if you ask Boras, the answer is no and no.

ah so you're white & straight I'm surprised you didn't mention "privileged" too That was implied. I already know your opinion but I'll ask it anyways, do you think white straight guys don't enjoy privileges? I mean, can you name a person who owns a baseball team that isn't a straight white guy? I can only think of one, and he spends more than PTR, and he supports a few progressive things, so to Boombox's other absurd point where he asks what more we could hope for out of an owner...

Telling someone to grow up? Sammys advice was dead on and your response proved it. You sound a little triggered. But while we are back on the subject of telling people to compartmentalize their opinions of how the world works as if there is some kind of virtue in that...I mean, constantly harping on politics all the time can obviously get tiring, but pretending that walling off how certain things in our lives effect others is foolish at the least, and possibly dangerous. I especially disliked the part of Boombox's screed where he ends it with "can't do anything about it anyways." Well, at the very least, you can bitch to people on the internet about it, but be it politics or sport fandom, there are multiple obvious things to be done about it. If some guy on the internet finds it convenient to his lifestyle it to walk around with blinders about its different aspects, it doesn't follow that I should do the same, or that I should even respect it. Boombox is happy and fancies himself noble because he chooses to ignore negatives aspects of the world at his convenience. How nice.
-
No, you need to grow up. Also, it's fun to have a team that buys talented players. It's not fun to have them choose profit over said talented players. How do you know they are choosing profit over talented players?
-
Whenever I read "You all need to" and it isn't followed by "brush your teeth regularly," I check out, because I definitely don't need to do what a guy from the internet says.

This has Michael Shoemaker written all over it.
-
Fixed that for you. Yeah, I assume he is going to fill Drew Smyly's 2018 role.

Let's be real, Rodgers has a gorgeous face. But, apart from Devonte and Jones hes playing with a bunch of has-beens and nobodies, and his O-Line is sporting 3 back ups. If the Packers score more than 13 I'd be stunned. -
General Other Sports Chit-Chat Thread
JudasIscariotTheBird replied to Pushfrog98's topic in Other Sports
If it makes you feel any better, when I was living in Maryland I was voted MVP of my soccer team by my teammates, but the coach wasn't happy about that because his kid was on the team. At the end of the year, my trohpy said "Goalie" on it, even though I only played one half of a game at goal, and the coach's kid's trophy said "Top Goal Scorer." Completely hillarious petty stuff. -
...so, elite?

General Baseball Chit-Chat Thread
JudasIscariotTheBird replied to David's topic in General Baseball Talk
Brutal. I was always irrationally pumped about Valbuena. -
I think it is more likely than not that Baez has another 5 WAR season, but I do think the over under on any particular season should probably be just over 3.
-
"Aggressive"? Would he say "very aggressive"?

Maybe they said we'l give you $40,000,000 per year while you wait for the young core to gel. Well yeah, that’s kinda my point. If they think the young core is a major selling point they aren’t getting him. They’re going to have to probably give him the most money (likely significantly more than anyone else). If Bryant is as much of a plus for the Cubs' chances of getting Harper as we assume he is, then the Sox playing in the same metro has to count for something, right?
