Sucks they probably need to beat Purdue to have a realistic shot. Of course Purdue needs to win tonight

I'm confused as to why a lesbian is the authority on this.
-
good question. i honestly have not watched a ton of bulls lately but i did see a chunk of that game he dropped 38 points in. Is he the kind of guy that can thrive as a 3rd option or is he only effective if he is getting fed the ball as the primary option? it seems like GarPax sees him as a piece otherwise the niko/portis situation might have gone differently plus we didn't hear any trade chatter involving him around the deadline.

Honestly, I feel like his issues were all mental but i could be wrong.

Bears 2018 Offseason: Matt Nagy Hired as Head Coach
UMFan83 replied to Outshined_One's topic in Other Sports
I mean Cutler definitely has a huge place in my heart, but a good 30% of that is basically the cult of Smokin Jay/don't care Jay. I thought about throwing a "among non-HOF player" clause in there cuz of Urlacher. Brown is a good one too though. when i was a kid, it was raymont harris, the ultra back. i have no idea why, because he wasn't all that good. I drew a picture of him as a kid in some art class we had, and then came across that picture a few years ago and thought 'who the horsefeathers is raymont harris'. Forgot all about him -

That's a shame about Willie Young. If I am remembering correctly, he was still effective and a good teammate when he was on the field. Guess he's just too oft injured to be trusted. -
Yeah Delaney had offers to hold the tourney next week at Barclays and Prudential in Newark but he wanted the allure of playing at MSG. I have no problem having the tournament in DC or NY or wherever but having the tourney a week early caused logistical issues during conference play and like you said takes us out of the spotlight of being the lead in to the selection show. Though maybe that’s for the better with how horsefeathers most of the Big Ten has been this year. Delany most certainly did not have offers to hold the tournament at Barclays, because they're hosting the ACC tournament and are contracted to host the A-10 for at least the next 3 years. If he wanted NYC, this was his only play. Going to Prudential is probably the only thing that would've been dumber than what he did. Of course, Delany's entire NYC gambit is a complete joke, and the fact that the B1G tournament is ever anywhere other than Chicago and Indy is dumb. From what I understand the Barclays offer was made before the ACC was announced and the offer was also not necessarily locked in for 2018

He probably just said a generic white person's name and by stroke of luck was correct.

Always excited though the week off between the Big Ten season and the tourney is going to suck. I like watching the other conference tourneys though
-
How about you give them all to the Cubs at minimum salary? I'm sure we could use the depth.
-
Good stuff because every other tanking team lost or is losing tonight Earlier in the year I couldn’t get behind rooting for the team to lose individual games even though I wanted them to get a high pick. Not having that problem anymore
-
Gonna be tough, NJ and Charlotte are tough tanking competition. Luckily, GarPax stated that LaVine won't be playing B2Bs so he won't play tomorrow.

that and there are like 4 presales in the days leading up to ticket sales. Also, about 10 years ago they used to let tickets go on sales at Wrigley 2 hours before they were available online, so it was more of an event. I still remember in 2005 getting up at like 5am to hear the winning wristband number broadcast on WGN radio, then rushing to the park because my friend was within 1000 of the winning number, then getting Red Sox tickets when that was the hyped first time ever interleague matchup.

I'd say DeBrincat but the shelf life of young talent in Chicago tends to be short.
-
I guess Dusty is partially absolved. Whoever thought it was a good idea to have a 9 year old pitching in an MLB playoff game should get some of the blame. I hope he wasn't forced to throw any breaking balls.

Cubs Twitter is mad we didn’t sign him
-
The Twins could still sign one of those guys, right? Their rotation is still Berrios, Odorizzi, Gibson, injured Santana and what???? Didn’t they just sign Anibal Sanchez?

Contract the Rays
-
Wait a second why did the Rays DFA a 3 win player due to make $6m next year?

He had a disappointing year in 2016 (probably Bortles related) then tore his ACL. I feel like Landy is more of a sure bet but Robinson maybe a higher ceiling? -
one of the best values and one of my favorite places to sit = front of upper deck (400) infield The best value ticket in sports. For some reason the market has never figured out how awesome those seats are. I have an annual trip with friends where we sit in the bleachers per tradition, but any other game I go to I try to sit in the 400s. I could have sworn in reason years theyve disproportionately raised prices on those seats. It is hilarious though that people who don't know better buy seats 20 rows up in the 200 level and spend the game with the overhang blocking off part of the OF all because they assume lower deck > upper deck

When I think of Valbuena, the first thing that still comes to my mind is that breakout series he had against the Cubs in 2009 as a member of the Indians (in a series the Cubs swept despite him)
