  1. Eh...it's his first game in a new position. I'm willing to give him a little slack. It's not like we have some stud LB's pushing him, anyway. He was always going to fail
  2. 2nd team, on the other hand...
  3. Ahhh fake training camp drama...
  4. I have no problem with weed, it should be legal. Him smoking weed in violation of his contract is stupid and he's been suspended for other things as well. http://espn.go.com/new-york/nfl/story/_/id/6937440/new-york-jets-wide-receiver-santonio-holmes-gone-castoff-captain Wasn't his last suspension in 2010 though? I'm more concerned with his suckage starting in 2010 and carrying through to last season, although I'm sure some of that was due to the Jets' horrible offense as well.
  5. This article got me really excited. We've uncovered a market inefficiency. Of course other teams are going to start noticing it now and start taking the top college bats at the top of the draft, causing the elite pitchers and high school bats to fall. Hopefully right into our laps as we descend in the draft order the next few years. We should be able to get really good value while improving in the MLB standings. It's been discussed for a little while around these parts, since Theo starting talking about it. IMHO it's one of the best advantages we can point to right now, and since we have already begun to exploit it, there will be a period where other teams lag behind us. Definitely something solid we can point to for the intermediate future.
  6. So they don't sign anyone good this offseason? Weird. The problems with that are: 1) They could still sign someone. Screw the first-round pick. 2) Several of the players they might want to sign won't be pick-tied. 3) They probably weren't going to sign anyone anyway. 4) Worth it to not have to hear "we lost 90+ games, there's no point in trying next year, we're too far away!" Auto-ban on anyone who says something like this, starting in October.
  7. Interesting. Hopefully he's over his injury weed troubles. Yeah, no thanks. We don't need a bad apple in the locker room. Other than the league being stuck in the same time warp as the government, I don't see why weed should make a person a "bad apple" as long as it is isolated to his own time and not his professional work as a player.
  8. Darn MT/PT games. I really tried, guys. I guess I should be happy to have seen Rizzo's first homer live.
  9. Get a head start on forgetting him. He's done.
  10. Nice bat flip on a routine fly ball Welly you dope
  11. It's broken. I don't believe in the whole 4 week return talk when it's a broken bone. Heard that same kind of stuff with Rodgers too.
  12. Yeah but in all fairness to Coughlan, that ball was creamed.
  13. agreed completely Take it out of the manager's hands they don't know if it's worthy or not
  14. Castillo sucks at tagging and does a bat flip on obvious fly outs
  15. Devastation
  16. No doubt it wouldn't be caught. What the hell are they tagging up for?
