  1. I’m old and out of touch. I only know who three of those people are, and I’m clearly meant to be impressed by that lineup. i may or may not have googled the one on the right i did that when the pic first came out like 2 weeks ago or whatever too
  2. I’m old and out of touch. I only know who three of those people are, and I’m clearly meant to be impressed by that lineup. I dunno, I think they meant to capture a large mix of different types of sports fans. I don't think you are necessarily out of touch if you can't recognize a surfer, skateboarder or motocross rider. yup. i wouldn't have recognized anybody but javy, harden, and kobe if i were 20 years younger either.
  3. was mooney one of the reporters back in the spring suggesting the cubs wouldn't dong as much (who we admittedly made fun of) because of chili's history with the red sox?
  4. for some reason this made me think of phil plantier and then i wondered if he was briefly a cub or if i was just confusing him with phil nevin or something (he wasn't and i think i was)
  5. i just saw this yesterday
  6. damn, and here i was giving rmack credit for doing something decently well
  7. have there been any updates as far as lauri's recovery? initial report was 6-8 weeks (like two weeks ago), right?
  8. remember when derrick rose looked like an mvp candidate in preseason in 2013
  9. There's a page 67?
  10. please come back, launch angle dong wizard [tweet] [/tweet]
  11. Bears hold on at #2 overall in DVOA through the bye https://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/teameff
  12. one of said seasons was 4.8 war in 111 games and the other two were 3.0 in 147 games, and 3.5 in 159 games (where Fangraphs HATED his defense). He had his one 9.3 fWAR season, and hasn't been above 5 in any other season. He's a fun player who I would like to have, but he hasn't lived up to the hype. Any debate of Harper vs. Trout ended long ago He has a career 140 wRC+ and .382 wOBA. His defensive numbers were flukishly bad this year.

  14. This is more the attitude I expected there to be around here about this guy (and deservedly so)
  15. i wonder if he and KB will drive down together
  16. i honestly have no recollection of starting this thread i think it was a bunch of merged threads and i have no idea if i even used this title
  17. Both of the sideline throws to Cohen were excellent. He dropped it right into his hands and he didn't even need to break stride. Yeah, I had actually forgotten there were two of them lol
  18. as long as we no longer employ chili davis that is
  19. [tweet] [/tweet]
  20. imagine if trout hadn't signed that stupid ass extension
  21. At the risk of making this like LeBron Summer 2010 part 2 [tweet] [/tweet]
  22. Looks like Mathis(1), Grandal(2), and Maldonado(8). Austin Hedges(10), could probably be had in trade without it being painful. Also. I find it funny that Alex Avila is on the positive side of the ledger, after being horrific last year. I think this stuff is generally directionally correct, but IMO the magnitude is probably ~half of what the numbers say. i'd rather have grandal as our primary catcher than contreras
  23. He was throwing guys open and making anticipatory throws (i.e. people say Burton's defender fell down, which he did, but he had already made the decision and throw before that happened). The Robinson touchdown was an absolute dime. The throw to Cohen down the sideline was also an absolute dime. Yes, they were schemed open, which is the same thing going on with any good offense. Tampa's defense sucks and he's not going to have a monster game every week, but teams play against the worst defenses in the league every week and don't perform like that.

  25. i found most of it watchable until the absolutely insane last season...the lithgow season was prob my favorite. seasons 1 and 2 w/doakes were up there too.
