you're right who was the other weirdo that used ellipses way too much

You missed the final episode of Seinfeld for a girl?!?!?!? Or perhaps worse: the date consisted of watching the final episode of Seinfeld?!?!? A little bit of both. We met on a AOL chat room. Divorced and 30 something or other chat room. We were about 100 miles apart. We agreed to meet in a public place in case I was a psycho, so we met at Old Spaghetti Factory in Riverside, in the bar. I was there early, and Seinfeld was playing on the bar tv above the bar where we sat. I was not watching Seinfeld at the time. I was working 2 jobs at the time and the hours of prime time tv was actually my 4 hour window of sleepy time, generally. It did not bother my wife that I occasionally freaked out when helicopters were flying over announcing that a child was missing in the neighborhood, or that I would waltz into my nearest Blockbuster and cut up my BB card with scissors when they charged me for late movies that weren't late. I am psycho, but she married me anyway. lmaoooo this is an nsbb deep cut

OBP may as well have been rocket science in 1965. -
Most of that is in your head. Talking about prospects as trade bait when your young, talented ML roster is either looking or going to be looking for SP is just acknowledging the realities of what that might cost. Spinning my opinions into them being bad prospects is probably the root of all this, that has never been my position. Pretty sure you've literally said things along the lines of, "Hopefully, we can trick other teams into believing that too," when people have spoken highly of Almora and Contreras.

I have no idea if it's the best, but I want to see an outfield of Heyward/Almora/some other good defender at some point have an awesome game in a big outfield just breaking hearts. maybe we'll see fowler/almora/heyward in september though i think almora/fowler/heyward would be more likely

I'd just like to re-state how much I horsefeathering hate off days.

La Canfora is a joke. He rarely breaks accurate information and his frequent speculation is wrong. He's just spouting nonsense and it's also impossible to know how good the Bears will be. Fair enough, just concerns me when I read something that could be interpreted as chemistry issues because of what happened 2 years ago. But everything I've read about the Bears locker room seems to be positive. only think i could think of remotely close to that is the alshon situation.
-
Why is that strange? Isn't that exactly what other teams would want in return for the stuff the Cubs would want? "Repeatedly addressed with affordable 2 year deals" has resulted in a two winning seasons (including this one) so far this decade. As much as I think it would be neato and efficient to build a dynasty on the backs of the Jason Hammels, Lackeys, and Feldmans of the baseball world, it's probably not the most sustainable strategy in many ways. holy horsefeathering horsefeathers this is more kyle than anything kyle has ever said

turning the big 4-0 in a month eh? :bye:
-
yeah maybe dick butkus made someone go home in pain despite winning or something.

i would. trout has 41 career WAR before his 25th birthday. harper has 21 before his 24th. amazing, yes. and yet, not even close to trout. even after his breakout last year, harper is at 11.5 from 2015-today. trout is at 11.4 in that same span. mike trout is 7th since 1900 for WAR 25 and under, despite having at least 169 fewer games played than the next lowest (rogers hornsby) on that list. next next lowest have 263 more games played - mantle and arod. http://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=all&stats=bat&lg=all&qual=y&type=8&season=2016&month=0&season1=1900&ind=0&team=&rost=&age=14,25&filter=&players= trout is baseball mt rushmore good. harper has a lot of catching up to do to be that.

bryce is wrong
-
i trade russell. even if russell ends up the better player, it won't be THAT much better and bryant i already feel very certain about as a superstar. oh and i traded him for the 24 year old best player of this generation, so i wouldn't cry over it no matter what he became anyway
-
speaking of which did that guy here who bragged about hooking up with bree olsen ever report back he had gout, so there's that
-
spiegel and goff just had passan on and they were talking about this theoretical trade. spiegel said he wouldn't trade 4-5 of the cubs top minor leaguers (i believe contreras, torres, almora, underwood were the names mentioned) for trout. said he wouldn't void the farm system for one guy who could get hurt. he was appropriately laughed at by passan and goff, at least.
