  1. and if you think he's that valuable in a mentorship role then why the hell not just hire him as a coach and let someone else play in these spots so whatever the hell he makes isn't cap money edit - well yeah, that^
  2. bozo the clown lmao this guy's got some great material
  3. Fortunately Don Baylor is not.
  4. trade willy, sign grandal, find someone to play a good CF who isn't an abysmal hitter and gets on base a little bit. oh and get some bullpen guys from somewhere. obviously will be getting something good in return for willy... maybe that cf. horsefeathers if i know. making up trades that'll never happen isn't really fun.
  5. i think i'm on the twins this year
  6. Kwiatkoski deserved a game ball on Sunday. He looked like ass in preseason, so that was a pleasant surprise. I've always liked him. Thought he played well the last few years. It was just this preseason that had me concerned. It was a perfect matchup for him with a team that reliant on their running back. I don't want him out there actually having to cover people, though.
  7. That doesn't really change the fact that he probably feels slighted/rejected and wants to show Gruden what a moron he is. https://sports.yahoo.com/bears-khalil-mack-on-facing-raiders-ive-been-looking-forward-to-it-164737875.html
  8. Ross makes a lot of sense to me. He's tight with the FO so he'll probably follow their lead on roster decisions/player usage and he has both the respect and admiration of most of this roster. He's also not afraid to be an horsefeathers to them if it's called for. If magic leadership stuff exists in any form, he probably has it. And he's cheap.
  9. Uhoh...That doesn't sound good at all. Kinda worse than if he had, in fact, pulled a Lance Briggs. Hope everything is OK.
  10. Theo will be speaking today at 3 IIRC
  11. I'd be pretty surprised if it isn't Ross. Definitely won't be horsefeathering Girardi.
  12. I usually only see the late season home games as a big advantage vs the Vikings. Don't really see how it matters that much in late September (beyond regular old HFA).
  13. Didn't he drop a ton of weight to play TE and then got cut? Yes
  14. MNF has gotten horsefeathers games ever since the games moved to ESPN and SNF got top priority for games. I miss when the Monday night game was the marquee game more than not And MNF pays double what SNF pays for the rights There's a whole lot of other stuff besides just the MNF games that ESPN is getting in that package, FWIW.
  15. i honestly can't believe he's still employed. i remember thinking that 12 years ago when he was talking about rodrigo ramirez and adolfo soriano in the cubs/dbacks playoff series.
  16. did someone forget to tell me it's opposite day
  17. [tweet] [/tweet]
  18. The pipiest pipe dream that ever piped. Leave my gf's nickname for me out of this please
  19. i'd more than happily take late career alex smith...just hopefully doesn't take him nearly as long to get there. and without the insane leg injury.
  20. it was meant to mean that Eli was hugely disappointing his first 3 years in the fact that he was just...mediocre. Now, Eli won a couple of Super Bowls-some would even say despite the fact his team was quarterbacked by Eli Manning. He does have that above Mitchell. But in the end, my only real point is if you think Eli is somehow an improvement over Trubisky at this stage of Mannings career, you're nuts. Or stupid. Or perhaps, full of gumbers pee balls. Eli was actually the one example I was able to find when I went looking for recent QBs who got significantly better after year 3 (this was right after week 1). Everyone else was basically who they were by year 3, if not year 2. alex smith
