  1. They actually got a player this time who has a non-zero value. Is it the 3.6 per or the 0.383 TS%
  2. Could Theo's fourteenth minor league reliever signing be interesting?
  3. Wtf kind of tweet is that. Why is this significant enough to post?
  4. The Bulls traded for more cash considerations lol.
  5. Maybe they're grooming him to try to run for governor in Illinois. He's now the finance chair for the Republican National Committee. And Illinois apparently loves its billionaire governors... Woof Is Todd himself even a billionaire? I know Joe is, but let's be honest, they probably put the dumbest son lowest on inheritance and told him they'd fund his government runs if he didn't touch the big boy businesses.
  6. Believing is the best because you can't ever be really wrong.
  7. The only concern I have with Callahan is he really hasn't stayed healthy. From a cap resource allocation standpoint, I'm definitely placing nickel back over S though. Replacing Callahan on the open market is a possibility in that regards. Bush looks ready to adequately start at S. One article I read about Pagano said he liked using a third safety in nickle packages. I wonder if that will play into any decisions (I'd assume he's still using a 3rd CB more, but the Bears aren't super deep at S if Amos goes) CB is really the only major position Pace hasn't drafted (Hall was kinda tweenerish, but moved to S full time pretty early). Wouldn't mind seeing that change this year. Though they do have Tolliver and a handful of PS guys, I'm not sure if any of those are long term development pieces.
  8. I'm not saying all the owners got together and hatched a plan to restrict money to players. They didn't have to; they filtered the membership in their special club so that everyone was on the same page to begin with. That may not be the strictest definition of collusion, but I'm okay with the term being used.
  9. also, what the hell is crane talking about? i still see plenty of people printing/using paper tickets at the airport...and if the line ever slows down, it's usually for my damn mobile ticket that isn't scanning right. He's obviously using the special rich people lines that the proletariat doesn't have access to.
  10. Mr Bezos, will you sign my trading card? Either that or: "Mr Bezos, "
  11. "Blasted" by xrays.
  12. Why the horsefeathers wasn’t the CT Scan done sooner? Huh, I thought the CT scan was usually the simpler test usually ordered first...
  13. 1. Cody Parkey.* *maybe That reminds me of the year that Desmond Clark "made" the Pro Bowl in a year where the Bears got absolutely no production from TEs. Even he was shocked. And then they realized that it was actually Dallas Clark that made it and the NFL rescinded the invite. LOL, I don't remember that at all.
  14. Its been like this for a while. It's been long overdue to kill it. Have an all pro team and some type of Awards show.
  15. Weird. I can't remember if cash considerations were capped trade by trade or within a year. I thought it was a max amount for a year, but maybe it's dead by deal. Second cash consideration trade we got from Houston in a month.
  16. Why Fridge and Forte? i guess the fridge because he played with the london monarchs in nfl europe and forte because he had that sweet run against the bucs in the last london game? idk. weird either way. The Bears played a preseason game at Wembley in 1986 and the Fridge scored a TD (can't find a full box, but the below article) https://www.si.com/vault/1986/08/11/113797/go-downpitch-and-buttonhook-smartly-mate-from-punkers-to-peers-all-albion-was-agog-as-the-bears-met-the-cowboys-in-londons-jam-packed-wembley-stadium Yea, and Forte went 25-145 with a TD in a win over the Bucs, also at Wembley: https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/201110230tam.htm
  17. Why Fridge and Forte? Players who have played in international games before? Maybe each had big games?
  18. I get your point, but my counterpoint is Bloody Mary's and midday naps.
  19. First to 8 within the first 15 minutes. Sudden death after.
  20. 0.657 ops? You knew that when you signed it Well yea, since it was an agreement outside of arb, right? Hypothetically if that had let it go all the way to arb, they could still cut bait. But if they didn't they can't. Answered my question. I missed the agreement last week.
  21. If I recall, if they settled via arbitration process its not guaranteed, whereas as agreement outside of arbitration is guaranteed. It’s only non-guaranteed if you cut him for baseball reasons 0.657 ops?
  22. he got a deal like last week yeah but were they in agreement about it If I recall, if they settled via arbitration process its not guaranteed, whereas as agreement outside of arbitration is guaranteed.
  23. Did the window to dump him close and no one told me? Sort of. They could have dumped him right after the suspension. They could have just not offered him a new contract. They didn't do either of those things. They could still trade him if they can find a taker. The organization has been saying the right things lately but talk is cheap. They decided to give him the chance at redemption and have hinted that he better take it seriously. What happens if he doesn't will be a real test of what the Cubs organization believes. Did they agree to arbitration with him already?
  24. Did the window to dump him close and no one told me?
