So I'm getting a bunch of ads on here for really cheap Hawks sweaters. Is there a new uniform supplier or is it related to them being a bunch of sucky sucks? Also, which should I bite on? Kane kinda rapey Toews kinda sucky. Crawford maybe dead?. Just go blank sweater?

Upper deck box infield is a good view and a good way to make sure their first time isn't blocked by a pole. Either of the sections all the way down the line, (200-202 or 240-242) are a good way to ensure you don't get a pole, and you're fairly close to the field, but you are limiting your best view of the entire field. Still you can sometimes score a decent value on those tickets compared to infield sections.

people i know who interact with him say he's a bag. matt spiegel has alluded to it too in conversations on the score. that said, it's one thing for athletes to be a jerk to grown ass men who pester them...he's a well liked teammate and he's great with kids. that's all that actually matters. I know a pastor who worked at Lurie's as chaplain and had interactions with him and seems to adores him.

Zero. I was pretty young though. The first Cubs acquisition I remember being excited over was Delino Deshields in 2001 (lol wtf- I think i just thought it was a cool name). Anyways Nomo went on to average almost 3 war/yr over the next 5 years, so lol cobs. first acquisition i was excited about was todd zeile lol. my brother told me he was good. man i was SUPER excited about those randy johnson rumors in 98. and mike piazza. what a horsefeathers GM lynch was. that era could've been crazy differently. a few months later we trade noel and garland anyway for trash. i think there were also sheffield rumors in 96 for a bit. and bobby bonilla was rumored all the time. oh and idk if anyone is here from the old AOL boards in the 90s, but i remember falling for some insane barry bonds rumor from a message board insider that involved chad meyers, robin jennings, orie, kieschnick or some other trash like that...it had to be 96 or 97 Yea now that you mention it, I do remember excitement about Piazza rumors. I don't remember any Randy Johnson rumors. I mean 98 is obviously really got me hooked as a fan (I was 10). before that it was mostly me watching because that's what my grandpa watched in the summer (or listened to on the radio). But I think for whatever reason I never got too into acquisitions and rumors and the like. I just rooted for whoever was a Cub. Trade deadline 2001 (McGriff too) is what probably got me paying attention to the acquisition side of things.

Not at all.

Bears v Ravens HOF game. Middle Linebacker HOF showdown.

Failure to execute on the field and in the front office. Soooooo the Cardinals problem is that they suck? Okay, got it. Everything you post is instantly hilarious since you made that your sig.

Lavine with a godawful shot. Butler with a godawful foul. Three FTs and the tank L. :?

Lavine going with a ton of iso here. Bulls trying to kill the tank streak against one of the best teams in the league.

I need this explained to me.

That said I'm definitely using this on my sister and BIL

Not cool jersey. Not cool.

Here's a small reason for optimism for tankers. The Bulls are 28th in the league based on expected W/L. Unlike the tank standings there is actually a decent variance between, say 22 (Dal) and 28. Perhaps the Bulls have another tank gear left, and they've done more than the rest of the bottom 10 to deteriorate, even if Rolo and Holiday stuck around... they are very likely to see reduced minutes at least.

The underappreciated human element of GMing FTW. Also, let's remember McDaniels had to create an excel spreadsheet to try and learn not to be a dick. Needs to go add some additional tabs

I think over the remainder of the season, attributing even one win to those guys is a pretty optimistic assement of their value. Random statistical noise is gonna play a bigger part in W-L. They will probably be better assets a year from now, particularly if the market ends up being less of a buyers market. It came up a little bit with Niko, as well, but I'll maintain maximizing your asset returns is way more important than a few draft slots. Obviously there's some inherent risk of never realizing any return on your asset if they just see out their contract, but that's part of what needs to be weighed, especially if your shutting the door on some other avenue, in this case FA.

When you sell second roundersfor cash what's the difference?

Noah Vonleh and cash to Bulls. Draft rights of some obscure Serbian guy to Portland. Portland gets under the tax. Bulls get cash, and I guess an extended look at a 22 year old 10per RFA to be.

Bulls trade Jameer Nelson for Willie Reed, and a swap of 2022 2nd round picks. Luckily they are waiving Reed (wouldn't want that scum on the roster)

Eh I doubt there's some secret info about Lucks health that made McDaniels change his mind. If anything in means something about Bellichicks future. Meaning you think he's setting himself up to take over in New England? Would you want to be the first coach up after ~20 years of Brady/Belichick dominance (assuming Brady goes when Belichick goes)? Well the recent rumors from a few weeks ago was a Kraft/Bellichick power struggle. Since Brady just threw for like a bajillion yards, it doesn't seem like his retirement is anytime soon. McDaniels might feel like taking a bet on the NE job opening in 2019 with another year or two of Brady.

I wonder if that's an indicator of Luck's health (or lack of)? Eh I doubt there's some secret info about Lucks health that made McDaniels change his mind. If anything in means something about Bellichicks future.

Mcdaniels backs out of Colts job. Staying in NE. Yikes.

Well the Bears ended up having a pretty big impact on SB 52. Philly took the Foles TD catch from the Bears week 17 game last year.

Yea, caught twice in two seasons. Next failed test is a two year suspension.

He would make more than that. 3.5 is just the savings of they cut him. With the injuries and PEDs, I find him the easiest cut of that group. Also, fyi on Sitton, they have to make the option within the first few days of the league year. Its an option and becomes guaranteed once taken. So they won't be able to play the FA market the same way as some of the other guys who have large unguaranteed portions.
