  1. Obviously counting stats are helped by WC, Division eras. Still cool to see. Also, pretty impressive for Sosa.
  2. They should go with an NFL style system. Just net all gains against all losses and then any losses that exceed gains are awarded comp based on the level of the player. That way you dont get comp merely by shuffling around good players.
  3. Aside from the obvious benefits to backloading that we've discussed here a ton (and you'd backload the extensions on the young guys too), we'd be on new TV money by the end of a 4 year deal signed this year. TT may have a point regarding uncertainty, but if there is enough certainty, timing is a basic tax concept that should absolutely be a consideration. TV deal, irrelevant.
  4. Whats our possible Luxury Tax outlook? Wouldn't that be one reason not backload a deal? Must be nearing oue last years of not paying it, right?
  5. Hey sounds like Kyle Long isn't on team Trump at least. Its time to start supporting our millenial sports stars guys.
  6. I was gonna make a light hearted joke that we all just need to love and support each other more, like lending a helping hand to a neighbor moving out of the country, but I stopped myself. Eta - stopped myself on Facebook, not here, obviously.
  7. Who cares about individual awards! All that matters... Oh wait. Wooo Cubs are WS Champs, bring on the horsefeathering awards!
  8. Ive never done coke but know people who have. From what I understand coke can sober you up from the alcohol, focus you and end your drunken symptoms. Coke can sober you up. Should be a trump campaign slogan. Totally depends on what you were drunk on to begin with. If it was the good stuff, you shouldnt have been showing any signs of drunkeness to begin with.
  9. Well looks like they will offer the QO, but the perception last year was that hurt his offers. Either he improved his standing enough that the QO will be meaningless to his suitors, or there is some interest in bringing him back.
  10. Eventually they'll start taking the WS trophy around to different places where fans will get a chance for a pic right? Should we track that here, or new thread?
  11. I have zero memory of frosty.
  12. So don't expect Fowler's QO to be extended.
  13. I'd love one. If you still have any available I'll shoot you a PM tomorrow and get your paypal/venmo info. Hey all, I only ended up with one extra, but if I end up with any others I'll work my way down first come first serve. 5 deep right now.
  14. I picked up some extra Tribunes and looks like not all my family needs them. If anyone is interested in the paper, and doesnt want to deal with the Trib site, I'd be willing to mail it for the cost of shipping.
  15. Lol classic Fred post.
  16. this is a top-3 post all-time. Holy horsefeathers. This hat would be too small for me. I don't wear hats. Whoa. I thought I had a big head (7 3/4)
  17. Any post with that creepy old timey video with the Theo and Hendry faces on it.
  18. I went to Dicks the night of the NLCS. Didn't do the same for WS. My first pass through on MLBShop I ended up at $539 worth of stuff and my wife said I had to cut it down and ask for the rest for Xmas. I got it down to $137, but may still purge a little more in considerarion of the WS gear I already got at Dicks after the NLCS.
  19. Hammel is in the rotation for now. Hell, Montgomery would have an innings limit anyway at this point. Use the heck out of first half Hammel and put Monty in a long-relief role. Then trade Hammel at the deadline for the best AA/AAA pitching prospect you can get and slide Monty into the rotation for the second half / playoffs. I really don't think we should expect a mid-season Hammel trade. Definitely not for prospects.
  20. Trying to get to work is an absolute [expletive].
  21. My lovely wife, bless her heart, did not get upset with me after I purchased $183 worth of t-shirts this morning. Just making up for lost time. The good news is, there IS a shirt that has Kyle Schwarber listed on the team. The bad news is, it's red with blue accent. I've always thought that is too confusing given a Cub/Card rivalry - you'd stick out at Wrigley completely the wrong way. If anyone finds a shirt with Kyle's name on it, pls lmk what page on the MLB WS gear site it's on. Thx! ^ (I can't believe I'm horsefeathering posting about this!!!) Theres a blue Nike one on MLB shop that does show Schwarber, but the same style at Dicks does not.... also a blue Majestic brand on MLB shop has him.
  22. My lovely wife, bless her heart, did not get upset with me after I purchased $183 worth of t-shirts this morning. Just making up for lost time. I added everything I wanted to my cart and ended up at $539, so i have a little purging to do, lol, but also a great head start on my christmas list!
  23. Not sure they do this, but a framed boxscore card from game 7 would be awesome.
  24. I think I need to decide between going crazy with hats and shirts or dropping for my first authentic jersey with a WS patch.
