  1. butler is hilariously toxic. i'm glad we ended up getting a good return for him before he forced us to make a bad trade. and speaking of former bulls cheese butts
  2. i ask because harper is such a unique FA in terms of both talent and age, so i kind of read his tweet to be downplaying the amount he'll get. i know 5 wins is worth a ton, but i think calling him a 5 war player is kind of underselling him.
  3. i'm talking about the 5 war player part. is he saying the amount is something you'd expect a 5 win player to get? that's a very vague statement. he's saying he's getting the 10 year big AAV offers a 5 win player should be getting a 5 win player of his age, or a 5 win player at the more normal FA age? a player who is consistently worth 5 wins, or a player who has been worth 5 wins but will likely have seasons being worth much more? like, lorenzo cain was a 5 win player for a while, but he would never get 10 years. i just have no idea what kind of amount he means by just saying "5 war player".
  4. someone splain this tweet to me Levine reported earlier in the day the White Sox wouldn’t go to 10 years on Manny/Bryce (7 was allegedly as much as they’d go). Then he put this poorly worded tweet up to say Bryce does have 10 year offers at good AAV’s and shoehorned in the WS aren’t one of those teams using the info he previously reported. i'm talking about the 5 war player part. is he saying the amount is something you'd expect a 5 win player to get? that's a very vague statement.
  5. someone splain this tweet to me
  6. gleyber number 23? i just don't see the ceiling
  7. i bet they love board games, but don't play any of the "dirty" ones that make them say things like "ass" and horny
  8. I think now is a good time to trade kane, for like a million reasons
  9. i still can't believe sammy sofa was right along. he had rose pegged way before other bulls fans.
  10. my hopes are way back up now that some time has passed since LA made those moves (and because of all the kluber rumors)
  11. i read somewhere that it's on netflix first in 2019
  12. now i'm worried he's going to come back like d-rose
  13. The yankees are good almost every year, wtf are you talking about Reading is a skill. Every response back failed to address the points i made. I’ll consider it simply the source and let you dorks carry on your business playing fantasy strat o matic in your mothers basement. holy horsefeathers
  14. This is something I have found people with terrible, thoughtless, baseless, and immature opinions like to say. That last bit about spending being against the rules is not even an opinion and is factually incorrect. Same is true of the Harper/Yelich OBP takes Merry Christmas! No clue what you are talking about but that’s ok. If you feel the franchise that blows the most money wins, keep telling yourself that. You’d be wrong and miserable like the yankee fanbase that rarely wins anymore and is never happy although always blows the most money. Listening to wfan this morning and all their blowhards could talk about was adding harper or machado or both as a last piece of the puzzle. It never ends. It guarantees nothing and rarely results in anything but a bigger financial hole The yankees are good almost every year, wtf are you talking about
  15. oh my
  16. i wouldn't rather be a dodgers fan until they win a world series again. right now we've still got it better imo. they're basically in "none of this means anything until we actually win a championship" mode, no matter how good things go during the regular season. things are not all roses over there.
  17. peter berg and mark wahlberg are going to make a movie about this cubs offseason
  18. markkanen is gonna be awesome
  19. He was sober at deadspin awards. Got drunk after and sang karaoke. Passed out and choked on his own blood. They cut open his neck and he woke up a week later. jesus. but where did the blood come from to begin with? and why did they have to cut open his neck?
  20. somebody summarize
  21. deleted. what did the tweet say?
  22. horsefeathers the cubs
  23. i can't believe that there are still so many people who pretend like bigotry is simply a differing view
