they can command all they want, nobody is giving him that.

Link? http://gatewayredbirds.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=48147 half of them are trying to pretend it's no big deal, the other half are raging about him leaving for more money. pretty fun thread.

it doesn't make sense for the cubs
-
There's a number of people who are kinda silly about honor and legacy and all that, but it's hard for them to get worked up over 10/250 when all the talk had been anchored near 200 million thus far. well i can understand not being upset that they didn't give him 250 million to stay, but the way they're attempting to act as if it's no big deal is pretty funny. a lot of "i'm not too upset" comments and stuff like that.

the amount of denial going on over at grb is pretty amazing
-
wait, does anybody remember that creepy little cards fan who used to post vids of himself raging on youtube a few years ago? the kid who went on a rant about aaron miles signing with the cubs. i completely forgot about that kid, and now i really want to see if he's still around.

Horrible seems too far, but it certainly isn't good. A tick below what ARod got, and he plays a less taxing position without DH competition. he also plays a way less valuable position and arod's contract is pretty [expletive] brutal
-
i was just thinking the same thing. that teams always feels super boring and uninteresting to me.
-
Horrible seems too far, but it certainly isn't good. i guess that's true, considering they got the best hitter in baseball. still though, 250+ for a guy over 30 is terrifying. oh well, i'm sure berkman will continue to OPS 1.000 for the cardinals
-
awesome and i know some will disagree, but to me that's a horrible contract.
-
tweet that is bad news for the cubs = speculation tweet that is good news for the cubs = reliable information
-
the details about the new accusers' claims in the main espn article seemed a little unnecessary.
-
pretty sure he was referring to the way the phillies shocked everyone by basically coming out of nowhere to sign lee.
-
am i the only one who wants prince over pujols? a ryan howard type contract for fielder would be excellent. 10 years and over 200 million for pujols scares the [expletive] out of me.
-
that's a lot of money for a 33 year old pitcher who has averaged 111 strikeouts over the last 6 seasons (all 200+ IP)

remember that one time hendry couldn't/wouldn't offer wood arbitration -
shut up erik

well for starters, pujols won't be universally hated in st louis if he leaves. it's not even a comparable situation at all. lebron was the hometown (kinda) kid who was supposed to be a savior to a sports city that never wins in any sport and is always miserable. then he not only left them before bringing them a title, but he completely punked them out in the process. not to mention that him leaving was essentially turning them from an elite team into an awful team. pujols isn't going to turn the cardinals into the pirates by leaving. what pujols means to st louis will never touch what lebron meant to cleveland when he was there.
-
I don't know. Would you want to stay in St. Louis if you could help it? Even if someone paid you a crapload of money? Considering he has a restaurant there/bunch of money invested there/has talked about how he loves St. Louis, I would think pulling a fast one on the Cardinals probably would not go over very well for his legacy there. Probably be as big of a blow to St. Louis as Lebron was to Cleveland. not even close

haha roy williams is the worst. that's a routine catch if you're willing to take the hit. -
something isn't right

being outshot 19-3 in the 3rd period. holy [expletive]

nice toe drag for the shorty

we got a point
