    yes that was definitely put to rest after the first preseason game (where wade didn't even play)

    Yea a 3 year deal seems very reasonable to me. Wouldn't surprise me if he got more than 3 years, actually. Lilly's been awesome since 07. Lilly last 4 seasons (124 starts)- 3.70 ERA 120 ERA+ 1.13 WHIP 3.38 K/BB 7.7 K/9 And most of that came in Wrigley, which isn't the best park for the type of pitcher Lilly is

    from bill simmons twitter i know it's cool to hate on simmons, but when it comes to basketball he knows what he's talking about, and he actually does get good info. hopefully the bulls stand pat, because that's way too much to give up for melo imo

    how about the atrocious RTP call that gave the pckers a new set of downs and ventually a TD?

    did the bears try to give the packers the game too? a missed field goal, an interception in the endzone, a dropped touchdown on 4th down, etc. it's just funny to whine about your team handing the bearsthe game with pealties when THAT'S WHAT YOUR TEAM DOES. the packers led the nfl in penalties last season and are again this year. that is your team.

    it was an awful throw also. it was way behind him, and he threw it too hard for how open he was. bears just continue to throw away points. we sahould have 3 field goals and be up 16-10.

    supposedly he hasn't agreed to go to NJ yet, and that was premature. anyways, i wasn't sure if i wanted to trade noah for melo until now if he wants more than that and we could have melo for him and others, then ship his ass out. he's not worth more than that, and it's kind of annoying that he thinks so. im kind of getting the feeling that the bulls can have melo right now if they include noah, and maybe denver is waiting to see how the negotiations between the bulls and noah unfold. it's possible that garpax would like to extend noah, but will consider trading him for melo if extension talks don't progress soon.

    why are you completely ignoring the context? that was the initial comment. why should jason larue quit playing baseball even though he still was getting paid to play at the major league level? he may not be as good as others at that level, but it's still a pretty huge accomplishment to even be there. so yeah, saying that a player who is below average at the major league level should quit because he "sucks" doesn't really make sense. in the context relevant to this conversation, jason larue is a great baseball player.

    debatable

    not hyperbole at all. he may suck relative to the rest of MLB, but relative to all baseball players in the world, he's awesome. what percentage of players trying to make it to the majors actually ever make it? he not only made it, but was able to keep a job for several years

    anybody who is able to make a career out of playing baseball at the major league level is really good at baseball. like, elite at baseball.

    i actually believe him when he says he's done after this contract. he's been talking about that for a long time now.

    i thought "nugget" meant finding a mediocre or relatively little-known player and then having him blossom on your team. lilly career before signing with cubs- 4.60 ERA, 1.38 WHIP, 2.09 K/BB lilly since signing with the cubs- 3.67, 1.13 WHIP, 3.34 K/BB he did benefit from getting out of the AL east, but still. nobody expected him to become as good as he was during his time with the cubs. really, hendry should get more credit for lilly than KW gets for danks. lilly was a journeyman bacn of the rotation pitcher before the cubs and was already 30 when he signed here. john danks was a one-time top prospect and a well known name before the white sox traded for him. it shouldn't be a surprise that danks ended up being good. but lilly suddenly turning into cole hamels lite? that was highly unexpected.

    It's sad that the highlight of the Cubs season was putting the dagger into the Cards
  23. 17 Seconds
    ted lilly, aramis, derosa, barrett (offensively) also hahahaha @ "nuggets"
  24. 17 Seconds
    He's right. They obviously don't need a good Jeter in order to make the playoffs. When people talk about Jeter's season they aren't usually talking about how it's impacted the Yankees. They're just talking about how much he's sucked this year
