  1. He's spent almost 600 million during his time in charge. The Cubs still have the longest professional sports streak with no championship. "We could be a lot worse off"? Is Hendry to blame for all 100 years? The amount of time since the last WS championship has little to do w/ Hendry's performance as GM. The only years that effect his grade as a GM are the ones when he actually held the job! I guess I didn't make my point clear. He's spent 600 million and they still don't have a World Series title. If you really want to go with money spent, how much have the cubs made since he has been GM? How much has their profit grown since he has been GM? How much has the team increased in value since he has been GM? I'm not saying he's a messiah or anything but saying he's spent 600 million dollars isn't a good argument imo.
  2. http://assets.espn.go.com/photo/2008/0227/mlb_clemensreferal.pdf If you want a good laugh, read the whole thing. It's 18 pages of very high level amusement. Here are two of my favorite parts. #-o
  3. For some reason I thought DUI laws were more strict than that. Should be like a week in jail for the first offense imo.
  4. So there are almost twice the amount of games on tv that there are on the radio. That makes no sense to me.
  5. Gotta love it. Cause he's a baseball manager he gets no time in jail. What bs.
  6. This thread is disappointing. How has nobody said a bottle of Jack? COME ON PEOPLE!
  7. So why don't you just have everyone make a list of the top 10 or 20 and then compare instead of having people make a list and then complaining about the way that it is forming?
  8. For all the arguments stating that the level of competition has increased by so much, most people tend to forget the argument that these historic athletes would have access to newer methods of strength training, conditioning, and all these fancy new diets... not to mention that they'd have incentive to actually use them, considering the money being thrown around. At the same time the historical pitchers would not have been able to pitch every 2nd or 3rd day and be forced to pitch complete games and many of their stats would not be as inflated as they are.
  9. 1. Babe Ruth 2. Ted Williams 3. Barry Bonds 4. Honus Wagner 5. Willie Mays 6. Hank Aaron 7. Josh Gibson 8. Cy Young 9. Lou Gehrig 10. Joe DiMaggio 11. Rickey Henderson 12. Roger "The Rocket" Clemens 13. Alex Rodriguez
  10. The fact that half of your team didn't score any points probably didn't help either.
  11. Bout time Phillip Rivers did something. I think he's in the positive for the year now!!!!
  12. You're complaining about 10 points? Try having Larry Johnson.
  13. And then there were 2 undefeated teams... Wow I really need to change my sig.
  14. That's weird, it's still asking for waivers eventhough you changed it to not have them.
  15. We should have a shorter waiver time since the start of the season is tomorrow...
  16. Can we have fractional points please? There were a couple of games last year that were really close and might have gone one way or another with them. Also, I hate 50 and 20 yards per point. It makes TDs far too valuable imo. Plus, high scoring games are fun :) .
  17. no, because it feels like every thread is being looked over by a bunch of soccer moms.
  18. Are you serious? That's the saddest thing I have ever seen. This is why I don't post here anymore.
