Dmitri Young can take his Fruit By The Foot and retire.

Brandon Jennings going all retro with the hair.

I don't know if Leno was an official lead in show. The news is in between them.

The man is in an elite club. 400 HR 300 SB Willie Mays and Barry Bonds are the only other two.

With Cust signing for that, Ankiel should be even cheaper.

You're killin' me, smalls!

If I was a Bears WR, I'd get the entire recieving corp together and have everyone chip in enough to cover the $750,000. 750k is like $1,000 for normal people.

Conan is much better with a younger audience than Leno is, perhaps he wasn't a solid enough 11:30pm fit. In my opinion though, this move is more to placate Leno than to deny O'Brien's ability. NBC finally realized what we all did months ago - a daily 10pm TV variety show is a stupid idea.

I don't really have one, but I don't mind watching a Cubs game on occasion.

QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Jan 7, 2010 -> 04:52 PM) Why? What's so special about Rick Ankiel? The man has a very good lefty power bat and a golden arm.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jan 7, 2010 -> 03:32 PM) I hope we take a look into Rick Ankiel, even if he is a Boras client. ^^^^^^^ If he'd take 4 mil, I'd put him in RF tomorrow and DH Q.

Recording Vanilla Rain, Steve?

All these "clever" women. Posting their bra colors on their Facebook statuses.

The Big Shakespearean Lebowski

Branyan would be interesting if he was semi-reasonable financially. 3 years - $4 mil base plus options to bring it up to $8 mil might be what he wants. Thome does about the same stats for less, though.

QUOTE (klaus kinski @ Jan 7, 2010 -> 01:24 PM) Not touching the pitching, a strong point, if we want something-sign them and add-not subtract from a pretty good roster ^^^^^ If you sign Chapman, he's going to the minors like Viciedo did. The 2010 offseason would be when you decide which SP(s) to trade.

New Ok Go album sounds like Robin Thicke. Not a good thing.

In '93, the entire month of January was below 0 here.

Cubs factor.

We've been shoveling lake effect since before the new year. Enjoy my pain, Chicagoland.

Chapman's going to start the year in AA probably. How's the plan look now?

The Score's Herb Lawrence just posted an NBA rumor involving Chris Bosh being sent to the Bulls for Hinrich, Thomas and a 1st rounder. Doesn't make sense to me. Bosh is worth more than that.

Awful? How so?

Bump. Baines got jobbed.
