Friedman and Hahn have a pretty good working relationship. Guessing dodgers needed Team to take salary to work out, called one Sox

Tearing up from happiness at a trade

(I’ve never heard of any of these guys )

Weird tweet to get out. Like is it done or being worked on?

Will lol if it’s some swapping of AAA pitchers

Hell Of a job getting this so fast ! Very intrigued

QUOTE (oldsox @ Jan 4, 2018 -> 04:24 PM) Still forfeit the draft pick, IIRC. There was another a couple years ago, can't remember who. but in the new CBA it needs to be above $50 million in total value.

Phil Rogers bein Phil.

If Moustakas signed for anything below $50 million, the only think you could complain about is less time for Yolmer to show off, and I just don't find that to be crippling.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jan 4, 2018 -> 12:03 PM) Realistically if he was signing dirt cheap I'm fairly confident we could flip him and easily get returning value of the 3rd round pick we give up. edit: I'm 100% confident tbh QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Jan 4, 2018 -> 12:20 PM) Sox would forfeit their 2nd pick. Which will be around 45. Not happening. I don't think this is right. It's only a 2nd round pick if the team that signs is over the luxury tax threshold. Under it is their 3rd pick.

And just to pile on again, he succeeded pat shurmur as OC of a pretty good rams offense and they then became the worst offense in the league. That was a horrendous run.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jan 4, 2018 -> 11:45 AM) That is different then him being all in on Goff (which I thought you were implying). I agree that they tried to work with him. The Rams were sold on McVay because of just how electric he was. Supposedly he blew everyone away and his film sessions, etc, were just super impressive with what he said he brought. It wans't that they were convinced 100% he could turn Goff into a star...it was that they thought he was going to be the guy who could ultimately turn the right QB into a star (turns out Goff was that guy). I don't think we are disagreeing, but Nagy being familiar with Trubisky will allow him to show off exactly what he would do to take him to next level. Others can do that by looking at film too, but everyone is busy with playoffs, so it's a huge help for him. For good or bad, "how will you handle trubisky" will be the biggest question each of these guys need to answer.

nah

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jan 4, 2018 -> 11:28 AM) Living out on the west coast, I don't believe McVay and Goff hit it off. In fact, there were major open questions about Goff being the starter throughout the preseason. No one knew whether Goff was a McVay guy or not. Goff was so bad last year that I think even the Rams front office was pretty uncertain regarding Goff's long-term potential. At least that is what most of the reports said leading up to the regular season. A lot of people were expecting Mannion to be the starter at some point in the season. McVay went on Rich Eisens show and talked about how he spent time in the interview process breaking down film with Goff and showing how he could help. That was essentially the reason he was hired. https://247sports.com/nfl/los-angeles-rams/...w-with-74900039

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jan 4, 2018 -> 11:05 AM) Any of these names who don't think Trubisky is a future franchise QB have zero chance of being hired. So put him at the top of the list. Obviously all will say they like Trubisky. But McVay had opportunity due to the redskins not being in the playoffs to hang around with Goff and hit it off. That Nagy has a prior relationship that has been ongoing is going to be very helpful for him. Would be very surprised if Trubisky isn't brought into round 2s just like Goff was.

Saw this on twitter when walking and lost it now. I hate Kaplan, but he tweeted out that the Chiefs were in love with Trubisky pre-draft, especially Nagy. And Nagy has kept in touch with Trubs. That could end up being big.

Worth noting that Gardner could try pushing for an actual law that solves this.

I keep thinking back to the debates when Trump would make hay on how none of the people on his campaign would ever talk about him the way Hillary's team spoke about her in the podesta leaks.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 4, 2018 -> 09:05 AM) I think Sessions going after legal weed is going to end very badly for him. Those states are making a lot of money off of it, and the police arent concerning themselves with minor possession and wasting their time On the other hand, Cory Gardner is an absolute idiot to think Sessions wouldn't be a problem for his state.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jan 3, 2018 -> 05:00 PM) I'm having Ventra issues myself right now. Very irritating to deal with They are huge jerks. On the flip side, nordstroms customer service is incredible. I have a bad problem with not checking the default shipping address when it's just coming to me, and they solve things over the phone and without making you repeat yourself with all of your information right away.

The only real redundancy on the bulls is the 4. I don't think it would be any issue having dunn and young. I find bulls use of mirotic, portis and lauri fine and they are much more redundant.

QUOTE (Quin @ Jan 4, 2018 -> 09:13 AM) You'll be pleased with this SI mock: http://amp.si.com/nba/2018/01/02/nba-mock-...impression=true Bulls get Young at #7. Only question is - what do you do with Dunn in that scenario? Move to a 3-guard set with Dunn-Young-LaVine? Also, god. Doncic to Cavs in that scenario. Talk about beautiful basketball movement with him and Kyrie. Got some bad news for you about Kyrie.

Missouri won it's first road conference game since January 28, 2014. Kim Anderson hadn't won a single road conference game. Feels good.

It's tough but here's my personal order: Young Young Young Young Young Young Young
