Machado signs with Padres 10/300
I was on a Southwest flight from Midway to Philly with Andre Iguodala before, you are correct.

Machado signs with Padres 10/300
And then potentially million's in maintenance, hangar fees, gasoline, insurance etc. Jets aren't just a $1m plane and a $200k pilot, it could be $4M a year to own.

Machado signs with Padres 10/300
I ran into Ken Griffey Jr. at Orlando Airport last year and he was waiting in TSA line at the United Terminal. Not every rich person flies private jets every time they travel, most wouldn't be rich any longer.

Harper to Phillies 13yr/330 mil
I was talking about interest in the team.

Harper to Phillies 13yr/330 mil
And wait until the next time two massive 26 year old free agents are available? No thanks, get me one of these guys and turn this thing around. There is minimal interest in this team as is with the fanbase and it needs a kick.

Update: Machado met with Sox
Agree with the above from a negotiating standpoint but there is something to be said about going first when you are jamming long meetings into a small time frame like this. The clients are usually refreshed and ready get to understand the product but often times the meetings become dull and repetitive towards the end.

I think she’s from Cuba, she’s probably not happy anywhere during the winter

Sox trade for Yonder Alonso; Alex Call to CLE
Ok so if the Sox need to throw in a few million to move him, so what? That is a pimple on their rear. We are not the most enticing place to play and Am surprised people can’t just respect the move to try to make the end goal happen.

Sox trade for Yonder Alonso; Alex Call to CLE
I don’t understand why people cannot understand the simple concept of your first sentence. This isn’t a terrible move and he can be traded at any point if Machado doesn’t sign. Jesus.

Sox trade for Yonder Alonso; Alex Call to CLE
There’s clearly some cabin fever here. For the people saying this move is awful...uhhhh, you could just trade him if Machado signs elsewhere. This is not a big deal whatsoever.

Nightengale: JR has talked to Boras, no offer yet submitted for harper (Harper Thread *updates in first post*)
These guys live a different life than everybody else. If I work at a fast food joint and the underachiever next to me is making $2 more, I'm going to push for more. If I'm in sales and the underachiever next to me continues not to hit his/her numbers and is making $20K more, I'm going to push for more. I get it but It's all the same, these guys can set up generations of family members.

I have no sources but I just assumed that he said something to Boylen or GarPax and they told him to F off. What a joke this team is.

2018-2019 Official NBA thread
There is no questioning the signings haven't been ideal to fit Hoiberg's system but this shouldn't be surprising whatsoever. The Bulls show no effort on defense, Stacey King wants to explode calling these games. If you do not have the talent to score and keep up with these elite offenses, you better slow the game down and play a little D, they have not shown they could do this under Hoiberg.

Active shooter at / near Mercy Hospital(?)
Why the white hate on this post? It's mostly the liberal's own media pushing that agenda. Let's be real, if you shoot somebody no matter what color you are, you have some type of mental illness and/or are just an all around POS. Anybody with a brain knows that We do not need CNN to tell us you are mentally ill or a great student.

Agreed but then I remember that this is not the Bears of Old. This is a system that randoms have the opportunity to come in and play solid to great.
