QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 7, 2014 -> 12:59 PM) It would open the world up some more. And hopefully get some better writing. The first reboot was good, the sequel was a mess How did Sony get the rights to Spiderman to begin with?

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Oct 7, 2014 -> 11:20 AM) Yes he does because people are stupid. His name is Josh McCown. It's not hard to say or write but people constantly said McGowan, McCowan, McNown, Cade McNown, Josh McNown, etc. Hey, when you have a qb as great as Cade McNown in your history, it's kind of hard to forget about him.

2014-2015 NBA thread
QUOTE (bmags @ Oct 7, 2014 -> 10:38 AM) Regardless of meaningful or not, there was a bunch of players most have never seen before so it was a pretty fun game. Oh I agree. To me the preseason means absolutely nothing but doesn't mean it's not fun to watch.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Oct 7, 2014 -> 10:42 AM) This isn't really true. He's paid the going rate. He's paid what he's worth. Go look around the league and check out other QB contracts for guys comparable to Jay. That was basically my thought as well.

QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 7, 2014 -> 10:00 AM) You know the preseason rules for fans. If a player sucks, panic. If they play good, who cares? It's preseason! Ha definitely true of the casual observers. I don't ever take anything from the preseason for anybody, just fun to talk about nothing though.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Oct 7, 2014 -> 08:48 AM) If we go for these same types of players without a higher risk/reward payoff we'll be stuck at .500 for 2-3 years. Wait...you're saying that Masterson doesn't have a higher potential reward than Paulino?

2014 Fantasy Football Thread
QUOTE (Y2HH @ Oct 7, 2014 -> 08:47 AM) I wish my pay league was ending right now, my team has entered that magic phase of being so red hot it's unbeatable...and FF players know that usually only lasts a few weeks... :/ Q: Should I start Edelman or Forsett this week? I don't trust Reed enough to replace Walker at this point, and Walker has been performing more often than not. This is my lineup: QB Jay Cutler RB DeMarco Murray RB Andre Ellington WR Demaryius Thomas WR Keenan Allen TE Delanie Walker Flex Julien Edelman K Nick Novak Def Philadelphia Eagles Bench: Justin Forsett Jordan Reed Dwayne Bowe Lance Dunbar Stepfan Taylor Carolina Panthers Ya dude, you should have just retired after this week.

If Jo beats Pierce up in a preseason game then we automatically win the Championship.

QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 6, 2014 -> 04:10 PM) What are "Things Rowand44 would never do or say". Cuz he's drinky. "Would never do" implies that I actually could do it if I put my mind to it, I'm not that smart. Thanks for the compliment though!

QUOTE (bmags @ Oct 6, 2014 -> 04:20 PM) I'm really excited to see Mirotic. So crazy to finally get to see this guy after so many years of anticipation. I hope he plays Deng minutes (if he's good tonight, otherwise I'll immediately call him a bust and take ownership to task for not using the asset at its higher value!) I like this post. I'm with you, if Mirotic sucks tonight he's a bust.

KW "We're a lot closer than the record indicates"
QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 6, 2014 -> 02:15 PM) I am pretty leery of Masterson after this past year. His stuff really dropped off QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 6, 2014 -> 02:58 PM) Yeah. Masterson's usually had alternating good years throughout his career though. But the drop in velocity is very discouraging. I will say that I should have researched a bit more on Masterson, as for whatever reason I just figured he had a crappy year but didn't even think his arm could be in trouble. QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Oct 6, 2014 -> 03:32 PM) It's like a read option. You go in looking for one thing (contention), but if it isn't working out, you have an easy backup plan. This model of "contending while rebuilding" makes a ton of sense for a lot of reasons. Chiefly, you're trying to dodge service time AND wean guys into a full season of innings anyway. It doesn't hurt to throw some innings at a veteran and see what you have, particularly when you can then trade him to give your system even more prospects. I do like this analogy.
