QUOTE (Lillian @ Feb 23, 2018 -> 08:09 AM) To be more precise; I would prefer the left handed bat at $12 Million, for 5 years, to the Super Star right handed hitter, at $35 Million, for 10 years. That preference stems from the fact that we already have several potential Super Stars, and all but one of them, hit right handed. If you take the money out of the equation, of course I would prefer Machado, to Moustakas. Honestly this is sillier than you wanting Grady Sizemore batting cleanup for what seemed like 3 straight years that he didn’t play ball for anyone. Forgoing a superstar player simply because he hits right handed is more than mind boggling

I don’t know what his deal is, but Greg Gabriel has gotten into twitter beef with Mike Florio, Chris B Brown, and now Aaron Leming over the last few weeks. As well as a bunch of followers

QUOTE (dasox24 @ Feb 21, 2018 -> 01:04 PM) If he does fall to the Bears, I'd be all about it. The interior o-line would be nasty (if Long can stay on the field, and that now has turned into a big "if" based on the past couple years). One thing I do want to say is that personally, I would have kept Sitton until after the draft. Here's the problem I have: we basically have to sign a quality interior lineman now, and that puts us in a bind if we want to draft Quenton Nelson. Yeah, best player available, blah blah blah. Well, who are you going to sit? The starting-caliber veteran who you just gave money to, or the rookie? Either way, you're in a bad spot. Injuries happen, sure. But it's really not ideal from a roster-building standpoint to sign a good veteran and then have to make him a backup, which is what you would have to do because you don't draft Nelson at #8 just to ride the bench.... And if you don't sign a quality OG in free agency, and then Nelson is gone before #8, or someone else you have rated higher falls to #8, then you're downgrading at OG. Not the way you draw it up. With keeping Sitton for now, you ride it out. You ignore OG in free agency (except maybe a backup type). If Nelson falls and you take him (or another quality OG is there in the 2nd round), then great. See ya Sitton. People will say "oh, but it hurts the player." Bulls***. This is a business. You protect yourself. And frankly, Sitton is still pretty darn good. He'd have no trouble finding a job, though he may not make as much as he would if he could have partaken in Free Agency in March. I think they had to pick up or decline his option in the next two weeks. Couldn’t wait to decide until after the draft

"Maybe we'll consider regulating bump stocks, not banning, ehhh actually no, we'll just keep them as is." I believe it fell back on "we dont have definitive proof that he used bump stocks, so lets ignore it"

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Feb 20, 2018 -> 09:06 AM) LOL so true... Can't give those teachers a raise, but how about a gun? f***, they make teachers buy their own supplies now. Now you want to suggest that they all be trained, certified, and have a gun and everything necessary with a gun(holster, ammo, etc?) yea, go ahead and raise your hand if you think they will fund this if it ever came to pass.

QUOTE (WBWSF @ Feb 13, 2018 -> 06:42 PM) What makes you think this team is going to get a big TV deal? They can't even get a radio deal now. They had a radio deal, it isn’t their fault that Cumulus claimed bankruptcy one month before the season started

QUOTE (Lip Man 1 @ Feb 13, 2018 -> 07:36 PM) This is total and complete nonsense. That's the polite way of putting it. JR WILL NOT SELL, he's said that repeatedly, publicly. He is keeping this team until he is dead then his family will put it up for sale, period. End of discussion. Tax purposes basically prohibit him from selling the club while he is alive. JR is a tax expert, he knows the rules and the loopholes. Why is that so hard for you to understand, honest question...not trying to be snarky. I don't care much for JR myself, but he's bought in on the rebuild and the money WILL BE THERE starting next year. No guarantees they get anybody to sign with them but the offers will be out on the table and they will be aggressive. If you don’t want to listen, you don’t want to know

QUOTE (iamshack @ Feb 13, 2018 -> 08:55 AM) Oh wow! I wasn’t aware of the dog kennel option! Last time I heard of something like that I think was the Honda Element. I’ll say I am pretty pleased with my Q7, with the exception of the brakes. About a month ago I had to have my front pads and rotors replaced already after 20k miles. I had prepaid for this, so it didn’t cost me anything (then), but it pisses me off. Am I going to end up replacing the damn rotors every 20k miles? May as well add like another $5-6k to the true cost of owning the thing. I think you need a dog fifth wheel so that wouldnt apply to you

QUOTE (Tony @ Feb 13, 2018 -> 08:34 AM) Ok, so no actual substance in terms of how you would make the team better. I figured that was a waste of time, but wanted to give you a shot. Should have known better. spend all the money on a bullpen because you all know a rebuilding team needs an expensive bullpen

QUOTE (WBWSF @ Feb 12, 2018 -> 06:34 PM) 1) They are rebuilding as cheaply as possible. 2) They are rebuilding as cheaply as possible. 3) They are rebuilding as cheaply as possible. 1) that’s the point 2) that’s the point 3) that’s the point You are so hilariously wrong about this rebuild QUOTE (Jack Parkman @ Feb 12, 2018 -> 09:32 PM) He's going to say that JR was too cheap to spend enough to make them competitive. Hahn was hamstrung by ownership. It's no use arguing. My complaint in 2016 was they wouldn't rebuild when they clearly needed to. You can't spend your way out of mediocrity anymore so the ownership bashers don't know how to respond. Exactly. Every post is “JR isn’t spending on this rebuild and will never spend and has always said his teams are more profitable with low payrolls” with nothing to back it up but his whining about JR
