  1. QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Sep 14, 2017 -> 09:49 AM) I'm old so I don't watch ESPN or MTV. I watch AMC, History and Discovery. I am not quite old enough to watch Fox News or CNN unless there is a breaking something. Maybe my head is a little in the sand but I like it there and have enough to worry about getting through the day and trying to find Charlie Tilson. You may want to watch 48 Hours mystery for that one
  2. QUOTE (Wanne @ Sep 13, 2017 -> 09:34 PM) and we don't have to see Cody Asche's face at the top of this page!!!!!!!!!! You love it.
  3. QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Sep 13, 2017 -> 05:33 PM) Need to send the entire bullpen to the DL and grab some guys off the street to stop the bleeding. It's going to suck if we end up not even in the top 3 with 95+ losses. This entire bullpen IS guys off the street
  4. QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Sep 13, 2017 -> 09:06 PM) I think if they are floating around the .500 mark you will see a boost in attendance. I think you see a boost when we start seeing guys like Eloy and Kopech make their debuts
  5. QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Sep 13, 2017 -> 07:28 PM) Rabbit didn't say to fire her. She should be fired though for hosting the worst hour of a show in tv history. The six is absolutely abhorrent and doing terrible ratings. It's howdoyoudofellowkids come to real life. It seemed like he was making the statement as if it was from the White House, not rabbit
  6. Doom and wolfenstein 2 coming to the Switch. Did not see that coming.
  7. QUOTE (TheTruth05 @ Sep 13, 2017 -> 02:32 PM) Yoan has been barreling up the ball a bit more this series.Nice to see Apparently Abreu's bats work for him
  8. Jerrell Freeman tore his pectoral muscle and is unlikely to return this season. Kwiatkowski, time to play
  9. Fantastic Contracts and Where to Sign them
  10. A friend of mine lives in Florida and the beach by his house is completely destroyed. Here is before and after pics, the storm sucked all the sand off the beach and wrecked the dunes
  11. QUOTE (scs787 @ Sep 12, 2017 -> 08:29 PM) I missed most of the game......Did the Bears play Howard and Cohen together in a 2 back set at all? What about Cohen split out wide as a receiver? Dude has really good hands and looks like he could be something....Bears need play makers out there. They did a wildcat with Cohen as "QB" and Howard scored. I think that was the only time they shared the backfield
  12. QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Sep 12, 2017 -> 01:16 PM) When did the Lakers tank? They traded Vlade for Kobe. They never tanked or had any top pick. They signed Shaq with free agent money, traded for Kobe, and then traded for Pau (for Marc Gasol). When did Miami tank? They drafted Wade @ 5 (and did not do any form of tanking to get there). They already had Zo on the roster (and obviously he had some health issues). Spurs were a very good team who lost its best player, David Robinson (who statistically was worth 20 wins on his own) and then had Vinny Del Negro and Avery Johnson (who were both quality players the year before) royally suck. Even then they had the 3rd worst record in the league at the time and won the lottery. They are the closest you can call to "tanking" of the teams on the list. The Warriors were just a bad team. They weren't tanking. Tanking is intentionally being bad / trying to be the worse in the leauge. The warriors were just a bad team for a long time and even then, it wasn't with super high picks that they excelled, it was with good picks, but nothing legendary. They drafted well and I think everyone on this board would say the Bulls failed at "tanking" if they ended up with a 7th and 11th overall pick in this year / next year's draft (which is what the Warriors did with Curry / Klay). Good teams get better because they drafted well...not because they just crazily tanked. The exception to this is the Cavs, who maybe tanked, but they also royally sucked and obviously won LBJ. The lakers tanked last year. The Spurs say they didnt tank but they ran crap lineups out and sat Chuck persons pretty much all season after Robinson and Elliott went down. The Warriors did tank, even as bad as they were prior to that season. They benched Lee and NateRob for scrubs, they traded Monte Ellis mid season. https://www.cheatsheet.com/stocks/5-nba-tea...html/?a=viewall Tanking isnt an art, there is luck to it because your pick isnt guaranteed by your record(hello Derrick Rose), but acting like it has to be a prolonged tank is not correct. Some teams fold up late in the season and "protect" their better players in order to give themselves a chance at a higher pick.
  13. Yea let's make sure this guy doesn't go back to the A's
  14. QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Sep 12, 2017 -> 12:33 PM) The Miami Heat, La Lakers, Boston Celtics, and San Antonio Spurs have made the vast majority of NBA championships post the Jordan era and none of those teams really built themselves by a prolonged tanking strategy. Golden State is the new dominant team and their best players were drafted 7th overall (Steph), 11th overall (Klay), 35th overall (Draymond) and Durant (Free Agency). I already know everyone is going to say, well the NBA doesn't work that way anymore, but all of those teams won a ton of championships without truly "tanking". Wade / Duncan were the two highest picks drafted by any of those teams, but neither were part of a prolonged tank. Duncan was a pure luck of a Spurs team that had its best player dealing with a back injury (David Robinson) and Wade was drafted 5th overall and very quickly the Heat were back out of the lottery (they were only in the lottery the year before they got Wade, when they drafted Caron Butler @ 10 overall). Prolonged or not, those teams tanked
  15. In short, Jenks wants all the cameras
  16. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 12, 2017 -> 09:55 AM) Last night was about as perfect of a night to win as you can get. What was strange was watching KC play just awful and stupid defense. I couldnt believe moose was as bad as he was.
  17. Let's release the hounds on KC
  18. QUOTE (Pants Rowland @ Sep 11, 2017 -> 10:56 PM) What'd he say about me?! he said you are certainly not the womens wrestling champion of the world
  19. QUOTE (bmags @ Sep 12, 2017 -> 08:51 AM) This stretch of Jose's is just incredible. Doesn't seem like you can get him out. and it isnt like he is squeaking in gork shot hits here and there. It seems like he is destroying everything
  20. Extremely strange piece of trivia considering this season
  21. Booooooooooo
  22. Davidson has been as bad as Rons baseball assessments since he came off the DL
  23. QUOTE (ron883 @ Sep 11, 2017 -> 09:57 PM) We all know what the stats would look like. Jose doesn't hit when the Sox are trying to contend. Always hits like crap when the Sox are still in it. Sure Ron
  24. QUOTE (ron883 @ Sep 11, 2017 -> 09:53 PM) Jose might be the best hitter in the league when nothing is on the line. He's just killing it. Wish I could see splits for batting when his team is above 500 vs below 500. Tried but couldn't find it. gonna keep throwing that team dependent strawman out there to feel good about your bad threads, huh
  25. Abreu is extremely DFA-worthy tonite
