    I know it sounds bad, but as a little more urban of a school, I think there are more fears about kids having guns than at most schools, so there is a little more of an edge to things. Will that stop things? No, but the GOP gun cult has made sure that all mass murders are well armed while doing it.

    We have armed police officers at our HS and MS. They are available for the Elems as needed. I am OK with that. They are uniformed and easily recognizable.
  3. I just gave you a list of other significantly below slot picks and you ignored them. It's just you literally making up a standard to get mad about that you won't/can't explain, and then claiming to be right. They also didn't sign all of their picks for 10k. Round 6 was 30k, round 8 was 20k as was 10.

    This is literal insanity.

    I think their teachers getting slaughtered by police officers wouldn't really help the situation, but maybe that is just me.
  6. It's so bad we can't even catch a freaking throw from the outfield. This team just has nothing.
  7. Tony is a genius. He'd tell you himself but it is naptime.
  8. And neither is calling Chicago a "hellhole".
  9. Billionaires are all over the place in Chicago, investing in it every day. I think namecalling is boring and unproductive as well, which is why I responding to the characterization of Chicago as a hellhole. Any reason you didn't respond to that? Nevermind, I know.
  10. Some interesting clips.
  11. "Ha-ha, that's pretty funny guys, ok now seriously, what am I doing today. No really, stop joking around."
  12. Again, 100% wrong. The #1 pick in the 2021 draft was signed for 2 million underslot. In the first round alone teams picked lower rated players to sign to lesser bonuses at the 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th, 13th, 18th, 19th, 20th, 23rd, 24th, 26th, 27th, 28th, and 29th picks. Also I know from the top of my head that the Mets punted on a ton of picks trying to make room for Rocker. I mean if you don't believe me, pull up this list of draft picks and signings. In the 10th round alone there are FOUR players who signed for slot. 4! In the 10th round the Sox signed their pick for 20k. In that same round 6 other teams signed their picks for less money, including the Dodgers, Padres, Twins, Cubs, Braves, Giants. Take a team like Tampa who signed a player for just 3k underslot in round 10. Their 9th round pick was signed for $17,600, or about 133k underslot. Texas had a 2nd round pick signed for $830k, or $1.1 million underslot. Houston had a 5th round pick signed for $47.5k or 300k+ underslot. So yes, I don't know what your made up definition of "punt" is, but the Sox are exhibiting the same behavior as the other teams who are the most successful in the MLB draft.
