2023-24 NFL Season Thread
Lol now his report is fact? How about all the people reporting the past week about Brady coming out of retirement to play for Miami. Those were high profile names too. I guess that’s fact too huh?

Buddy, I never said he wasn’t good. Also, you realize Justin Fields isn’t a good QB right? Can you delusional Bears fans stop pretending like DJ Moore is moving from trash to treasure.

Yeah it is, and I doubt it happened.

They swapped 1 for 9, that’s not gaining a first round pick. and even if you believe Moore is worth a first round pick, you can do a lot more with the actual draft capital than a player who has already been extended out of his rookie deal.

They should have got more 1st round picks, not a late second this year and another 2nd in 2025. How you only acquire one 1st round pick when trading the 1st overall pick makes little sense to m

1,100 yards receiving is not all that impressive anymore when talking about WRs

Look, it’s a good deal for the Bears when you consider they don’t need to draft a QB. I personally think it was a little light though.

Guys, if DJ Moore had 1st/2nd round value he would have been traded at the deadline with mccaffrey

Yep, this seems light to me for the #1 pick

I cant imagine a scenario where the Texans give up the 12th overall pick to move from 2 to 1. While I think they could pass on QB this year and wait for next years loaded class, the fan base wont allow it so I think if they have a couple of these guys closely ranked they will just take whoever is there at 2. I think the likeliest trade partner is Indy if they do trade. Or the Texans too I guess, but I don't see it having #12 involved.

3/2/2023 3/1 Sox vs Colorado, 2:10PM CT, no tv
Like I said, it wouldn’t happen and if the Sox chose to do that I would be upset about it. However. Sheets was playing out of position too so you can’t use that excuse there AND the point was that platoon would be similar or better than Vaughn not what’s best for roster construction.

It would never happen but I don't think a Burger/Sheets 1B platoon out producing Vaughn is really that outlandish, absurd, or desperate to be honest with you. One of these is Vaughn last year, the other is Sheets/Burger 510 ABs - 28 2B - 17 HR - 76 RBI 545 ABs - 28 2B - 23 HR - 79 RBI

Of course, we will see what happens when the security blanket of playing out of position is no longer there.

You mean you don't like un-athletic 1B with "meh" power and no real stand out tools?

2023 Spring Training Thread
I don’t see this ever working. It’s not like football where you still may lose a challenge, you’ll know for sure if it was a strike or ball and it seems like that would be challenged constantly all game and end up slowing the game down. I would rather they just keep human umps making judgement calls, but doesn’t look like that’s going to happen.

Odds that this is the opening day lineup (position wise, obviously in a different order) ??

The Sox Will Win the AL Central in 2023
I agree with this. Yes, the regular season is more fun when in contention and yes its great to watch playoff games that include the Sox. It is, however, soul crushing to spend an entire 162 game season putting in the time and commitment to watching probably 140 of these games if not more only to see them get unceremoniously dumped in the first round. I understand what hes trying to say.

2023 Video Game Thread
Yeah I guess if I can just craft what I want to use that's fine, but I do miss the old school way of going into a dungeon and getting a new weapon to use to do new things through the rest of the game. Same with armor/tunics. I guess its cool I can just go buy it if I want it but doing a puzzle or dungeon to get the item was always fun.

Hopefully they ditch the breakable weapon system. It sucked using a weapon you really liked and then the game is just like "Sorry, its broken and gone now"

Andrus to the Sox, expected to play 2B, 1 yr, $3 mil
I don't expect him to struggle and be left in the lineup. I expect him to be DFA at some point this year. I don't like the move simply because its just not necessary. Our season wont make or break by the position of 2B and I would rather see younger players with more upside get the opportunity right away rather than watching Andrus. Especially in the off chance that he does struggle and they keep throwing him out there. I hope he kills it, that would be awesome. Nothing suggests that will be the case.
