Yes

I’m here to comfort you and say you shouldn’t worry about the Sox outlaying the largest contract in team history to a LH hitter from the national league who has a .250 career BA, walks a bit, strikes out quite a bit and plays corner OF.

Yea seriously WTF is that? Aliens? Aliens definitely qualifies as strange and dangerous for 3 months.

I think it suggests they thought Kimbrel would be nails in 2021 and then they could trade him for something comparable to Madrigal/Heuer before 2022 and replenish. Sounds really smart if you ask me.

Lol nice. Total Hahn fail. Jerry hired Hahn. Maybe Cuban will buy the Sox and fix things

Can’t wait to get back into the real important topics around here!

What? All I meant was that a lot of time and seasons were spent hoping and waiting. That seems like a possible outcome here as well, right? Sorry if that wasn’t clear.

Gordon Beckham and Avi Garcia couldn’t get better.

Huh? My whole point from months ago was that all this is going to do is hurt all the ancillary activities and industries that depend on & support the game. Shame on Tony for trying to claim he and the players are on the side of JoeBlow’s support company. Total BS. How about all the millions up for grabs every spring for the local diners and tourist areas? Hero Tony!

Lol okay Tony. Sticking up for the little guy. You’re a hero!

Duuuuude. You can easily think of businesses where your arbitrary 50k obviously doesn’t work. I love hyperbole as much as the next man but cmon here. Admit you didn’t mean it

Year 5 of the greatest misdirection and coverup maybe in American history.

Me too. I’m having a tough time imagining the IRS is cool with a team expensing such a massive number twice. Can anybody link to how this works?

One thing I really miss was that each ump would have a different strike zone than the guy the night before. Finding and using the ump’s zone was an art for both pitchers and hitters.

What makes you think speculation will stop? Is money going to stop being free all of a sudden?

Picking your opponent would be fricken awesome. They should do it like a UFC weigh-in. One representative from each team is there. Trash talking. Love it all

I dunno. I’ll watch baseball whenever it comes back, even if it took years. I just like watching this game.

I think the Rose dunk forbids it, no?

Oh wow that’s brutal. That should be an automatic testicle smash. Either side uses that word, testicle smash live TV. And maybe one of the vendors gets to do it since it’s his job that gets iced while both sides chortle about millions here and there.

Maybe time for a bump of his prediction thread for 2010

If I was to think purely selfishly, like, what solution would lead to a more enjoyable fan experience… I think I would land on giving almost all of the revenue to the company. Then there could be way cooler stuff at the ballpark like a stunt show after every game and nachos for a dollar forever. Free parking. Shoe shines. The list is endless.

I only want the bears to draft/sign linemen forever. Win the offensive trenches: every WR looks like Davonte Adams and RBs are AP. Win the defensive trenches: all your DBs are Deion Sanders and LBs are Urlacher.

What about shareholders? I thought those existed too

I quit watching NCAA because I don’t like watching shitty basketball players pass it around the 3 point line for 30 seconds every possession and call it “running a play”. ?

I can’t believe what I just watched. Just incredible. Might see a rule change due to how awesome that was. Insane.
