Different sport but is Jon Rahm's blood money deal actually better than Ohtani's deal? Did he get $400 million up front?

A week later he puts the same guy on waivers, and turns to the audience with a look of shocked surprise on his face.

Jennifer and Bailey and Ginger and Mary Ann, they are all adequate for the teenaged male fantasist, but none of them can even come close to Mrs. Peel.

Yeah you probably like Ginger better than Mary Anne.

Anthony Badoomboom.

That's it, I'm never coming in here again. I mean it this time.

Oh absolutely it's Bailey, all day.

Spooky.

That is a nice deal for Candelario, it looks like an overpay to me. He'll like Cincinnati, the way that Castellanos and Suarez did.

That's because Scott Harris doesn't want to win. How do I know that? Because he didn't find a creative solution for getting Cabrera off the team last winter.

Good one.

You're struggling to understand it.

You are new here, and will be forgiven some mistakes borne of inexperience. Your post here is unintentionally hilarious because you don't know that you are speaking to, probably, the pre-eminent engineer of this entire community...and you have called him out for being "skeptical of science". It's pretty funny but you will probably get a free pass this time.

I do have to modify this a bit...I don't like the way he wears his hat. He jams it down tight on his head, the tops of his ears are sticking up above his hat band, and the top of his hat is clinging to his head. That isn't how you wear a baseball hat. You wear the band above the tops of your ears, and there is an air space between the top of your head and the inside of your hat. If I were to fire him for anything, it would be this.

Yes, everybody knows Leyland had a Tigers org pedigree but so did Moss, he had paid his dues. But Anderson was a "proven winner" as if against all odds he had managed to achieve success with a team that included Bench, Morgan, Rose, Tony Perez, Griffey Sr etc. You're right it was uncharacteristic of Campbell whose great sin otherwise was keeping guys too long, as opposed to ditching them too soon.

Leyland also did a nice job of chewing post-game food while being interviewed.

I'm neither disappointed nor pleased. As some have pointed out it removes the lame duck aura, but other than that it doesn't make business sense. I am not aware that Hinch does much particular harm, or much particular good, same as any other manager.

Go with experience, Dennis Rodman.

Neither one of them is authorized to speak about their government's policy.

I feel badly for Jen Psaki, she is really going to miss out. I was going to date her, but then I thought "No. You guys are going to elect Trump again...well not exactly, the Electoral College will elect him again...and 6 months later Jen will be in prison". So, I'm not proud of it, I said I would call her but I didn't. I just feel like I should be honest with everyone, I am not the perfect boyfriend for someone who is in prison.

The funniest thing in this forum for the entire year is the notion that G2 is "struggling to understand" something!

I'm happy about this. I wanted him to get the job instead of Les Moss and Sparky Anderson, but things worked out in the end.

So wait, he has a "former self"? 🙂

He would type his responses without using CAPS.

I guess some attempts need to be made. But of course you can't share anything valuable with them, they will just steal it. My favourite TV expose about Chinese theft of intellectual property was about knockoff golf clubs, specifically drivers. There was Titleist rep there, he was handed 2 drivers...one was legit, and one was a Chinese knockoff. From their exterior appearance, he did not know which was the real one. Then the robot took a few swings with each of them, and the results were hilarious, the knockoff was 30 yards shorter and wildly inaccurate. Then they sawed both of the heads in half and the knockoff had drips in it like runny icing on a cake. I smiled contentedly at that, with schadenfreude, because I worked with a guy at the parent company in Pittsburgh who was a real asshole and a lousy golfer, and every year he bought a new driver and got a really great discount price on it! He probably had 15 Chinese drivers in his garage.
