  1. The 38 yard line was pretty open
  2. Neat. No flag on a bodyslam
  3. But! But! He led his team to a superbowl!
  4. Would not shock me if he goes full clemens. Basically year by year and just calls his shots
  5. I like to aim lower. Their third baseman and backup catcher seem OK. Maybe we could add them. Anyone know who they are. Did we give them away for nothing?
  6. They're payroll is gonna blow past this year with just filling the roster out. Not sure they are gonna surpass 200 million.
  7. i expected them to be better and more competitive. After 1-4 and a blowout shutout in New England are either of those true?
  8. OK so you asked a question and didn't care what people said cause you had your mind made up. that's fun.
  9. Hey its not just him. DeSclafrini got $12 million from the Giants and promptly went back to a 6 era. Crap
  10. Three times in 4 weeks and one more to go. Solid NFL
  11. OK we're talking two langauges here. Cause you're making zero sense 1. You asked why people are talking about correa and not the other guys. 2. I pointed out the other shortstops that are all free agents are big pocket teams and have all said they want their guys to stay. 3. You asked yet the Tigers are going to outbid for Correra. I guess ingorning my point about the other shortstops you asked why nobody is talking about. Then didn't talk about them. 4. I pointed out your confusing and all over the place. Again pointing out the big pockets, homefield adavantage and other things that is why people don't talk about Turner and Swanson. I also pointed out the Yankees have to resign judge and the cubs are rebuilding. Also noting that none of those teams bid big on Correra last year. 5. You then talk about a bidding war for Correra. Again ignoring my point in 4 and then talk about only Swanson staying without any proof or reasoning again ignoring point 2. You want to get yourself straight about what you want to talk about and we'll be happy to discuss? Is it the other guys, is Corerra, is it why there will be a bidding war for Corerra is it why the Tigers will be able to outbid the dodgers both in money and wins to land Turner?
  12. I disagree. When we marginal pitchers get 8 to 10 like Pelfry, all Eduardo has to do is be semi OK this year and he can get the 48, not 60, he'd be forgoing by opting out. In a an offseason that looks like a lot of pitching movement he'd be a 31 year old coming over a decent year and a left. He'd could easily get a decent deal. If he opts in he gets the 48 but wouldn't be a free agent until 35. Big difference.
  13. I don't understand your comment. You think the Cubs are gonna spend or the Yankees are gonna pass on Judge and go over the luxury tax when they haven't? Also couldn't have those teams bid on Correra last year and nobody did? You asked why is nobody considering the others. It's simple they are deep pocket teams that want to keep em. Why waste time going after them when there is about a 1 percent chance they change teams? Meanwhile, Correra has a potential to leave Minnesota and you at least have a chance at him.
  14. Cause we're not gonna outbid the red Sox, dodgers and braves who all want to keep their own guys
  15. So then the point of your comment was? That humans have similar heights and weight. Thanks for the amazing insight.
  16. I don't trust Ohio State QBs ause of the past But take an alabama guy. Mac Jones, Tua, Jalen Hurts, mcCarron, McElroy, Croyle are who Saban has had drafted. Not like that group is lighting it up either.
  17. lol no he didn't. Fernando vina and Troy Percival don't count. I and Saber were both referring to the mega signings and you know that.
  18. The problem, at least I have, with Candy is that he's shown about one very good half year and that's it. Now we're paying him an estimated $7 million. It's unlikely he's gonna meet that half year, so is the money better spent elsewhere and letting someone else see if they can breakout. It's unlikely we'll be in the playoffs next year so might as well let a FA/young guy get those ABs instead of Candy and then jsut let him leave the next year. Take the money and spend it elsewhere.
  19. Yeah team usually keep guys around or they aren't on the proverbial "hot seat" with a .264 winning percentage! (that's assuming he gets to what you posted earlier of a 6-to-8 win season). I mean par for you, but if you don't think if they finish 5-12 he would be on the hot seat, you're nuts and just looking at it blindly. He got a long contract sure, but a .264 is god awful. It's a league where you are supposed to win on occasion. MCS didn't say he would be fired, just that the seat would be warm. Which of course it would be for any coach who goes 9-25 in two years.
  20. This is the correct answer. It was basically one of those pre-season "worst case scenario" type of seasons. Everything went wrong and it cost a lot of people jobs.
  21. They all do it. What are you talking about? Nobody signs a giant FA when they know they are gonna lose 100.
