  1. Some posters here too
  2. Imagine within a 24 hour period your team is 0-2 and going back to Seattle.
  3. He’s still a ****ing nazi and his supporters are endorsing fascism and thus appear to like Nazis. Israel doesn’t get to define it. So if that’s your thing….
  4. I forgot about this until mid, I’m watching the Wings/Leafs just now courtesy of Ken Daniels when he referred to the Mariners as the Expansion cousins to the Jays.
  5. but what's the benchmark? He sets it. And you don't know what it is until you have the Tigers and Yankees and Dodgers and Mets and whoever else bidding for him against each other.
  6. Christian Stewart, anyone? Can all the Megans out there get together and figure out how we're spelling your name?
  7. Boras works for Skubal. doesn't matter what those other players did. Tarik has all but said he's going to FA. He's the best pitcher in baseball and has the chance to set a new standard for the SP market.
  8. I think a fanbase that for years had to put up with Nick "Lindstrom" is patient enough to get over Olson vs Olsen. Nobody died.
  9. Skubal will not sign a contract before becoming a FA. Any negotiations with the Tigers will be, by definition, non competitive. He's talked about his responsibility as a player. He's going to be a FA.
  10. I can't believe Seattle won. That's huge for them.
  11. You were not in the room or on the phone calls or privy to any of the negotiations. You fail to grasp that moves in baseball require the consent of two parties to agree. This isn’t a video game. “He didn’t do what I imagined in my head he could do” is not a valid criticism
  12. MAGA is illiterate.
  13. You literally made all of that up. Not a single thing has any foundation behind it. It’s all conjecture.
  14. I truly don’t understand where this narrative came from about Scott Harris being “afraid”. Especially when you consider he’s been in charge for only 3 seasons and they made the playoffs in 2 of them. It’s an urban legend with no basis in reality.
  15. You don’t think other smart GM’s would be able to see thru that scheme?
  16. I read something that confirmed that. It was quick and unexpected and she didn’t want anyone to know.
  17. JV was sentimental. He was open to staying here as long as the money was fine. Max was about the money. That’s not a criticism. It’s business. He was traded here so there isn’t an attachment. That weird press release didn’t sit right with me. That was their way of covering their butt. Tarik will not sign before FA. I believe that as much as I believe anything sports related.
  18. What’s hilarious about that scene is she’s at school with the students. They are walking. Then he shows up. She just stops and starts walking with him then leaves with him. What happens to the kids? She just leaves work?
  19. It was more like a shadow.
  20. Part of the problem is Fox’s box is not accurate. A few times I saw a “garbage” pitch then I would check game day and it was either ok or close enough. I quit checking because the TV was a pitch behind. I saw a scorecard that gave him high marks. I stand corrected. Especially over a 15 inning game.
  21. He graduated to pulling legs off frogs and kicking puppies and kittens.
  22. She was also his wife. One of the top 3 shots of the whole trilogy is the door being closed on her at the end.
