  1. What revenue from the club is he not using for their baseball operations? And how would the accounting work for spending his own money to ensure that he isn't spending the other owners' money?
  2. Cy Bauers would like a word with you...
  3. And a number of them are not competing with any pro teams for fan's money. No pro teams in Alabama, Mississippi, South Carolina, Arkansas, or Kentucky. And no pro teams worth spending money on in North Carolina, Louisiana, or Tennessee right now (excluding the Panthers, Florida is debatable).
  4. Not far off from what I have, except I have DE and DT flipped. Slaton left in FA, the Packers have to make a 5th year option decision on Wyatt by 5/1, and Clark is due over $20M in cash in 2026 at age 31. With the Packers already sitting at $270M in cap liabilities before any extensions for their 2022 draft class, I don't see both Wyatt and Clark - perhaps neither of them - on the 2026 team. I also have OG in that third tier. Like Clark, Jenkins is due $20M at age 31 in 2026 and Rhyan will be a free agent or possibly moving to center. The way that Glover and Telfort performed in the Eagles game, I could see GB wanting better depth in 2025 and someone ready to step in in 2026.
  5. I had a feeling that this would not be the year of upsets, and it has turned into exactly that. Elite eight were three 1 vs 2 and one 1 vs 3. I thought that there was a clear line between the 2 seeds and the 3-4 seeds.
  6. Call me old school, but if the other team has seven home runs by the third inning someone on the other team should have taken one in the ribs by now.
  7. BYU ended up shooting 20% from 3 (6-30) and still scored 88. They needed to shoot 40% from 3 to score 91 against UW. If the would have shot 20% against UW, UW would have blown them off the court. What could have been. Such is the randomness of the NCAA tournament.
  8. Who the hell is Bladimir Restituyo??
  9. Which was a function of an early PH for Mitchell, otherwise Chourio would have been in LF and Mitchell likely makes a better throw that gets the runner.
  10. I think I've seen this movie before...
  11. Rashan Gary would like a word with you...
  12. Need to find a mule who can fetch that for me...
  13. Not currently on the website
  14. Love the plaid background on the patch. I just might have to get a jersey this year. I wonder if the City Connect will have both the ball grill and the Uecker patch. Edit: Hmmm... on the official team shop site the images of the jerseys don't have the Uecker patch. Someone please let me know if the jerseys for sale at the stadium have the Uecker patch.
  15. Have to call the game over if they get down by more than one run before the 5th inning.
  16. Yeah, that's tax law. It's always happened to me. You're taxed based on that being weekly/bi-weekly/monthly/whatever your pay cycle is projected out to annual.
  17. Someone sitting in one of the two premiere sections (100-level) that were allocated to the UW season ticket holders for the BYU game on Saturday said that there were two people sitting in front of them who were BYU fans. Chose to scalp the tickets for money online instead of going themselves or transferring them to other Badgers fans. And the season ticket holder who requested tickets for me didn't get them - they were gone by the time they got to their level of giving, so the people who got and sold those tickets have plenty of money (enough to give significantly more on top of their season tickets). SMDH. It's bad enough that the NCAA only allocates 500 tickets to each school and sells the others well before the teams are announced, which only feeds the scalpers. They need to make the tickets they give to the school non-transferable. It's easy to do with all tickets electronic now. Red Rocks Amphitheater has made the tickets for the first four rows at shows there non-transferable. And they need to allocate more than 500 tickets per school.
  18. Continuing this. As previously mentioned, my vehicle insurance went up significantly when moving to Denver. I was told it was because vehicle insurance in Colorado is expensive (2nd highest vehicle thefts per capita, hail, liability laws, etc.). Got my renewal... and uninsured/underinsured went up 70% and Liability went up 36%. However, the discount for paying 6-months in full went up also, so the net increase was 14%. Called them to understand why the 70%/36% increase. Spoke to someone who was a bit difficult to understand, but perhaps the first insurance person I've spoken to on the phone who actually understood what I was asking. Took an hour to find out that when I moved to Colorado they had to write a new policy because it was a different state (which I knew... they can deregulate that any time now). But they didn't transfer over my Accident Forgiveness, and she found out that I had four points against me on my policy rate. She got my policy re-run with the Accident Forgiveness, and got $410 deducted from my renewal premium. Back down to $680 for 6-months. An hour well spent.
  19. Which would be great, if they weren't already pushing up against the 2026 cap... with a top OT that they still need to extend. The average cap number comes due at some point.
  20. Compared to recent years when Rodgers, Bakhtiari, et. al., left them in cap hell, yes, they had some money to spend. (Some people don't understand the difference between gross cap space and effective cap space.) But $30M isn't going to get you a top WR, DE/Edge rusher, CB, and IOL. Particularly when arguably the top WR available is going to cost $30M/year and draft picks... and you have a top OT that you're trying to extend as well.
  21. They weren't going to address all of their needs with top players with only $30M of effective cap space.
