    Have fun with a first place schedule and the realization you're going to have to start shedding veteran contracts this offseason to pay Williams on a roster that still needs a ton of help on defense, Bears fans. At least you beat the Packers twice though - hang that banner!

    Chicago will still throw a parade...Will be a good send-off when they move the stadium back to Gary
  3. Fear The Chorizo
    Thank you for proving me wrong, Ram special teams
  4. Fear The Chorizo
    This cannot come down to a rams field goal to win it...because they will screw it up
  5. Fear The Chorizo
    Hey look, another Brett Favre play!
  6. Fear The Chorizo
    Offensive geniuses...lol
  7. Fear The Chorizo
    He'll be on the verge of superstardom until his style of play blows out a couple knees
  8. Fear The Chorizo
    Both qb's playing like that, actually
  9. Fear The Chorizo
    Bears are going to stumble into an actual drive by getting back to the run at some point
  10. Fear The Chorizo
    Awful, windy conditions to pass...so naturally attempt 30 passes and run it only 10 times when you're getting 4.5 yards a carry. What the actual hell, McVay?
  11. Fear The Chorizo
    This game reeks of awful Ram special teams costing them late
  12. Fear The Chorizo
    I cant see them walking into Seattle and winning next wkend....but yeah its not zero percent possibility at this point Still think the Rams pull this one out
  13. Fear The Chorizo
    Crazy one handed catch....that probably shouldnt be a catch. That ball moved once it hit the ground in his hand
  14. Fear The Chorizo
    Texan receivers wearing the latest brand of vaseline-infused gloves today
  15. Fear The Chorizo
    Pats might just kneel on it 3 plays amd punt until the Texans score again
  16. Fear The Chorizo
    This is comically bad in terms of turnovers for Pats/Texans
  17. Fear The Chorizo
    Its amazing that one of these teams or a Broncos team on a backup quarterback will be in the super bowl with how sloppy these offenses are.
  18. Fear The Chorizo
    It starts with them getting a coach who can change a culture that wasnt anything like it was under Belichek. Along with spending a ton in free agency since their qb is on a rookie deal Also helps facing this Texans offense who seems to be allergic to holding onto the football
  19. Fear The Chorizo
    Its a shame Stroud and the Texans' offense is imploding with turnovers on dropped passes and terrible pocket presence....their defense is awesome to watch play

    The issue is the Dodgers can go on autopilot for 162 games, make sure their veteran starters are healthy, and steamroll through the playoffs - their farm system and IL roster are plenty deep to sleepwalk to 90+ wins. I think the only way, absent the financial system actually getting fixed, to put the screws on their organization is for the rest of MLB to essentially boycott trading with the Dodgers, ultimately forcing then to have to flat out release or make available blocked prospects to the Rule 5 draft, and veterans coming off IL, getting nothing of value in return for them. That includes nobody selling them veteran reinforcements at the trade deadline, too. Force them to play with an aging roster or have to DFA valuable players.

    Exactly - the Dodgers are playing by the set of rules governing the sport...problem is the rules mirror what the warden had set up for the guards against the inmates in The Longest Yard. They arent fair and need to get changed - and its worth missing as many seasons as it takes to get it right.
  22. Fear The Chorizo
    The US taxes their rich people plenty, too....that's a story for another setting though. I'm guessing Ohtani makes more in endorsements already being taxed in Japan anyways - and it'd be easy for him to find a nice spot in FLA or TX for 10 years before moving back to the motherland if he wanted to. So yeah, CA is getting screwed on deferred money.
  23. Fear The Chorizo
    They've more or less confirmed that the Dodgers made back the totality of their financial commitment to Ohtani after the 1st season he played with them in overseas marketing revenues. In terms of individual team revenues that aren't shared, it wouldn't surprise me if the Dodgers bring in more $$ than the bottom 15-20 MLB organizations combined annually - if not more teams.
  24. Fear The Chorizo
    One question I have on the deferred money - Do state income taxes on that deferred money depend on where the player lives when it's paid out, or would it be taxed by the state of California irregardless of where the player lives? Depending on the answer to that question, I would think the state government of CA would be pretty pissed about how the Dodgers are paying players, too - assuming Ohtani moves to an income tax-free state or back to Japan right after he retires and the $68M annual deferred money starts coming in. Even if it's ultimately taxed by CA, they're missing out on a pretty large chunk of tax revenue now when, quite frankly, they really need it. The only solution I can see is MLB taking over all broadcast rights and then sharing it across the league equally. Big market teams still keep some of their financial advantages, but the funny money gets distributed evenly so mid and small market clubs at least have a prayer of competing on the field. It's either that, or you put a cap on what local TV revenue can be used to fund player payroll, AND put a tight cap on the percentage of what any player's contract can be deferred.
  25. Fear The Chorizo
    They wont, because theyll keep funneling in a top prospect here and there or signing younger premier free agents along the way. They have a bottomless piggy bank to offset costs and the deferred money/luxury tax element doesnt have nearly enough teeth in it to harm any current or future onfield talent the Dodgers will put on the field.
