  1. So the Bears essentially have the #1 and #10 pick in the draft. I still don't like Fields but it looks like they are going to keep him and trade out of the #1 pick. There are some rumors that the Bears could receive up to 3 1st round picks plus a 2nd round or a veteran player for that #1 pick. I prefer to trade Fields and get a 3rd-5th round pick for him and then reset the cap situation at the QB spot with a rookie QB deal. But multiple 1sts and a 2nd round pick for that #1 pick is tempting especially if it is from the Patriots.
  2. The ETF's will solve this and I am almost 100% confident the SEC is going to pass these. There are too many big name financial banks that are supporting these ETF's for the SEC to deny them.
  3. Majority of HS players who play the IF are also labeled as SS. Usually your best and most athletic are either playing SS or CF. So nearly every OF in HS and internationally are labeled either as SS or CF even if they will never play a single inning at SS or CF in their baseball careers. It is also the same with pitchers everyone is a SP there are very few who are labeled as RP.
  4. Kind of like the Heat in the past few years where the Bucks just couldn't find a way to win against them especially in the playoffs.
  5. This is a mistake. If the ETF bitcoins are approved by the SEC then Bitcoin will start to stabilize. Even if you drop bitcoin to just 0.5% you should be fine. One of the biggest mistakes by retirees is getting out of high risk investments. You are losing out on potential gains by doing this and putting you at risk on relying solely on your low risk assets which may not keep up with inflation.
  6. Good mix but I would add bitcoin to the real-estate fund/gold. Maybe do something like 1.5% bitcoin, 1.5% gold and 2% REIT.
  7. Salaries are not tied to income as income is everything after expenses. If you mean revenue then also no. It is not until you get to budgeting where salaries are determined. This is the bottom line that a company wants to make. It then allocates the expense amount compared to the income the company wants to make. Income doesn’t drive salaries as that is already included in the income stage. If you want to compare the percentage the players get based on revenue sure that maybe an outlier but CEO’s and other executive types also fall under this. So not really an outlier. As sales people also receive a higher percentage when compared to revenue. Sports are also not an outlier in economics as they follow the same economic rules as any other entertainment industry does. Not an outlier unless you can find an economics paper saying otherwise.
  8. Tell me you know nothing about economics without saying you know nothing about economics.
  9. If you read my full post and didn't stop at the first part it is fairly obvious I am talking about today's dollars compared to 1989.
  10. That same contract today would be about $8mm a season. So 3 years $24mm is what it would cost you for that contract today. There is no way you are getting someone like Yount for that. Actual contract is probably closer to 3 years $48mm taking his age into consideration in 1989. So you need to double the amount given out to those players after taking inflation into consideration. Even Reggie Jackson in 1976 would only cost about $4mm today per season. Definitely not signing anyone like Reggie for about $4mm today. If Reggie were a FA now he would be getting something closer to $20-$25mm a season. You are looking at about a 900% increase in FA cost from the 70’s-90’s. It is not until about 2000 where FA deals start to normalize and there isn’t as wide of a gap between the top players and now. That is only about a 20-year gap now.
  11. How is this a fine on the RB? This is an example of why the NFL just sucks now. Just remove the pads and helmets and go with flags already.
  12. LOL yes you own stock in the team but that is about it. Heck the board of directors could disregard your vote and there would be no penalty for them doing so and also nothing you can do about it as it is not guaranteed or protected by anything other than the Packers word. You bought a novelty item nothing more nothing less.
  13. I have posted this in the past but I will post this again. If you want to be in the CFP you have to play at a minimum two games against ranked opponents in the top 15 and they can’t be from your own conference. So if you are Ohio State then Michigan or Penn State wouldn’t count. I think this would make the actual season mean something. Rankings would also come out earlier in the preseason. If a team doesn’t have two scheduled outside their conference then they can’t play in the CFP.
  14. Very weird. Grissom must have no trade value if this is who he was traded for. Even with cash added to the deal it would have to be a significant amount for it to bring up the value.
  15. You would have to pay something close to what the Giants paid last year for Conforto. So at a minimum you are looking at 2-years $36mm.
  16. Flacco for another SB MVP?
  17. I really like this song:
  18. Russell Wilson expects to be released in March: https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10102738-nfl-rumors-russell-wilson-expects-to-be-released-by-broncos-in-march-after-benching#:~:text=Wilson is "expecting to be,him from after this season."
  19. The Yankees definitely reject that before the Brewers do.
  20. I don’t think the Brewers would offer him a long term contract. Maybe a 4-year contract for $96mm with deferred payments for 2-years at $3mm per year if he opts out after year one otherwise it is $4mm per year for 5-years. Year one at $17mm, year two at $19mm, year three and four at $20mm each year. The Brewers wouldn’t be able to give Hader a QO after year one also. I don’t think this makes sense for the Brewers but this should be close to what it would take to sign him. I am not sure this makes much sense for Hader either.
  21. This probably says more about MLF than it does about Jaire. The team is going off the rails and it doesn't look like MLF is trying to fix it. But that is just my observation as a non Packers fan.
  22. I have no idea what the Blue Jays are doing here. 2-years and $15m for Kiner-Falefa?
  23. And only 8-years away from Demolition Man. When are the franchise wars supposed to happen again?
  24. They really can't make a trade though. The best option for the Bucks would be P.J. Tucker but they would either have to trade Connaughton + or Portis for Tucker. There just isn't any room to add anyone to the roster.
  25. I haven't used Sirius in a long time. I am glad I canceled my subscription long ago. I just use Pandora, Amazon Music, iHeart Radio or Apple Music. iHeart Radio is a superior platform to Sirius. Also your cars don't have phone projection?
