It's these types of risks that the Brewers have to take. Even if the Brewers signed Hiura to something like what Albies or Acuna got that is still a lot lower than what Yelich got or any of the recent free agents or what Adames, Burnes or Woodruff will get. You have to take some risk and the risk of losing $$$ is far lower with signing these early extensions for players like Chourio, Mitchell, Frelick and others. -
What would the league do? They really wouldn’t do anything and if they did they would have an issue with the NFLPA and the owners. Basically it would be the NFL telling the Packers sorry about your situation but get under the cap or face consequences.

Touché sir touché.

Regardless of the Brewers model it doesn't make much financial sense for Burnes, Woodruff and Adames to sign a long term deal right now with the Brewers. The Brewers would have to pay market rate or close to it for the three. I don't believe Adames is worth market rate and definitely not so into his later 30's. I really like Adames but there is a point where like and his production just don't make sense financially for the team.

Decided to start a new thread for the 2023 season. Biggest news so far is that Derrick Henry is now on the trade block. https://www.si.com/nfl/titans/news/derrick-henry-on-the-trade-block-according-to-combine-report I think that would eliminate the Titans as a possible trade destination for Rodgers. It looks like the Titans are going on a rebuild right now.

That would be a crazy scenario and would be interesting to see. If it got to that point then something really bad happened or perceived to have happened from Rodgers point of view. This is like Farve 2.0 all over again and as a Bears fan it is rather comical to watch unfold. I think Rodgers is far more vindictive than Farve was and I wouldn't be surprised if this is something that Rodgers does. Probably forces him into a trade to somewhere he wants to go maybe Miami, Vegas or Detroit? If this scenario plays out it would tie the Packers hands completely and they would have basically no say on where he is going. So if Rodgers wanted to play for the Vikings or the Lions the Packers would have to trade him to those teams and at that point they are probably only getting minimal compensation for it. So something like a 2nd or 3rd round draft pick in '24 for Rodgers.

Is a 40-yard dash even useful information? Yes someone can run a really fast 40-yard dash but that is without being fully equipped with pads and a helmet and is usually on a surface that is easier to get a grip and run as fast as possible. I would think game speed would be more important than a 40 time.
-
At this time it is better to extend players like Frelick, Mitchell, Wiemer, Turang, Chourio and others. For Adames right now it makes more sense to go the free agent route. The amount of money being thrown around for free agents is just insane right now. I don't believe it would be prudent for the Brewers to sign Adames to a contract similar to Swanson. At a minimum I think Adames gets the Swanson deal and I just don't believe that would be a good idea for the Brewers.

Well the end user also needs to be smart. Would be better if all of your smart devices were in one hub. Update the hubs password to the new WiFi password. That way you only change one instead of all of them.

No not blaming them just stating a fact about most of the tech layoff people who were in high paying jobs. Most are using their severance pay on vacations where some haven't taken one in a long time. The younger Millennials and the two Z's that I work with are not really interested in Hawaii they see it as an old people vacation spot. They prefer Mexico, Miami, Nashville, LA and the Caribbean over Hawaii. Small sample and all that other stuff yes I know.

Severance package from the tech companies money is being spent on travel.

Is this a serious question? The answer is an emphatic yes. It is all about the clicks! Weird Al should do a parody of It's All About the Benjamins but rename it to It's All About the Clicks.

That is why I said apparently.

Apparently the Packers are disgusted with Rodgers and are done with him. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2023/02/17/report-packers-are-disgusted-with-aaron-rodgers-theyre-done-with-him/amp/

Large corporations no. I doubt the letter would even get to them maybe an email and that is probably going to get lost in a sea of emails. I get about 100+ emails a day and most go into folders I never look at. The likelihood of someone’s thank you email getting in one of my folders I don’t check is at a 90% chance.

The tech jobs the actual tech jobs that are being lost are being gobbled up by startups and financial institutions. These layoffs are not like the banking layoffs. The tech jobs translate to other jobs if you get laid off at Google or Twitter you can pick up a job easily in the financial sector. If you got laid off by a financial company in 2008 you were not going to find another job as easily. Inflation is still a problem and with the recent CPI numbers I wouldn't be surprised if the FED goes back to a 75BP hike.

The only right answer. You have a hall of fame center and a hall of fame SG/SF. How this team didn't win one is just crazy.
-
From a few economists that I have read from they are predicting a 4.3 CPI for tomorrow. Which if true probably means more rate hikes.
-
You are looking at it incorrectly. It is not the net gain/loss but the probability of the outcomes.

You can mitigate risk with your 401k also. The closer you get to retirement start switching over to safer investments. So at 55-60 start allocating more towards bonds and cash. Once at your retirement and withdrawal age go completely cash and bonds and then cash out. Also removing your 401k wouldn't be a good idea if your employer is matching. I am not sure with government jobs if that is an option. But you would be losing money if there is a match. I wouldn't draw from social security until you are at the age of retirement for social security. You lose a lot per month if you draw early.

Branch fits the Packers defensive scheme almost perfectly. QB probably not in the 1st round but third or fourth I think the Packers have to think about it. The only way I see the Packers taking a QB in the first is if they trade Rodgers and they get a top 10 pick for him. Jaxon I don’t believe will be a good NFL WR. It would be foolish to take Mayer in the 1st where the Packers are picking. Van Ness could be a sleeper at the Packers pick.

I have given up on washing my car in Arizona. I would have to go every weekend to get it washed just to keep it clean. Now I just do it after each oil change. It is impossible to keep a car clean in Arizona.

This is probably the best film I have seen in years. Now if only someone would make a more recent Korean War film that is worth watching.

Where in my post did I compare them to the Brewers? You were the one who said they don't have these situations when they do. Also Darvish is not a #1 or #2 type pitcher anymore he just isn't. He is a #3 type pitcher and on most of the playoff teams that is where he would be. The only team where Darvish would be the #1 would be the Cardinals. The Cardinals do not currently have a #1 type pitcher on their staff and Darvish would be a clear upgrade. The Mets have Verlander and Scherzer, Braves have Fried and Wright, Dodgers have Urias and Kershaw, Phillies have Nola and Wheeler. So yeah Darvish is a #3 or #4 on most of the playoff teams. ERA- is also a better stat to use than WAR for pitchers. Darvish was the 20th ranked player in 2022 with an ERA- of 80. The same as Nola so maybe he is the Phillies #2 so a coin flip there. The only team where Darvish is a clear better #1 are the Cardinals.
