  1. They passed because of the franchise fee which has increased almost 1000 times since the Pettit's tried.
  2. Yeah Austin makes sense and Houston to some extent also. But New Orleans and Atlanta? I am not sure those markets make sense for hockey. If Milwaukee isn’t a viable option then New Orleans wouldn’t be one with Houston being in consideration and the same for Indianapolis. Though I am fine with Indianapolis getting a team. I think a better fit would replace New Orleans with Austin and replace Atlanta with Milwaukee. If you are just looking at the cities that makes more sense to me. Also a $2bn franchise fee seems excessive. Maybe the NHL means a total of $2bn in franchise fees for the four cities and not $2bn each. If it is a total of $2bn then that makes more sense as it falls in line with the most recent expansion cities fees.
  3. Apparently Giannis nixed a Middleton for Butler deal. I think Butler would have tried to nix the deal also on his end. https://sports.yahoo.com/article/giannis-antetokounmpo-told-bucks-not-165725902.html
  4. I had to do the same when I lived in Milwaukee. I had to actively try and not be miserable especially from November to about March. Just absolutely miserable to live in Milwaukee from that timeframe if it wasn’t the cold it was the snow and then if it wasn’t that it was something else. One of the reasons I moved from Milwaukee was just to miserable there.
  5. Apparently not and I believe Phoenix has to be offered one also as I believe that was part of the deal that moved them from Phoenix to Salt Lake City. But I think there is a set year that it has to happen by. This maybe outside that.
  6. Too much for Cortes.
  7. The Bucks haven't signed Turner yet so that $7mm exception is still there until he officially signs with the Bucks.
  8. The Bucks do have a $7mm trade exception they can use but that wouldn't be enough to offset a salary like Jrue's even if you include Kuzma and a future 1st.
  9. The NHL is looking to expand again and drum roll please....... Milwaukee is not on the list. The four cities that the NHL is looking at are Indianapolis, Houston, Atlanta and New Orleans with Austin on the outside looking in. Reported franchise fee is $2bn. Yeah I don't see Milwaukee getting a franchise when the fee is $2bn. Not enough possible revenue for a team in Milwaukee to pay for that fee.
  10. That sounds like a nightmare.
  11. I used to do Omaha Steaks but only because they offered a free crockpot and well this is the best crockpot I have ever had. The meats were ok nothing great. Don’t get the burgers they are overpriced and taste bland and shrink smaller than a slider at a local dive bar. I have used Butcher Box once or twice sometimes it is worth it and other times not so much. The subscription can suck especially if you need to make food for more than two people. Sometimes the steaks were really small and other times the correct size and weight. Taste wise they are nothing special and probably equal to what you can get at the supermarket. Same problem with the burgers again where they shrivel up to tiny little sliders.
  12. They still have the $7mm trade exception from the Middleton trade so they could add a PG that way. Giannis is reportedly not happy with the Dame release. Also apparently Giannis recruited Turner.
  13. This is a tough month and far harder than June. 12-12 would be my guess.
  14. I could be mistaken but I thought for the AZL they normally don't do repeat players.
  15. Later this season? I mean that is a bit optimistic maybe September at best would be his return timeline and I don't think that is really realistic. I think the playoffs would be a more realistic timeline but that wouldn't be ideal.
  16. There is more drag on the ball this year which may explain for some of the low scoring.
  17. Could have been worse. Was hoping for a trade or two for some more picks in the 2nd round. I guess they will use the trade exception from the Middleton trade to get someone like Jevon Carter.
  18. I would all be for trading for another 2nd round pick or two in this draft. The 2nd round looks like it should have some interesting players that could fit and play for the Bucks. Kam Jones and John Tonje would be easy fits into the Bucks rotation. The Bucks need another G and preferably a PG so Kam Jones would fit that and John Tonje could fit at SG or SF. He maybe too small to play SF in the NBA. Try and get picks 37 and 40. Take Rocco Zikarsky with the 37th pick, Kam Jones at 40 and then John Tonje at 47. I think that would fill all of the holes that the Bucks have currently.
  19. 130 innings sounds about right. That would be about 130% of his innings pitched last year of 97.1 and if you go with his innings increase from 2023 to 2024 that would put him at 133 innings which is basically the 130 innings.
  20. They could buy a pick which does happen in the later part of the NBA draft.
  21. I told you to skip 28 weeks later.
  22. They may be able to buy a pick. They are going to lose Portis and Porter so they should have some cap flexibility to buy a pick. They may need to trade a future 2nd.
  23. That would be a good pick at 47. I am hoping somehow the Bucks are able to get into the 20-30 range. Not sure how they can do this. I wouldn’t be surprised if they trade Jackson for a pick.
  24. Suarez will cost more than people think as he will probably be the best bat on the market if the Dbacks even put him on the market. There are a few teams with holes at 3B or even DH that will over pay in prospects. I think Suarez cost will be at least 1 5-10 team ranked prospect, 1 15-20, one lottery ticket from the DSL and one AAAA player. That is just not worth it for about a half of a season of Suarez. I don't like McMahon never have and never will. I see him as an overrated player and someone that this board has somehow got a huge crush on. The Rockies won't part with him for the peanuts that have been suggested in trades here. I don't want to see the Brewers trading from their prospect depth unless it is for someone like Sabathia, Greinke or Yelich (the younger version of Yelich). If the Brewers can get a deal that won't cost them top prospects then sure trade for Suarez but I don't believe this will be true. I also don't believe there is a Sabathia, Greinke or Yelich type on the market to trade for. At best you are looking at Suarez who may not even be available. The Dbacks are only 2.5 games back for the final wild card spot. Unless you are willing to give up someone on the roster now for Suarez and no Myers would not be of interest to the Dbacks. Patrick would probably be of more interest to the Dbacks and I think you would have to add in a prospect like Henderson or Adams to make the Dbacks consider a trade. That is just way too much for Suarez.
