  1. After using all 5 of my degrees of Kevin Bacon I finally found a contact there. Turns out they filled the position. A week later and they still haven't responded to my email asking if the position was open. Extremely frustrated by the lack of communication and dumbfounded that I didn't even get an interview.
  2. Starting LJax and McLaurin in my win or go home game and I somehow still have a shot because the rest of my lineup is going off. The win wouldn't even be question if these two have even a below average day. Instead I'm going to barely get 1 point combined between my QB and WR1.
  3. Coincidently (or not), Singleton's contract extension he signed with the Astros ended this year.
  4. This is an absolute train wreck (in a good way) interview with Chuck Taylor, Trent, and Orange Cassidy.
  5. Applied for a job on November 12. I can't see how I don't at least get an interview for this job. Figured I would be contacted for an interview Thanksgiving week or the week after. Emailed them on Monday asking if the position was still open and no response. With all the talk about how "hot" the job market is supposed to be I figured this would be a rather quick process and not weeks of drown out ghosting like it was 5-10 years ago when I last looked for a job.
  6. Had they just run up the middle and been stopped short I don't think it would seem as bad as it did since instead Jared Goff turned into a comedy act and was quickly sacked for a 10 yard loss and fumbled.
  7. Renfroe played 144 games, got close to 600 PA's, and by far had the most innings in the OF for the Red Sox. Saying he was unwanted, surplus garbage to the Red Sox just doesn't seem to be true at all.
  8. Why are so many people assuming the DH is coming to the NL? I haven't seen any reports that it's even under consideration.
  9. Zimmer did everything he could to let the Lions win that game.
  10. I thought that was pretty funny actually. It was a real "gutsy" call and "shows how tough" a coach Dan Campbell is and then Goff proceeds to crap all over the field and essentially lose the game.
  11. Totally agree........unfortunately without a cap or even more widespread revenue sharing don't see it happening. Unfortunately it is the smaller market teams who are considered "cheap". MLBPA actually wants to reduce revenue sharing, as they feel that those smaller market clubs who benefit from the current revenue sharing program are simply pocketing that money, and not reinvesting it in player salaries. They likely aren't wrong, either, when it comes to many teams. The MLBPA wants that money to stay with the large markets, because those teams have proven that they aren't afraid to invest it in players. This leads me to believe that if the MLBPA had its way, there would be even more of a difference between the "haves" and "have nots" in MLB. If MLBPA requires a salary floor, it stands to reason that owners would then require a cap ... which MLBPA will likely never agree to. Exactly what I said in another thread. There is zero financial benefit to the players or the vast majority of owners to "even the field" so it won't happen.
  12. The NBA did the same thing a few years ago apparently.
  13. I don't know why anyone thinks "helping out small markets" is something either side wants. It will suppress contracts for the players and would financially hurt the majority of the owners.
  14. I'm with you. Could I save money by constantly switching services to chase the lowest price? Sure. But I'm fine paying the extra for the convenience of not having to do that. Not to mention I have grandparents that come to my house to watch my kids. My mother in law needs me to show her how to turn the TV on whenever she's here. I'm not going to have to explain to her every couple weeks how the new streaming service works.
  15. I haven't watched a non-Brewers playoff game in years. And I only watched the first half of the first Brewers playoff game this past year. Adding more playoff games isn't going to add me as a viewer.
  16. Every team makes signings like these. I don't know why anyone would waste an ounce of brain space to even think about them.
  17. Bigger pieces of human garbage - college football coaches or politicians? I'll hang up and take my answer off the air.
  18. The same people complaining about the Brewers being priced out of the market are likely the same people complaining about the contacts of Yelich, Cain, and JBJ. And they also probably complained about Braun, Suppan, Lohse, and Hammonds. Time and time again throwing gobs of money at players has proven to be a mistake but yet somehow the Brewers are dumb for not doing it.
  19. Scherzer is a big shot in the Players Union. Of course, he doesn't need the money but the Player's Union isn't going to accept the status quo. Rather they are going to push for more and more to pave the way for the guys coming behind them. It's the same logic that lead Yasmani Grandal to taking a one year deal with the Brewers, to raise up the AAV for the catcher's coming behind him. Which is collusion from the players side but whatever. I remember in Tom Glavine's book he talked about wanting to take a lesser deal to stay with the Braves but he was worried what the union would think about it so he signed with the Mets. Who cares? Play where you want to play.
  20. Because he's not a likable guy. Although I don't like the act of relatives of players getting involved on social media getting involved, I certainly understand it when it comes to Baker Mayfield. Honest question - what makes him “not a likable guy”? I’ve never really paid any attention to him. I never got it either. I guess he said some stuff in college. People look for any and every reason to hate people these days.
  21. Do Max Scherzer's great grandchildren really need him to make another $130M so they can eat? I have no problem with players getting paid but some of these contracts are ridiculous. If guys who already have $100M+ in the bank are going to be signing another contract the size of the GDP of a small nation then a certain percentage of that should be designated for charity.
  22. Ya, this seems pretty reasonable if not a bargain.
  23. Since the Rams have "gone all in" neither has won a super bowl but the Rams have made it there. Seems the results are about equal.
  24. Some of these deals seem way too long. Makes me wonder if front offices think the new CBA will give them someway to get out of long term contracts.
