  1. The Brewers have kind of sucked at hitting throughout the organization for quite awhile now. Probably time to try something new. Hire a 10 year old for all I care.
  2. Certainly helps the Cards for the next couple years but Goldy and Nolan could very well be the albatrosses that hold that team back after that. Those two will be paid quite handsomely for their mid to late 30's. And unless there's a DH at that time you can't just hide both aging players at first base. Also, I know there are some real doozies out there but for my money the Rockies are the worst run franchise in pro sports. They never go all in nor do they tear it down. They sit in mediocrity and eek out a playoff appearance every now and then while throwing gobs of money at their own players before unloading them soon after for next to nothing or just let them walk and still get nothing. They have no direction, no plan, nothing. Just spinning their wheels.
  3. Green Bay yes. Houston no.
  4. We thought last offseason's QB market was crazy, well 2021 says hold my beer. Stafford and Watson will be on the move. Some of Wentz, Darnold, Garapollo, Goff, and Newton will certainly be with new teams next year. Dak is technically a free agent and could force a trade if he gets franchised again. Of course the outside possibility that Rodgers really does want out. With a couple top QB prospects in the draft we could see half the league will new starting QB's next year.
  5. Turner also famously made major adjustments to his swing that made him the player he is today.
  6. [sarcasm]Things are looking up.[/sarcasm]
  7. https://www.ringsidenews.com/2021/01/28/brodie-lees-wife-opens-up-about-his-final-days/amp/ Brodie's wife recaps the events that led to his death for those interested. My two takeaways from it are how incredible AEW was to the family doing everything they could to get him help and help out the family. And also how incredible that he was essentially dying for two months and the whole company and all the wrestlers knew but not a word got out. That's amazing, not just in the wrestling business, but in the world today for something like that to be kept quiet.
  8. Exhibit A for why this site needs a "like" feature... This is nothing new. It happened already in the late 90's and has no doubt been happening ever since.
  9. I started reading "Living on the Black" which follows Tom Glavine and Mike Mussina during the 2007 season so I did some digging into Mussina's career because I really don't remember much about him. He must be the most underrated and unheralded pitcher of all time. I remember when he got into the HOF a couple years ago thinking he wasn't deserving and only got in because he spent half his career with the Yankees. Looking at his numbers had he been with a halfway decent team early in his career instead of the Orioles he's probably a 300 game winner and would have gotten a lot more notoriety.
  10. Forget about getting hurt, catcher's just break down faster. Look how quickly Lucroy fell off a cliff.
  11. Watched them make Detroit Style pizza on Cook's Country a couple weekends ago. It looked bad and pointless. Basically bread with sauce.
  12. I'm not blaming the refs at all or even in this game specifically, you just see it so often at the end of games where the winning defense is making a stop on 3rd or 4th down and all of a sudden DPI is called on a ticky tack play and the game is essentially flipped in the favor of the offense. The penalty for penalties puts way too much influence of the result of the game in the hands of the refs especially for how inconsistent they are in flagging certain things like holding and PI.
  13. [sarcasm]Was I right about the NFL wanting Brady over Rodgers?[/sarcasm] I'm glad I don't have an NFL team to root for. It's a shame that the outcomes of games are so often determined by the refs. And I don't mean that anything underhanded is going on. Refs have an incredibly tough job to do. They're 10 plus yards away from the action, it moves incredibly fast, and bodies block your view from stuff. Worst though, the rules for so many penalties are incredibly complex and haphazardly applied. Buck kept saying all game that the refs were letting things go, well if the rule book says those are penalties then they are penalties. The refs can't just change the rules because they feel like it.
  14. The Pirates were just about an embarrassment before they traded everyone. Spending money to tread water is stupid.
  15. That's odd. Mine is a stickler for the flu vaccine. If I haven't had it yet for my annual fall appointment, he orders one for me and I get it before I leave the clinic. Getting the common flu can be terrible when you're a Type 1. The one time I got it several years ago my BG counts were all over the place. If my doctor did that I'd drop them in a heartbeat. My last two Dr's I've had are amazing. Very hands off and just sit and listen and ask me what I'd like to do. Everyone before that was so controlling. I'd only go once a year and that was because I had to to get my prescriptions renewed.
  16. That's interesting. I'm type 1 myself. Just had a doctor appointment yesterday and it wasn't even brought up. I did do the automated sign-up through my clinic's website, and filled out the form listing my issues in regards to qualifying. I too just had an appointment with my endocrinologist last week, and asked about it, and he couldn't really give me much more information than "keep calling". I am honestly extremely surprised I got a call. That would be my suggestion to you as well ... keep calling. If it helps, I am getting mine through Marshfield Clinic. I'm not interested in getting it yet. I just thought he might have said something about it. I can't be too surprised though as he's never brought up the flu shot either that I never get.
  17. That's interesting. I'm type 1 myself. Just had a doctor appointment yesterday and it wasn't even brought up.
  18. With Brees retiring and the Panthers and Falcons not looking to be very good anytime soon that division is the Bucs for the next couple years.
  19. https://www.reuters.com/article/uk-health-coronavirus-safrica-variant-idUSKBN29Q0SK The stuff I've been reading the past couple days has cast doubt on how effective the current vaccine will be against the South African variant. But what the hell do we know about anything anymore? Tomorrow the news will probably say the South African variant gives you immunity to hiccups.
  20. The two sides were reportedly very close to an agreement, but Miami backed out due to concerns about Brees’ shoulder. Instead, they traded a 2nd round draft pick for Daunte Culpepper who started 4 games for the Dolphins then got hurt. The shoulder, yup, that's what it was. I don't even know what Miami looked like at the time for talent or coaches but it probably doesn't turn out as well for him as it did in New Orleans. The stars all seemed to align for him once he got there.
  21. It is a catch-22. When the federal government makes all the decisions, they can't tailor the needs of each individual state that vary greatly. People would complain that the decision doesn't meet their needs. If they hand down the power to states and they aren't competent or ready to take it, people complain. Hopefully, we won't get enough "practice" to be good at this. It's almost like communication and building out a plan would've been useful over the past 6 months. Everyone just passed the buck to everyone else and assumed someone else would figure it out. As another poster said, this isn't just a government thing but even the private sector and anywhere you have multiple levels of management. Of course, most people are going to blame the feds and the person who was in charge at the time but the US is not a country where you can take a one size fits all approach. The way California handles it's vaccines would be in no way the same that Montana would. Heck, same would apply at the county level too. Milwaukee County and Iron County would have vastly different needs.
  22. Wasn't Brees suppose to sign with Miami but something changed his mind at the last minute?
  23. Wasn't that trade deemed horrible for the Cubs at the time? I don't think what's happened since or what what will happen in the future has changed that.
  24. This should be a good deal for about 2 years and then turn horrible. He'll turn 32 this year and I can't imagine playing CF on that turf will be great for his health, especially once he hits his mid to late 30's.
  25. Packers/Chiefs happened over 50 years ago. I doubt the majority of NFL fans could tell you who played the first Super Bowl. I haven't seen anyone mention that the Super Bowl is in Tampa Bay. Brady leading the first team to a Super Bowl in their home stadium is a huge story. Rodgers is a great QB but Brady's Q Score blows ARod's out of the water. If the NFL could figure out a way to make it Brady/Rodgers in the Super Bowl they would but they'll take Brady 10 times out of 10.
