  1. Christian Yelich Contract Details, Salaries, & Earnings | Spotrac If anyone is wondering, we pay him till his 50th birthday. Woah
  2. NFL usually waits for the legal process to play out...but the Adams situation was on an NFL field and I don't think there is any debate on what happened. Due to the fact it happened on NFL time they probably will punish him before he finishes the legal process side of things. Kamara will eventually get suspended, if I had to guess.
  3. Adams was charged with assault, so pretty much a given at this point a suspension is coming. Don't think the NFL is going to let a player get away with assaulting a random crewmember on the field like that without missing at least a game. Not sure how suspensions work, but he may luck out that his base salary this year is only $3.5mil.
  4. When big-pharma takes welfare funds and then possibly helps Favre with his volleyball facility. To think we didn't get ripped off by pharma companies as is. The corruption in this entire ordeal is kind of amazing. Write checks and ask...erm, never ask questions later. Pharma company linked to Brett Favre made pitch for welfare funds (yahoo.com)
  5. So where is the risk? The buyer is gone, so what? Buyers come and go. You could scare them off for life and it won't matter. If you don't care if you move or not...it really doesn't mean much. You just stay home, problem solved. The only issue I could see is if you sit your house on the market for 6 months not caring if you move and then all of a sudden you have to move for some unexpected reason. Then your house recently failed to sell for half a year in a hot market and it is going to make people assume there are a bunch of issues with it. Though, even then, I can't imagine it being a huge hurdle once your realtor explains it to prospective buyers agents. Real risk is buying a house while still owning one and the purchase isn't contingent on your current house selling. That is a true mess and I have seen it play out a few times around me the last few years. People think their house will easily sell for what they expect and something quirky about the house makes it difficult. The entire concept is kind of dumb though. The odds someone "makes you move" is just not likely at all and not worth the hassle. Not sure where such a thing would happen...but probably not Wisconsin.
  6. At 35 he is, but what about 36? 37? maybe even 38? Renfroe is 31 and a one year deal. Him performing is a pretty darn safe bet. Abreu is old...really old. He won't be cheap and won't be had on a 1 year deal. It will take at least two and there is a fair chance it could take 3 years. Abreu maybe have one good year left in him before tanking production wise. We may not even get one passable year. 31 year old Renfroe = $11mil commitment 36+ year old Abreu = $35mil+ commitment Not saying it is right or wrong to go that route...but the financials aren't even close.
  7. 1) To be fair, the first step in trading one of our core players is acting like we don't want to trade them. 2) Trading a guy in the off season will have less effect on team chemistry versus the deadline. Guys have all offseason to get over it. That wasn't the case in July. I doubt they trade one of them...but it is impossible to really know. Any rumblings likely wouldn't happen till failed extension talks warm up the rumor mill.
  8. Well, I just don’t think Gard is that good. But that’s just the opinion of an outsider, not a Badgers fan. In football I can see wanting to keep a coach that will stick around and be loyal to the end of time…I just don’t think that really need to do that for basketball. It’s not like Wisconsin basketball recruits well and the coach leaving would be a disaster. Also much easier for teams to rebound after losing a coach in basketball. I just think Badgers basketball has way more potential than Gard is getting out of them.
  9. I mean…no. If you have zero interest in moving why would you? You could offer me 20% over the value of my house and I wouldn’t sell it to you. Maybe for 50% over I might. I think ‘make me move’ is kind of dumb…not sure it really works nor is it anywhere near common. Not sure what it has to do with your comment though. You said it was risky in this market unless you had a place lined up already. I just don’t really think that is the case.
  10. I’d argue they could be more likely to trade their All Star catcher or their top prospect…if they were to trade anyone. Especially since Kirk isn’t even arby eligible. Really aren’t helping a top catching prospect forcing him to be a back up…and he has no clear path to starting as is even in that situation. Either be happy you have a star catcher pre arby already or trade him for a cargo ship return and take your chances in the young guy. Really…they should just go with Kirk and trade away the prospect. Imo He may be worth more than Narvaez, but at face value it isn’t that huge of a difference…and a far cry from commanding a Top 5 or so prospect.
  11. I really doubt that. Omar Narvaez took our #24 prospect and a comp pick. Narvaez was just as good (in actual start PAs) and honestly a better track record. Jansen has an eye popping statline...but that was in only 200 ABs. That simply won't commany a top prospect. Irrelevant though. Great target if he was on a crummy team. However, he went to the postseason. Why on earth would the Jays trade him? I get he is the #2 guy...but I just don't see much motivation.
  12. Ha....yah, this list could be pretty epic next year. Or even more depressing because there are actually expectations and if they flop it will be real sad to look at. The 'shrug of the shoulders' effort down the stretch was pretty sad to watch. Live or die with real contributors blowing chunks is one thing...but Alexander. I mean, that seemed like prime opportunity to throw crap at the wall and figuring the alternative can't be any worse.

  14. Yelich's salary is also wrong. $4mil is deferred...so his should be $22mil. Seems trivial, but a few salary errors quickly snowballs. It is a sweet tool though! Fun to play around with and it makes things way easier than messing around in an excel file.
  15. So Adams is having such a blast playing with the Raiders he now randomly assaults people while walking off the field. Then posts some lame response on Twitter about how he instantly felt horrible...even though just proceeded to walk past the guy. Hope he feels good on his unpaid vacation.
  16. Alright, did my best MLB: The Show team for fun. I would not actually do this...but you know, why not humor myself. Realistically I would probably three team trade in a way to get my preferred starting pitcher and flashy bullpen arm after trading Burnes. Maybe chase after a 3B and get rid of Urias. I didn't have anyone in mind though. Also stuck random salaries into the bullpen as I didn't want to chase after actual names. For $4mil and $2.5mil I should find decent guys. Woodruff was extended (hence the pay boost) and Adames will be traded after 2023. Slight boost in LF offensively next year. Really just wanted to see how realisticly competitive I could make a team while adding Judge.? Cause I don't know about anyone else, but this is exactly what I do on MLB: The Show.
  17. The hat was great for what they were going for. I wouldn't wear it...but then again, I wouldn't wear any sports team hat. If you don't like the hat, chances are you are a good 2x the age of the intended target audience.
  18. What an annoying number of dudes set to make $2mil-$4mil. That could be messy if they start looking for ways to save money. Renfroe is a total no brainer. That kind of production with a one year commitment? You take it 10/10 times. Whether one wants to trade him to use that money elsewhere is a different story.
  19. I think it is an Aaron Rodgers AND MLF thing. However, I definitely think it is way more the fault of MLF/coaching staff. We can nitpick a few plays here and there that we assume were the decision of Rodgers...but let's be honest. Most of the plays are coming from the sideline and the gameplan is kind of on the coaching staff too. For every nitpicked play of Rodgers I am willing to bet he bails the Packers out of two plays in return. I fail to believe the offense consistently lays an egg (which is a massive issue since the current coach came here) because one of the Top 5 QBs in the game's history. That seems like a biiiig stretch. On another note it is slightly frustrating watching the Chiefs lose Tyrek Hill, but replacing him with JuJu/MVS. We replaced Adams with keeping 50 year old Cobb and a pair of rookies.
  20. I wouldn't call it risky. You can get all the offers in the world and not have to accept them. If someone sends in a crazy good offer, you can then just go try to find a house at that point. Pretty much no realtor is going to contractually obligate you to accepting a list price+ offer. Though if you are going to go such a route it is best to let your realtor know so you don't tick them off and make them feel like they are wasting their time.
  21. Kolton Wong's buyout is only $2mil...so I don't know why it is $2.5mil unless I am missing something. Also, his salary should not automatically be $10mil then, it should be minus the dead money. You are double accounting for it.
  22. It isn’t a Tua issue, that was a new rule they did going into this year. It’s just taken this long for it finally get called in a disastrous way. This is the issue with adding more and more rules…especially one like this where you can accidentally land on a guy and it looks really no different than intentionally body slamming him. Im conflicted, because I think that new rule has been incredibly helpful keeping QBs healthy and on the field. Having 350 pound lineman body slamming defenseless QBs is just terrible for the game and the health of players. But then you do a slowmo replay and see the Chiefs player try to brace his fall and it looks like the worst call in history…but in the defense of the refs there is no way you can see that in real time and the Chiefs player most certainly put all his weight onto Carr. It’s hard to blame the refs, they are simply calling it how the NFL told them.
  23. A) The US is a young country and certainly so when you considered when it was colonized. Maybe it just wasn’t a focal point of a country being created in 1700. B) I don’t think Nationalism is determined by singing a song. Why don’t we base it on national flag underwear sales, I bet we are the best then. C) How many of these countries have massive religious values that the song relates to or is a communist/3rd world country that sings it three times a day to not go to jail or be executed behind a dumpster? People were ready to start a civil war because a guy kneeled during it. Do people have to sing to care about the song? Not trying to create kneeling argument (I don’t care if someone does), but certainly people care about the song then and about their country.
  24. Yah, having all three start is just a really poor idea. The odds that all of those guys are above average contributors is incredibly unlikely. 1 or even 2 of them will probably prove to not be worthy of a roster spot all year as rookies, better off just having all get a chance covering two of the spots and see who can hit.
  25. Probably not necessary to even list a second runner up. I mean that dude had a near -1 WAR…
