    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Probably not necessary to even list a second runner up. I mean that dude had a near -1 WAR…

    Luckily Sling is owned by Dish..,because Dish cannot simply lose ESPN and all the other Disney owned channels.

    I am guessing part of the logic is placing these where gaps are going to exist. Large population areas are going to have the demand to build them on their own. I skimmed through it and it looked like Wausau was skipped too. Of course they already have 8 Tesla chargers and I think they are set to get another 8 non Tesla fast chargers at WalMart.

    Annnnnnd Disney and Dish/Sling couldn’t make an agreement for ESPN is gone. Sigh, maybe time to go back to cutting the cord and cutting the subscription.

    Sammy’s is the best in my opinion.

    I remember hearing about it when I lived towards Chicago...but most people I knew made fun of it. To be fair, I don't think they ever actually had it. I think their pizza ego was just as deep as a Lou Malnati's sausage deep dish.
  13. MrTPlush
    Thanks for that. None of the news articles I saw listed I-39 nor did it link the document you did. Seemed illogical to leave out that area.

    MrTPlush replied to homer's topic in Off-Topic Forum

    Alright, I thought Little Ceasers was the worst pizza I have ever had (at least when you don't order it fresh)...but the Pizza Hut Detroit Style? Wow, absolutely disgusting. First off the cheese didn't go to the edge and crisp, which is probably the best part of a Detroit style (I wouldn't actually know I have never had a real one). The worst part, the sauce. The premium red sauce is the worst sauce I have ever had on a pizza. Pizza Hut tried 8 different sauces before coming the the conclusion that nasty stuff was the best choice. It was as bad as the city it is named after. Real Detroit style cannot possibly be that bad.

    Does anyone have an example of how we are going to better spend $8mil? Like a specific example that would be a one year or maybe two year deal? Not to mention Wong is really just a solid all around hitter, not just mashing homers with a 30% K rate. I am not doubting it, but people act like finding an upper .700 OPS with no long term commitment is easy peasy for $8mil or so. Wong would be a big offensive loss and it wouldn't be cheap replacing that offense. The lazy answer is. "Oh, well we can spend it on bullpen help.", so outside of that...how would one hypothetically spend that money? A lot of people mention getting a 3B, so who will even be available?

    The plans for the EV charging locations from the federal funding have been announced. These are fast charging stations, not Level 2 stations. Many interstates and areas around Milwaukee/Madison, however some notable Northwoods locations will soon see better EV support. Hopes are they can start construction in the spring. The bolded ones below are some of the major corridors to or in the Northwoods. Interstate 41 Interstate 43 Interstate 90 Interstate 94 Interstate 535 U.S. Highway 8 U.S. Highway 41 U.S. Highway 53 U.S. Highway 151 Part of U.S. Highway 2 Part of U.S. Highway 29 Part of U.S. Highway 51 Part of U.S. Highway 141 The intention is to have a minimum 4 car charger every 50 miles. Not sure what 'part of' really means. May mean they are spaced out much more than that or one part of the highway may be entirely ignored. This is honestly really nice from a tourism standpoint. Places like Minneapolis/Chicago area EVs are becoming very popular and they certainly are a huge chunk of northern Wisconsin tourism. Interesting I-39 is getting completely ignored.

    Yah, the Dish is literally still on the roof from a previous owner and the long cable cord still attached to it running down and into the house. I figured I could do exactly as you did and just attach an antenna to the base from the dish. I imagine I could still get AirTV and utilize it for TVs that don't have direct hookups near them? My 'mancave' has two hookups, but neither is anywhere near where my TVs are/will be. For the life of me I have no idea why they put them where they are...just dumb. It wouldn't be that hard to add some, but I have enough wire and walls to mess around with.

    I figured out the rain downside of the indoor antenna pretty quick. NBC got a little shotty when it started raining a decent amount, but it still played pretty well. Though...my rain was probably nowhere near what you are referring to. Guessing mine would crap out for NBC at that point. I guess I can't complain regardless. The NBC tower is 55 miles away and my antenna is not pointing that direction at all. It does make me rethink the AirTV concept though if rain is that problematic. Realistically I already have a cable running to the roof for a Dish...so doing a rooftop antenna wouldn't actually be that inconvenient for me to do. That being said my significant other probably needs some dumb channel not on sling so my cheap plan will probably be foiled once she moves in. Eventually I will have to ask her for her non-negotiable....channels.?

    The Phillies just got done playing a likely 90+ win team for two games and what is possibly a 100+ win team the Braves. Now they get to go play crummy teams. Honestly, we should not even be in this situation. We could have used bullpen help before we traded Hader...then we traded him and didn't really do much to replace him. The last month the bullpen has really let us down on numerous occasions, some of which they were handed the ball with a decent lead.

    The Brewers really blew a golden opportunity yesterday. That was the last of the Phillies playing a team with anything to play for. Now they play total garbage teams and then face the Astros who will have the #1 seed clinched well beforehand and likely resting guys to some degree. HOWEVER: 1) The Brewers schedule is light too 2)The Brewers will be at home, where they have been better. 3) The Phillies, who have been stellar at home, will be entirely on the road. In my opinion, the Brewers blew their chance. Expecting the Phillies to go 5-5 against a bunch of teams that care nothing about winning regular season games and 2/3 are garbage on top of that...good luck. If that is what you are depending on, pack your bag for the offseason.

    Well, unless the Braves comeback after their rain delay ends, that should just about wrap up the season.
