  1. That sounds like a lot of work. can you do it for me?
  2. What I like about this is that I can criticize Gute from all angles. One, tying as the youngest team with the Jets is not good company. Two, Seahawks prove you can win with a young team, so youth isn't an excuse.
  3. I have no evidence to back it up, but I think that we will see fewer upsets in general. Mid-major teams, that in the past would have a team of 3 and 4-year players, are being picked apart. Imagine Steph Curry today. Would he stay at Davidson for three years? He scored 21 pts per game as a freshman! He wouldn't have been around for that sophomore year where he torched Gonzaga, Georgetown, Wisconsin and Kansas for 128 points in four games.
  4. Please accept my apology for posting a picture of you without your knowledge. I know my daughters want right of approval for all pictures before they are posted on social media. I just hope this isn't a "CEO caught cheating on a Kiss Cam" moment for you. And how could you take the heat sitting there? I think the brown patches seen on the berm are from other fans melting on the spot.
  5. Another perfect day! Play ball!
  6. I will be at the game tonight. Can't wait!
  7. I don't generally feel bad for the Raiders, but they are really in a corner. Committed to a bunch of free agents in the interim. Maybe they shouldn't have moved, but it sure seems like the Ravens aren't being honest.
  8. Oh my, he hit that a mile. Apparently no unwritten rules to worry about because he stayed in the batter’s box a long, long time. Did a little salute as he headed out. I like Cruz. Maybe not on my team, but dang, his highs are HIGH.
  9. He has been "set back". Thank goodness they didn't call it a setback. That would be dramatic.
  10. setback noun [ C ] something that happens that delays or prevents a process from developing What's extremely dramatic about that? And that doesn't address that the video mentioned a wrist issue with Priester, not just bringing him up slowly. What term would you use?
  11. Thanks. Feels like a silly distinction. Like how many bench press reps a guy can do at the combine, as opposed to how he can play in a game.
  12. They seemed to lose their composure, and I think Boyd just got his shot in the lane blocked again. For all the talk of Wisconsin tempo, it was Oregon that got the Badgers to speed up at the individual level. They fumbled so many balls it had to be concern for the quick hands of Oregon. I mean, THAT was a 3-13 Big10 team?
  13. This is gold, if you haven't seen it. It's about 3.5 minutes long.
  14. "For teams looking to balance their roster, add a dependable right-handed bat, or inject youth and energy into the infield, Bohm represents a valuable, though short-term, asset due to his arbitration control through 2026." Youth and energy? Bohm? Dude is 29. He would be one of the older guys on the Brewers. And I had to laugh at "arbitration control through 2026." Whew, I was worried his contract expired July 1 and they'd have to renegotiate in the middle of the season (That's sarcasm, btw). The author, Ryan Shea, seems to propose trades for their fantasy value. A quick scan of some of his other mock trades shows that he mentions fantasy in all of them. Plus his profile says he is a fan of all things New York.
  15. You are much more of an optimist than I am. A player who hasn't finished a season healthy since what, 2022? is telling us a slow ramp up to the season is no big deal. I agree that it's good to be cautious because the Brewers need him healthy, and I think the Brewers have to consider load management so that they have some pitching left in the playoffs. However, this team suffers injuries that seem to be no big deal that end up lasting weeks and even months. Chourio's hamstring "tickle" cost him a month, DL Hall's two to three weeks for a lat strain ended up being months, Bukauskas missed the whole year. There are other examples of injuries that are characterized as minor that end up being more than that.
  16. I’ll just end this. I was in no way serious.
  17. The rest of my post was okay for you? But the Ortiz taek was a bridge too far? Interesting take yourself.
  18. I like the uni as well. The Rays are wearing the same color combo today. Early thoughts at the top of the first: Joey Ortiz at DH really cleans up the logjam in the infield. I predict 120 starts for him there during the season. Classic Brewers rally. Walk, throw into CF on a steal attempt, infield hit, walk, hbp to score the run. Who needs power? Bases loaded, no one out in the top of the first allows the IGT sniping to begin. I'll start. Murphy's new contract has ruined him. He's a shell of himself as a manager. 1-0 Brewers without a ball hit out of the infield. I'm taking the over on wins.
  19. Not to mention that if you earn $5 million, $10 million, that's generational money as well. Maybe not as many generations, and some of your grandkids may have to go to public school, but it's still generational. It doesn't have to be $150 mil and up to qualify as generational. That said, I'd be no different if I was in that position. Probably.
