    If he spins the ball he doesn’t miss 1) We don't know he doesn't miss if he spins the ball 2) You don't publicly berate your ST mates like that regardless. My goodness, it's not like they completely botched the snap and hold. It's just a really bad look. It read like what you're saying, Mason absolved himself of blame for the miss.

    And Crosby screams at his punter and holder on their way off the field. Great look.
  3. adambr2
    And Mason gets us nothing.

    Love looks absolutely terrible. That drive was all Dillon.
  5. adambr2
    Great tackling fellas. Awful job by Gary.
  6. adambr2
    Douglas held Hill and still couldn't stop him.
  7. adambr2
    Nice soft tackling on 4th and 1.
  8. adambr2
    I hope Love looks a lot better than that the rest of the game because he did not even resemble an NFL quarterback on his first possession.

    STOP returning kicks out of the endzone. STOP.

    Might be technically true, but for those of us who work weekends and had to be up at 4:15, it definitely mattered.

    Does anyone ever really feel like King is missed at all when he's out? Always feels like his replacement is at worst a lateral move and at best an upgrade.

    Well....yes. Such is life with COVID. Want to eat at this restaurant? Disclose vaccination status. Want to fly on this airline or work for this company? Disclose vaccination status. Working for the NFL is no different, the vaccinated have completely different health and safety protocols than the unvaccinated. In an ideal world it would be wonderful if every aspect of our health information could be completely confidential; in the real world that is simply not realistic if one expects to participate in activities that could pose a risk to the health and safety of others.

    Allow me to ask why it bothers you? The August statement worked perfectly; it stopped people from asking the types of questions that were directed at people like Kirk Cousins and Cole Beasley, while likewise avoiding any Kyrie Irving-like cancellation, personal or professional. The league and the team all knew his status. It worked perfectly? Quite the contrary, I would say it made the situation about as bad as it possibly could have been. Beasley and Cousins at least just owned their position and moved on. No one cares about Cole Beasley's vaccination status anymore, and no one probably even remembers Cousins'. Which was essentially an inevitable event particularly for an unvaccinated individual with a large amount of close contacts.

    Bucks have blown a 21 point first half lead at home against the Knicks and now trail by double digits in the 4th quarter.

    It's ok to offer love and support to Ruggs (like Derek Carr did). It's not ok to downplay what Ruggs did as just a young and dumb mistake. (like Toney did).
  17. adambr2
    Why not? He'll be a 30-year-old who is playing for a potential big, long-term contract. The guy came to camp in better shape than he ever has this year, and ended up having a very good season both offensively and defensively likely because of that. That same motivation will be there as he plays under what is essentially a 1-year deal in 2022. Because it would be an aberration compared to most of his seasons in a long career.

    Agreed, that seems like a really bad allocation of resources even for one year. You better have it on awfully good authority that he's going to decline if you're going to make him a QO. Castellanos is likely looking at $20+ million per year for at least 4 years. Is he that much of a better bet to live up to that sort of deal than Avi would on a 1-year qualifying offer? I think Castellanos is quite a bit better bat, yes. Castellanos has had one season under an .800 OPS since 2015 and that was the weird 2020 season, Avi has been over .800 only two seasons in his career which includes this season. Castellanos kind of has career numbers skewed by his first 3 seasons where he clearly took some time to develop. I think those years are clearly the outlier of his career and since then he's been a really consistently good bat whereas Avi has always been a bit more hit and miss. With the DH likely coming to the NL I'd definitely commit longer term to Nick's bat. One year on Avi wouldn't be the absolute end of the world on a QO but I wouldn't be a fan and am not counting on him to replicate in '22 what he did in '21.

    This is a logical argument that I can get behind. In fact, I think something like this should probably be expected. We aren't going to see a full-on "throw caution to the wind" type offseason, but I fully expect 2-3 moves that could be construed as "big" that will likely raise the payroll. I don't even know what "This is so easy it's not even funny" even means, though. Baseball economics are far from easy. Yeah, I definitely agree with the "so easy it's not even funny" being totally untrue. We don't know where Castellanos wants to play, we don't know how many years he might get, we have no way of knowing if 3/66 gets it done. That said, if it was enough, I'd have no problem making that deal (obviously isn't my coin). But if we can afford a nearly 20M QO on Avi which we're considering, we can afford 22M for 3 years on Nick.

    ...and that line of thinking right there is a problem. Yeah...I mean there is a line where baserunning and defense can't overcome a bad enough bat. By this logic Keon Broxton should have still been with the team all these years.
  22. adambr2
    Don Majikowski is the obvious one. I'd guess Mike Tomzcak and Anthony Dilweg for the other two ?
  23. adambr2
    Yeah I don't recall anyone being excited about Luke Maile lol.
  24. adambr2
    When I first heard this story my first thought was that he'd get some leniency. By most accounts not a bad character guy, likely first offense, didn't try to flee the scene or anything. Still horrible, but mitigating factors in his favor. Now that more details have come out, nope. Driving blitzed at 150+. He was a death sentence to anyone who was unlucky to be in the wrong place at the wrong time that night. They'll throw the book at him, and they should.

    Pina is a glove-like fit on this team as a backup catcher, and I hope he stays. I didn't even realize he had enough service time to be a free agent. Not bad for a guy who didn't really have an MLB career until he was almost 30.
