  1. I'm looking for a high end starter on a short term deal. Obviously there are risks on guys returning from TJ... but those are the 1st two options I would consider... and then be hunting for 30's year old guys that are still pitching at a high level but could possibly be had on a 1/2/3-year deal (no consideration for anything over 3 years)... Candidates? At the top of my list: Verlander - 1 year prove-it Syndergaard - 1 year prove-it Alex Wood - can he be had on a short-term deal? 2 or 3 years? Collin McHugh - can he be had on a short-term deal? 2 or 3 years? Robbie Ray - is probably going to get himself a 5 or 6 year deal for big money, so I think he's out of consideration... But I think those would be the top 5 guys on my list...
  2. Are we afraid to chase Syndergaard? And if so, why?
  3. They gave him $25 Billion (PS: that was a BI-PARTISAN $25B because Republicans were all for it, and Dems agreed) and Trump turned it down because Steven Miller told him to. Oh yeah, it helped out 250,000 "Dreamers" so fuck them, right Coulter & Miller and your ilk? But... oh wait, that means no $25 Billion for "The Wall" because 250K Dreamers... Makes perfect white trash bigoted sense, doesn't it?
  4. This is about as close to accurate as is possible. The only thing I would change is that if both BBB and Infrastructure had passed at least a month before the election then VA would not have been lost. It's as much about the bickering and non-passage of legislation as it is about a want list. I am assuming your want list is Infrastructure and not necessarily BBB?
  5. I think Miley is fool's gold at his age. Not interested, I'd like to find better. Now, if that were Tyler Mahle, I'd say lets take a shot to try and get him. Alas... tis ain't.
  6. The few times I've watched him he is too easily getting knocked off balance and losing the puck all too often. So he still needs some improvements, IMO, in the areas I outlined...
  7. I believe there is a simple solution for the Dem's... Quit looking dysfunctional and pass the infrastructure and BBB bills, don't stumble over raising the debt level, etc... Look competent, pass meaningful legislation, give the economy a big pop... And the votes will come in for Dems. IMO.
  8. Nobody thinks 0-17 is fine for development. Except for getting a #1 pick. But I'm pretty certain the "fine" with 0-17 crowd thinks that 0-17 is... Meaningless. Not "fine for development"... meaningless.
  9. See the ball. Hit the ball.
  10. Yep.
  11. Penei Sewell? Still at LT until if/ when Decker pushes him back to RT... But at this rate... might just never happen with Wally "Pipp" Decker.
  12. After hearing from Motown Bombers... I'm eager to see... Choices.
  13. As for Apple... A different kind of knowledge...
  14. No... the apple is knowledge. And an "all-knowing" god hates that common folk gain knowledge. If they gain knowledge... they know that "god" is just a man-made folk-story to explain the world, death, weather phenomena, etc... "god" wants people stupid and compliant. Therefore an apple from the tree of knowledge is anathema. Also known as a "sin".
  15. If you want to talk about an explosive trade... How about D'Andre Swift?
  16. Very interesting. Surprised that's the way Blashill decided to go, but... Very interesting.
  17. Rasmussen needs to look like that: stronger on his skates, stronger control of the puck, quicker reactions...
  18. No such thing as Babylonian paganism... did you mean Babylonian polytheism? Also... Babylonian polytheism is from the original Sumerian polytheism, which predates Babylon by about 2,500 years... Sumer - the birthplace of civilization.
  19. The Village is like his super hero movies: Unbreakable-Split-Glass. These aren't comic-book heroes, but an attempt by M. Night to spin stories about "real people". They're not real people of course, but they are made up stories that make it seem like they are real people. Like... the Village. Oh... the horror, the horror.
  20. It was a horror movie. It didn't turn into something else, it turned into something more. The rest of your two posts are a bunch of gobbledygook.
  21. Aha! I haven't followed all their issues so... I guess I had the general story... But I didn't have those specifics so, thank you.
  22. Wow! Everything just lined up so nicely here...!
  23. Tesla is not a fraud. But it is built on public subsidies, if that's what your referring to... However, as G2 noted, he's had little to no competition... And that's about to change. As soon as there are dozens of competitors out there, and there will be dozens (not all winners)... I believe Tesla's stock will tank.
  24. PS: Why would you punch a director for your own lack of ability to comprehend?
  25. Yeah... it wasn't a con at all. It was a conservative group of people trying to hide from modern times and live like "in olden days"... And using scary tactics to try and scare everyone into line, and away from exploring back into the modern world. I got it. It was a cool story. I don't think tater "got it".
