That's my name too

It's 8:22..................WHY NO NEWS ? WHY ?!?!?!?!?!?!

♫ Johnny, go get your gun Cause the Commies are in our hemisphere today Ivan, go fly your Mig Cause the Yankee Imperialists have come to play ♫

Hundreds of Q-turds are gathering outside Ford's Theater in Washington waiting for Robert Todd Lincoln to arrive which will make Trump become Jesus.

Wow, they didn't give that very long. Guess we better win it by 2023, eh?

The Tigers and Carlos Correa are close to finalizing an agreement, but it might be held up by Michigan State President Samuel Stanley.

The announcement will come tomorrow. The press conference will be 11am Monday with Correa, E-Rod and Zack Greinke (I'm going big here)

Boy, the Me Too movement would be destroying Squints for his pool stunt now.

Sometimes its all about the timing.

Will they do a deferred contract like the Nationals did with Scherzer?

it won't mean a thing. he'll be a hero to those nutjobs.

Breaking into the Capitol. Once he went in there, it was a violent act. Just like someone looting a CVS, even if they didn't break the windows themselves. He had no business being in there and every single one of them who went into that building that day committed a violent act.

Yes, most violent criminals are mentally ill or mentally damaged by neglect. And what he did on January 6th was violent.

The asshole who murdered our friend at Virginia Tech was mentally ill too. If he hadn't ended his own life, he'd deserve to be in prison now too.

Yeah it matters, maybe why he didn't get 10 years. He DID commit a violent crime. Anyone that broke into the Capitol that day committed a violent crime. Tired of excuses for these criminals. He travelled there of his own free will and took part, mentally challenged or not, that's on him. I have little to no sympathy for those who attempted to overthrow our democracy and who would have killed our representatives if they had gotten to them. Every single one of those sons a bitches are mentally ill. Let Trump take 'em in. He could turn Mar-A-Lago in to a f**king hospital.

Does this mean he'll get out before January 2025? I don't like that. Not one bit. None of those fuckers should get out before January 21, 2025

I watched a video about Mike Magnante, who was just a few days from vesting his pension. The A's were not allowed to put him on an injury list if he wasn't really injured. He got screwed. There should have been something in place that considered how close he was. He still gets a pension, but not nearly the pension he'd have gotten if he had only stayed on the roster for another few days. That needs to be fixed. If companies can give people pensions early, mlb and mlbpa can do this.

I am sure there would be nuance added in. I think it will end up where there is no benefit to holding someone back over service time. I get why teams do it, but it might be keeping good players away from a game that needs more good players.

I think the service time rule will no longer exist after this coming work stoppage. Free Agency will be based on Age. They'll probably quarrel for 2 months alone on whether the age is 28 or 28.5 years at the date the new Free Agency cycle begins. So it won't have any influence on Greene and Tork.

Sorry, I should have said that I am expecting an 80-game season.

The Correa contract might be held up while the team finalizes an extension for AJ Hinch. I would imagine if they do get Correa, his relationship with Hinch would be a major reason why, and they'd want to avoid Hinch having that out clause after 2022 and committing 4 or 5 years to him. That could be part of a hold up too, if at deal is indeed already done.

According to Michael Balko on Twitter, one MLB insider says Correa to the Tigers is a 'Done Deal". I'm guessing..... 22 years, 1.6 Billion dollars

When does OBJ starting bitching? Thursday? Friday?

Mickey Lolich in 1971 - 376 innings, 45 starts, 29 complete games and he was a strikeout guy too. That's insane. Followed that year up with 327, 308, 308. Even at 35, after those 300+ years, he pitched 192 innings and had an ERA of 3.22 Then in 1976 Mark Fidrych had 24 complete games, 3 of them going 11 innings and they broke him.
