  1. MCS, Go to the liquor store and buy a lottery ticket.
  2. Longstaff and Keefe and white dudes from New England. If neither even get an interview then maybe JE3’s scoop is real.
  3. This is just fucking stupid.
  4. Agree you can find nice suburbs to live anywhere, but I don’t think they are the same all over. As get further West in places like Texas, Colorado, Nevada, Arizona, and California, the suburbs are generally a little different than the Midwest and East. They are newer, more cookie cutter residential communities built around a commerce area with the Target, Costco, and Home Depot and never ending modern strip malls. Move along 5 miles and there’s another new city with the same footprint. Not much differentiating between one place an another. That newer infrastructure usually means less undeveloped areas with natural woods and parks mixed in with residential tracts.
  5. Definitely agree if you like urban living in the city. No comparison between Chicago and Detroit. If you are a burbs person, there’s not that much difference between the two places. Probably better here if you are an outdoors person that likes boat, ski, fish, or hunt.
  6. You are missing out on the best follow on Twitter.
  7. Joey is a bullpen guy. Time for this starting thing to end
  8. I am very, very familiar with anxiety and it’s serious nature. Being in a team environment where people count on your performance isn’t conducive with an unpredictable condition like anxiety. Millions of Americans find a way to manage their episodes without the luxury of being able to walk away from their work responsibilities. If Austin Meadows is unable to figure out how to control his episodes then he may need to find a different career outside professional baseball. It’s a tough spot to be in for sure.
  9. Clawbacks happen all of the time in business and I’ve yet to see anyone that wasn’t pissed off when having to write the check back.
  10. Maybe this is a generational thing. I don’t blame Barry & Calvin for flipping the bird at WCF and the god forsaken franchise that he built. It’s not liked they demanded a trade and insisted to go somewhere else, they were just done after spending a decade here and it destroyed their will to want to keep playing pro football.
  11. In fairness, they could’ve gifted him the money back in the day but instead chose to ask for it back. There was no problem had they done that as other teams had done. That’s why the situation exists in the first place. He did technically retire due to injuries even if he probably could have still played. They still can pay him now but need to sign him up to some bs promotional contract where they pay him large sums of money for not a lot of work. He seemed to be against this a few years back thinking that they should just pay him without him doing anything. That was his misunderstanding of the rules and that option doesn’t exist to just pay him. It seems like now he’s figured out they can use a workaround to make him whole.
  12. He’s a great foundation piece at a valuable position. They have a great opportunity next year to go after a QB in what appears to be a much stronger and deeper QB draft. I think more teams should be thinking this way rather than fawning over this very average group of QB’s.
  13. As I said a few weeks back, it made no sense for the titans not to extend him.
  14. We’ll need that for those slow days in May and June after the draft and before training camp
  15. We really get in to some meaningless discussions during the deep days of the off-season.
  16. You just described Christian Gonzalez as well.
  17. I prefer Witherspoon. More polished, experienced, and productive right now. He could step in and start from day 1. Big 10 corners are allowed to be more physical than in the Pac-12 where they call PI for breathing too close. I also like that he has prior experience with Kerby as that can only be a help for them.
  18. Sadly both of these entities are not currently represented by either of their parties.
  19. I think it means the NFL wants Lions at KC to be a prime time game. That wouldn’t happen if it were in Germany.
  20. I think he’s a better prospect than LeBron.
  21. Not quite. Similar play but this one had a much higher degree of difficulty. Meadows didn’t pick up the ball right away and wasn’t able to get himself in position. A good LF would’ve caught that ball without having to leave his feet and the game would’ve been over.
  22. Great two games. Tork, Greene, and Big V solid and that terrible looking bullpen was really good. Lets sweep it up tomorrow.
  23. Would love to see Manning dazzle tonight. He had some very strong outings last year and just needs to be consistent with it. I’m not quite as confident in the Tigers bats getting to Framber
