    draft lottery night! the wings are currently slotted 8th, have a very small chance to move up to 1 or 2, and can pick no lower than 10th. prediction: they somehow end up picking 11th.

    i get less grief in the abortion thread. lol.
  8. buddha
    it also allows them to placate their crazy base while not actually passing something wildly unpopular like a nationwide abortion ban. they can say "we tried all year long to pass the ban but those darn democracts just filibuster everything...grrr..."

    i will continue to beat that strawman until he's fired. and then i'll bitch about him for years the way i still bitch about stan van gundy, mid 2000s ken holland, and bob quinn.

    exactly. why is it some badge of honor that he came to the party five years after everyone else? i mean, its good that they are finally on the bandwagon, but he doesnt deserve praise for it. i think most of that praise comes from beat writers who need/want access.

    i thought knuckle dragger was a universal put down? calling someone a neaderthal. i guess it might have ape connotations so that's where the sensitivity comes from.

    not sure why bultman thinks ras is a better skater than elmer.

    you would need over 60 republican senators for that to happen.

    people in the thread said he "would" be blamed. i have no idea if he will be or not. i was just commenting my displeasure with his boss.

    dont want barry trotz.

    no. gallant is a quick fix guy who burns out quickly. and im not giving up assets for that. if he wanted gallant - and if gallant wanted to come here - they could have done it last year.

    they only have so many talented players, and a lot of them are hurt. i choose to blame the guys who acquired that lack of talent for the last 8 years. i do think they'll get better as the year goes on, just like last year. if they can get healthy. one would expect tork to get better. greene will likely struggle once he gets in, but should at least be a defensive upgrade.

    one thing is for sure....when that happens, it will all be hinch's fault.

    del is mad because his boyfriend luka has been exposed as a defensive sieve in the playoffs this year.

    or you could hire a general manager who can acquire good talent in the draft outside the top 5 picks. that would help.
  21. buddha
    and you think they're slumping because of something the manager did? so the avila apologists say that he should be retained because of the new analytics and development tools avila has put into place (that they only know about because avila let the press write stories about it like it was something new and that the rest of the league hadnt been doing for years). yet, when that supposedly great new analytics tool doesnt produce results, its the manager's fault? i understand some of you will never excuse hinch from the astros situation, but he took this same garbage talent to 75+ wins last year. the fact that you wishcasted this team into contention this year is on you and your belief in the media hype. not on reality. avila had been in charge for 8 years of the worst years in tigers franchise history. there is very little difference between avila and randy smith. when chris illitch wakes up, he'll realize that and hopefully hire someone who can do the job othe than draft the consensus top player #1 in the draft.

    how about the guy who has been in charge of player acquisition for 8 years and the farm system is still largely bare other than top 10 picks? can we fire that guy instead of the guy who managed a world series team?

    stars do what they want.

    i wonder if this helps or hurts the gop with hispanics in texas?
  25. buddha
    we'll see what happens in a couple cycles. you could be right.
