  1. If you are going to break a leg, the fibula is the best bone to break! I have had an unstable fibula for years.
  2. Anybody who talks about using spreadsheets to do sophisticated analysis is probably an amateur! 😄
  3. They need highly recognizable personalities to capture the attention of a very restless audience which can not stay on one channel for more than a few minutes. Hopefully, they'll hang around long enough to watch a commercial after telling their buddies their a-rod and big papi stories.
  4. Simulation would probably be as good at determining a true champion as having playoffs. Or they could just use the regular season results. They have playoffs because they are entertaining and thus profitable. As for your other point, all teams use analytics now. Just because some teams have more of a reputation for it doesn't mean they use it more. It could be that some teams don't talk about it because they don't want to tip their hand.
  5. Best shape of his life Cabrera mashes in Spring Bicep strain in May
  6. Believe nothing of what you hear and only half of what you see.
  7. The top two shortstops, Correa and Seager, both have problems with durability. Both are going to get 8+ years for huge money. The next tier - Story and Semien - will be be a little cheaper (although still expensive). They have been more durable but aren't as good and Semien is over 30. I won't mind if the Tigers take chance on any of those guys, but if they are going to spend like a middle market team, the latter two make more sense. Baez scares me with his ridiculous strikeout rate. Simmons is going to be 32 next year and I would stay away from a 32 year old defensive specialist.
  8. Bigglesworth peed in the parking lot last year. That was embarrassing, which I think is part of the reason he never comes here anymore. You can't really fault him though. The Rule V can cause one to get unduly excited.
  9. After the signing of Baddoo last year, I am anticipating this party even more than I usually do.
  10. You'd have be pretty stupid to not realize that Trump was fully on board with the insurrection. However, I am confident that nothing will ever happen to Trump and those around him. And noting will ever turn his supporters against him.
  11. That would be as bummer. It's all been one of my favorite weeks of the year.
  12. I also get nervous when people brag about their guns or wear tee shirts promoting gun ownership or anything like that. I don't like it when I am on an internet hiking site and somebody mentions being afraid of bears (or something) and al the gun owners immediately tell that person they need to get a gun without knowing anything about that person's background. Is having a gun a serious responsibility or not?
  13. The lawsuits were thrown out because they were stupid. The election wasn't even very close and there is no evidence of widespread fraud that would have changed the election. It's just your guy being a big baby because he didn't win. Also, his lawyers are all idiots. With all his money (supposedly) and power, he should have had access to the best lawyers in the country and instead he surrounds himself with incompetent morons. Your guy is a complete charlatan and you guys just keep believing everything he says.
  14. It was antifa disguised as conservatives.
  15. No on base, no defense, hits for power versus RHP. He'd be another Marcus Thames which would be OK, not great. I doubt they are going to go after an outfielder.
  16. I don't follow politics as much as most people here do, but there were dozens of lawsuits from November through December and they were all denied. Even the Trump selected Supreme Court rejected them. There's nothing there. The vote went through all the processes according to the constitution and they found nothing. Trump was just too immature to admit that he lost the election and now he's making millions off his fake protests. And all his supporters have fallen for it.
  17. Political parties are power hungry! Who knew?
  18. I don't think De La Rosa is worthy of acronym status.
  19. No doubt. I never cease to be amazed by what people will believe.
  20. MTG brings no value at all to politics. She is an ignorant jerk, an absolute disgrace.
