  1. I guess I can take Jim’s word for all that. I thought maybe you were suggesting that Leyland had made positive contributions to the organization's current approach to roster management, player advancement, and development.
  2. Victory from the jaws of defeat. The NFL has been thwarted.
  3. Looks like the Lions might be choosing the “take a big lead early and blow it late” method of losing today. A refreshing change.
  4. Well, I didn't say it would be a smart move on their part.
  5. I would think if you're hiding out in a building, chances are you won't contrast against the people out and about in the neighborhood.
  6. How did Leyland contribute to roster management, player advancement, and development? Honest question.
  7. How bad do you have to be at your police officer job that you think the only way you can stop a 60-year-old confined to a wheelchair from going someplace is to empty your clip into him?
  8. I can't imagine hardened gun nuts like them would want anything to do with f****ty liberal radical leftist Canada. What I can imagine is that they were hiding out in a place they figured white people would be the least likely to be found, trying to buy time to arrange for a way to get to Florida.
  9. You watch a lot of cop shows, don't you?
  10. Al and Chris have been working together in their current capacity since 2017. All through that year, 2018, 2019 and 2020, they made several dumb trades, iffy free agent signings, and ground this franchise to a 198-345 record, a win percentage of .365. All of a sudden, in 2021, they've make solid signings, a couple decent trades, and improved their record to almost .500. I wonder what was different about 2021? Hmmm ...
  11. I know, right? They won 60 games in 2021. Half a billion dollars gets them to, what, 68? Seventy? So where do they get the other 20 or so wins to contend for a playoff spot?
  12. Oh god would I ever love to see this. Probably it wouldnt matter, but then again, maybe something like this would help put a damper on legalized gambling before it rose to the level of public and social health crisis.
  13. Wasn't there once a woman deposed who testified that Trump raped her when she was 13? I think that came out a couple or three years ago, maybe?
  14. Just a reminder that more people voted for Hillary than for Trump.
  15. They are already enforcing the laws on the books and are punishing people beyond a slap on the wrist. Cruel and unusual punishment won’t reduce crime. It never did.
  16. This just baffles me. It feels as though Republican legislators simply want the people to shoot and kill each other on a massive scale, since they definitely know that this will happen, and yet they still want to make guns as easy to obtain as any items you might impulse-buy at a Walmart. I'm still trying to figure out why they would want this.
  17. At least the popcorn will.
  18. I would think that if a team investing $10-$40 million in a pitcher has any say, they would want them throwing as many innings as possible.
  19. This, I agree with 100%. You and I are on the same page here.
  20. Owning a baseball team is not the main source of income for any of the owners, and they have generational wealth that will survive them, so their risk is minimal. Not true of Players: for most of those guys, game stops, income stops. If for no other reason than this, it's obvious the lions' share of risk is on the players. This made me lol because, literally, the only reason you know what players make is the media.
  21. Especially in the only federally-protected monopoly environment in the country.
