  1. Both sides, but the School of the Americas did no wrong!!!!!! Ahahahaha... So that school was disbanded for no reason? Funny stuff.
  2. I’d put in more than a dollar if they are passing a hat.
  3. Yeah, they just stuck with Mitch for familiarity.
  4. Stadium wide name game ice breaker.
  5. If Kraft lets Brady walk, it'll crush the fanbase and he craves his popularity.
  6. Brees is retiring.
  7. Tannehill is a UFA. My guess is they are just tying Brady in with his familiarity with Mike Vrabel. Same reason they thought he could go to the Browns if the Josh McDaniels went there.
  8. https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/blogs/mlb-big-league-stew/john-mcdonald-%E2%80%94-who-was-once-traded-for-himself-%E2%80%94-retires-025408489.html On July 22, 2005, McDonald was sent to Detroit in a conditional deal where compensation would be finalized months down the road. In November of the same year, the two sides settled the deal when Detroit sent cash to Toronto. A few days later, Toronto used that money to buy McDonald back, finalizing what was basically a three-month rental. It's a very strange scenario, but it's not a first. After digging the baseball history books, it turns out McDonald is one of six MLB players to be traded under these circumstances. Clint Courtney was the first in 1961. On January 24, Courtney was traded by the Baltimore Orioles to the Kansas City Athletics in a seven-player deal. On April 15, he was sent back to Baltimore to complete the deal. Harry Chiti (1962), Mark Ross (1985-86), Dickie Noles (1987) and Archie Corbin (1992-93) are the others. LOLOLOL
  9. The Cubs don't pick the player, the Sox do.
  10. I do appreciate that the Sox traded Lakins for cash/PTBNL and the Cubs just waived him a few weeks later. Free money.
  11. Travis Lakins was claimed by the Orioles.
  12. And with DD being GM... DD only cared about the current roster. If it meant trading Betts for 10 top 100 prospects in A ball, he wouldn't have done it.
  13. @ZHBuchanan Diamondbacks bench coach Luis Urueta will interview by phone for the Red Sox managerial job later today, per a source. @Enrique_Rojas1 first reported Uruera was a candidate.
  14. Oh, they are amazing, but just not as good as posters like Pumpsie Green, SeaBeachFred, et al.
  15. I will need about 14,000 posts this season to pass Jacko so I'll be keeping you busy.
  16. I just wonder if he passes through waivers and the Sox bring him back on a MiLB deal. He was a AAA All Star or some s*** last year. By the time he played in BOS last year, I had already tuned out the season.
  17. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/26/world/americas/el-salvador-el-mazote-massacre.html https://www.nytimes.com/1995/04/03/world/school-for-assassins-or-aid-to-latin-democracy.html https://apnews.com/2ded14659982426c9b2552827734be83
  18. @ChrisCotillo Trevor Kelley DFA'd by Phillies. Phillies had grabbed him after being put through waivers by BOS. Does Bloom bring him back?
  19. History not political opinion: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_involvement_in_regime_change_in_Latin_America https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/El_Mozote_massacre https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_Hemisphere_Institute_for_Security_Cooperation
  20. I've seen the same thing in MA and FL when talking to board members. I hope to be proven wrong and that baseball becomes America's Pastime again. I just don't believe it's the case. Slasher, please review my post for any grammatical inconsistencies. Thank you.
  21. I thought so when ARod signed with TX for 10/252. We've blown past that.
  22. News flash: people who left a country didn't like the country they stayed in, but the people who stayed behind were happy. My mind just melted! How would the Venezuelan situation look if the US didn't intervene (attempted 2002 coup, sanctions, etc)? The truth of the matter is that the US spends all it's time making sure that any government that is not strict capitalist will fail. Saying "oh, it didn't work in Venezuela" is silly because it doesn't note that the US is actively participating in making the economy bleed. And that's all I have to say on the matter. I should have left it with, yes there are still communists. Some young people are into the idea.
