  1. I had such high hopes for him, back in the day... but he just never panned out. He wouldn't be a bad reliever, but he would cost too much.
  2. Just look at Ellsbury. Our record could have been a lot better if he had just slid into second the correct way. As for the rest of the season... yeah. Our record isn't that much better than the Astros. That's ridiculous.
  3. Ah, the old Colts strategy.
  4. Let's just pretend that Billy Beane had went to the Red Sox after all and work like that.
  5. Watching the A's potentially make a miracle happen is the only thing worth watching in the MLB now. It's a great story.
  6. The Private Life of Henry It Happened One Night (This would have worked better for the last day of the season last year.) A Midsummer Night's Dream (That the Postseason Is Possible) Children of a Lesser God Field of Screams A Few Good Men (Literally) Saving Private Ryan Lavarnway $68 Million Dollar Baby (Josh Beckett) Apocalypse This Whole Season, Really Who's Afraid of Bobby Valentine? How the AL East Was Not Won 9 Angry Men (In the Lineup) A Streetcar Named Lack of Desire I don't know if any of these have been done already.
  7. I can't find the fault in that logic.
  8. Yeah, with the state our team is in, a closer would definitely change everything around. :papelbon:
  9. This is worst than last season's end, except that at least was dramatic to watch. This is just sad.
  10. Can you imagine the ridiculous amount of scrutiny that would be on Felix if he played for us? You can't blame him for not wanting to come to a big market. Same with Greinke.
  11. How did we manage to not throw him into the Dodgers mix, too?
  12. Guys, he stole a base this year.
  13. Felix isn't going anywhere unless he finally requests to be traded to a contender like Ichiro.
  14. It's over. Josh Beckett still has quite a few turns in the rotation left.
  15. Well, if you get rid of Rondo then you need someone productive at the 1. Nash? He has a few years left in which he'll continue putting together great stats and that would give time for a draft pick to develop and learn from one of the best ever.
  16. Since you're so against using Rondo in any capacity, why not entertain the idea of using him as trade bait for some new pieces already in the league? Trading away your best player that will still be under contract for the possibility of some good draft picks is too risky of an idea. You may be comfortable with it, but I'm sure any FO in their right mind wouldn't be. If you're going to trade the player you have built your team around (whether you believe he deserves it or not), they want to see some value coming back right away, not in five years. You may be 'realistic,' but you're not being smart in a team management sense. No one wants to be terrible and out of contention for years on one giant maybe of a signing.
  17. I'm thinking that he's secretly a Sixers fan or something and wants the Celtics to implode.
  18. One guy ruins the whole squad. Ugggggggh this logic.
  19. There is no reason to go into a complete rebuilding mode if we already have good pieces in place. That's stupid. You're acting like we're the Suns or something.
  20. The last time the Celtics had a record that was .500 or below was the 06-07 season, so tell me more about how Rajon Rondo is going to lead us to .500 season after .500 season. I would love to see evidence of that. We teetered around there this season because, let's face it, every team had a rough season. The lockout killed a lot of the momentum for the majority of teams in the NBA and we were not the only ones to not be firing on all cylinders out of the starting gate. You also seem to discredit the fact that we did really well after the All-Star Break, and Rondo was a big part of that. You've given zero evidence as to why Rondo should be traded, other than "lol his jumper sucks." At least share with the class who you think would excel better than him at the point position. I'm all ears.
  21. I'm pulling for OKC, due to the Supersonics being one of my favourite teams as a kid. It's not the same thing, but it's close enough.
  22. Trade away one of the best and most exciting point guards in the NBA today who adds a ton to offence and is a player that you can build and will build your franchise around once his jumpshot improves... for draft picks. Sound strategy, if you're a desperate team at the bottom of your conference with nowhere to go but up. That is not the Boston Celtics.
