  1. Ah yes! The memories! Those were teh days. As for economic 'realities', there are no such things; the phrase is generally used by rich people explaining why poor people have to suffer.
  2. Yup. But brace yourself for the response of the 'fantasy-GM' crowd who will sternly remind you of the economic 'realities' (i.e., 'fantasies') of team ownership.
  3. Yup. The Red Sox way: when a guy gets good, trade him.
  4. Watching Bogaerts and Betts yakking away in today's game was painful to watch.
  5. No need. There are those who do that here unprompted.
  6. I thought that was Doc Ellis.
  7. I think he should look up the meaning of parameter.
  8. Liam Freakin' Hendricks, baby! We don't need no stinkin' closer. (at least, once he recovers from his 15th TJ surgery next year maybe). Two-year contract, but he won't play this year.
  9. Yup. And every free agent agrees to sign for the minimum, and all the prospects are above average ...
  10. Well, I guess as far as kids' entertainment is concerned, I distinguish 'cheating' (which doesn't really bother me) from things like 'kidnapping teenagers for sex and photographing them' (proven or not), 'masturbating in public', 'S&M sessions with hookers', assaults over fantasy sports. But that's just me. (I should also add: 'filthy rich CEOs holding their customers in contempt while stealing more money from them')
  11. Hey! I SWEAR these allegations are false (well, at least the one about the UFO).
  12. Dude, he is 'not guilty', i.e., 'not proven to be guilty in a courtroom.' Does that mean he, McGuire, Tommy Pham, etc. are the guys you want your kids to idolize? Are those the guys whose athletic careers you want to follow and whom you want to cheer for?
  13. https://clutchpoints.com/mlb-news-trevor-bauer-dares-clubs-sign-him-near-godfather-offer I guess this is old news? Just saw it. But it makes me very very nervous.
  14. I'm really surprised the FO burner accounts are spending so much bandwidth defending players who are not even on the team.
  15. Actually, I have indeed acknowledge Verdugo (that jewel in the Betts trade) had charges dropped. As has Bauer and other fan favorites. And I'm not sure I have ever accused whatsisname of steroid abuse (not that I would give a crap about that anyway). I just don't like the fact that he is average and injured. I agree, though, I'm not big on guys arrested for masturbating in public. But to each his own.
  16. What difference would that make? The only real loss would be the nightly radio broadcast, which has been part of my life for maybe 70 years.
  17. The high moral propriety of posters here, and sports fans in general, always astounds me. How is it possible there is evil in the world.
  18. There's a great cliip of (Yankees? I forget who) taking swings against a softball women's pitcher. When the guy steps in, all the fielders lay down in the infield. He did not get even a foul ball.
  19. Yeah, but a lot of those wins were against the Red Sox, so they don't really count.
  20. Oh sure. The players sang like canaries. Cora was the only one who didn't throw anyone else under the bus. So fire him?
  21. How dare you debate BA!!!!!!
  22. So ST starts and the conversation revolves around a .200 hitting bench player?
  23. Sure was. But you know, the rest of the division has a much easier schedule now, given that they get to play the RS.
  24. Michael Fullmer, baby!!!! And he'll be ready to pitch as early as spring 2025! As Johnny Manziel famously said, "Let's get ready to WRECK THE LEAGUE!"
  25. Don't bad-mouth one of my favorite movies by using it in this context.
