  1. Hahn did try. He was basically a Marlin until KW said "no" and traded Burger instead.
  2. Getting rid of all the distractions in the locker room. So far so good Getz.
  3. I hope so. It would be nice to see some players who can actually throw the leather around.
  4. Clearly this is setting up for Crochet to make the rotation after being stretched out in the minors.
  5. If this was Rocky Wirtz who died, SSHM would be the first one ridiculing him... because he's done it before. And I honestly didn't have a problem with it at all either (same with the Bobby Hull stuff). You reap what you sow. Bobby Knight should be no different. He did alot of good for the game but you can't ignore his past either.
  6. Thank god. I would say good luck to that piece of s%*# but I wouldn't mean it at all.
  7. Dane Dunning is a World Series Champion.. very happy for the guy.
  8. SSHM of all people white knighting (no pun intended) over Bobby Knight is... certainly something I did not see coming.
  9. Biggest trade deadline loser: You guessed it 1. Chicago Bears They whiffed at the trade deadline a year ago, giving away what became the equivalent of a first-round pick for suspect wide receiver Chase Claypool, and did so again this year, trading a second-round pick for Washington Commanders defensive end Montez Sweat and not moving disgruntled cornerback Jaylon Johnson. Multiple general managers — who spoke on the condition of anonymity to be candid without damaging their ability to negotiate with teams in the future — complained that the Bears waited until effectively midnight to make Johnson available, minimizing the window to land him. “[Bears General Manager Ryan] Poles f---ed it up again,” said one general manager who was in the cornerback market. “You can’t wait until midnight and then tell everyone in the middle of the night, ‘Now he can seek a trade,’ ” said another general manager, “and then expect teams to compete to negotiate the deal and get to know the player and work something out with the agent. That should have happened two weeks ago.” Another executive who was in talks with Poles said: “He has a really difficult time under the clock. Personally, I don’t get what they did. That’s going to be, what, the 35th pick for Sweat?” Others also panned that deal. “You can’t make that trade without having him signed,” the second general manager said. “Can you imagine what happens if Sweat gets hurt and they don’t have a deal? What’s the comp pick going to be then [if he leaves as a free agent]? I heard he was going to Atlanta for a [third-round pick] and then Poles swooped in and blew them away. I don’t get it.” And with the Bears at 2-6, Sweat is unlikely to turn around another lost season. “Doesn’t make sense for where Chicago is,” the first general manager said. “I’d have rather just traded [a third-round pick] for Chase Young” — the other Commanders edge rusher who went to the San Francisco 49ers at that price. “They should have been selling.” MSN
  10. First ever World Series win for the Rangers. Gotta love it.
  11. They'll sign him. I mean the Bears have the most cap space in the league. It would be dumb to trade for him and let him walk. I wanted Chase Young more though. Maybe Poles was scared off of acquiring another player named Chase.
  12. Bedard loves the Kane cellys (and the mullet he rocked in junior for the playoffs).
  13. I want Bagent to succeed.. just because his dad is such a beauty.
  14. I'm going to be watching the Spurs alot this year cuz of this kid. What a freak.
  15. One team was ending a 106 year curse. And Chapman at the time was arguably the best reliever in baseball. Your statement was for next season if the Rangers get a ring after this season. So if they win or not, they are not gonna trade one of the best prospects in the game for Dylan freakin Cease.
  16. LOL. 0 shot the Rangers trade Wyatt Langford. That would be like the Orioles trading Jackson Holiday. Get that idea out of your heads now.
  17. The future getting their WJC rings today.
  18. If Bagent had Fields arm strength you could actually see a starter in the NFL. But alas.
  19. Jaquan Brisker has had a hell of a game. Kid has been everywhere.
  20. Yea it's very below average. I like that he gets the ball out quick, he's accurate and it seems he processes the field quickly. But man does he have a muffin of an arm.
  21. Bears desperately need a DE, OT, WR, FS (Eddie Jackson is all but gone) and now probably a QB. Just still so many holes. Probably another 2 years or so. The good news is they SHOULD at least get 2 blue chip prospects this draft. But they need ALOT of help still.
  22. Bagent is accurate as f***, but he does not have a strong arm. He likes Tyler Scott as a receiver though.
