I would do it in a heartbeat. To keep the number 1 and get MHJ would be a phenomenonal draft regardless of what else happens.

Yeah, that way too good to be true.

Has Lucas expressed interest in buying a MLB team? Doesn't seem his style.

When I worked for the Packers they played 2 games each year in Milwaukee at County Stadium and the rest in Green Bay.

Nope. Sorry, clicked on the wrong one to reply.

I think it's more that the lease of the current ballpark is up in 5 years and they need to start applying leverage to the state to work on the deal. But it probably does ay a factor.

Couldn't be happier about Sheffield. Terrible human being.

I think a complicating factor is that Boras represents all of the best still involved. Everyone knows he will wait even into Spring training so the market is just stalled.

While it's all exciting to talk about and the stadium wold be a great place to watch games, my bet it's all a negotiating ploy to get a better deal for when the lease is up in 5 years for the current ballpark.

He worked for CIBC at the time. He said that ownership is working on proposals but that doesn't mean it's even going to happen or the level of function is funding. Just thought it was interesting that it's possible.

But not from why happened with the united center. My friend worked on that financing.

The physical tests and imaging will determine the extent of the damage and that's what the decision is based upon. But just to say "any issue with the elbow and we'll go to surgery" is borderline malpractice. The decision should not be based on what it will do to his career and team but what is best for the patient. Who cares if he misses time because conservative care doesn't work. There are many possible complications from surgery that should be avoided except as the last resort. The health of the patient is the primary concern.

Dang, that's almost malpractice by the medical team.

Talked to a friend of mine who said JR is working on financing proposals. If it happens it appears that the current ownership group will have a significant stake in the financing.

Not sure. This is where the manual tests come in to play. Just because a tear shows up on imaging doesn't mean it impacts there function. The classic example of this is the studies on herniated discs. They took a 1000 people with no history of back pain and subjected them to MRI evaluation. Over 40% were diagnosed with herniated discs. Tissue derangement doesn't necessarily correlate with dysfunction. That why I tell my students the definition of MRI is More Radiographic Income. They are a helpful piece of the puzzle but should not be solely relied upon.

We'll now we know why the Orioles fans think the way they do. The GM expects to get something g for nothing even though he acknowledged that you must trade something to get something. They are going to be stuck in the "almost made it."

Conservative care is nearly always the first option unless the tests show significant laxity with the joint play.

Chris Harris to interview for the DC job. He was a good player to watch seems to have done a good job as DC.

He wouldn't have competition in the other city. It's an interesting debate.

Thanks, worth watching his spring training progress.

The key factor was trading nearly the entire starting pitching staff at the deadline. They obviously weren't prepared for that and it was a total tank after that.

Is this a classic elbow rehab and waiting to see how it holds up?

That was one proposal.

I was going to say in the belfry.

According to Kevin Warren who helped the Viking get their new stadium, it 3 years from ground breaking to playing.
