  1. I understand being out on Sark, but I can’t understand wanting Patterson as the replacement. Aim higher.
  2. The Rockets, Mavericks and Spurs are all successful and have great fanbases, so you're not really on that point. Also, I was in school when we went to the Final Four and the Elite Eight, don't tell me about not having crazy fans, we lined up early as shit and packed that motherfucker out. I was about 10 feet away from Bobby Knight when I told him to choke out his bitch point guard for not being able to break a simple press. Winning solves everything.
  3. We’ll just trade one religious psycho owner for another. If you consider Bezos’s religion of being a self-aggrandizing dipshit an upgrade to our current Eastern Orthodox Catholicism, I wouldn’t argue it.
  4. This is phenomenal tanking. Whoever wins between two 2-8 teams is the loser. Draft is all that matters now. We benched our best defensive player for reasons literally no one can explain and went out and grabbed the L. Nicely done.
  5. I like Marte’s game and would be OK with that price, but also good passing at that price. I’ve always liked the Mets, I hope they get it together and start winning again.
  6. Great call, idiot. Just ripped your donkey squad via spending.
  7. Don’t care anymore.
  8. It is not possible to say if this is the coaching at this point because our line play is so bad. No O coach can undo their OLine allowing endless pressure and not creating running room, and no D coach can undo getting fucking ZERO pressure or stopping the run. You can disguise the weakness but it always reveals eventually. Now, it becomes a coaching issue if they allow the same inability to continue. But we either develop the fuck out of some dudes or literally take 4 transfers on each side of the ball, or we run out the exact same product next year.
  9. Also I want to finally stop passing on signing Morton back lulz
  10. 2/3 is a fraction, and the so called experts are projecting 5 years $100M for Marcus. But even that’s a lot for me. Like I said, in Click I trust, we’ll see. I was just throwing out a name.
  11. That’s not what he said - He didn’t say Houston is going to go sign top flight talent. He just said Houston is going to sign free agents with the cap space vacated by departing free agents.
  12. We are super lucky to have Luhnow and Click as GMs back-to-back. Click will do what must be done, if that includes letting someone else pay Carlos $180,000 per hit and we go scoop someone like Semien to produce the same for a fraction of the cost, let’s do it. Will miss Correa if that comes to pass, but I get a crazy feeling that my life might continue.
  13. You don’t know Boston fans very well, that is clear. But obviously you’ve made up your mind. You should travel there more, great city, but I don’t think there’s a worse sports group in this country, or at least no one who outshines them definitively from my experience. They are ‘used to winning’ and super proud of their fandom and city which often creates a less than stellar result in fans.
  14. Not sure why people don’t just Google before they say something, but, I got you.
  15. You could’ve taken this argument and run with it if you hadn’t started off by breaking your ankle like that.
  16. That was a lot of words so no one read it but good luck at the Grown Man with Hurt Feelings awards I take it you’re a finalist. 😂
  17. Congrats to the Braves! .500 at the break, and now the Champs. That’s an outstanding team full of guys who are very easy to root for, they deserve it.
  18. Disappointing end but another amazing season and we’re talented enough to run it back next year. Can’t think of more than 2 or 3 teams whose fans wouldn’t trade with us in a heartbeat. Go Astros.
  19. What the Astros have done to the Yankees and their fans is hilarious and pretty awesome. Astros odds-on favorites to win AL in 2022.
  20. Great game. Fuck.
