  1. The front office is dogshit, but you're living in a fantasy if you think they took the first offer real quick. It was known after the end of the season that he was gone. Plenty of teams had the opportunity to get him and they didn't. Why? Because he wasn't worth more than a 5th round pick. Trades are about supply and demand, or getting lucky and finding an idiot team to pay way more than they're worth. His salary was becoming fully guaranteed so they didn't have the luxury of waiting around forever until they got a better offer.
  2. Everyone knew even without them saying anything. It's very simple, no team other than the Browns was willing to pay him 20 mil + 5th round pick. They were trying to trade him for months. If another team valued him more, he would've been traded to them. The teams waiting around for him to be cut clearly didn't value him enough to secure his services with a pick higher than the 5th round. An aging and often injured WR who disappears half the season is not going to command a premium in the trade market.
  3. Cooper was going to get cut. If he had any trade value multiple teams would have been involved bidding against each other. He went to the fucking Browns. Pretty much all the WRs that got traded for high picks got massive extensions. No one was going to give Cooper an extension, especially not after paying his 20 mil salary. I don't understand why people keep harping on how low of a pick they got for him. The larger the market and demand, the higher the pick. Clearly no one thought he was worth a high pick, or they would've offered one.
  4. His draft stock will improve after he hits 7 HRs in the WS.
  5. It was the same shit last year. Then, we apparently stoped fucking around in the postseason.
  6. Daly just can't catch a break this year.
  7. Did the picture quality just improve for anyone else? It looks HD from the side camera.
  8. Best to have this up: https://goutrgv.com/sidearmstats/baseball/summary
  9. Fastball down the middle seems like a pitch to swing at with 2 strikes.
  10. Moved up to #10 in rankings and #8 in RPI.
  11. Tech about to lose to WVU and TCU up by 3 T9 on Ok St.
  12. In all fairness, it was based on his great last year.
  13. Pierce was too busy trying to figure out how to send Ivan or Silas home from 1st base on a single.
