  1. Yeah, no thanks. I’d rather chase a pitcher.
  2. Incredible timing. They are about to capped out pretty much forever.
  3. Yeah, the biggest problem with season three is that the bar has been set so high.
  4. I’ve got a $750k VA loan I didn’t lock Thursday because the buyer was overseas and generally I like to review numbers and firm up a commitment before I lock…oops.
  5. Yeah, I don’t think our depth chart should be scaring anyone off. There’s a high likelihood of attrition after the fall depending on whether Gullete or Lefau wins starter snaps and which would put a capable freshman in the two-deep.
  6. Mark Price’s game would look a lot different in the modern NBA-probably twice as many three point attempts and half as many assists. I think they’d love for him to take a chunk of FVV’s minutes so they can replace the latter with someone cheaper in ‘26. Plus Fred will get injured at some point during the season.
  7. I'm not willing to go full @Wulaw Horn on it, but there's probably some legitimacy to what @CoachEmUp64 said above--if you have 5th year, maxed out seniors that have previous starting experience at major programs, you can get 75% of the benefit of better athletes by having enough of them you can keep them fresh. I don't think that's what Sarkisian is intending, but it might be what we have to live with.
  8. I have a suspicion it will over-perform. I think they’ve been trying to market to the evangelical/fly-over ticket buyers that maybe aren’t getting picked up by the tracking surveys.
  9. There’s nothing about The Gray Man and Citadel that would support returning to the Russos. Like Marvel in general they appear to mostly interested in spending tons of money on production budgets.
  10. Unfortunately that won’t resurrect the lost momentum towards a future Avengers. $375m-$400m for Anthony Mackie Captain is bananas. That said, maybe it’s a sign they really like the movie if they are willing to make a bet that big.
  11. Or he needs Harris to tell him she won’t seek the nomination. If Harris is willing to be VP on any of the speculated nominees tickets the whole thing would be so much easier. That said, and this sounds silly but it would settle some of the Kamala problem, get Oprah on board as VP for whoever.
  12. They did not cheap out on music rights this season.
  13. You shouldn’t be, the Gray Lady has turned into a click machine but tuned to anxious lefties instead of Fox News. I still read it every day but they avidly lean into hysterics.
  14. We finished it off last night. It’s not nearly as propulsive or compelling as the first two seasons.
  15. Love the trade-will be the second best shooter on the team after Sheppard. The only pick that would have been more fun would have been to draft Bronny James and then hold him for ransom.
  16. We got through ep 5 last night. Hate to say it but I’m a little disappointed. Best moment so far was a conversation between Carmy and Marcus in (I think) ep 1. Cameos are distracting, particularly episode 5. I don’t think it should take this long to figure out what the writers are trying to say.
  17. That’s where I first saw him, too. He loses it at times (you can hear the brogue come out), but I thought he really did a fantastic job with the Texas accent after seeing James Van Der Beek show off how a really bad one sounds.
  18. That was before he was on year one with a cadaver tendon holding his arm together.
  19. Let’s be real, which of those four don’t have big red flags in terms of reliability. Plus everyone keeps presuming, without much evidence, that Garcia and LMJ would both be useful in the bullpen if we suddenly have enough starters.
  20. I’d rather they make smaller moves at multiple positions, personally. Definitely a bat at first and those are normally cheap, and then a reliever/swing man or fifth starter type.
  21. 7 runs on 11 hits, where has this team been all season?!?
  22. I don’t how much stock to put in this, but several “insiders” on Clutchfans have made the claim that Stone is pretty easy to read via his media mouthpieces, i.e., if it comes from Iko or Feigen then it’s what Stone WANTS them to say. I realize this started with Woj, but I really doubt they want KD, it’s got to be about Booker.
  23. I’m not sure he’s with a whole lot more than $18m on the open market if he can’t get 140 innings in, anyway.
  24. That’s a really good point. We know there’s no one in their admin capable of keeping a secret.
  25. It probably helped to have one of the best defensive minds of all time overseeing their development, fwiw.
