    Welp, I have to go see family too, but I will have my laptop and shouldn't be delayed more than a few minutes if my pick happens to come up again. Priorities, people

    For the new folk - I've only been in once, a couple years ago but... We basically all do our best to make picks promptly on this thread. Like Capn will start by just posting "Abilene Christian" or whatever and then Goo will pick his team, etc. No. 8 Jack Straw will pick two teams and it snakes back up. The "play-in" games count as one team, you keep whoever wins (so type "Temple/Belmont" for example). We try to re-post the draft order at the top of new each page so no one accidentally picks out of order. As far as keeping it moving, everyone understands if you have a conference call, walk dog, etc. but it helps if you post here to let us know what time you think you can come back. Like I have a conference call from 9:30-10 am Central, otherwise I can probably be around all morning. Any of you veterans feel free to add to that...

    Kansas basketball yearbook cover said "ADD TO IT" with all their trophies lined up They did get the NIT Preseason Tipoff trophy so I guess mission accomplished?

    WVU would be 16-19 in the NCAAs if they keep rolling...all remaining teams pretty flawed

    Vox reviewer saw first three eps: "Serves up an agenda and little else" There are some spoilers in the article, but even from episode one you can tell they spend a lot of time coloring in the backstories and not a ton of time analyzing the evidence or court proceedings.

    My old avatar will work again! Plus my $25 Chinese knockoff jersey from like 10 years ago

    Amazing how much money and effort gets spent on a piece that just gets tossed aside. Might have been the funniest part of the show. You could tell right away Idris just wasn't comfortable with the live stuff.

    Embiid quite possibly back Sunday for a huge game vs. Pacers. The schedules set up so PHI still should get up to the 3 seed and have a winnable first series assuming no further injuries (could really use Boban back too). But there are definitely non-injury problems. Redick may be toast, and Butler hasn't been scoring either. That exposes Simmons even more, he needs 3-4 quality shooters on the floor with him otherwise you just sit back and don't let him blow by for a dunk.

    Meant to say that money or not, the Phillies need to get better to contend with Yankees for players. If that happens in the next year or two, then they can probably get Trout even without going far beyond the NYY offer.

    More stolen bases? How many SB reviews come down to an inch or two? Also more batted balls hitting bases, though that would be pretty negligible. Maybe they feel it's safer for runners and fielders to have a larger space.
  21. Bartles
    Home town discount in Trout's case means he'll come to Philly if the offers are roughly the same. Usually you have to way outbid the Yankees. At the moment, NYY is still in a better position because they have recent playoff appearances and a young nucleus. The Phillies are still climbing out from a decade of bad drafts and development. This will be a vital year to show improvement.

    Gotta keep bumping this. "Waiting for the Artist" might be the best episode they've done in the series. A profile of performance artists played by Cate Blanchett and Fred Armisen.

    Catdaddy, just go read an article from the beginning of all this. The FBI is within its jurisdiction and people are going to jail for crimes. Let's not nudge this to a cloak room topic because you think they should have other priorities.

    Our spot is Cape May at the southern tip of New Jersey. Less than 90 min drive from PHL airport. Not overrun by any annoying types. Even if you hate Philly sports, you'll see lots of shirts and hats but it's not the obnoxious fans. Nice beaches, great bars/restaurants, easy walking/driving/biking everywhere. About 15 minutes from Wildwood boardwalk which is rowdier but has rides, etc. But Hilton Head is great too - I haven't been in so long I can't recommend anything specific.

    It's still a week ahead of when Boras/Arietta signed last year. Not sure any team is needy enough to give those guys long term (5+) deals. Some writers tweeted the Nationals were in talks with Kimbrel, but no way they get it done under the luxury tax which was a priority for them.
