  1. I dropped it at a customer at Tims last month (she was acting like a **** though). In my first and only attempt at stand up (25 years ago, went really bad) about half of my routine was about what a great word **** was...and how it loses something if you say it with a soft c. It lead me and some of my friends to changing a lot of Hard C words to soft c. How easily I was entertained in my 20's. Then again I still have a big smile on my face as I think about it.
  2. actually called an error on Yadier...but this was fun to watch. http://ftw.usatoday.com/2015/05/against-all-odds-bartolo-colon-hits-an-infield-single
  3. CFL profit shares and Saskatchewan makes as much money as the Green Bay Packers (both publicly owned teams) CFL and their much better new TV deal will make money.
  4. considering almost every park in the FSL is set up with cameras for Spring training I never understood why they don't have any parks set up for MILB.tv.
  5. Like how they didn't baby him (they brought him out for the 7th). Tampa really attempted to run on him (4 attempts) but 2 got shut down.
  6. I don't anymore. This was part of my study abroad program at the IMG academy, they gave us in the dugout all you can drink seats at the Threshers game. Prior to returning to school I took 18 months off and that is when I went to several parks (16 I believe). Now I'm broke and still have a year of school to go
  7. Right behind Kyle Schwarber's Actually we went straight to bro hug
  8. speaking of huge boners...I got one for this guy

    nothing like going out and tripling the salary of the highest paid coach in the league
  10. You mean there is a decline at 40? You'd think that when Alex was no longer able to see his feet, much less tie his shoes at 35 he'd realize this.
  11. People keep saying this but the players were a big deal, individually they all have value. Alvarez has provided 4.1 fWAR (to Buehrle's 5.3), Marisnick 1.4 WAR and was a major piece in a deal for Cosart (2.0 fWAR himself). DeSclafani (0.5 fWAR) was traded for Mat Latos (a $9.4M 1 year contract that many wanted to the Jays to pick up this year), Escobar (I don't give a s*** about the "had to go" stuff...that was their own PR department mishandling) 4.4 fWAR and traded three times (all for positive value players, including this year for a top 20 reliever), Nicolino is still a top 100-150 (depending on what list you use) prospect. Hech is the outlier here as his defensive metrics have not matched what he was thought to be. He's put up -1.0 fWAR. So alone the players involved have gone: Players going out 9.4 fWAR Players coming in 12.0 fWAR Once you calculate the continued control years for the players going out it's pretty much a value and actual loss. Or the players could have been individually dealt and provided solid returns.
  12. Still think the Dickey deal was more "overkill" (just not knowing where the team was yet, but assuming after the Marlins deal it was a contender), but as far as value goes there were some experts that were calling it a wash or close to it. Personally I was biased as a TdA fanatic. I think the projections were around Dickey providing us with around 7 or so WAR over the 4 years of the contract. He was a little below projections for the first two years (but provided positive value), and I don't see any way he earns his contract this year and they'd be stupid to give him the option.
  13. You know how I hate making decisions... speaking of, that decision on Longo I said I'd wait until mid June. Well I got an offer I like, if you want in you best act fast and come with your best offer or FYSMC
  14. Jays should have several guys like that. The 5th starter on this team should be guys loaded with options and move them up and down, and piggybacking them in 3 inning starts. Not unlike some other team that has managed to effectively do it.
  15. Once Meso is back and able to play on a regular basis I'll be trading Santana. Also it's a possibility that Longo could be moved. I want MLB ready players or really highly touted prospects. No one under 20. Chances are i won't make a move until Mid-June unless someone wows me.
  16. Not to mention it really left us with JPA as our number 1 catcher
  17. Are you speaking on behalf of all children or is that one just you?
  18. Won't someone think of the children
  19. Speaking of trash...guaranteed win day without a win. That earns you a banning too. anyone else?
  20. Good to see things are back to normal. Pulling out a 9-3 win with a sub .600 OPS.
  21. Kind of nice to go away for a week and come back here to see the Jays imploding.
