Confirmed: Paul Beeston is a Blue Jays messageboard user
Laika replied to abola2121's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
I'd actually prefer that they spent the extra $100M on the stadium, to be honest. Part of this upgrade should go to purchasing the rights to 'SkyDome'. Rogers SkyDome! Fulfil your destiny! -
I will be so upset if they go to 3 on 3... If the NHL wants less shootouts, then they should remove incentives to go to overtime in the first place. That means get rid of the 3 point games, and the point system all together. You win or lose and that's it! They should also make overtime longer. Five minutes of 4 on 4 is stupid as it is, and too brief. I would want 10 minutes of 5 on 5 and then 10 minutes of 4 on 4, and if it's still tied, fine. Shootout. That's just me though... could also do 5 and 5 minutes if they don't want four hour games.

Duchene might be below expectations but he'd be much better than worst case scenario. Duchene is a stud!

There's just two ways of answering that type of question. One way (you) is to say that I think player X is going to be this good. The other way is to say that player X has a range of possible outcomes of varying likelihood. He could be so good, or so bad, or somewhere in the middle. The most rational thing to assume is that he's somewhere in the middle. Do you think a 50th percentile outcome for McDavid has him being as good as Crosby? If you simulate Connor McDavid's career 100,000 times, what would be the most common outcome?

"Executive" could basically mean senior consultants who don't even know how to use computers. http://toronto.bluejays.mlb.com/team/front_office.jsp?c_id=tor

I have no idea why Salvador Perez gets franchise player attention. There are mother f***ing PITCHERS that I would take before him. He's a solid above average, young backstop, but he's so f***ing overrated.
-
No, that's just silly. There's a decent chance that McDavid is never as good as Tavares is currently.

Razzball is for noobs....

Everyone has been thinking of / asking for / demanding major stadium upgrades for years. A $400M retrofit would be phenomenal... -
I've never noticed any of these links
-
Ok, maybe there was a loose definition of "Executive" and they just asked the 7 present personalities of the now demented Cito Gaston.
-
I'm thinking there had to be some misunderstanding of the question. Maybe they thought they weren't for sure anonymous so they wanted to give lip service to their own players, or maybe the question was worded in such a way to illicit creative out of the box responses.

He's just not a run producer
-
His ceiling is basically another Crosby, but you couldn't reasonably expect him to be that. If Mike Trout is the ceiling of a hypothetical #1 super prospect in baseball, then Bryce Harper to date might be the reasonable projection. Ben Zobrist is Bergeron. Check the WARz over the last 3 years for that analogy. But, I can't see EDM trading a guy who has a Crosby/Trout ceiling, even if the trade makes sense in the world of likely outcomes and projections and spreadsheets.

How to make a baseball commercial: http://m.mlb.com/sea/video/v48748883/flip/?team_id=136

It would be beyond awful.

I'm assuming that the Sabres are already pressing McDavid jerseys by the thousands in some sweatshop in Bangalore.
-
Wintersleep is an amazing band that deserves more fans. Not sure if there's much commercial material there though. Why not just use Drake, lol? Bring back #TeamUnit but cut the Leafs out and embrace the Raptors. ha
-
That's a lot for that play. The league clearly wants Toronto to get McDavid. Fix is in!
-
If only we'd known the cost that Beelzebub would demand for granting our requests that Saunders heal before opening day... RIP Stro

That gets NJH's stamp of fairness (rare, I'm very trape stamp happy)
-
Castro and Osuna would both be better big league starters right now than Aaron Sanchez, lol. It's like Sanchez hasn't even developed during his entire time in the minors, aside from adding some velocity to his fastball.
-
Osuna just made Boxy's boi Greg Dick look silly on a back foot slider
-
*to remember I like it Thanks for the offer but I'm not really sure I want to move a reliable SP like Niese for a closer right now.

"Forest Fire" wasn't thorough enough so KK is going with the tried and true "Scorched Earth" rebuild method
