  1. I think he's of Mexican "heritage" or something. Same way Freeman is Canadian.
  2. personally I don't think they are innocent at all. The lawsuit will open a huge investigation which will include their testimony which is the part I find interesting.
  3. Zimmerman and Howard have filed a lawsuit against Al Jazeera. This is going to be really interesting.
  4. For me the NFL has become the worst league. The quality of football has been getting worse and worse, everyone is always injured, commish is awful.. It used to be my fav league but its comfortably in last now. MLB, NBA, NHL and NFL is the order I'd rank them.
  5. For sure. Entrepreneurs are basically always on the clock.
  6. Well the Sens and Bruins aren't exactly on the upswing either. As a sens fan myself, I've lost interest since the GM is a total moron. Only reason I watch is because of Karlsson.
  7. Gonna guess the Leafs being s*** for all this time has been a major reason why there is little interest in hockey. As soon as they become good more people will become interested.
  8. His AGMs probably worked long hours during the week but its hardly the 24/7 job a GM is. When a GM is at home he is still going to be working the whole time on his phone and you really never have a break. AGMs can go on vacations and that since someone can just fill in for their duties.
  9. Nice find. I find it hard to believe Sly was lying about all of those claims. He had a much larger reason to lie in his youtube video than when he was being recorded unwillingly. There are tons of athletes taking PEDs in all sports right now, its naive to think it doesn't happen. No one cares athletes take PEDs including the owners themselve. Owners only care when players get caught and the perception of their franchise. Painkillers and cocaine are just as bad if not worse than PEDs yet are abused by athletes all the time and no one blinks an eye. Hell, for NFL the damage done on the field is 3x as bad as the damage done by PEDs.
  10. lol also the same as Stamkos
  11. You still have a chance at making the playoffs.
  12. Kinda happy the league will be getting smaller. Adds some real excitement for the offseason. Crosby, the King, Kopitar all are game changers.
  13. lol Russia scores with 6 seconds left to tie the game.
  14. I'll be staying in the league. Super prospect Mikko Rantenen is available for trade. Just scored the go-ahead goal in the WJC gold medal game!
  15. In hindsight 20 teams was way too many teams for a NHL league on a baseball forum.
  16. Watch AA will be all about prospects now. We'll find out it was Rogers and Beeston who wanted to "go all in" and trade every prospect.
  17. This seems like a great move for AA. Analytics was one of his weakest areas so he can learn from some of the very best in LA. Once Montreal gets a team he can be the GM there!
  18. Who's the commish of this league?
  19. Downhill plane doesn't really matter in Stroman's case since he gets a ton of groundballs. Stroman 0.51 HR/9 the last 2 years which is among the best in all of baseball so you can check off that box as well.
  20. Blanket statements like "short pitchers don't succeed" is how Stroman got overlooked in the first place. I prefer to look at players individually, and Stroman checks off all the boxes you want to have in a SP. Athletic Makeup Great mechanics Command Ability to spin the ball
  21. That trade doesn't even make the team better for this season, let alone the future. CJ Wilson makes $20 Million and wouldn't even be a top 6 SP on this year's team talent wise. And I'd hate to sell low on Travis and have Goins be the starting 2B. I don't want to be giving up assets to acquire number 4/5 SP.
  22. That first proposal is gross. I would easily do the 2nd proposal but I don't think the Angels would.
  23. I can't see the Jays trading away a SP for a reliever after the Chavez trade.
  24. That was a fantastic game. Most entertaining hockey game I've watched all year.
