  1. Shredding Soria's salary is a huge move for the royals to resign Hoz

      You mean the same Joey Votto who is 34 and in the midst of a ten year 225 million contract?? I would take Hoz 10/10 times with that deal

    3. redout22

      He is guaranteed 25 million until he's 40..

      and Hoz will be 36 at the end of the Royal deal with career numbers not anywhere near Votto's, even though he's six years younger.  Hoz is a defensive guy and there is better value out there at 1b if the Royal's don't get some pitching.  He's great defensively and somewhere in the middle third when compared to other starting 1st basemen.  If he thinks he can do better then 20 million/year, then he should go chase that.  

       

      Hoz career .284/.342/.439 - one ring though.  That should count  for something.  

      Votto career- .313/.428/.541

      This is a question that is asked far too often when the Patriots are involved.

      No kidding.   Should have been like 35-17 final.  Refs really determined that game.  LOL.  Pats might have played the 4th quarter of those 2 calls didn't happen though.  

  3. I'm pissed I was asleep so I didn't watch the curling gold medal match

      @Comfortably Numb Good point. It's one of those sports that makes me get all philosophical about life.

      I mean... is there something out there in the world that I'm AMAZING at, and I just haven't found it? Then I think of all the people who never find that thing. And how the hell did these people just randomly decide "I want to do curling!" and then it turns out they're great at it. Obviously they worked hard to get good, too. But when you win a gold medal it means probably you're naturally gifted at... curling.

      Then there are those jerks like Bo Jackson that are good at everything so it doesn't even matter what they decided to do.

  4. If Iowa beats Michigan and we beat Iowa but lose to Michigan State what does that do for us..

      If we beat Michigan I am very ok if we dont have to face MSU. Losing to Wisconsin wouldnt be ideal especially if they win the whole thing but I think we matchup ok with Wisconsin. Outside of Happ they arent all that scary.

      Are you a traditionalist? - 22 wins, 11 losses - Looks good, give him an extention

      Are you into analytics? - 1 Q1 win, few good advanced metrics - Do we put up with another year?

      Are you big on final results? - no NCAA tourney, 1st round NIT loss - Moos, who's on your shortlist?

      He should get 1 more year.

      It'd be funny if Miss. State or Penn St. won the NIT and Michigan won the championship.

      I still can't figure out why we played Miss State in the 1st round on their home court.  Weren't we both two of the higher seeds in the NIT?  Weird.

      I'd agree with tschu unfortunately since I'm going to the Iowa game for my son's first game. Hopefully we win.

    4. suh_fan93

      suh_fan93

      Agree with tschu. Iowa game is a tossup at this point. I don't even want to think about the bowl game because that could be a very ugly bow to tie up the season with.

      I was actually yelling at them to kick a field goal on first down at one point just to get the lead. Truly a bizarre experience.

  16. It's been seven great long years with starlin Castro at the helm as my avatar. Looks like it's time for a change because he was traded today. Dumb Cubs. Anyway, time for a new avatar, time to take a look at the Cubs farm system.

      Ed Morrow being in the lineup allows Miles to set his rotations better and has the players playing appropriate minutes. Totally different team with Morrow.
