da55bums furiously jerking himself right now reading my posts.

I'm concerned that if you two ever met in real life it would be one of those scenes where it starts out with some awkward bravado with a lot of foul language, escalates to some reciprocal open-hand slaps, maybe some hair pulling, building to a crescendo of you two frantically making out and violently pulling each other's clothes off.

In other words, you two kind of creep me out.

If you mean laughing? then yeah - MVP Upton and the word steal, pretty much got me started, cherry picking the 4th place finish 5 years ago in MVP voting was just gravy on top.

I think its a great signing for Detroit, they HAD to get another bat to at worst cover for the injury prone guys, if they stay healthy Det has a really good lineup, you adding Dougy info into it was entertaining

Bums thinks he looks like Travolta.

I don't get how a 6 yr/132 M deal is considered a steal? Were there reports of teams offering him more than that?

Its a 6 yr deal for 132 mil. with an opt out after 2 yrs when he is 30 that he will almost GUARANTEED use. Its basically a 2 yr 44 mil deal.

Unless he gets injured or sucks, then it's not a steal.

Also, if the deal is backloaded -- as you've claimed it must be -- there's no guarantee that he would exercise his opt out.

We'll have to wait and see how it goes.

[SlinkyRedfoot]

Just checked that. Concur.

holy crap load, another day, more make believe posts from Vice. I have never said I looked like Travolta, I mentioned names that others have said.

Your children will be honest adults, I can tell.

It was just another Dougy like post when he mentioned Upton-MVP and a steal in the same line. Vice has always been Doug with more details.

If someone told me I looked like John Travolta I would punch them.

You have always been a failure in real life that comes on here trying to prove to the world you are smarter than me... I would rather be Doug with more details.

Tigers at $185MM 2016 payroll.

Looking over their obligations, I can see why they're pushing their chips in.

The cost of any luxary tax they might have to spend this year and next will be peanuts compared to what they can make if they won a WS before their TV contract is up. Plus the old man is worth a shit ton and can't take it with him. He will make it back on the TV deal alone if the Tigers have a few nice runs.
