[Teal Swordsman]

Is it just me or does the whole thing of the Yankees being stuck with A*Roids fall into the category of chickens finally coming home to roost?

LOL

they should sign josh beckett to a 1 year retirement deal. maybe he can bring back some magic.

 

[Brocktagon]

since the cubs cannot win a world series in 2 years to Miami, because they're in the NL, my guess is that they will win against the tampa bay rays.

Yeah, but they need to stay a little patient at the same time too. They sent 2B Derek Dietrich down a few weeks ago, but he's a nice lefty bat with some power, but needs a little bit more seasoning. Unfortunately Marcell Ozuna is out for the year now, but we're stacked with talent in the OF.

They need a 3B and a Catcher. If the Marlins ownership could get his head out of his ass to sign Stanton long-term, and if Ozuna didn't get injured, the Marlins could use Ozuna as a trade chip to land a 3B or Catcher - preferably Catcher since they did draft 3B Colin Moran who at 21 may be only a year or 2 away.

There are pieces already in the organization that can jump start the offense once it all comes together.

They don't want the kids to get drunk and fat.

Fernandez? done

Hell no!

Middlebrooks would be a nice fit with the Marlins, but I don't think the Marlins and Red Sox are compatible for a trade.

hahaha

i like your negotiation skillz

would you like a job as the GM of the Celtics?

 

[RedSoxWorrld]

Hell no!

Middlebrooks would be a nice fit with the Marlins, but I don't think the Marlins and Red Sox are compatible for a trade.

obviously a joke with that trade

but middlebrooks might be a good fit for marlins, not sure what value they'd place in him, not sure why he isnt back up yet

has to be more than just his performance......attitude maybe?

 

[Teal Swordsman]

I like what the Celtics did. Give it a couple of years. If the youth movement goes right, you guys will be back.

That's what I would think too. He's young and obviously the league has adjusted to him. Maybe attitude didn't adjust the way the Red Sox were comfortable with?

danny ainge destroyed a good team. he traded away perkins and got nothing in return. you know the rest.

 

[Brocktagon]

middlebrooks should have a contract like this

first half of season - $2 million

second half of season - $0 million

 

[Teal Swordsman]

Where is the website owner to talk to us about the Rangers with Nelson Cruz? this is the biggest news about Cruz since he used the wrong route on that fly ball by David Freese.

ESPN’s Howard Bryant Trashes Tom Brady, Bill Belichick For Aaron Hernandez Response

By Michael Hurley, CBS Boston

August 6, 2013 10:25 AM


http://boston.cbslocal.com/2013/08/...bill-belichick-for-aaron-hernandez-response/#

BOSTON (CBS) — Just about everyone who is not directly involved with the murder of Odin Lloyd and the subsequent arrest of Aaron Hernandez has moved on. If you’re not an investigator, a lawyer or a judge, there’s not much you can do or say from the outside that can have any sort of impact on the tragedy or the court case.
Nevertheless, ESPN’s Howard Bryant has not moved on, and he is a very angry man.
His anger, conveyed in a column for ESPN The Magazine, was directed mostly at Tom Brady and Bill Belichick. Their offense: Not saying enough in the wake of the arrest of Hernandez and the murder charges he’s currently facing.
Bryant spends a brief 711 words pontificating about how awful Brady and Belichick are as humans. Here’s a taste:

“[When Hernandez was arrested], Belichick was on vacation. Here was the player he scouted, drafted and rewarded with a $40 million contract being connected to two shootings and three murders, and apparently the coach didn’t think it was important enough to return home.”
“When Brady, general of the red zone, father of three, finally did speak about Hernandez nearly a month later, Bela Lugosi couldn’t have made his first public comments sound more inhuman.”
“In other words, tough break, Odin Whatever-your-name-was, but Tom has game film to watch. He’s moved on. Brady made a teammate’s being charged with a murder while also being linked to a drive-by double murder a year earlier sound no different from overcoming Richard Seymour’s being traded to the Raiders.”
“When the media were done applauding Belichick for doing the least amount possible, it was suggested that the Patriots did not owe the public a response, because it would give the impression that the 
organization was somehow responsible for Hernandez’s alleged crimes. Here’s the truth: The Patriots do owe the public, because they and every other sports team in America take from the public, profit from the public, sell their name to the public.”
“Had Hernandez saved a toddler from drowning instead of allegedly putting a bullet into a friend, the Patriots would have claimed him. The hero machine would have churned, applauding itself for giving the poor kid from the tough background a chance, first to take credit for the sunshine.”
​

In truth, there may have been a salient point or two to be made from Bryant’s opinion, except for, well, they were buried underneath heaps of verbal garbage and logically bankrupt statements.
The fact is that Bryant spends plenty of time complaining about what Brady and Belichick didn’t do, but he spends very little time offering a suggestion of what they should have done. No matter what, this scathing column was going to be written — it just needed some blanks to be filled in based on the events of the past month and a half.
Had Belichick rushed home from his European vacation immediately upon hearing of Hernandez’s involvement with a murder, what exactly was he going to do? Hold the very same press conference that Bryant eventually found detestable and disgusting? If Belichick had held that press conference three weeks earlier, would Bryant have written this same exact column with the same exact criticisms? Seems like it.
