  1. What's going on here is that AB and his wife went to Vermont to get away from this exact thing. They were found by the papparazzi. They understand this is part of the gig, but they are still pissed off about it. The kids are crying in the car because they were being chased by the papparazzi. The goal of AB and his wife was to get the papparazzi to stop following them. AB knew that the only way to do it was to answer their questions and give them what they wanted (or as much as he could without jeopardizing himself). His wife was letting her anger interfere with dealing effectively with the papparazzi in the only way possible - to give them what they wanted. Again, all with the goal to calm their children.
  2. Makes me weep for humanity watching Black Friday videos of idiots busting down doors and trampling people. This. I'd rather take an ass whippin' than go on a cruise. Some have told me that the smaller lines are actually cool. I don't think I will find out. I like to do my own thing.
  3. Fair enough. It's been eleven years since that championship game. We had a year where we didn't suck. Still ten years, not contiguous.
  4. One decade. We played for the NC in 2010. That was the last time we didn't suck.
  5. Mets, Rangers, Angels haz the dumb.
  6. Because you've seen Kentucky Fried Movie?
  7. Yes, but you still have the problem of trying to split the high altitude effect from the simple playing at home effect. There's probably a way. I'm too lazy.
  8. I wondered the same thing until someone educated me that AAV is what is used for luxury tax purposes, so that doesn't work.
  9. He's got questions about both chronic conditions and being injury prone. They aren't mutually exclusive.
  10. It helps when you have nearly free labor.
  11. Obviously there are guys who are excellent coordinators, but poor head coaches. He might be one of those and he also might know that about himself. If the case that he sucks as a head coach, let's hope he betrays his better instincts and takes the money.
  12. By "adversarial situation" you mean football games, right?
  13. Yeah, but I mean, most players hit better at home than away. So I don't know how much of that is Coors Field and how much is just home stadium.
  14. No way. I think the reluctance on the Astros part was purely due to the injury concerns, which were legitimate. Still are, tbh.
  15. I don't think being a Rocky automatically means you are 25% less of a player than your stats suggest, but Story's numbers actually do suggest that might be the case with him. My main point is that I'd rather not have a hole in the lineup or the defense where Correa used to be; I don't want to win 7 fewer games without Correa. We don't necessarily need a 6.2 WAR guy, but I think we do need a 2.5 WAR guy to be a playoff lock. That's what I want. Here's Story's career BA: Home .303 Away .241

  18. Why? Of the four best SS free agents, two are left. One wants a 10 year record-breaking deal; the other is a very good player and actually gettable by us. I'd rather spend the money for Story than ride with Diaz or Pena.
  19. Fuck that. WE need to sign Story.
  20. Those sweaters are great.
  21. Jesus. ND might be a playoff team! Could this be a smokescreen to get Kelly more money at ND or to cover for the coach they are really after? Coaches' agents must play all these AD fools and just laugh and laugh.
  22. If it wasn't assured before, the Seager signing pretty much seals that the Astros are not signing Correa. I have to admit, I had hope.
  23. The level of coordination and deception astounds me. I don't blame Riley for anything that he did. He followed the playbook. It's just a shame that college football has gotten that cold-hearted. Maybe it's always been that way. We just throw players away like trash. There's no real loyalty. It's all about the money and nothing else.
  24. This. I don't know why, but I hate the fact that non-Power 5 schools (and ND) have a shot. They don't play the same strength of schedule so they don't deserve to get in. Period.
  25. This, in the short term. Longer term, though, all of this conference realignment is going to end up changing the way the playoff is structured. The SEC with TX and OU is going to warp the gravity in CFB. The new SEC is going to have as many (or more) quality teams as the other "Power 5" conferences combined. Long term, I see an advantage to getting into the playoff by being in the SEC, which will get 2-3 schools in every year, versus each of the other three conferences getting 1, maybe 2. But for Riley, only the short term matters. What's the average tenure of a coach at the FCS level, anyway? 3-4 years?
