    Tending to a family matter.

    Profar 162 game suspension.

    I think that a second positive test should make your contract voidable at the team's option. If you're going to miss a full season, it materially changes the terms of the deal and as such the team should have an out.

    If we could trade Hector Olivera, we can trade anyone.

    If we're looking for a veteran bat off the bench or DH type, Justin Turner is still out there. He was bad last year in Chicago but was decent in 2024. He'd also likely come pretty cheap.

    I'm not broken up about this at all. I actually wonder if one of the motivations for the Yaz signing was trying to get some insurance against Profar testing positive again. Getting the money back to use on the roster this year is sufficient compensation.

    Yeah, with the number of starters teams use over the course of a year you can never have too many of these arms stockpiled.

    Am I the only one that finds it slightly suspicious that in a league where appreciation of franchise values is so important, the team the league knows is about to be put up for sale wins the Super Bowl? Funny how often the league gets the best economic result.

    Lolita Express is finally arrested.

    The Prince Andrew arrest is one of two things. First, it could be an attempt to get him to roll on everything and everyone. You hold one thing you might be able to prove over his head and hope he'll start naming names. Or, this could be an attempt to make things go away. Arrest him on a...

    Lolita Express is finally arrested.

    The idea that we have remotely everything released at this point is ridiculous. Bondi saying they've released everything is basically calling everyone stupid. An ounce of logic shows she's lying. Go look at the files and see how many incomplete email threads are there. Threads that make no...

    Lolita Express is finally arrested.

    One thing reading these files has taught me is that billionaires are a lot dumber than people tend to think.

    Lolita Express is finally arrested.

    The text message threads between Epstein and Steve Bannon are interesting. These texts were post registered sex offender when Bannon was working at the White House. These weren't casual exchanges either. These are clearly two friends talking. Bannon was also getting tangible benefits from that...

    2025-2026 offseason thread

    Crazy conspiracy theory. MLB has been funneling money to the Dodgers to sign players for several years in preparation for this collective bargaining agreement. By throwing the economics of baseball out of balance they hope to get a salary cap in place. They hope the current system making over...

    Lolita Express is finally arrested.

    The Epstein Files might bring down the current British Government. Politicians in France are running scared. But here in the US, where more people are named than anywhere else, no major pressure. That makes me sick with the country. It shows we value political ideology over protecting the most...

    I didnt enjoy the halftime show. But that's fine I'm not mad about it. Bad Bunny just isn't intended for me. I'm mature enough to know my personal tastes don't have to be catered to. I don't complain about the NFL having a halftime show not meant for me. My only complaint is with the people...

    I cannot believe the Falcons interviewed McDonald and then said to themselves "No, one of the losingest coaches alive is a much better candidate. We're so smart." After the Pearce stuff I want the Falcons to rehire Morris and Fontenot just so we can fire them again. The last two years have been...
