Another year another missing thank you card. At first I chalked it up to the redhead intercepting all your mail but she’d have to get bored after a while, no? And with the Padres playing so well you’d think she’d stay home. Maybe it’s just a lack of gratitude after all. Anyway stay careful out there.

For about a week or so everything has clearly been Tre White's fault. Try to keep up.

Calling what the Dodgers have been doing the last 10 years or so as “building” is not correct. Buying? Sure. Who is the best pitcher they’ve developed since Kershaw? Their pitching coaching has wrecked more elbows than a bad plumber.

Dodgers gifted another game yesterday by umpires. They’re the Taylor Swift of MLB.

You’d watch that and DVR it.

Because he’s trying to tank the franchise so your Patriots can take over the world. Either that or he signed Tre to a contract with a low base with incentives.

I wouldn’t reply but the board doesn’t employ a clown emoji so: 🤡

I’ve learned this week that I’m supposed to hate Tre White so let’s throw Kyle in too. Also, Fred Jackson is a real jerk.

Jokes on you. Diggs is coming off an ACL and you gave him huge $. Yet here you are mocking the Bills again..

And there it is. The people who are complaining KNOW. It’s not their opinion, it’s their knowledge and expertise. The people who aren’t complaining are just ignorant dupes who will never measure up to the true genius of the complainers.

Why aren’t you whining about Darrick Forrest? He’s cheap and coming off an injury.

You couldn’t think of a more negative spin than disaster? How about cataclysm? Apocalypse? Famine? Plague? Pandemic? We signed a guy who is a very smart player, an asset in the locker room, and a mentor. We did it for close to league minimum with a chance for him to earn more via on field contributions. I haven’t seen anything in this thread with any substantive alternative. It’s all just keyboard jockey GMs. It’s like political polls saying candidate x would lose to “generic Republican/Democrat” but as soon as they name names, candidate x is ahead in the poll again. Is it certain that White will contribute on the field in 2025? No. It’s also possible that his recovery was rushed and 2024 wasn’t a real reflection of what he can be. The risk is low and there aren’t realistic alternatives. If this was Joe Smith who had the same career path for the Bears and then had a rough 2024 on the Jags and Seahawks people wouldn’t be trashing the guy, but because it’s Tre who did so much for this franchise, it seems to be a requirement to bad mouth him. It’s weird.

It’s already documented in this thread but some folks have to whine ad/or do the whole alpha male keyboard GM thing all the time. Unless time stood still we signed a guy to play 23 months after an Achilles while the Rams signed him to start 11 months after an Achilles. See the difference? Spoiler alert: 23-11=12.

Just be happy that you have Diggs now.

If you had doubts I might be ok, but knowing you have serious doubts…… He only gets the “nice chunk of change” if he hits incentives. That’s good news though, this way everyone can complain now matter what. It’s either: “terrible signing” or “sure he had a great year but that’s still too much money”. Everybody wins.

When was the memo about Tre White of all people being the new escape goat? A 1.4M commitment to one of the best leaders the team has ever seen draws angst derision and mocking? All the board GMs mad we didn’t get someone else without any specific names. Maybe we should have got Surtain and a 7th for a 6th as long as he agreed to a pay cut. Sheesh.

You’re not alone. Even if his “music” wasn’t the horrible scourge trash garbage waste excrement that it truly embodies, the BS he was slinging at Bills fans was enough on its own.

I agree that it must have changed at some point. Unless this is a Mandela Bears thing I know it was illegal at some point.

Not sure about Romo but JJ Watt was a total douche bag for…… ….hang on I’m looking up his age…..36 years.

Go. The whole town is great. If you golf bring clubs if you can get on the Otesaga. I went a long time ago and I’m sure the exhibits rotate but the plaques alone are worth going. Check out Doubleday Field down the street.

Two Shea.

I thought Coachella made purses for women and Tom Brady.

Isao Aoki holing out to win a tournament.

Probably more if he had a good coach like Rex.

Maybe he misunderstood the meaning of “staffers”.
