Dr. Who

I really hate walking around with a monkey on my back. For one thing, it makes putting a shirt on a constant onerous burden. And that doesn't even begin to consider the monkey's various hygienic habits or lack thereof.

Yes, I agree with that. I'd like to know why we targeted McGovern and were not apparently a player for Seumalo.

Where are you playing McGovern?

Yes, if AZ doesn't budge at all, they're going to be stuck with an unhappy WR. No one is taking the full brunt of that hit for them, even if you give DHop away. And Iron Maiden, you're going to be on an island if you blame Beane for that.

It's an issue. Maybe they sign Bobby Wagner as a contingency plan so they aren't forced to make a move, I dunno.

They need to get a legit goalie for next season and not rush Levi. If he is an exception and NHL ready next year, all the better. I'm hoping they can pry Saros away from the Preds in the offseason.

Goathead magic. They held on.

What, all he wants is something north of 230 million guaranteed. How can you not see that he is heroically fighting against the Man?

March Madness update for those who can't get away from this thread. San Diego St. just knocked Alabama out of the tournament. Miami has Houston on the ropes. Could be no one seeds left in the Elite Eight.

Makes sense.

Fella with a handle of IronMaidenBills most certainly has a different taste in music from me, and I think there's something a bit jejune in his hyperbolic rhetoric, but I also agree that Beane ought to feel urgency to make a significant move if there is one to reasonably be had (or even a little unreasonably . . . )

Well, I'd give that a laughing emoji, but when you really think about it, it's not really a risible matter.

Do they ever say a meeting didn't go well?

Years ago, I used to work in a Christian bookstore. Old folks would come in and ask for a large print, compact Bible. I'd tell them, you can have the tiny Bible or the large print, but you can't have both. Seems to me the Cardinals wanting not to retain any salary and also receive higher draft picks is the equivalent. No one is going for that, so compromise or maybe carry an expensive disgruntled WR on your roster for the year.

Yeah, I checked and figured I must be old and unable to navigate the website . . . which of course, still might be true

I'd probably have a heart attack just thinking about it.

That's the right call.

Pistols at dawn. My dog will act as seconds.

That's pretty much me all the time. I think I was a cat in a past life.

Small potatoes. I say we take the whole internet down.

Is that the equivalent of slow eyes for a qb?

Ahh, Virgil said nothing happens till page 114 about 27 minutes ago. He was pretty good at predicting in the Aeneid, so it might be so.

Torrance is not a scheme fit. Avila is a better choice.

Beane appears to be banking on Brown's athleticism and the view that injury set his development back. I hope his optimism is well-founded, but I would protect against it maybe not going that way by drafting a potential RT relatively early (not the first.)
