Have you been reading this thread, at all?

“He deserves credit for stockpiling assets in the form of draft picks, and I suppose there was some skill in selling relatively high on a few players.”

Deadspin micro-analyzed every Hinkie decision to the point where they were forced to disagree with everything he did.

“Their roster, as currently constructed, is not even close to the playoffs”

Gloating? All I’m doing is that weird thing where I try to, y’know, enjoy a team that’s doing reasonably well compared to preseason assumptions and has a fun new superstar (with another on the way!). That seems like the better way to be a sports fan.

Well, that and dumping on the shitpile teams we had five years ago.

Which of the draft picks have been complete busts? Unless you want to count the thousands of second-rounders that every team misses at about a 95 percent clip.

I remember a time Dick Butkus hit Gale Sayers, in the back, with a truncheon, before the ball had even been punted, and he was ON THE SAME DAMN TEAM

Remind me again who has said “We have the nukes so maybe we should use them”

Curt Schilling tried to have me thrown out of a stadium twice, both on nights he wasn’t pitching (once in Philly, once in Scranton for an exhibition game). I was a little kid and my uncle was high up in the front office, so I got to stand on the field for a minute or two once every few years. The first time, I was

My eventual wife almost got into a fist fight with Jenna Jameson.

I’m a family friend of the late Neil Reed, and had the opportunity to go see him play for Knight at Indiana a couple of times. This allowed me to meet with the team and the entire coaching staff, including Bobby Knight.
