Being the highest paid player, he had one of the lowest “bang for your buck” values on the team. I loved the guy, thought he was always the true ace (sorry Gerrit) ... until this year when he just lost his stuff completely. It was good to dump his salary. It was just bad that we had to lose McGuire to do it.

The Pirates deals look bad in total, but if you haven’t paying attention (you haven’t) Liriano has been steaming garbage this year and is the Pirates. highest paid player. Makes perfect sense to trade him and dump that salary to free up cash.

This is a nice piece of performance art.

“HB2 isn’t as bad as people put it out to be”. Oh, well that’s all the evidence i need.

or a better question - what makes you think libertarianism is not a childish fantasy? Is there evidence of it working anywhere? Do you know anything about history or economics? Do you realize government involvement strongly correlates with all significant economic growth in all of human history?

then you’re a childish moron.

that’s right! you could throw your vote away and increase the odds your most despised candidate could win!

I heard that when Ichiro Suzuki learned the Seattle Mariners were going to give him #51, the same number worn by pitching great Randy Johnson, he sent Johnson a personal message promising not to bring shame to the uniform.

Precision is what distinguishes us humans from the non-human animals of the earth planet. Kevin Draper, proceed with your self-discipline promptly. If you are missing your metal disciplinary tongs, a set is available at BusterPoseysKneeLigaments’ office.

“Donald’s power as a right-handed hitter....”

No dog in the fight, and even to me those calls were pretty nuts. Home team, super duper star, i kind of get it. But really that was a bit much.

White dude here. weird, I’ve been playing spades for about 30yrs, along with lots of other white people (and black people). Don’t think the familiarity with this game falls along race lines. But go ahead on with your shtick.

Seems like this headline should read a little more “Tig was irritated by Amy Schumer saying things about her that were out of line”.

Lebron saying “I have three kids and am a man” makes me laugh so hard.

this entire paragraph is bullshit. nobody flops and whines like LeBron other than his mentor Wade. What do you think is going to happen to him when his signature move is basically tucking the ball like a football and driving 3 to 4 steps through traffic like a running back? There’s gonna be contact. Its not like he…

no, the guy who flails at the slightest contact, and demands the refs call fouls when he gets looked at wrong is the the bitch. Especially when that same guy, or bitch, goes out of his way to step over a dude rather than around him. That’s a bitch move and a ball slap was due.

How about - GSW is just very very good?

1) Pittsburgher here - I used to love, and now resent the Steelers for a whole host of reasons. fuck them.

Through super low interest rate bonds that may very well result in a net loss for the city over their life span.

What happened in Seattle is exactly why we need more women in government.
