Orange Crash

The other thing with the NFL is that the draft is much deeper than the NBA. You pass on the best guy in the draft in the NFL, you’re still quite likely to get an All-Pro.

In the NBA some years it seems like if you don’t have the #1 pick, you’re just getting filler for your roster.

Nobody’s disputing that he’s an above average pitcher, but he’s not an ace. 2018 he was an ace, but that looks like an outlier due to an unusually low HR/FB rate

It’s not just his HR rate, it’s that his HR per Fly Ball rate dropped. That will regress to the mean.

Oh, then we can get rid of the competitive balance tax because spending and winning aren’t correlated.

a) Kaepernick wins his grievance, proving that the NFL retaliated against him for his protest - also gets a much larger amount of money than he settled for. And he would also never play in the NFL again.

b) Kaepernick loses his…

1) Cousins signed for $84,000,000, which is 8 figures, not 9

There’s two reasons they might have settled that don’t have anything to do with PR:

To be fair, Paul was only a couple of months past being a teenager when he wrote that.

It is. He gives her head, she doesn't reciprocate.

Does it count as a sweepstakes when the owners have already agreed upon the team that Harper is going to be funneled to and the price they’re going to pay for him, and are just waiting him out until he finally agrees to their terms?

In a non-collusive market, some team would have swooped in at this point and blown away…

Who’s the new guy?

Yes, I know. It’s this thing called a joke.

THE FIRST PERSON WHAT?!?!

“Since I saw... THE TIME KNIFE."

I thought the 2016 coup was about trying to get Sid Onion released
