Agreed. It’s just a stupid name for it.  They don’t call a book advance an Idea Bonus. 

It’s called a signing bonus, it’s more an advance on salary designed to manipulate the cap.

They could have easily hid behind the “it’s what the contract says!” and “we can use that money on new players!” and the fans would’ve fallen in line.

I think that this is a gamble that Luck might actually want to play again some day. If they burn bridges with him now, it would guarantee that he’d never come back as a Colt. This way, he just might.

Objectively speaking, this is the very least the Colts could do

Seems like both of those takes are anti-VAR. Where’s the contradiction?

Pitcher’s aren’t allowed to wear the white hats because it could be a disadvantage for the hitters. Basically a batter’s eye on their head. Though the Star & Stripes hats had white crowns in 2010 and I don’t remember them doing this.

they also agreed pitchers on the white uniformed teams had to wear black hats so as to not have the possibility of hiding the ball in their motion. just a rousing success all around.

I crankily woke up from an unsatisfactory nap, saw an alert with this result on my phone, and immediately felt refreshed.

I can’t bring myself to cheer for Palace because of an irrational fear of Roy Hodgson that I had as a child, but damn if that second goal didn't feel sweet. 

Rece Davis should not worry. Desmond Howard’s a poser.

White people like Desmond Howard because he makes Stuart Scott look like Malcolm X.

I didn't want to star this, but you are really twisting my arm.

“Depends. Is she pregnant?”

Vidic was basically Maldini against the other 18 Premiership sides and turned into Titus Bramble whenever Torres stepped on the field. It was marvelous.

Peak Torres is still my favorite Liverpool player. Of course Gerrard, Suarez and the current crop are all up there, but for that three year spell he was the best #9 in the world and the most entertaining player I’ve ever seen in a Liverpool shirt.

Nemanja Vidic can finally sleep at night.

Correction: they used the Torres money to by Andy Carroll AND Luis Suarez. Sure, Carroll was a bust - but I’m not sure Liverpool lost that transfer window all things considered. 

Very confused by that wording. The Liverpool golden generation is now.

Good excuse to post this gem:
