    so, if you ever can't find a home for some of those gifts, I can help you out......

    Well, I'm one that argued they should sign a top 10 guy, and then 2-3 others, in the past, so I won't criticize this. But, it is so out of character, they must really love him. As for the coming year, it is supposed to be a good year, and several high flying teams are out of the game. I'm hopeful they go all in this year, but I don't think I'm expecting it.

    Today is National Drink Wine day. This one, I will celebrate! (is it ok I use an ! here?)

    I would also endorse JD Hoyt's and Monte Carlo as good and cheaper than Manny's, but I LOVE Manny's.

    According to a 2 year old article, the limit is $10,000. so, pretty much spent it all on one guy. Wow.
  6. Mike Sixel
    so they spent all their money on 1 player?
  7. Mike Sixel
    What should it be?
  8. Mike Sixel
    I think Desmond will be a value buy for some team. There must be something going on there we don't know about....
  9. Mike Sixel
    Winner.

    That's like pointing out that it is ironic that they pass laws getting between a physician and her patients......there is no irony here at all. They do NOT believe in freedom. They believe in the freedom to be the same as them. Which, of course, is not freedom at all.

    If my choice is imposing religion on people, and limiting their first amendment rights, or paying too much taxes, I choose freedom every time.

    Fame is pretty meaningless to me. I'd rather have money, lots of money.
  13. Mike Sixel
    Triple crown, it comes with lots of money.......or eternal fame among baseball fans? Money, or fame? Money.

    Who is putting any "faith" in these? And, why do you care if Gleeman or anyone else likes the system? If it is so easy, let's see your team by team predictions for each of the next 5 years (as in, do it each year for the next 5 years), and see how you do compared to Pecota.

    I don't drink whiskey....and these aren't the BEST places, but I'd recommend these for sure: Butcher and the Boar Bachelor Farmer (pricey, possibly, the bar below is supposed to be awesome) Sanctuary (a bit pricey, but not outrageous) Chino Latino (not downtown, but not far) Saffron (love this place) Lake and Irving (not downtown, but not far) Northbound Smokehouse and Brewpub (not downtown, but not far) The following breweries also: Fulton (nice and close) Surly (I like the food too, some don't) Dangerous Man If none of those appeal to you, let me know, I can post A LOT more......

    Apparently in their obsession with the 2nd amendment, no Republican presidential candidate read the first amendment......Kasich wants to establish a government agency to export US Judeo-Christian values? This is why the middle east hates us, btw.......because they don't really believe that our leaders love the first amendment all that much....

    It's almost like people intentionally ignore that PECOTA and everyone else says this is the most likely set of outcomes, not a prediction of outcomes...... For example, the authors acknowledge more teams will win more than 90 than they project, but that you can't project with much certainty which ones those will be. And, what's a better projection system. Saying it isn't a good projector should be relative to other methods of projecting. That said......it is good harbinger that projection systems like them more. edit: I voted for 76-80, but the next grouping up would not surprise me at all. I'd say those are almost equally likely to be the outcomes. Picking one of those does not mean you are sure it will be that range, just that it is most likely of the ranges. It is probably more likely it is not that range, since there are many more outcomes outside it than in it.

    Not a brazil nut fan at all.
  19. Mike Sixel
    Huh, I must have missed that somehow.
  20. Mike Sixel
    No, the blurbs are short. I think only RP were mentioned after the list.
  21. Mike Sixel
    Me.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Top 10s for each team are up today. In addition to the above....Gonsalves, Burdi, Meyer make up the last 3 in the top 10. The overview talks almost completely about all the RP in the system and how hard they throw. If you aren't paying for this, I don't get it......
  23. Mike Sixel
    Not sure I see the upside, to offset the risks. From reading a lot of sci fi.....it could: A: make us all hate each other, and lead to violence B: make us more comfortable with feelings, and reduce jealousy, and reduce our uptightness, and lead to utopia. I bet on A right now.....
  24. Mike Sixel
    Well, this is an interesting question, frankly. Clearly we all dream about things our spouses won't like to see......
  25. Mike Sixel
    Nicely done....... I prefer cashews or pistachios (which I am eating now, or was just before I started typing).
