  1. But, again, why is gold a safe haven? Other than it is shiny? And, would you have felt that way when it plummeted? I just don't get it. I mean, it's not like gold held its value and just goes up all the time....
  2. I still don't understand why gold matters as some kind of safe haven......it's shiny metal, with no real intrinsic value (ok, that's not true, but we don't make MUCH with it other than decorations). The emotional attachment to gold, it just seems odd to me in 2017....
  3. And, NVIDIA ends up for the day.... Pretty sure I'm going to lock in some gains next week. Maybe. Buffet would be annoyed with me...
  4. Based on what, for WWE? Not sure it matters, not sure I can buy them, but I am in interested.
  5. I saw bitcoin yesterday....wish I'd have followed you on that ride!
  6. Nvidia couldn't wait 1 more week to lose it's value......just 1 more week....
  7. The defense was really bad, but that was largely before Buxton, Kepler, Rosario played every day. The catching and 3B and SS were, admittedly, suspect. And any time Grossman or DanSan played, ouch.
  8. Interesting. If I factor in expectations, I'd probably raise it a bit, as my expectations were pretty low for the OF group.
  9. He did say "wait for the pitching"....and the Twins were 16th in runs scored, only 30 from 10th. That sounds like a C to me.
  10. I can't imagine anyone has forgotten how bad it was.
  11. I would expect that over time, that hitters would get better at their craft. Two of these OFers were pretty much rookies.....so I guess I'm not sure what the point of the first sentence is, are we expecting fully formed MLB players in rookie seasons?
  12. 5 year plan? How is trading Dozier for near ready players a 5 year plan?
  13. That would be bad, imo. Some players get better, like Koskie, some don't. But, if you are going to lose, you should try to, you know, take risks and let players grow (or not). I take it you'd just move Sano to DH now?
  14. I do realize Molly didn't care about preparing HIS team for the future, yes.
  15. If they are only getting 1 of the top 5 prospects from the Dodgers, I understand why it hasn't happened yet....
  16. I'm good with these grades, agree completely. How DanSan still has a job is just confusing me...
  17. Congrats! I did not expect that.
  18. shopify is a LONG term play for me. I thought NVIDIA was too, but I might just have to lock in some cash next year to pay off some debt. Especially if they lower tax rates next year....
  19. Maybe the point is that no matter how good Dozier is, they won't win w/o some pitching.....that those arguing the Twins should keep Dozier are ignoring that they can't win with this pitching staff. Maybe. Not sure. That's how I read it.
  20. I really hope you all bought NVIDIA when I first mentioned it.....insane returns the last 12 months.
  21. The next recruiting class is ranked as the worst in the "big 10"....LAST., according to 24x7 sports. Not gonna cut it....
  22. Well written, Nick. I could drop a grade or two by a third (is that how +/- works?) here and there, but overall agree.
  23. Hey, if Reyes is on the table, I'd do Dozier for him straight up......so, ya, that would be great!
  24. did they lose the bowl game yet?
