  1. Just throwing this out there.... Does anyone have interest in Eddie Lacy? There's a minimal chance he's getting a multi-year contract, given the constant battle with his weight the last 2 years. When healthy and motivated, he is a solid goal line back and someone you could trust running between the tackles.
  2. The Vikings were mentioned in this article posted on The Ringer. Sounds like Slick Rick is planning on making a big splash in FA.
  3. You guys! Today is National Banana Cream Pie Day!! My grandmother (RIP) used to make the best banana cream pie with a graham cracker crust... Mmmm. Today is also National Old Stuff Day! It's spring cleaning season, and it's time to get rid of your old stuff. I'm working on getting rid of clothes that have been sitting in storage containers and other things in my closet. General rule of thumb is if you can't remember the last time you wore that shirt, give it to good will. Today is also National Read Across America Day! The book I'm reading now is A Life In Parts by Bryan Cranston. Learning more about what he had to do before finally striking gold playing Walter White in Breaking Bad is quite interesting. On this day in 1972, NASA launched Pioneer 10! The first man made object that was built to leave our solar system and see if there's any forms of life in a galaxy far, far away! Finally, on this day in 1983, the compact disc made its' debut in the US and Europe! What was the first CD album you bought?
  4. I'll take it for his first extended playing time this spring.
  5. Right. And, I know we've wanted to write off Detroit for 5 consecutive seasons, but they were competitive too. IIRC the AL West was supposed to be the tire fire last season and Houston was supposed to cruise to an easy division title.
  6. Never. Why pay 3-5 cents more per gallon for the middle option?
  7. I hope that's his approach all ST... Minus the getting caught stealing part.
  8. It's tough to think when I don't have beers or vodka in my system....
  9. 30 a day?? No way, no how. Good luck trying to get out of bed tomorrow...
  10. What are some things to think about today, Chi? Please fill my head with things to think about.
  11. Rooting for Granite today! Hope he steals 12 bases...
  12. Yes. Concur. 100x concur.
  13. Nice! I almost want to congratulate you!
  14. Darrell Revis was cut by the Jets today. Talk about crashing down to earth. He used to be the most feared CB in the league. Now he's been getting torched for 2 straight seasons.
  15. That would be a nightmare scenario IMO. Treading water with another 40 year old veteran while young guys don't get a chance.
  16. Yep, for sure. Doctors and surgeons need to be conservative when it comes to young people and their injuries.
  17. Rotate Buxton + Polanco and Mauer + Vargas, and that's my ideal June lineup.
  18. Concur, Brock. Start him at #2 in the lineup. If he struggles, he turns into the #7 or #8 hitter. If he struggles more, then it's the bench.
  19. Got sick from Burger King's fish sandwich. Haven't stepped foot in their establishments since. Since then I have not ordered a fish sandwich at any fast food restaurant. I'm also one who doesn't send food back at sit down restaurants, unless it's exceptionally bad... Well, last fall I took Miss Vanimal at that time to an expensive, nationwide steak and seafood restaurant to celebrate a work win. By the time we got our food 1 hour later the sides + steak were cold and inedible. Got the waiter's attention and sent it back.... 20 minutes later we have food again, but the replacement steak was charred on the bottom. The new sides were fine, had a few good bites of steak, and half of it was left on the plate. At the end, I still had to pay the full bill, and I was still hungry.
  20. I'd be intrigued to see if Patterson has the vision to read blocks and make it as a RB... He's shown he can do that on kick returns, but it's much different to see the blocks 10+ yards away off a kickoff than 3+ yards away out of the shotgun.
  21. Agreed. I don't know enough about the x's and o's anymore to go in-depth on it. Clearly Boudreau's system is a much better fit than Yeo's. And there is no divide in the locker room anymore between young players and veterans, which Yeo caused by continuing to cater to the veterans.
  22. It's well beyond time to move on from him. Good luck to whoever signs him. Jamaal Charles would be a worthy gamble. The RBs in the draft are supposed to be pretty strong, so I think they could find their next feature back in the draft this year.
  23. If true, that would explain why the internet is moving at a snail's pace at my work.
