Jumbo explosive earth shattering trade in the works.

Lets just say -- anyone willing to give up the #1 or #2 picks needs to get in touch with me ASAP.
And since El Tino never reads the blog, that means Im willing to deal with The Commish.
I got nothin to lose, and since I expect to finish 5-8 or worse AGAIN, I'm willing to deal.

For those that show up, there is a HIGH probability Moms is bringing up some Mexican steaks --- made from real Mexicans -- so bring an appetite!

Keeper List

This list is for teams to list any player they KNOW they are keeping for the upcoming season (with a 2 round draft penalty for the keeper). However, this list IS NOT official until the first pick of the draft is made, we are simply keeping it as a courtesy for our new members.

If you are not comfortable adding your keepers to the list due to some kind of weird draft strategy, that's fine (asshole).

Again, just edit this post with your keepers rather than put them in the comments.

Truth in Advertising:

Tom Brady (will give up 2nd round draft pick)

Sam Handwhich:

Purple Jesus(2nd round)
Marshawn Lynch(4th round)

I am keeping Tony Romo and Clinton Portis.

Douche.

Mark Spitz: Michael Phelps couldn't have beaten me

Who'd have known......

That the Paraguay women's javelin team is where its at.
Enjoy Gents.

I did watch a BIT of the Olympics.

Another prima donna athlete

Jesus Tap-dancing Christ. What a bunch of over-hyped, over-paid drama queens we've created.

Mark Spitz is pissed because no one "invited" him to the Olympics

"I am going to sit there and watch Michael Phelps break my record anonymously? That's almost demeaning to me. It is not almost—it is."

Sweet!

More games in Reynolds!

As long as...

y0u pair him with guys with no ground game, Brock Lesnar may go undefeated. He's so much bigger than almost everyone he faces, and his ground game is very, very solid (Herring tried to roll on him and Lesnar just shoved him back into a defensive position with almost no effort).

Also, French rap just sounds ridiculous.

Wicked awesome career endings

Andruw Jones

On PTI today, Mr. Tony mentions that up until last year, Andruw was on pace to be a HOFer; I laughed, then looked here. If you look at the section 'Similar Batters through Age 30', JEEZUS!

1. Frank Robinson
   
2. Eddie Mathews
   
3. Johnny Bench
   
4. Al Kaline
   
5. Sammy Sosa
   
6. Ken Griffey
7. Ruben Sierra
   
8. Ron Santo
   
9. Juan Gonzalez
   
10. Duke Snider
    

5 HOFers, 1 for sure HOFer (Griff), 1 should be HOFer (Sosa), and 1 want to be HOFer (Santo).

What the hell happened to this guy? He's hitting under the Mendoza line, and doesn't look to be things around at this point...is this the greatest 'falling off the face of the earth' ever?

Question for the 'guar...

Does UF pay for this?

Do these kids get some kind of insurance policy by being athletes, or is this something that the parent's insurance has to take care of?

It's not in quatrains, but...

I know he'd never agree to it, but a trade to the Jets may not be the worst thing in the world. They should have a decent O-line by this point, they should have a running game with Thomas Jones, and their receivers would have to play a little harder knowing they don't have either of the rag armed freaks they were stuck with last year throwing to them.

Ouch. Why Antonio Gates was lame last year

THIS has GOT to hurt.

HFS. I had no idea.

Braves announcer Skip Caray dies | ajc.com


I guess not watching TV does leave you a little out of the loop.

Well, only LOOKS like a tough couple games for us

Clemson #9
USF #21
Wake #23

Other than that -- we should be golden !!!

BTW --- the Wolf was wondering if anyone has interested in running down to Columbia for the season opener.

Possible fight of the year coming up...

Watching hype for the Jon Fitch/GSP fight coming up.

Cyborg Wow!

Cyborg will easily dispatch Carano. Those two 140 pound ladies were going after each other. Cyborg throwing straight bombs and Baszler trying every sub in the books.

Cyborg throws punches better than any woman I've ever seen (better than most men in fact). Carano throws wild, slow, looping punches. Cyborg is going to demolish her pretty face straight down the pipe. Won't even be close!

The most exciting fight I saw on XC all night.

Margarito/Cotto...

instant classic, my beautiful bebbees.
