Posts from last thread:

can you explain this in hockey terms

What more can you do when you score a hattie in each period

Teddy bear toss nights > everything else

**** it Im listening to Ska all day

i don’t really care about them being a cup contender (don’t get me wrong I want them to win) I care about enjoyment and entertainment. Would rather watch games where they are scoring playing exciting hockey. Then watch a team try to grind a 1-0 or 2-1 victory.

In the 20 years that I’ve been a part of message board culture, I have been permabanned from every single message board that I’ve been a part of except for this one:

-Canuckscentral
-Canuckscorner
-Canucks.com
-Rajah.com
-Tpww.net
-Facebook
-LinkedIn

Although I’m pretty close to getting perma-axed on here, I would like to take this time to thank the mods for giving me many opportunities. I likely will get permabanned from here at some point, but it won’t be due to bias. The mods here have been pretty fair for the most part and so I respect that.

If you were who I think you were at CDC they never should have banned you.

You were funny.

I was posting there as Hindustan Smyl. I was doing pretty well over there but then made a tasteless Graham James/Sheldon Kennedy joke (Comparing it to the Canucks beating the King’s 8-2) and got punted. Really can’t help myself at times, lol.

Baseball money is................
well I can't even think of word.

$324 million??? Like GTFOH
I think a starting pitcher gets 28 starts on average. So like +$1,000,000 per start
The only athlete I think that is worth a contract like this is durant and lebron, maybe trout, or a prime age aaron rodgers.

AP source: Yankees sign pitcher Gerrit Cole to nine-year, $324M contract - Sportsnet.ca

That much money for a starting pitcher is stupid. An ace will probably start 31-33 games in a season. That’s roughly 20% of the entire season, assuming they constantly pitch complete games, which they don’t. I would be fine committing that kind of money to a guy who’s going to play every day. And it’s weird to me that the Yankees didn’t make such an offer to Harper or Machado last year, but would for a SP this year. They are getting an ace, but I tend to value hitters a lot more than SP’s.

Didn't you go on record stating that the Yankees would be "bonkers" to make an offer to Machado? Sounds to me like you've changed your tune.

1) "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt is the only reason why I still follow the WWE via You Tube.

2) I hope Colby Colvington smashes Usman in a few days (UFC). Colvington might be a douche, but he's good business. Heard that Kurt Angle will put the strap around Colvington's waste if Colvington wins.

I don’t recall that, nor do I think I’ve ever used that word.

It’s possible that I was trolling you........:-o. :-p

In all seriousness, you been watching any WWE lately? What do you think of The Fiend? I only watch WWE via YouTube clips and Wyatt is pretty much the only reason why I bother following.

Are you going to watch the Colvington/Usman UFC fight? Im going for Colvington.

Come on, HS. Let's not add HF to that list - you can do it.

Nah I haven’t watched WWE in months. But if you like good wrestling check out AEW.

Im not sure how much more money Boras needs. This guy is probably lowkey a billionaire. His family is set for generations.

Every massive contract has his name behind it.

just searched his net worth and it’s apparently 400M. I literally can’t even fathom having that much money. Never get people that are so obsessed with making so much money where they will never see 3/4’s of it.
