  1. It's about right. Except for the Checking number. Mine is much lower.
  2. Your watch is fast Eleven. Or Chucks server is slow.
  3. I believe the Golden Globes were the big award before the Oscars. And if so, this is going to be an interesting fight. Best Picture Drama: Revenant Best Picture Comedy: (Yeah I don't get it either.) Martian Best Actor Drama: Leonardo DiCaprio Best Actor Comedy: Matt Damon Talk about two heavies that have never won going against each other. Oh, and Sly winning best supporting actor in Creed? He was good, but not sure about this one.
  4. Good news is. Theodore looks like the real deal. I like what I'm seeing from the kid.
  5. As bad as we bag on Stoner. He hasn't been that bad this season. He is still a pylon. But he's been playing those gritty defensive shifts.
  6. Undocumented workers get a license. But, for most of you, on the top right hand corner of the license will be printed Federal Limits Apply. Mine does not, but if it says that, that means you get pulled over, they call INS.
  7. AFter you buy a share of a pro sports team. You can buy this. End of Playboy mansion parties as Hefner pad put up for sale for $200mAlthough you might need to spend a few million disinfecting.
  8. $1.3 billion. You could buy a pro team with that amount.
  9. Looked it up. It was Game on Dude. I had $5 to win on Imperative at 26.5 - 1
  10. hmm. Who am I thinking of then? Because I won a good stack on Imperative in that race.
  11. Latest: Mexican official says Penn meeting helped in capture Hahaha. Penn better just disappear. The bounty on his head is probably bigger than his ego. Maybe.
  12. Sad thing is. Everything they wrote is true. Maybe not written to absolute proper English. Except for 1. F the police.
  13. Wasn't Imperitive the horse that beat Chrome at like CharlesTown or something like that? I'll have to watch a replay since I missed the race.
  14. You are right. I was pulling the number from Cot's. But I believe he doesn't take into account the arbitration numbers. In my sheet, I have it at $173 million. Which blows by other years opening day payroll. Which again, might be the reason why he is reluctant to spend more. But if you take out Hamilton's dead money, it's right back into that comfort zone.
  15. I actually think the CBT is a smokescreen for the real issue. Arte does not want to go over a certain yearly payroll. Which is fine. He knows how much the Angels really are spending. From front office salaries, to scouting, to whatever payments the Angels are making to whatever entities. People say he is a businessman. And if that's true, then he knows his bottom line. For simplicity sake. Opening day payroll. 2011 $141 2012 $151 2013 $137 2014 $154 2015 $146 2016, right now, we are standing at $147 million. That seems to be within the comfort range. And I really think that this is his true comfort number, and that the CBT is his way of saying he's spending near max.
  16. I hear those situations turn ugly. Like people suing because you left them out. Even though you asked them, and they said no. Or you asked them, and they said yes, but didn't have the money and you bought it without them. All sorts of excuses, most of which are fabricated, so they can get some out of it.
  17. Here is a question for those that bought a powerball. Did you also buy a Superlotto and Megamillions? I bought all three, since hey, $7 million is still $7 million.
  18. Thanks for the nightmares Redondo. Next time I have an itch on top of my head, I'm going to check it for teeth.
  19. That is good news. I know around Christmas they said he was skating. But it sounded like they were taking a real careful approach. I'm fine with them taking their time since this was a concussion issue. Plus we are so deep that we are sitting a few dmen.
  20. We won't be under the cap next year. Especially if we spend big on a long term FA this year. Keep saying that we have money being freed up next year all you want. But the reality is, our farm sucks, and we don't have cheap replacements. Sure, we lose salary next season. But for CBT purposes, we are already at $145 million. We lose 2 starting pitchers or at least 1 1/2 starting pitchers and 2 relievers next season. If we sign someone for $20 AAV this season, that's bumps us up to $165 million. 2 good relievers are about $5 million a piece. That's $175. A good starter will be at least $12 for a 3/4 range. So that's $187. It also means that we are all in on Garrett Richards. If he can't handle the #1, then we truly are going way over in order to be competitive next season.
  21. Report: NHL to hold ‘special’ expansion meeting later this monthDoes not sound good for Quebec.
