OT: Other Sports 83

[Kurtosis]

Trading guys that hit as good as Smith did year 1 to get a rental is what teams that don’t play in the big boy market do. They won’t re-sign him either. Ricketts is a f***, doesn’t matter.

What if they re-sign him though?

God bless TLEH. Can't you take a day off from your doom boner? Let us enjoy this for a few days before you bring us down.

They aren’t

 

[TLEH]

If they do I’ll be happy because it’ll mean they spent a f*** ton of money.

 

[Kurtosis]

They aren’t

Guess we’ll see.

Just the reality of Chicago fandom. Shitty owners that don’t care about winning.

I mean... the ceiling right now in Chicago is a mediocre Cubs team seemingly not willing to spend big. We're in a sports winter here.

But Illini football is fun!

I understand that. I ask for one day of not being miserable about Chicago sports. Bears are going to bring my mood back down soon enough.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Aw man, Illini….

 

[Mrfenn92]

Cody Bellinger to the Yankees with $5 million in cash for relief pitcher Cody Poteet

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Just what Sox needed another soon to be 30 yr old C who cant hit worth a damn

The Cubs had purchased his contract a few weeks ago

 

[IU Hawks fan]

Who cares? They need bodies, nothing more than a backup catcher.

Can't imagine putting any effort into giving a crap about who's on the roster this year.

 

[Behn Wilson]

Wish Cubs would have kept Belli, oh well.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Cubs are poised to be by far the best team in Chicago with barely any effort on their part, and they're making weak money-saving trades and signing whatevers in free agency (okay, this is a bit much, Tucker is good, but still though).

.... yay....

I don't really care who's on the roster for the next decade, truth be told.

Pretty much.

Meanwhile, it finally became public that Justin Ishbia wanted to buy the team (had heard this privately about a year ago). That's had me depressed all week knowing he'll end up with the Twins.
