All the beanballs they are going to wear this year because of the commissioner letting them off the hook will make up for it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtle28 Posted February 17, 2020 Author Share Posted February 17, 2020 Listening to Corea’s comments in response to Suzuki’s comments from last Friday is unbelievable to me. Some of these players should’ve been suspended along with the Astros Manager and General Manager. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Draper Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Breaking: President Trump Pardons former 49ers Owner Eddie Debartolo, Jr. at White House He is one of the GREATEST owners in NFL history ( Halas, JKC, Rooney, Mara's) and was one of the first owners who recognized the value of treating the players well- best travel, first class all the way. Glad he's back in good standing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtle28 Posted February 18, 2020 Author Share Posted February 18, 2020 (edited) Convicted of a gambling fraud scandal while being an owner of one of the most popular NFL Franchises in the 80s and 90s. Sorry, this shouldn't have been done. His players and Bill Walsh left a great mark on the history of the NFL, but Eddie Debartolo left nothing but a skid mark on a pair of fresh white underwear. Oh, I get it now. They had a bunch of ex-football players there today on the WH lawn to say some good things. It's a press opportunity.

Doc Draper Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 It’s Louisiana! You want to open a casino, restaurant, or sell stuff from a push cart- You gotta pay time play in that state. Of course, you’re right, he broke the law, but that really didn’t have anything to do with him being a trailblazing owner who invested in his players and treated them well. And of course, he was very successful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turtle28 Posted February 20, 2020 Author Share Posted February 20, 2020 He is totally overselling this as the best thing since sliced bread. Sometimes Schefter’s exuberance is too much. It’s overkill! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naptownskinsfan Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 My mind was just blown away about the Mike Lieberthal bobblehead on Dwight's desk in The Office. Why does Dwight, who is not a sports fan, happen to have a Mike Lieberthal bobblehead on his desk? Look no further than Wikipedia. His full name is Michael Scott Lieberthal. Well done.

Jeezy Fanatic Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 So been MIA lately because I just had my second son a month ago. Time continues to become more scarce, but I promise I'll stop in more as the offseason goes to trash our moves. No need to thank me for my service. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that you're here right now rather than sleeping is amazing. Congrats on your 2nd. We're done at 2 kids (girl and boy). My son (#2 kid) was born in 2018, 3 months before I turned 49. So yeah...I feel you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
