I'm just going to play chess with Creed until this whole thing blows over.

Doesn't surprise me that you'd hang out with Scott Stapp.

He sucks, you know.

Creed is better than Sister Hazel.

They're both better than The Regrets.

And cooler.
I think he's more of the appendix of Desipio.  Yeah, it's here and you're vaguely aware of it, but only if reminded.  The only time anyone notices it is when it ruptures (on Weebs in the video game thread).  Beyond that, though, it's basically useless and offers no redeeming value.

How's the visibility?

I'd suggest someone kick Kevin Gregg in the mouth, but then how would he be able to breathe?

Damnit!  I need to know what sort of voodoo thing they'll be sticking into Kenney and Hendry to make sure they win the World Series.

Pretty good interview (if you ignore all the boring Padres stuff) with Crane's rumored replacement. Sounds like a total statqueen. Part 3 gets into his drafting philosophy.

QuoteI'd say there were two competitive theories at that time, personified on the one hand by Earl Weaver and on the other hand by Gene Mauch. Weaver believed in the three-run homer, and Mauch believed in little ball.

From my standpoint it was the Eric Walkers and the Bill James who I think were able to very adequately support the Earl Weaver approach to the game in terms of overall success and what created the highest probability for success.

Crain's staying put.  See, he has the backing of Al Yellon.  Crane's qualification?  He wants to be like the Red Sox.

God dammit. You're right.

QuoteChicago Cubs chairman Crane Kenney has an agreement in place with Tom Ricketts to stay in his current capacity as the team is being sold by Tribune Co. to the Ricketts family, according to ESPN 1000.

The agreement is for multiple years, a source close to Kenney told the radio station.
