95 percent of mena suvari’s weight is in her ass. im not impressed.
/i’d still fuck her
July 7th, 2009 at 8:26 AM
Because small market team’s best strategy is to trade superstars during their low cost years. We’ll see how that works out for ya Brauny!
July 7th, 2009 at 8:29 AM
She was in the choir! Great work there Daily Mail Reporter… if that is your real name.
July 7th, 2009 at 8:32 AM
What?
July 7th, 2009 at 8:33 AM
wait – she was in choir in American Pie … American Beauty was the one where she got nekkid for Kevin Spacey
July 7th, 2009 at 8:35 AM
DAMMIT
July 7th, 2009 at 8:37 AM
I read this as him saying that as a middle infielder he’s gotten this call on runners before. But then, I confused American Pie and American Beauty.
July 7th, 2009 at 8:38 AM
That’s the way I read it too – which makes me wonder why he was in such a tizzy when the other team got the same benefit. You can’t have it both ways.
July 7th, 2009 at 8:39 AM
Love me some Cavallari.
July 7th, 2009 at 8:40 AM
See, you never hear that about Lauren Conrad.
July 7th, 2009 at 8:45 AM
Doesn’t it kind of belittle the evil perpetrated by Heinz when Fritzel abused his daughter for twenty-four years and he only did it for two months, baby and cellar free? Is there a high exchange rate on sick fuckedness between Austria and and South Africa?
July 7th, 2009 at 8:46 AM
Can you explain this?
July 7th, 2009 at 8:46 AM
Even the people screwing Lauren Conrad don’t want to screw Lauren Conrad.
July 7th, 2009 at 8:49 AM
TBL, why do you enjoy mocking the Pirates? nearly every player in a rookie league game is on a 5 year plan to aaa, maybe. the overwhelming majority of the guys in that game (every rookie league game) will never get anywhere near the majors. i don’t understand what is so hilarious about these guys.
/i’m honestly looking for an answer, this isn’t a rhetorical question
July 7th, 2009 at 8:50 AM
The Brewers don’t spend. Help is not on the way.
Yours,
TBL
July 7th, 2009 at 8:50 AM
What Jeter is angry about is that the Ump admitted that’s what he did, straight told him a rule that isn’t a rule. It’s like if an NBA ref admitted to a player that it’s not traveling if Lebron is doing it.
July 7th, 2009 at 8:52 AM
Blizzard Beach > Typhoon Lagoon
Lauren Conrad > Cavalarri
July 7th, 2009 at 8:54 AM
SS – I’m rooting for those 2 guys.
I actually forgot a pirates post yesterday – i looked at the ATL-Wash box score and the 2 ‘best players’ highlighted … both were Pirates wearing pirates hat. wasn’t an error … they were guys the pirates dealt. figured that was too much knife-twisting.
nothing against Pitt …
July 7th, 2009 at 8:54 AM
The Brewers don’t spend. Help is not on the way.
Only teams in NY, Boston, Chicago and LA deserve to be good. The rest are feeder teams.
Yours,
TBL
July 7th, 2009 at 8:54 AM
Plus, it’s hard to upgrade your pitching when the best available starters are Penny, Doug Davis, and (one hit complete game shut out) Jarrod Washburn. He still sucks.
July 7th, 2009 at 8:55 AM
Dude groping 15 year olds in a wave pool = not cool. I hope he finds himself the gropee of some very large man wearing orange.
July 7th, 2009 at 8:56 AM
Hawks re-sign Mike Bibby for 3 years, $18 million. Sure nobody cares but me, but still it’s sports news.
July 7th, 2009 at 8:58 AM
hell yes.
July 7th, 2009 at 8:58 AM
It’s only OK for the Pirates to deal their players to the Yankees and Red Sox.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:01 AM
Who does spend?
My Reds spent a truckload on a dogshit closer. Doesn’t mean it was a wise decision. Spending for the sake of spending is a terrible strategy.
The Brewers haven’t fucked up in awhile and did offer CC a lot; of course it wasn’t enough. Can’t blame them for not matching, though.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:04 AM
I hate to defend him on this, because I disagree with league enforced contraction, and not big on the salary cap myself. but TBL is big proponent of a cap and floor, as well as contraction.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:04 AM
Oguchi Onyewu signs a three year deal with AC Milan.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:04 AM
so everytime a player the pirates traded has a good day, it gets a post? are you going to post everytime a player the bucs acquired plays well? i missed the post mocking the braves for trading charlie morton after he threw 6 innings of 1 hit ball (with a lengthy rain delay in there).
July 7th, 2009 at 9:05 AM
There is no way this http://kristin-cavallari.celebscentral.net/photo/92755/ is better than that http://lauren-conrad.celebscentral.net/photo/123684/
July 7th, 2009 at 9:07 AM
well, those pictures didn’t support your argument.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:07 AM
ATLDan, your source for breaking contract news.
/I’m meh on the Bibby deal. At least there’s a long term solution now.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:09 AM
This isn’t a spending issue. The Brewers spent a lot on Dave Duncan castoffs Suppan and Looper, and they’ve been awful. They issue is that there isn’t much of a trade market in baseball with so few teams not out of the race/willing to take on money. There are (according to Olney and Law, etc.) no available starters who are much above league average. This is an availability issue. You can’t trade for pitchers who teams aren’t moving, and any kind of “blow em away” offer would likely be moving a piece you need.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:09 AM
Well, this means Jeff Teague will rot on the bench for the next couple of years like Acie Law did, but with Bibby, Crawford and Joe we definitely have a lot of back court options that Woodson will undoubtedly find a way to screw up.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:10 AM
No, the system needs to be changed so you dont have people spending 200 mil and others spending 30 mil.
and if Bibby’s staying … do the Hawks start Crawford and Johnson at the 2-3?
July 7th, 2009 at 9:11 AM
until there’s a cap, sparty, the pirates (along with the brewers, marlins, etc) are trying to win in the only way they can. they need to load up and have a bunch of guys come up at once, and you control them for a few years. if it doesn’t happen, you blow it up and try again.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:12 AM
If that keeps Marvin Williams from seeing valuable minutes, I’m all for it.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:13 AM
The best available starter is Erik Bedard. But Taguchi I do agree with you bout the Brewers and spending…they def are a mid-range team spending-wise. They gave big contracts to Suppan and Looper, as you stated, and they offered CC a TON of money…just not Yankees money.
My Phils sources seem to think that they are going to sign Pedro.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:13 AM
Not likely. Crawford will be the sixth man, but the minutes should be split pretty evenly. Atlanta is trying to hammer out a deal with Zaza Pachulia before working on Marvin Williams’ deal since Zaza is an UFA and Marvin is a RFA.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:14 AM
TBL…you gonna post something about this?
July 7th, 2009 at 9:14 AM
More parity in MLB than any of the other pro leagues.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:15 AM
Can’t help but wonder if the request to be traded is not implied anytime a player makes this sort of request.
@Jay V: If your sources are correct, I think it’s a mistake. I’d rather see Carrasco than the corpse of Pedro Martinez at CBP.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:16 AM
i agree. i have no problem with what they are doing. which is why I am not in favor of the league contracting a team. if a team blows themselves up and cannot make any money, let them just fold.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:17 AM
Fact.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:18 AM
spencer, check back with us at 930.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:18 AM
Exactly. And the players salaries aren’t artificially held down by anything other than collusion. I love when really conservative free market capitalist Republicans (not that I’m calling TBL this, obviously) whine about a salary cap, when such a thing goes against what should be there core beliefs.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:19 AM
He’s planning a post on where Lebron plans to live post-2010 and which C_L_E hangouts he’ll be frequenting.
/cagey scenester’d
July 7th, 2009 at 9:20 AM
Psshhh. Like that’s news.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:20 AM
Forgot about Bedard. Though its a ballsy team that would give up anything for his gimpy ass. Let’s see how he does tonight (if he does pitch tonight).
July 7th, 2009 at 9:22 AM
Ask Baron Davis how he like’s playing with Elton Brand.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:24 AM
80 games left in the season. could you/would you entertain moving Fielder/Braun for some rising stud stars and another ace? Gallardo and another No. 1 plus 2 more quality young bats could win this division next year
July 7th, 2009 at 9:25 AM
ha! that is in my post.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:26 AM
entertain a trade involving ryan braun? you crazy?!?!?!?
fielder is a bitch…trade the fuck outta him.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:28 AM
you nailed it. Woodson will most likely fuck up JT like he did Law.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:28 AM
spencer – hadn’t seen till now. thanks.
clown – the ‘parity’ argument has nothing to do with 10 different winners in 8 years (or whatever it is). the level playing field is the argument. 200 mil vs. 30 mil. not level.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:28 AM
could you/would you entertain moving Fielder/Braun for some rising stud stars and another ace?
you would KILLLLLLLLLLL the brewers if they did that. you’ve heard of those guys, so trading them means they’ve given up. no matter how much sense the deal makes.
also, you’re not getting a stud ace and good prospects for either of those guys. one or the other.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:29 AM
You won’t get any argument from me on that.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:29 AM
They’d be trading Fielder because A. he is going to start making the big arbitration money while Braun is at least a year behind him and B. they have Matt Gamel, who has no position as long as Fielder is on the roster.
I don’t think they could get an Ace AND prospects for Fielder though, teams hold on to pitching. Melvin should certainly try.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:32 AM
Fielder for Matt Cain? Can Kung Fu Panda still play third or is that out for the season?
July 7th, 2009 at 9:34 AM
Per the Bibby deal, Cavs should make an offer to Josh Childress now, as this probably extends the Hawks past what they want to spend.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:34 AM
So the fact that more teams win in baseball means the playing field is not level? Or that the high revenue teams are putting more money into their product? I’m not sure I understand.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:36 AM
No way does SF do that.
agree with scripty on Josh Childress. One of my faves.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:38 AM
“Oh We’re going there!”
I suggest everyone goes and admires the manliness that is the front page of http://espn.go.com/ right now.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:39 AM
Bullshit – take a look at the postseason drought list. Do you see any big market teams at the bottom?
Compare that to the NFL, which has a similar postseason structure relative to # of teams, and you’ll note no one is above 10 years and the teams at the bottom are notorious for poor front offices, not lack of available funds.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:42 AM
Well they’re getting a $9 million discount on Bibby from last year. Crawford’s deal cancels out what they were paying Law and Claxton. That means they’re 9 million under what they were paying last year. Marvin will probably get a three million a year raise and Pachulia probably a 1-1.5 million per year raise. If the Hawks wanted to, they could match just about any deal for Chills and stay under the luxury tax, but the reports have been that the relationship between the organization and Josh are irreparable. The Hawks probably won’t match any deal for him regardless of their financial situation.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:44 AM
@Roeth: I think the bottom 5-6 are more about awful decisions than not spending.
Except for maybe Toronto (who spend plenty) but are stuck in a terrible division situation.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:48 AM
how many teams that spend in the bottom third of the league made the playoffs last year? the year before? it’s a fun exercise.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:52 AM
This would seem to support the argument that a salary cap and floor doesn’t necessarily create more parity.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:56 AM
NFL: 18 different teams have made the playoffs within the past 2 seasons.
MLB: 12 different teams have made the playoffs within the past 2 seasons.
if you go back another season (past 3 years) you’ll see the NFL has 22.
different teams in the playoffs and the MLB only has 18.
With the exception of a couple teams (texans, bills, lions), every NFL team has made the playoffs since 2002. Since 2002 there are 8 teams that haven’t sniffed the post season in the MLB.
Not as much Parity compared to the NFL.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:56 AM
Sure, a small market team can win for a few years. But then the big market team takes their players and another small market team replaces them, and the cycle continues. That’s what they mean by parity.
/Oakland A’s
//followed by Florida Marlins
///about to be followed by Milwaukee Brewers
July 7th, 2009 at 9:56 AM
Well, if we’re using that small sample size, I know that the highest spending team didn’t make the playoffs last year. Therefore, how much you spend has nothing to do with it.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:58 AM
more teams have won titles in the last 20-30 years in baseball, than any other sport.
July 7th, 2009 at 10:02 AM
With the exception of a few teams, every MLB team has won a World Series since 2008. In the NFL, there have only been 2 (Pittsburgh, New York Giants).
July 7th, 2009 at 10:05 AM

July 7th, 2009 at 10:06 AM
Salary caps artificially lower player salaries. If you want to make the owner’s richer support a salary cap. There is a reason Donald Fehr’s strongest union in sports doesn’t have one and NFL’s bitch union does.
July 7th, 2009 at 10:06 AM
Not quite – pick whomever you deem to be the best GM in baseball. Give him the Pirates and a $50 mil budget, while other teams spend $100 to $200 mil. Sure, he might make the playoffs once every 10 years on a whim, but the team will generally finish at the bottom of the standings every year.
July 7th, 2009 at 10:07 AM
Teams that spend more have a greater likelihood of making the playoffs in baseball. And, in baseball, the name of the game is making the playoffs. Once in the extended playoffs, anyone can win. It isn’t necessarily the best team. It’s who’s hot at the right time.
July 7th, 2009 at 10:11 AM
38% of the teams in the NFL make the playoffs each season.
27% of the teams in MLB make the playoffs each season.
July 7th, 2009 at 10:15 AM
Well, the A’s made the playoffs every year for awhile there. The Twins are almost always there. The Rays have built an amazing system that should keep them in contention for another five-seven years even if they suddenly forget how to run a farm system. The Marlins, consistently the lowest payroll, may well win a division with the mets/phillies in it this year. The Royals and Pirates have had terrible front offices. That’s why they suck. Not because they don’t spend money. The Mariners had a terrible front office. That’s why they suck. Not because they DID spend money. Cubs have the second highest payroll this year. Mets have the third. Spent that money on Ollie Perez and Milton Bradley. Wonder why they suck?
July 7th, 2009 at 10:16 AM
Depends on what you consider successful. The Braves get killed for winning the division 14 straight times, and only winning one World Series, yet the Marlins haven’t ever won the division, yet have two titles. I’d say that it’s more than possible for a team with a small payroll to make intelligent decisions, and make the playoffs more than once a decade, and possibly win a championship.
July 7th, 2009 at 10:18 AM
Again, to recap, in baseball every team is able to build for a little while. But then the small market team that gets good goes to shit in a hurry because all their players go to New York and Boston. Then another small market team replaces the other small market team goes to shit. Then they go to shit 3 years later when the Yankees and Angels sign all their players. And so on and so on.
But the teams in New York, Los Angeles, and Boston are NEVER below .500. Ever. And if they’re not in the playoffs, they’re always in contention. They never have that season where the wheels completely fall off. I mean, look at the baseball roundups each day. Mets fans are acting like the sky is falling. It hasn’t been this bad years. And how many games are they out? Boo-fucking-hoo.
July 7th, 2009 at 10:20 AM
and 33% of all baseball teams haven’t made the playoffs in 5 years, about 20 percent haven’t made it in the past ten years.
18% of nfl teams haven’t made the playoffs in 5 years and they’ve all made it in the past 10.
July 7th, 2009 at 10:20 AM
Don’t even go there. Every team signs players to awful contracts. The difference is that when the Yankees do it, they can still sign or trade for 4 players to replace him. Or steal a player from Japan or Cuba because they don’t have to compete for his contract.
I’m looking at you, Carl Pavano.
July 7th, 2009 at 10:23 AM
The Mets missed the playoffs the last two years, and the Yankees haven’t won the World Series since they went into hyperspend mode. Winning in baseball has less to do with payroll than you want to admit.
July 7th, 2009 at 10:23 AM
I’m not sure what you’re arguing here, wil. But given that in 10 years, there will be 100 spots up for grabs in the NFL and only 80 in MLB, wouldn’t you expect there to be less MLB teams to make the playoffs than NFL, completely independent of financial situation?
July 7th, 2009 at 10:27 AM
05 Dodgers: 71-91
04 Mets: 71-91
03 Mets: 66-95
02 Mets: 75-86
July 7th, 2009 at 10:28 AM
I would be kind of disappointed if they traded Fielder, especially since he’s going to be a 300 hitter this year. Looks comfortable at the plate this year and has to be the 1st half team MVP. Prince just signed the two year deal, and if McGhee keeps producing, looking at a 3-4-5 of Braun, Fielder,McGhee for the next couple years ain’t too shabby. We need pitching though, so I’d dangle Alcides Escobar or JJ
July 7th, 2009 at 10:29 AM
Yankees won the division about 12 years in a row.
July 7th, 2009 at 10:29 AM
Don’t point out that poor front office moves are what generally cause teams to fail? The Yankees haven’t been as good as their payroll because they don’t develop young players because of the glut of OLD free agent money they have to play. Sure, everybody makes bad decisions, but it is consistent bad decisions that doom teams. The Red Sox have money AND are smart. That’s why everybody else is screwed.
July 7th, 2009 at 10:33 AM
I’m not disputing that payroll isn’t a significant factor in a teams success. But it isn’t the be all end all that people act like it is, and the alternative is a system where owners get more money while the players I actually pay to see get screwed.
July 7th, 2009 at 10:33 AM
12 Division Titles, and what, 4 World Series rings? Like I said, the Braves won the division 14 times in a row, and have one ring. The Marlins had a significantly smaller payroll, and never won the division, and won two World Series. Is it easier to win if you spend? Sure, if you spend smartly. But throwing money at anybody that’s had a halfway decent season is stupid, and doesn’t guarantee results.
July 7th, 2009 at 10:34 AM
Marlins won in 97 with the 5th highest payroll
July 7th, 2009 at 10:35 AM
But given that in 10 years, there will be 100 spots up for grabs in the NFL and only 80 in MLB, wouldn’t you expect there to be less MLB teams to make the playoffs than NFL, completely independent of financial situation?

July 7th, 2009 at 10:39 AM
Not sure if these things have been mentioned yet, but:
1. Braun signed a long-term deal with the Crew last year. He’s locked up at a good rate for quite some time. 8 years for between 45 and 51 million depending on whether he qualifies as a Super 2.
2. Braun made similar comments after the Brewers got blasted in Boston last year.
The Brewers lack starting pitching right now, but most teams do. Bush should be back soon so McClung can go back to the pen. They may eventually bring Parra back up and send Burns back down. They’ve got options in-house, so I think making a knee jerk move right now is silly.
July 7th, 2009 at 10:40 AM
Oops. 120 NFL spots in 10 years.
July 7th, 2009 at 10:41 AM
Then sold high on everybody, and rebuilt to win it all in ‘03. And beat the Yankees in the WS to boot. Then sold high on everybody, and are within 2 games of the division lead this year. It’s about smart front office decisions, regardless of payroll.
July 7th, 2009 at 10:54 AM
Playoff Teams by Salary by Year (Top 1/3, Middle 1/3, Bottom 1/3):
2008 – 5, 2, 1
2007 – 4, 1, 3
2006 – 3, 4, 1
2005 – 5, 3, 0
2004 – 6, 1, 1
2003 – 4, 2, 2
2002 – 4, 2, 2
2001 – 5, 2, 1
2000 – 3, 3, 2
The numbers basically suggest what makes sense. The more money, the better, but it’s by no means a guarantee to success.
July 7th, 2009 at 10:55 AM
And they lose 100 games in each of the other years. As a result, they have no fan base. If a team wins a World Series, but no one is rooting for them, does it count?
Again, Florida has to HOPE to get to the playoffs once every 5 years. The Yankees, Dodgers, Red Sox can outspend their mistakes to make it every year.
And again, winning the World Series is a crapshoot. It’s getting to the playoffs that’s they key. Anyone can win once the playoffs start.
Florida was the 4th best team in the National League twice and happened to win 2 WS Titles. The Mariners had the 2nd greatest year of all time in 2001 and didn’t sniff a Series title.
The expansion of the playoffs have bastardized the entire regular season. The whole point of 162 games (and 154 before it) was to find out who the best team in the league was and that team would represent the league in the Series. Having a 4 team playoff was an OK step. Having 8 teams just completely reduces the regular season to virtually nothing.
July 7th, 2009 at 11:02 AM
So, Clown, they haven’t been below .500 for 4 years? That’s pretty good odds.
You can spin baseball “parity” all you want. I’ll still take the NFL, where the league super-powers can be built in places like Pittsburgh, Indianapolis, and Green Bay. While the Jets and Bears can be shit and don’t take players from the small-market teams in their peak years.
July 7th, 2009 at 11:09 AM
thanks, Ben. i agree – no guarantee of success. but those #’s don’t lie.
and to the guy who posted Braun’s contract – thanks. wasn’t aware. if someone really wants to create a great site, they’d copy the hoops hype salaries model for MLB. neat and easy.
July 7th, 2009 at 11:11 AM
I prefer Kristin Cavallari over LC but i dont know if she’s honestly worth the 100k SIGNING BONUS for The Hills and the 75k per episode she gets. She’s got killer legs and per Matt Leinart (whom she dated/f/d etc) she gives good brain like she graduated from a good school.

July 7th, 2009 at 12:01 PM
JEEBUS! when are people going to realize that it is about winning championships and not just getting to the fucking playoffs. the NFL has a ridiculous schedule, that gives teams the year before that were just okay, a better shot to make the playoffs be rewarding them with weaker opponents.
you have a better chance to win a title in the baseball than you do in any other major pro sport, and the stats back that up. The NBA has a salary cap, how is that working out for everyone? They have had 8 fucking teams win a title in 30 years. 8! but they send more teams each year.
July 7th, 2009 at 12:15 PM
