    2018 Dbacks Spring Training Thread

    Isn't that simply the byproduct of arbitration eligible players hitting at the same time? They didn't sign these guys to more than $2M salaries. They just had to pay the ones they had more.

    MCU: Black Panther

    Killmonger did claim he wanted to arm all black people around the world with the Wakandan tech. T'Challa thought Killmonger was misguided in this vision. White people are not favored in this film (not that they should be) as even the good guys refer to white people as "colonizers" and told...

    D'backs, Yankees and Rays make three way trade. OF Souza coming to Az. Drury and Banda are leaving.

    Well if you can't get Martinez, get a guy who looks like him if you squint your eyes.

    American Vandal (Netflix)

    No thread on this. Just finished it. I don't think it's for everyone, but it sucked me in quick and is very bingable. The second episode is dedicated to "did a handjob occur or not" and was hilarious. On Netflix.

    OT: at least we aren't Philly

    Not that details matter, but it's 5, 8, and 4 vs 3, 1, and 1. Replace Chriss with Bender and it could be 5, 4, and 4. Slots don't matter though without context, otherwise you'd state it would be foolish to reject a trade of Anthony Bennett (1) and Steven Adams (12). It does have to do with the...

    OT: at least we aren't Philly

    I get what the OP is trying to say, but don't feel TOO sorry for PHI. How many PHX fans would reject a trade of Len, Criss, and Jackson for Embiid, Simmons, and Fultz right now?

    2017-18 Hot Stove League

    WTF are you talking about "I don't know luxury tax"? You're right, all professional athletes want to work under NFL rules. "Alright dude". Increased attendance comes from winning, not from payroll. "Right dude"? Please, talk me through the logic that starts at "salary cap" and ends with, well...

    Altered Carbon (Netflix)

    Saw the first episode. I am digging the concept, but I really don't like the lead actor and am concerned the show will be a bit thin on script.

    The market determines concession and ticket prices, not the cost of the product on the field.

    2017-18 Hot Stove League

    Yes, NBA and NFL player do complain, but their unions are so weak they can't do anything about it like baseball players can. Regardless, how paternal are you to determine "what is enough" for them? To curb their fair market value. How do we ultimately pay? How is MLB different than NBA or NFL...

    2017-18 Hot Stove League

    Why do you want to punish players? They are the only reasons we watch the game. You really think it will change anything to cap their earning abilities?

    Ok. I officially HATE Lavar Ball now. Big Baller Brand has contacted Kansas Signee Quentin Grimes about joining their new basketball league, the JBA. Grimes told me he is not considering the offer. pic.twitter.com/i4xgQPWlZD — TIPTON EDITS (@TiptonEdits) February 2, 2018 Big Baller Brand has...

    Wichita State is still the only top-25 team without an RPI Group 1 win. Jeff Borzello, ESPN Staff Writer

    Counterpart (Starz)

    If you feel this, you should definitely watch him in Whiplash.

    Counterpart (Starz)

    No thread on this show? Just watched the first episode. A cross between Fringe and a Cold War Spy story. JK Simmons is excellent. Recommend.

    This is a bit inaccurate. Win over OU tonight and it's a full two games. Lose tonight and it's still only one game lead.

    Maryland probably in full meltdown mode. Already lost de Sousa and Dotson to KU.

    Reddish, Barrett, and Williamson all play the same position. How’s this going to work out?

    Sun Devil Basketball 17-18

    ASU is ranked 5th in AdjO, but 127 in AdjD. The problem seems to be stopping, not scoring, the ball.

    Who’s going to take that contract and why would they give us anything to take it?

    2017-18 Hot Stove League

    I don't think baseball cards are at a premium right now, so I doubt he has a $24M collection. Regardless, that affords us one year out of 4/5

    Where does the team get the $22-$24M to add to the payroll?

    2017-2018 Draft Prospects watch.

    He is still a project. Needs to develop some more post moves or a jump shot. Cannot be as aggressive on defense as a rim protector because he’s essentially our only big, so hard to judge that from game action but he seems to be able to use his size to hold position well. I can see him as a mid...
