  1. So do you feel bad for my Dog when I take him hunting ?  After all Guns are LOUD,  Or do you feel bad for the animal I just shot ?  Not sure who the Democrat is here.........

    Make Dogs Great Again !

    I don't own a dog. Or a cat. or... any other kind of animal.

    Therefore... supporting the claims made by OTHERS on here, must make me the ONLY one with a Democrat stance? Being a "Democrat" is pretty much known as being selfish or not caring about others. Seems the finger you're trying to point at me, doesn't comprehend that? 

    You suggesting that lighting off fireworks, without consideration of your neighbors animals... is one of the most bhole things I've read in quite a while. At least you're proud of it, eh? (insert Joe Biden clap, here).

    I think I need to adopt a kid, cause man those sports days suck when they end. He's ready for it to end, but I sure wasn't. When you spend the past 15 plus years going season to season, sport to sport, baseball, football, basketball, and track, you stay busy all the time. 

    Congratulations to a job well done !

    I had to laugh at this comment, I just told my wife this same thing the other day.  I need a 5 or 6 yr old to start all over with, all the busy weekends filled with sports are starting  to slow down leaving me feeling a little uneasy about what the future will be like.  Maybe start going to Glamis again :classic_biggrin:

    im not bitter they got beat it happens. i just find it very funny how others try to trash talk when their team does not have a record to back up the talk. no one ever whined all other fan been saying that about LA forever. now we could say that about the failed money splurge in SD last year and the years anaheim did it. the whole choke thing cracks me up too, your team cant even make it there but here they are saying another team "chokes". its a game anyone can win at any time any day. 

    sounds like you are pretty bitter though. 

    Nah, Im not bitter.  Banter between FANs ( Fanatics ) is what sports is all about, makes it more fun.   No Question in my mind that LA is a far superior franchise, we all know that.  Had the Padres or any other team made this deal, We/They would get laughed at.   LA is smart, they will make this work, I am sure of it.  That being said, the CBA will be making some new rules about deferred payments, although nothing new, we have never seen $680 MiL deferred for some serious payroll and luxury tax incentives.  LA found a Loophole and drove a semi truck right through it !

    The old track coach that was let go, showed up last night and addressed the board. He told his story. 

    He was told the same exact thing Coach Zo was told, we are going a different direction and your not part of it. 

    The track coach's team had broke 21 school records on his watch, and he sent multiple kids to college on scholarships. But he told the AD he couldn't be trusted and was gone in 3 days.

    Except when he questioned his firing reason the AD told him "I don't need a reason to get rid of you". 

    I sure hope this AD gets canned, looks like he's the cancer in the program, and these kids just want to win, and go to college. time will tell, but I doubt the football coach stays even if they reinstate him, why stay where your not wanted to only look over your shoulder every day for someone stabbing you in the back.

     

    The problem with all of the AD's is that they have no one overseeing them and can ruin or build a school up in 1-2 years.  This stuff usually manifest itself, but can be very painful for an athlete if he has AD and coaching changes often through HS.  Really cool that you are still involved and care about the future of the program.

  5. He sounds like a great Mentor!  Thanks for sharing the story.

    Coaching is a thankless job that not many understand, Especially with HS recruiting and all of the new rules with the transfer portal.   Sounds like your family was lucky to have this coach in your life and its awesome that you can see how much he helped your son.  You taking the time to post this shows how much you appreciated all of his help.  I have seen plenty of Great coaches lose their jobs, and I have seen even more shitty coaches keep their jobs, none of it makes sense, its always politics.

    still makes me laugh, cant get in but still trying to talk trash, last season was a joy to watch after all the talking SD players and fans did. coudnt make the playoffs. barley got above 500 and finished 18 games back in the division. with a payroll so big they had to take out a 50mil loan to finish the season. 

    angel fans have been trying to say similar stuff which is even funnier considering their performance. 

    Nothing funnier than watching LA in CHOKETOBER.  Sounds like you are still bitter about getting bounced by the Madres, then swept by AZ,  Then LA fans whine that SD is buying a team, LMAO!!!!  Ohtani contract is a 20 year deal, 2mill a yr for first 10 yrs, then 68 MIL a yr for another 10yrs!  Not sure how that will work out

    DODGERS PAYROLL IN 2040= 84,000,000

    FREEMAN 50YRS OLD    5,000,000

    BETTS  47 YRS OLD        11,000,000

    OHTANI  45 YRS OLD     68,000,000

  7. I'm happy he went to the NL West, We will not see another player like this in our lifetime.  LA has deferred a lot of this contract just like Mookie and Freeman so it should not cripple the annual spending on payroll.  Who knows, they might actually win a playoff game next year !

  8. We all knew this was going to happen, we need arms and we got 4 of them.  Nothing more than a#3 in the rotation, but it is what we needed.  Now we need to pick up a Power Hitting 1st baseman.

    What was the Juan Soto trade?
     
     
    In exchange for Soto and outfielder Trent Grisham, the Padres will receive a package of RHP Michael King, RHP Drew Thorpe, RHP Jhony Brito, RHP Randy Vásquez and catcher Kyle Higashioka.4 hours ago

     

    Where will Ohtani end up ?  Toronto, LA ?
