What to write about?

crackpott · 01-16-2004, 02:48 AM

I need to write my article tonight, and HR crapped all over my idea about looking at contract seasons, so does anyone have anything they'd like to see me write something on?

holyroller · 01-16-2004, 02:52 AM

Sure, I'll take the credit for saving you from embarrassment

crackpott · 01-16-2004, 02:58 AM

Oh, and I'd rather not write about something that anyone outside of the Fit Dog could see, like how the Mariners GM is an idiot and their offseason was very questionable. Just an example though.

Help make a Pirates fan feel better...write about the meaninglessness of rule 5 draft picks?

You're taking hits in the polls, as we speak, Mr. Commsh Chet. You'd better fire back with something a little better than that!

Write about who has the best chance of beating Pete Roses' hit record.

How will Greg Maddux help the cubs?

Winners and loser of the offseason thus far?

Oh yeah...well....I had sex with crackpott's girlfriend!!!11

matskralc · 01-16-2004, 03:01 AM

That username gives me another idea...write about that massive logjam out there in the corners in San Diego. I think it's still there, right?

How Pet Hengtan got 2.2 mil from Tor but Mike Williams couldn't get one dollar from a major league club.

Not that either deserved any $$$.

They weren't meaningless.

Pirates got screwed. However I have to write this fairly quickly and minor league stuff requires more research on my end.

Agreed on that one but i'd rather give $$ for Williams than Hentgan.

a) I'm not sure anyone currently playing stands a reasonable chance. You need a LOT of longevity, and I'm not quite sure how to accurately predict theat.

b) hmm... potentially.

c) Too broad, too much research needed, wouldn't be done until like 7 in the morning.

I don't consider that news, they're not all that great.

SanDiegoPadres19 · 01-16-2004, 03:07 AM

Here is something for the future to work on...

Update on top 5 or 10 picks from previous drafts.

Hentgen is worth at least 1.5... 2.2? questionable, but not unreasonable.
