placed on waivers and wasn't pulled back, so the White Sox take on his full awful contract

looks that way. chisox paid the 20g fee to claim him off waivers. the imfamous ptnl will likely be part of the deal too.

of course, they're also stuck with his $66m price tag too.

Ricciardi for GM of the decade.

Now with Riod and Peavy they have taken on something like 120M in contracts for those two.

Rios is the guy who (look for the video on youTube) refused to sign for some kid after an 0-5 night and an adult told him he was big-shotting the kid to which Rios told him "farg you!"

Strasburg signed with Washington....$15.67M over 4 years

The ESPN hype machine seems to care about that kid approximately 100 times more than any actual human sports fan cares about him.

igy's gonna hate this but I think it's great that Washington is turning things around, even if their stadium is boring and overrun by Phils fans. He's their best pitcher already and he's never been on the field...

they are not turning things around. no one has any idea how good or bad this jew is going to be. strasburgs a jew name, right?

anyway they are trying to get better and are spending the money to do so. but in no way shape or form does this make the nats good. and the nats being good will never matter. they are in a terrible sports town and are a team that was created 2 days ago. no one will ever give a shtein about them.

its sickening

dc sports has LEGIT talent

ovechkin is gonna go down as a top five all time nhl player

strasberg is other worldly

they have the best defensive player in the nfl

and if arenas can get healthy hes an nba stud

orakpos potential also scares me

rjs246 · August 18, 2009, 01:06:26 PM

Wait, who are you claiming is the best defensive player in the NFL? Haynesworth? I don't know about that. But yes the teams have good players. They all still suck though, which is all that matters.

Seabiscuit36 · August 18, 2009, 01:12:08 PM

Laundry?

ice grillin you · August 18, 2009, 01:19:42 PM

i think haynesworth is the best...altho i cant argue if someone said ed reed

im also open to the fact that haynesworth could suck this year since he got caked off 4 life and hopefully thats exactly what happens...but if hes putting forth maximum effort hes absolutely sick

BigEd76 · August 18, 2009, 01:20:08 PM

DC will not win a title before Philly wins their next.

ice grillin you · August 18, 2009, 01:24:38 PM

cool
