Tim Lincecum never had Tommy John surgery during his career. There are some exceptions out there.


He also didn't throw 100 mph+. Plus his career crashed out over the yips. Not a good example for guys who want a long HOF career.
First, he needs to learn how to get guys out at 95-97 mph and develop his other pitches instead of relying on 100+ mph if he wants a career to be longer than 5-7 years.

Having said that, that's usually an offseason thing. That it is happening now i think indicates injury. I think he has a date with Mr. John pretty soon. But we all knew this would happen. Same as that kid in Milwaukee. You can't pitch like that and last very long.

Or, if you want to throw like that, be a closer.

well - your school has a banner hanging in the PMAC recognizing them


I don't care what the banner says. It doesn't count as a true championship.

As an Auburn fan you of all people should appreciate the difference between reality and what a school claims.

LSU won a share of the Regular Season Championship in 1991


As I said, Shaq. Reg season championships mean squat in college basketball.
Because the way Bill Walsh used him his numbers weren't HOF worthy. He was the FB until 1986, and then his yards were split between rushing and receiving.

Is “morality” clearly defined in these contracts? Seems like different people could have different meanings of morality?


My guess is that if he is ultimately convicted of a felony, CBS may be able to get out of the deal. If Romo pleads it down to a misdemeanor, then they may have to do some sort of settlement to get rid of him where Romo trades money for a lower non-compete time frame.

I doubt you see anything from CBs till the case is resolved.

JC was never an option for him ever.


I can't imagine a Nussmeier being a good fit in JC's offense.

He's going to end up like Spencer Strider and he shouldn't. He needs to use his height and build and pitch like Nolan Ryan and Verlander.


Nolan had a killer curveball to supplement his heat. Skenes just has the heat.
Take this for what it is worth. ESPN.com had this on its front page when it broke earlier. They have taken it off of there. Given how recent this story is, it should be there at least until tomorrow morning, yet they have already relegated it to the golf section.
You can't throw as hard as he throws that much and last. He should just have his Tommy John now and get it over with. Then he should become a closer. Or develop his other pitches.

That kid in Milwaukee will be having his Tommy John by next season.
Some perspective on all of this:

In short, a lot of questions about what this exactly is, what it is not, and what it can actually accomplish.
Is Brown doing that well, or are the rest of the receivers doing that bad? All the reports from NOF and NOLA.com are that the offense has looked pretty awful overall so far.
Florio made a good point on this for once.

Taysom has been a free agent since March. There have been no takers.

He thinks Payton is just showing some love to maybe generate a deal for him somewhere else.
Blair Barbier. Went to elementary with him as well as high. He was good in 2nd grade.
His comments about basketball culture don't ring true.

The Pels are in the top half of the league in local ratings.

In national TV games, NOLA is top 5 consistently. Sometimes the highest rated market that doesn't have a team in that particular game.

The organization has struggled, but it's not due to the local love of basketball.

It amazes me how this man lives in so many heads on here


That just shows how much hot nonsense 90% of the posts on this thread are. He is a douchy podcaster. The people who would theoretically be involved in something like this are multi-millionaires 100 times over. They may let Moscona tie their shoes, but that's it.
So now we have stories from 2 outfits that have zero credibility.
Don't have a link, but he has a calf strain.
