  1. In my book, anyone who beats the Patriots TWICE in the Super Bowl belongs in the HOF for that reason only!!
  2. Probably can add Aaron Rodgers to the list, he should be eligible before the end of this 10 year period. Can't stand the guy, but his numbers are HOF worthy. ** Edit: re-read the thread title and see you're listing QB's who are already retired. Couldn't see and option to delete my post.
  3. Hey everyone! It's February and Spring Training is just around the corner. Still several free agents out there without a team, so the next few weeks will be interesting to see where some of them land. Cardinals have revamped their pitching staff, albeit with some senior citizen starters. Will be interesting to see how they hold up. I liked the Sonny Gray addition and Gibson and Lynn are innings eaters. Not much change on the offense, but if guys perform like they are capable, then we should be fine offensively. The Dodgers make me SICK!!! They are clearly baseball's new evil empire. The "cap" and luxury tax are jokes. BUT, the Dodgers have proven over and over that you can't buy a World Series Championship. They are dominant in the regular season, but always choke in the playoffs. My early prediction is a Braves v. Orioles World Series. Braves just keep bolstering their roster and the O's are on the upswing and their young players are only getting better and they have more on the way. That deal for Burnes was fantastic for them. I love it!! Apologies to Yankees and Red Sox fans, but it's so nice to see teams like the Orioles, Rays and Jays making noise in that tough AL East. It's great to have baseball back soon!!
  4. Just popping in to get caught up. Playoff race is exciting for those who have teams in the running. Obviously, championships cannot be bought...ask the Mets, Yankees, Padres, etc. There have been a few exceptions over the years, but generally it's tough to spend big bucks on star players and not have the supporting cast that's needed, because you can't afford to surround the big bucks stars with decent players. Good luck to you Cubs fans, your team is making this season exciting. P.S. - Cardinals officially suck. They will have to totally rebuild their starting pitching staff for 2024. Offensively, they have several good young prospects and veterans. But, they will probably have to spend big on SP or trade young talent for pitching.
  5. Hi all, just checking in. I knew all the Cubs fans would be active on this thread, and good for you! As a Cardinals fan, my season is over, of course and this will be an interesting off season in St. Louis. I'm still following baseball and excited about the Orioles success after several down years. Rays are still tough, although they have a lot of pitchers injured. Rangers trying to buy a pennant and it's working so far. Bottom line, I just want someone to knock the Astros and Dodgers out!!!
  6. They need more depth at forward and with 5 picks should be able to address that, or get something done in free agency. We're better off now than we were last year at this time.
  7. Cardinals' bats are waking up and we're on a roll. Starting pitching still struggling but hanging in there with better offensive production helping. OF injuries are a concern and wonder when Walker gets called back up. The new balanced schedule means we don't play Milwaukee again until September, so those crucial division games mean even more now.
  8. I am here on occasion. Rays are the real deal again with a small payroll.

  11. I am no expert by any means, but I know a lot of you are more knowledgeable than me and it encourages me to see the good reviews you've given our draft. I am excited and glad that needs were addressed in the draft without reaching, it appears. Question: I truly believe our new HC wanted Richardson at #4 and may have influenced that pick when he and Levis were both available. So, if Reich were still the HC, do you think we would have chosen Levis instead? Just curious, even though it really doesn't matter since Reich isn't here.
  12. Great story of perseverance - https://www.mlb.com/news/drew-maggi-makes-long-awaited-mlb-debut-for-pirates
  13. I voted hope for Stroud and expect it to be Richardson. Levis played for UK, and I am not a fan of UK in any sport. I know that influences my opinion, but I have flashbacks of another UK quarterback...Tim Couch. Big arm, top pick, BIG BUST!
