Odds to land Machado -- (link) - budice Feb 12, 13:00 30
- He should be Yankee already. I'm very unhappy with the Yankees this off-season. -- nm - Krusty Feb 12, 13:03 29
  - *nods vigorously* -- nm - Jovian Feb 12, 13:40 14
    - The bullshit talk coming out of the front office infuriates me. - Krusty Feb 12, 13:45 13
      - you realize they have expenses besides player salaries? -- nm - groiny Feb 12, 13:47 12
        
        Of course. But they're making more than ever, all the teams are. The TV deals alone are making them bank but beyond that revenues are up. - Krusty Feb 12, 13:50 11
        
        Hal is the polar opposite of his father. It sucks. - Jovian Feb 12, 13:56 10
        
        Harper's easily not necessary for the Yankees... - Will Hunting Feb 12, 14:05
        
        where is he going to play? -- nm - groiny Feb 12, 13:59 8
        
        They didn't need to re-sign Gardner. That's where he would have fit. But today it would mean trading someone. -- nm - Krusty Feb 12, 14:04 7
        
        Gardner's arguably better... - Will Hunting Feb 12, 14:07 2
        
        Harper in Yankee Stadium should be a much better hitter but a much worse fielder than Gardner. - Krusty Feb 12, 14:10 1
        
        You pay his rate if you think he's a top 5 player in the game. At no point outside of 2015 and a few months in 2017 has he looked like that. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 12, 14:11
        
        Hicks is your best defensive OF, Judge is pretty decent and Stanton is OK and does not want to DH. - groiny Feb 12, 14:05 1
        
        You rotate so guys get rest -- nm - Krusty Feb 12, 14:10
        
        no loyalty to Gardner then? -- nm - groiny Feb 12, 14:04 1
        
        Win or go home. Lol - Krusty Feb 12, 14:08
  - Here is something to cheer u up on the first day of Spring Traning -- (link) - eag Feb 12, 13:09 [youtube] 1
    - :-) -- nm - Krusty Feb 12, 13:23
  - You can knock a couple words off of that sentence. -- nm - Spawn Feb 12, 13:06
  - cry me a river. -- nm - groiny Feb 12, 13:05 10
    - I think the Sox will be very good soon but they should be spending too. Teams crying poverty are liars. -- nm - Krusty Feb 12, 13:22 9
      - they are trying, and you big spenders are fucking it up, because these assholes expect you to throw your checkbooks at them -- nm - groiny Feb 12, 13:25 8
        
        The Yankees could have a $300m payroll and still not spend half of what they make in a year. Teams can afford to spend a lot more than - Krusty Feb 12, 13:41 7
        
        there is a reason why every single year, the same 5 or 6 teams are linked to every free agent. - groiny Feb 12, 13:47 6
        
        To a degree you're right but a lot more teams are making a lot more money today. They're lying to us and saying they're broke when they're filthy -- (edited) - Krusty Feb 12, 13:53 5
        
        Let them open their books so we can know the truth. -- nm - Krusty Feb 12, 13:54 4
        
        I don't disagree that some teams do not spend, but also why should they if they have no shot to compete? - groiny Feb 12, 13:55 3
        
        Because they should be putting out a competitive and entertaining product on the field for their fans. -- (edited) - Krusty Feb 12, 14:01 2
        
        why pay 60 million to finish last when you can spend 30 for the same result? - groiny Feb 12, 14:03 1
        
        I get that but teams need to put out a good product and that extra money should make them more competitive and fun to watch. - Krusty Feb 12, 14:07
So, a male manager here called a woman in, read her the dress code, then said, "You broke no rules, but those pants make me uncomfortable." - Will Hunting Feb 12, 12:52 10

Pete, Carole King didn’t cover the song. She wrote it. -- nm - David, Earth’s Mightiest Hero Feb 12, 12:51 3
- Originally released by Little Eva (who worked as a baby sitter for Carole King and Gerry Goffen). -- nm - pmb Feb 12, 13:06 1

- Odd, this posted in my HR thread above -- I think we're looking at a Biden / Harris ticket. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 12, 12:57 8
  - I don't think Biden is going to run. Just a feeling I have. -- nm - Mr. Havens Feb 12, 13:00 6
    - I honestly do not think he wants to. - Spawn Feb 12, 13:06 5
      - I've always thought he'd be a very good President, but I just don't think he wants it right now - Mr. Havens Feb 12, 13:11 4
        
        You are "new" here. I was saying a while back that I could see him being a 1 term, with his VP being prepped for her 8. -- nm - Spawn Feb 12, 13:12 3
        
        I understand what you're saying. I'm just saying I don't see it happening. - Mr. Havens Feb 12, 13:18 1
        
        spoiler - Spawn Feb 12, 13:25
        
        I approve this message. -- nm - mud Feb 12, 13:14

- YES. THANK YOU! In-N-Out fries are crap! -- nm - Mop Feb 12, 12:27 5
  - you have to order In-N-Out fries more well done to be decent -- nm - peglegpete Feb 12, 13:03 2
    - Yup. "Undercooked" is genuinely a problem with these fries. How does that happen? Jesus, just change the instructions and give it 2 more minutes! -- nm - Mop Feb 12, 13:10 1
      - I think it's a matter of how they sell themselves, and being a victim of their own success - Mr. Havens Feb 12, 13:16
  - The fries at In-n-Out are an afterthought after the Double Double and the shake - Mr. Havens Feb 12, 12:41

- I find Wendy's OK, but LOVED their old fries. still mad they switched -- nm - Beaker Feb 12, 12:12 2
  - I find them to be terrible. Rarely do they have any crunch on the outside, the taste is okay and there's never enough salt if any at all -- nm - Krusty Feb 12, 12:19
  - the two places I go to here (Harveys, Vera's) are both terrific -- nm - mud Feb 12, 12:15

Popeye's fried chicken is butt kickin. -- nm - Strongbad Feb 12, 12:09 42
- whatever happened to Sister's fried chicken? they were everywhere before I moved west 30 years ago. they were the best. -- nm* - peglegpete Feb 12, 13:06
- Pioneer Chicken was way better than Popeyes, and I will never eat at Popeyes because the way they treated the merger - Mr. Havens Feb 12, 12:44 4
  - Finally, a voice of reason. -- nm - Spawn Feb 12, 12:54 3

      - they're all over the place - you should move closer to one -- nm - decline Feb 12, 12:41
- Maybe if you have never had KFC. - Spawn Feb 12, 12:15 22
  - Popeyes is way better than KFC. -- nm - pmb Feb 12, 12:22 10
    - I agree with pmb. - ReluctantCynic Feb 12, 12:35
    - It is too spicey. Think this must be the super-taster thing. But it literally burns when I eat it. -- nm* - Spawn Feb 12, 12:23 8
      - Yeah, that's part of what makes it better. I also always found the chicken to just be meatier. - pmb Feb 12, 12:27 1
        
        Sometimes when I get a #21 (used to be #7) $5 Fill-Up from KFC the breast is so big I think maybe it is not a chicken. - Spawn Feb 12, 12:29
      - ahhh...there it is. now it makes sense. sure, if you don't like the cajun spiciness - that makes sense. I love it - so that's why Popeye's is #1 on - The Commander Feb 12, 12:27 4
        
        Physical pain is not something I crave from my food. I can eat their popcorn shrimp if I have no choice. But their mac cheese is awful, as well. -- nm - Spawn Feb 12, 12:34 3
        
        So sensitive your mouth is. :) -- nm - The Commander Feb 12, 12:36
        
        The answer is clear. You should just cut out your tongue. -- nm - JaxSean Feb 12, 12:35 1
        
        The answer is clear. - Spawn Feb 12, 12:39
      - it is spicer than KFC for sure. I do like it, but I have to be in the mood for it. -- nm - Remlik Feb 12, 12:25
  - Wow. That's... the most wrongest statement I've seen on ST in a long time. - Strongbad Feb 12, 12:20 6
    - You and I need to hold a fried chicken summit or something to help -- nm - MDH Feb 12, 12:21 5
      - Glad to see we agree on Bojangles as well. -- nm - Strongbad Feb 12, 12:22 4
        
        Bojangles is the shit. Haven't had it since we left Charlotte in 1996 though -- nm - The Commander Feb 12, 12:27
        
        I travel to Raleigh a few times a year, it's my *first* stop off the plane to get dinner and bring it back to the hotel -- nm - MDH Feb 12, 12:24 2

        We have one at Union Station, it is not the same. -- nm - MDH Feb 12, 12:33
  - GURL BYE. KFC is the lowest on the fried chicken totem pole, and there is not even a debate about this. -- nm - MDH Feb 12, 12:19 3
    - Tier 1: Popeyes, Bojangles, Raising Canes (merits inclusion) Tier 2: Zaxby's (merits inclusion) Tier 3: Church's Tier 4: KFC -- nm - MDH Feb 12, 12:21 2
      - Also tier 1 Roy Rogers -- nm - MDH Feb 12, 12:51
      - This reminds me, I really need to make the trek out to Jollibee sometime soon -- nm - Roger More Feb 12, 12:34
- For real. Like I am triggered by not liking Popeyes. -- nm - MDH Feb 12, 12:13 2
  - How is it possible to dislike fried chicken? Seriously. -- nm - Shaun Feb 12, 12:14 1
    - The question is, how is it possible to *ruin* chicken. - Spawn Feb 12, 12:16
- nothing is better than Kenny Rogers -- nm - Kramer Feb 12, 12:11 1
  - God I miss this -- nm - Jovian Feb 12, 12:36
- No more 99 cent two piece and a biscuit tho. It's $2.49 here on Tuesdays :( -- nm* - budice Feb 12, 12:10
I read amoxy's post on B2 and thought he was eating PB&J flavored Ruffles potato chips. -- nm - Strongbad Feb 12, 12:08 1

Right is right - Spawn Feb 12, 12:02 14

- Might is right. - ReluctantCynic Feb 12, 12:05 1
  - Price is right -- nm - Amoxy Feb 12, 12:31
- What's "good" fast food that you enjoy? -- nm - MDH Feb 12, 12:05 8
  - What do you consider "good" fast food? -- nm - Spawn Feb 12, 12:07 7
    - It's what I'm asking you. Good is in quotes until I hear your preferences. -- nm - MDH Feb 12, 12:14 3
      - Hmm. The inclusion of enjoy along with it leads to confusion. -- (edited) - Spawn Feb 12, 12:19 2
        
        It all makes sense. -- nm - MDH Feb 12, 12:22 1
        
        What, pretty much all fast food in the area *except* Popeyes? Agreed. - Spawn Feb 12, 12:23
    - DQ Grillburgers are good fast food. -- nm - Shaun Feb 12, 12:10 2
      - Mushroom burger for the win -- nm - Beryllium Feb 12, 12:55
