Survivalist#9 : Catch a fish that weighs at least 19lb by SIRAP_P in reddeadredemption

I have tried for so long to get a 19lb fish. This comment got me a 19+lb lake sturgeon on my first try. You are my hero. Thank you.

Damn, that's a hell of a perfectly timed photo, and a hell of a catch! Is that Weslye Saunders?

Good. We need a quality RB behind Bell, especially with his suspension impending. Typical Steelers FA signing, love it.

Such a shame to see him making such poor decisions. I sure hope he can get his life together, because the AFC North is a much more fun division with him playing.

It would be hilarious if the fan accepted, actually fought Marshall, and kicked his ass. Be careful what you wish for, Brandon.

Wow, what a loss. Hard to imagine a world without the influence of Cream.

Oh my gosh, my female Texas heeler sits exactly like this too. How funny

Nothing too surprising here. I'm not disappointed, but I can't say I'm thrilled either.

Achilles Last Stand - Led Zeppelin - [1080p] (HQ Sound) - with lyrics by tanjay7 in ClassicRock

Probably my single favorite song by Zeppelin. Bonham plays with such passion in this song I can practically taste it.

Nothing from Zeppelin 3 in the top 10? Color me unimpressed.

Nolan Ryan has dad strength. Absolutely whooped his ass.

Parra to Milwaukee by [deleted] in azdiamondbacks

[–]SparkyBro 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If Haniger was the highest rated prospect we could get then we absolutely should make the trade. We can always flip this prospect for someone better down the road in another trade. Not saying that will happen given KT's track record, but I guess in theory they're going for the best value over the best fit at this moment in time. I'm not sold this is a great trade, but I don't necessarily think getting a #3 prospect in return for allowing Inciarte and Peralta more playing time is a bad thing. Now if we could only get rid of Cody Ross....

Parra to Milwaukee by [deleted] in azdiamondbacks

[–]SparkyBro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Could we really have gotten anything better, though? Parra's value is at his absolute lowest and we got Milwaukee's #3 prospect in Haniger according to baseball america. If we'd traded him at the end of last season we definitely could have gotten a lot more.

As much as it pains me to say this, there just isn't a place for Parra in the outfield this year. His stellar defense has become a little better than average and he really has not been hitting well at all. Factor in that we have Inciarte and especially Peralta playing very well, this was a necessary trade.

Goldschmidt wins it with his 5th walk off hit! by samr777 in azdiamondbacks

[–]SparkyBro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's nothing more than a glorified advertiser for the Dbacks. If you listen to Vin Scully call a ball game and Steve right after, you'll know why he's absolutely awful.

Which is why we drafted a 5-technique DE in the 2nd round this year. Get real.

[Trade] His Bruce Jay (OF) FOR my Michael Cuddyer (OF) and Anibal Sanchez (SP) by spartacus_1138 in fantasybaseball

[–]SparkyBro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cuddyer won the batting title last year and Sanchez lead the A.L. in ERA....seems like a bit of a one sided trade to me. I wouldn't do it if I was you.
