I’m not sure there is such thing as a “must get” anymore with the portal. But he and Mingo sure would make it a nice class.

Raleigh, for all the reasons already mentioned. Also, Judge is surrounded by a bunch of high-priced talent.

IIRC, Samuels made some comments in an interview about UConn being hard, practices are hard, Hurley is a hard coach. And then saying he wanted to be given room to make mistakes and play through them. The resulting collective vibe here seemed to be that he might not be a good cultural fit...

When I walk down the street I want people to say, there goes Roy Hobbs, the best there ever was.

I thought Samson was very good at the high hedge in many regards. Maybe most importantly, that he was quick enough to get back onto his guy in the paint before anything bad could happen. His issue, however, was fouling while hedging. I don't know if anyone cares to look ( I sure don't) but it...

The prevailing wisdom seems to be to delay taking it as long as you can if you have the ability to do so. The guaranteed raises are very attractive. If you take it early you are locking yourself into a reduced payout of almost 50% compared to waiting until 70. That's huge. Of course there are...

The Marky's v Brown's debate. I slightly prefer Marky's but both are great.

Probably easier said than done however. The number of employers offering defined benefit programs has plummeted and continues to decline. Also, this approach would really limit the kind of work you could pursue and/or where you live. For example, teaching is one of the few occupations that...
