I think you went too far about Stone, but he does have a way of expressing himself that makes it seem like you said. It might be the overly fancy vocabulary he uses. Walton's brain? I want to see an MRI of that one. Loved him on a basketball court, though. As long as I'm blabbing here, I'm reminded of Jack Brickhouse, who had the same vocabulary problem as Stone. It all made sense when late in his career, he told an interviewer that as a young broadcaster, he would sit in his motel room after games AND READ THE DICTIONARY! The guy never heard of dive bars and loose women?

Side note on pre-season game 2: Jason and Stacey are a nice listen together. The humor is actually funny, unlike Jason with Stone. I'd even go so far as to say that Jason is better at basketball than baseball. I'm just conjecturing. Adam Amin is fine, too. Don't beat me up too badly for saying that. ?

Tony LaRussa to plead guilty to lesser charge
Stinky Stanky replied to southsider2k5's topic in Pale Hose Talk
So his record still has only one drunk driving conviction from long ago. That means he got away with it this time. He's one lucky guy. Yes, I'm a member of the fraternity of those who lost a close relative to a drunk driver. -
He was just re-elected to a 6 year term and probably won't run again at his age so I wouldn't give him a medal of bravery for standing up to Trump's coup attempt. Still, it's something.

Great tournament, though. A Lim Kim (never heard of her) birdied the last three holes to win by one. I believe that most golf tournaments are lost, but this one was won. She played wearing a N-95 mask!

Speaking of Texas golf, they're finishing the US Women's Open in Houston today at 43 degrees, 37 wind chill, playing in winter coats.

One of them should. Has this thread outlived its usefulness?

Which is to say don't let him throw downfield because he's bad at it. He did have one nice medium length completion. But it all seems different if the O line holds of the rush and somehow it's managing to do it. They wouldn't try to hold on to him, would they? I wouldn't.

Coby's got two PG's on staff to coach him up. If they manage to make him into a PG it would still surprise me. Lauri's got one foot on the flop line. Wendell needs to establish an NBA identity.
-
A grain or two of truth among the chaff there. But taken as a whole, incoherent.
-
First pre-season game tells us the Bulls are the same as last year, don't have the three point guns to compete in the modern NBA. Don't defend it very well either. And they're soft in the middle. Wendell needs to find a position. Right now I'm not sure why he's on the court.

The Cubs pitching coach turned that wicked slider of Q's into a strikeout pitch. Credit where credit is due. Velocity be damned.

Len Kasper is new White Sox radio play by play announcer
Stinky Stanky replied to ChiSoxFanMike's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Purposeful and unnecessary. Unless you don't buy the "Jonesing to do radio at half the money story" and think he was pushed out. Then it makes sense. -
Sox sign Adam Eaton 1 year, $7m plus option
Stinky Stanky replied to Greek-konerko's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I don't mind seeing some Engel. He deserves it. Controlling Adam's urges to be a dick should be easier with no supporting network of other dicks for him to play stupid for. A former HS teacher once told me that he looked around a class on the first day and if he only spotted one jerk kid, he knew things could be kept rolling smoothly. More than one? Problems galore. The money saved on Adam can be used for arm(s). I wanted Mazara back anyway. I think his "strep throat" gave him a one-year Get Out Of Jail ticket. Call me crazy, but I'll be checking back in this fall. -
Passan: Springer to White Sox not happening
Stinky Stanky replied to KrankinSox's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Don't confuse me with facts. ? -
Defense lost the game, clear as can be. Mitch was OK and the OL held together, for the most part. Better thinking on a White Sox site than the Bears' FO.

Len Kasper is new White Sox radio play by play announcer
Stinky Stanky replied to ChiSoxFanMike's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Now it's starting to make sense. And for Chris Meyers, Marquee guy and picture of amiable mediocrity. He had to know that he was out or somehow demoted, IMO. Otherwise this doesn't make sense. Does he have kids in school here? What's his family situation? -
Len Kasper is new White Sox radio play by play announcer
Stinky Stanky replied to ChiSoxFanMike's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Am I the only one wondering what's behind this? Hoping to know more, soon. Some kind of beef between Len and Marquee? Andy's still on-air at WGN, so he has work, that's good. He was about as terse as Farmer doing PBP. That wasn't good. I'm not a big fan of Benetti, either. Too much non-baseball drivel. Stone's voice can be irritating and he talks too much. You're probably thinking that I'm a dark cloud who thinks the last Sox announcer he liked was Joe McConnell. Well, maybe, just maybe you're right. Maybe. -
The Obama plan was nothing but a giveaway to health care insurers for which the insurers agreed to reduce their share of the health care dollar from 23% to 21%. Still a lot of money for pushing some paper around. Somehow that got confused with Socialized Medicine and it cost the Democrats the House and Senate. Now we can't live without it. He's a little freer now that POTUS discussed firing him (and Fauci) after the election because Barr wouldn't initiate an investigation of Biden and son corruption at POTUS's request before the election. Suddenly he found a pair.

Better make it known to management that you're available. You're smarter than anyone in the FO right now. Use 2021 as an evaluation year for the new GM and staff, OK, tank, and scheme to get a QB in 2022. ? (Mitch #2 !!!)
-
This will be appealed. It's part of the plan to get the issue to the US Supreme Court. Trump said as much during the confirmation process for Justice Barrett. But even this court is not going to reverse an election won by huge margins. Is It?
-
Hypocrisy in politics? Oh, the horror. ?

Sounds like one is You Catch It and the other is It Catches You. Same difference, IMO

If anyone saw the letter Murphy sent to Biden explaining why she waited until now to release the funds (bunch of bulljive) she could have saved the effort and just written "Because Trump told me to."

Rudy leaking oil like my old '55 Chevy.
