QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jun 13, 2016 -> 10:31 PM) What are you even talking about here? The "PC people" (I'm assuming this is an ill-defined group of generally liberal people?) are the ones in favor of stronger gun control and even for Obama's calls for a "no-guns" watch list. What do you propose should have been done to prevent him from legally purchasing a handgun and an AR-15, and on what grounds? The FBI had him in its radar. Thus as my President said, he SHOULD NOT have been allowed to buy a gun. Check Obama's comments. He is right. http://lawnewz.com/opinion/how-orlando-mas...i-threat-radar/

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Jun 13, 2016 -> 10:29 PM) And you want them all dead, how's that going? Are they now all going to die just because you want it? No one is saying don't blame radical islam, let's just make sure it's that before saying so. Radical religion is an absolute problem in this world, it kills a lot of people in the US and in other countries and across all religions. We are absolutely in a war against terrorism, and ISIS is a big part of that. But that said, you are saying a lot of stupid s*** right now. I am congratulating my former enemy (in philosophy), Hillary Clinton, for saying radical Islam which she was afraid to do before because of PC concerns. I feel a lot better, well a little bit better about Hillary today. Yes I am glad you said we are in a WAR. That's what it is. WAR!

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jun 13, 2016 -> 10:26 PM) I dunno, I think the hundreds/thousands of drone strikes that are carried out against ISIS by the US and its allies are more effective than saying offensive things. This attack doesn't appear to have been plotted by ISIS or any group at all. It seems to have been carried out by a lone individual with zero direct support who was radicalized by online material. That presents its own dangers and challenges, arguably even more challenging than larger-scale coordinated attacks because it's that much more difficult to uncover. But this is just an overreaction on your part. Calm down, and turn off the talk radio. This killer who thankfully is DEAD cheered the 9/11 attacks it was reported today. He was a scumbag who had no right to be buying weapons of mass destruction no matter what the PC people say. He was a lowlife scum who has killed 50 Americans in one nightclub. Shame on him and his memory! Cheering 9/11???

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Jun 13, 2016 -> 10:17 PM) Yes, you could die at any moment. But it is highly unlikely it will be from a terrorist attack. Please read the NYPost article. We are all on a list. We are all under siege. They want you dead. They want me dead. They want your mom, dad, sister, brother, kids dead. They want all Americans dead. Kudos to Hillary for calling it radical Islam. I hate her a lot less this week if she shows that kind of leadership. Do you realize it could have been you in that nightclub?? This is our country. Please do 'offend' them if it means us being SAFE. They know we will do nothing cause of PC concerns. And they are plotting their next attack and the next one.

QUOTE (JenksIsMyHero @ Jun 13, 2016 -> 07:37 PM) I get Greg is the king troll of all trolls, but should an admn really be telling a poster to, effectively, stop being a member of the board? Kinda bush league, dude. Aren't there rules about personal attacks? Thank you for your support! You are da man! That said, I don't want anybody banned even though I have been suspended twice.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 13, 2016 -> 07:43 PM) Rick Renteria managerial winning pct. .451 Robin Ventura managerial winning pct. .461 Please just say no to Renteria even as an interim. Please gawd, NO. QUOTE (shipps @ Jun 13, 2016 -> 07:44 PM) LOL Yeah thats it. Uniforms are their biggest attraction. They are incredible uniforms. QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 13, 2016 -> 07:46 PM) I don't know about biggest attraction, but the Sox logo is certainly iconic. I'm not sure if it's for all the right reasons all the time or if it even pays off, but there's something to be said about it. The hats are amazing, always in fashion.

All you need to know about the Royals is they are a s*** baseball team that feasts on the White Sox and lets the White Sox save their season time and again. 7-2 vs. Chicago this year and it woulda been 8-2 but one game got rained out in KC. KC would have won that game obviously in that 3-game series from hell in KC. The White Sox cure what ails the Royals ... always.

Some newspaper agrees with Greg. I challenge you all to read this and take off the PC hat and FIGHT THESE MOTHERf***ERS who have ruined our country. We are ALL at risk every single day of our lives. We are all on ISIS kill lists, people. http://www.feedspot.com/?dadi=1#feed/f_423...=43114937540794

So it's big news today Hillary called it "Radical Islam." Kudos to her. And f*** America if anybody thinks it is wrong to single out these MOTHERf***ERS for killing 50 Americans in a gawd-dam nightclub! Why can't we call those bastards whatever we want to call them. They are killing our people! This is a f***ing war, people. The P.C. police need to grow up in a hurry. These people are our enemy! At least Hillary did the right thing here for gawd sakes! I wish the PC people would just shut the f*** up once in a while. So what if "most" are peaceful. The radicals are motherf***ers.

QUOTE (LVSoxFan @ Jun 13, 2016 -> 08:27 PM) The saddest part to me is you're going to lose a whole generation of young would-be fans to the Cubs, because they've been on an upward trend for years--and now it's peaking--while we've gone the complete opposite direction. Forget those of us who have been around--how long do you think youngsters are going to get behind the Sox because their parents did when all their classmates are enjoying a first-class, winning team (in a great park) that's probably going to the World Series this year and probably more than one in the near future? Again: the last decades speaks for itself. The system doesn't work. There's no learning curve. Even having an ace like Sale doesn't help, or potential ace Quintana who's been getting completely shafted by having no run support. Our big signings are busts, our farm league is in shambles--just what exactly is competently run at this organization? Then there's the other weird thing with seemingly good players like Eaton or even Frazier apparently regressing while White Sox. The whole thing screams: Blow. It. Up. Unfortunately, I think we're in a McCaskey situation here with JR as owner. The difference being the Bears sell out regardless. We don't. Not even close. Hell, even the hardcore fans are bailing. The only good thing about the Sox and only thing to attract kids/fans is the uniforms. They are the best in baseball with the black and white stripes and the Sox logo. The hat also.

Obama is right on this issue. These ISIS people should not be given access to assault rifles! Why in the hell does any American need an assault rifle?? So a fear of the police turning on the citizenry has Americans loading up on assault weapons? I hate to break it to them. If the police decide to fight us, they will win. Ever hear of them dropping hand grenades on your house, etc? You don't need an assault rifle.

Q-What do you think the odds are of Hillary getting indicted on charges concerning her emails? I'd say 40-60.

QUOTE (Black_Jack29 @ Jun 13, 2016 -> 04:30 PM) The fact that Rollins was still playing at age 37, with tens of millions in the bank and a WS ring on his finger, strongly implies that he really enjoys playing baseball. I seriously doubt that he wanted to be released. It has to be hell playing for the White Sox right now with their record the last month or so.

LOL we are playing the Tigers again? We ain't such a good team vs. Det, Cleveland and KC. Look for more misery. We don't beat Detroit. that is for sure.

The Sox record since being 23-10 is ridiculously bad, almost historically bad if we continue that pace the rest of the season. Robin should be fired, case closed. The team's performance this year and last. The team's performance in the Central Division games. Just get rid of him. NOW. Please? It's obvious he deserves the boot as much as Rollins did and Albers did and Humber did. And Latos did. It's time!

QUOTE (reiks12 @ Jun 13, 2016 -> 05:53 AM) It is a mental thing For example you have Adam Eaton, who is on record of saying that the team was mentally defeated after last years opening series 4 game sweep to the Royals. He said they couldn't shake the feeling all year. Adam Eaton's line against Detroit, KC, and Cleveland: .177 AVG, .213 OBP, .302 Slugging He is just an example, I love Eaton and no I am not saying we should replace him or whatever. He is an amazing hitter, just not against these 3 teams. Whatever mental bug these guys have against the Central (minus the Twins) needs to be figured out if we want to have a chance at making a run in this division. For some reason the Sox are always a big picture team. Like Eaton said it was over after the first series last year. This year they gave up after the Texas choke. Game, set, match. Whether we go .500ish or completely in the tank, 20-30 under is anybody's guess but we ain't winning anything of note. The team has already decided that.

I bet deep down Rollins was glad to get released. Had to be the worst experience of his baseball career I'd think playing with this woe-begone team. This has to be one of the worst hitting team in Sox history. It's like the 60s when the mound was lower.

As the horror story of this continues I do need to ask the question ... Why do we need regular people buying assault rifles? Now if the ONLY reason is we are afraid the police are going to attack us someday, that is a pretty weak reason. I mean doesn't common sense suggest we ban such weapons from being purchased? I respect all people including gun advocates even though I've never actually picked up a real gun and I'm sure never will pick one up in my lifetime. Please explain. I am listening.

Why the USA? We're the only place in the world with these murders going on at least one a month. Why the political correctness? The FBI knew this guys was a f***ing America-hater. Why can't we make his life hell? Track him daily? Grill him? Rough him up? Our leader knew this guy was a danger!!! But PC means we can't touch him til he kills 50 people in a nightclub. All those young people dead. Probably most all of 'em had to be under 30. So this disaster most affects those who have had to grow up in a Post 9/11 world where the USA is a cesspool of violence. Chicago is a battle zone. Mass murders in schools, clubs, malls, next one is a sports arena. It will be so bad. You can't tell me these homegrown madmen aren't going to pull one of those off. Only thing good about this situation last night is the killer is dead. I still haven't read how the cops shot him or what the killer did with his hostages. Last thing I read was he had hostages. What a country. Some person reports she was saved only because she hid under a pile of dead bodies. Sorry you had to die, victims. Very sorry. Hope there is a heaven and you are in it. Hope all the future killers are caught by the FBI BEFORE they murder! p.s. could we please make it more difficult or impossible to buy assault rifles? I read the bastard that did this recently went and bought his weapons legally.

Fire Robin. You guys know who I want to hire.

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 12, 2016 -> 07:24 PM) Royals are just as dead as the Sox this year, just with injuries. 7-2 vs. Chicago. QUOTE (SleepyWhiteSox @ Jun 12, 2016 -> 08:28 PM) I went Friday. Great game. That turned out to be one of the 60 you win every year just by showing up. Good thing Melky got a good read on the final out or we'd have been swept. Please fire Robin and the hitting coach both. Please???

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Jun 12, 2016 -> 08:56 PM) I thought by not watching the game today, I'd do the SOX a service. f*** it, while they suck dick time to get paid, betting hard against them every game now. Me too. I didn't watch one pitch thank goodness and only checked the score as I was driving to 5 p.m. Mass. Disgraceful baseball team.

LOL at the patsies, the White Sox. Once again they are just what the doctor ordered for a lousy, struggling KC team. Ventura can't get anybody out and he shuts down our horrible lineup. So Sox are 2-7 vs. KC this year. What a joke. 2-7 against a lousy Royals team with a bunch of no names in the lineup and horrible starting pitchers who get healthy on the Sox. Sox are one of the worst teams in baseball, that is now a fact.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jun 12, 2016 -> 04:12 PM) This world sucks sometimes. Amen, Rowand. That is my reaction, not a bunch of political bulls***. Sadness for victims and their families. Glad the bastard who did the shooting is dead. QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 12, 2016 -> 05:19 PM) Why is every post in here about Trump? Even as someone who only posts about Trump, that's embarassing. Very embarrassing. Very. It shows even more how many Americans are so used to these shootings they just chalk it up as another incident. I think of the horror in that building and the poor people who died and all the people helping the wounded. QUOTE (Tex @ Jun 12, 2016 -> 05:31 PM) These are our neighbors, our co workers, the guy or gal that makes our internet work, teaches our children, cooks our food, takes care of us when we are sick, we say hello on the sidewalk. Now fifty have been killed and we focus on the rippling affect throughout our society. Hopefully those ripples take out the hate, the blind f***ing hate in this world. Amen, Tex. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 12, 2016 -> 07:03 PM) Online records show he was a registered Democrat. Law enforcement officials told ABC News that Mateen had been “on the radar” of U.S. authorities for a while, but that he was not the target of an investigation. Political correctness has to leave this country. What would happen if a neighbor had targeted the shooter and called the cops on him suspecting him of future troublemaking. The cops would be so scared to do anything. You can't target and harass someone you know. What if you were in the club and saw this motherf***er looking suspicious. You couldn't do anything lest you be described as intolerant of minorities. or a basher of minorities. What if you were in a church and some guy wearing a turban walked in with a machine gun and you tackled him after he waved it in the air? What if it turned out the gun was empty and he was playing a joke? You'd be arrested for targeting a minority. Political correctness must go. God bless Obama for his words today. Sadness for the victims. Sadness for Americans who are so numb to these things they immediately look to political ramifications and can't even emphasize with the victims.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 11, 2016 -> 11:07 PM) Tmrw's game has a lot riding on it. To we fans it does, nobody on the White Sox side of the field. The Royals get up for the Sox and the Sox are too cool to get "up" for anybody. Sox get mauled Sunday to drop to 2-7 on the season to KC.
