QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jan 27, 2018 -> 12:08 AM) Cousins out for the rest of the season. Terrible. They would've been a nightmare first round matchup for any of the top seeds out west. I was more mad cause he was putting up a historic season for a big man that we haven't seen since Barkley. Hope he comes back. The good news is he isn't as ancient as Kobe when he tore his. Matthews, Gay and notably Dominique tore theirs and came back. Hope the same for him.

Top White Sox Prospects, Preseason 2018
Great top 10. Love Cease, so props to you guys for valuing his upside as much as I do. Only gripe is Clarkin is too low (definitely a top 20 prospect in my book). Basabe as well.

Luis Robert
He talks about the Sox around the 31 minute mark for the lazy guys. BTW, Cistulli is annoying.

ATL, CHA, LA, MEM, DAL all won tonight. Kings and Magic (two worst records right now) play tomorrow so that was a big tank loss right there.

What a game. OT about to commence. Jerian Grant putting up 20 and 13. Who saw that coming? Boogie putting up NBA2K numbers.

Forgot how dirty Jags players are (although it's Gronk so I'll allow it).

Crow isn't married though.. I know he just had a son as well. I think something is up (Hawks are being waaaay too quiet about it and now it's making sense) but I don't know if it's THAT serious (although obviously who knows).

Saw this on another board.

They gave them a run. Think GS put it on cruise control a bit there. Kris Dunn falling on his face and breaking his teeth didn't help matters though. Bulls bench was definitely better than theirs but their starters are just too much. Great game.

2017-2018 NHL discussion thread
Luckily Bowman started the "getting younger" theme in time. They've got guys now that look the part and a few promising prospects in the cupboard, but it's a bit dire from a couple of contracts. If Crawford is indeed done, no excuse not to play the 24 year old Forsberg and see what you have in him.

Bamba would've been ideal back in the early 2000s as a Ben Wallace type player. His offensive game is really, really lacking.

2017-18 official NBA discussion thread
Cleveland in particular is really in a bind. They have a good asset to trade in that Brooklyn pick but do they mortgage their future to make a run at it with LeBron or do they stay status quo and likely get embarrassed by GS and LeBron probably leaves? Not advocating he has that kind of value, but Mirotic (and Holiday in particular) would look really good with them right now. Then again, DeAndre Jordan would be the ideal get for them.

2017 Offseason White Sox News, Notes, and Tweets thread
QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Dec 30, 2017 -> 08:44 AM) As long as he can keep himself in freakish shape and transposes those physical gifts onto the field, I have no problem with the number of selfies he posts on social media. Looking at (I believe) his gf's IG, looks like he's gonna be a father as well.
