QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Feb 4, 2014 -> 08:56 AM) OK, but the people I know are in their late 20s to mid 30s. I know guys 40+ doing it, thanks to my profession. (even myself doing it every one in a while) Hard labor man.. for the druggies and alcoholics.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Feb 4, 2014 -> 10:17 AM) What if the #3 pick becomes a star? What if Danish becomes an ace out of nowhere? What if Laumann and the rest of the staff find a gem (or two) after the #3 pick in the '14 draft? What Q and myself are saying is, you just never know what will happen that can derail the FO's plans good (as in that, other or under the radar prospects shining, young players in the bigs living up to potential) or bad (serious injuries, prospects busting, young players taking years to develop, or struggle/never get it)

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Feb 3, 2014 -> 04:44 PM) Jason Parks just said he's got the Sox as the #19 system in baseball. They will probably be middle of the pack (#15th or so, maybe better) when they add up the #3 pick, plus the other draft selections the sox brass makes by the end of the year. A HUGE step from where this organization was just two years ago.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Feb 4, 2014 -> 07:21 AM) I know people who smoke 10+ times/week. Not that much, but that was pretty much me in high school....

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Feb 4, 2014 -> 02:39 AM) How many more dead grandpas do we need to get some life out of this team? Kane just lost it in the post game interview. Haven't seen him cry like that since Savard was fired. Kudos to him for even seeing the media after the game. He had an amazing game all around.

Congrats to JPN! Top 5 defense in NFL history easily.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jan 31, 2014 -> 09:16 AM) So anything before 2005 just remains forgotten? How else are we going to remember the Sox coming back from an 8-1 deficit against the Cubs? Not my rules Blake. But hey, feel free to start another thread about moments before 05' if you want

Shout out to the NHL chief operating officer for saying "Comiskey." It'll be good for popularity as well for the White Sox in some instances.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jan 31, 2014 -> 08:56 AM) Also, Konerko's homer off Guardado in 2003 to tie it, and then Frank hitting a bomb FOUL and then following it up with a BOMB that stayed fair. OP said 06' or later son. And didn't Contreras break the franchise consecutive wins streak or something in 2006?

JPN is the only true Seahawks fan I consider on this board anyways.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Jan 28, 2014 -> 07:10 AM) ESPN is the worst To be fair, it was a fan who asked the question. Stephen A. Smith wasn't too happy about it.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jan 27, 2014 -> 01:14 PM) Don't get me wrong, I have no problem if he is the opening day starter, just that if he starts in the minors, it's not the worst thing in the world. Let's hope the sox org and Buddy Bell has learned about rushing these kids too much. Thank god Jacob May for example figured it out after starting off so brutal in Kanny.

QUOTE (chisoxfan310 @ Jan 27, 2014 -> 10:31 AM) And this is of course assuming Davidson doesn't make the team meaning Gillaspie/Keppinger are still apart of the logjam. I highly doubt he does, unless he tears the cover off the ball in ST. Kid is still a bit raw (although the power is very real). He'll be here before the end of the season though. Even Hahn spoke about him likely headed to AAA to start, which I believe is the right move for his development (unless, like I said, he just murders the ball in ST). Let him handle the tougher IL.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jan 21, 2014 -> 11:59 AM) To summarize, the Nets just willingly traded for quite possibly the worst player of all-time. Austin Rivers, with actual playing time, had one of the worst seasons in the NBA/ABA era (I'm talking 308th in the league as a defender, nearly record worst 43.1 TS%, 5.9 PER.. yea I don't need to go on) and is still doing s***ty this year, albeit not as s***ty as his god awful rookie year, but still s***ty, yet you still spill out the same bulls*** most of us already know (although not nearly as awful as you portray the kid to be) seeking the "hey look at me" attention to your posts no better than J4L in this thread (who is miles smarter than you about the game of basketball btw) and then still pout about others in this thread who might not be as factual about certain aspects of Thibodeau's tactics, advanced statistical strategies (especially defensively... his abolition of illegal defense he fully leveraged and was really the first to do so, by loading up the strong side box while having the weakside defenders zone the back side of the defense.. just a brilliant mind) or about a Bulls player in general (and yes some are warranted) and yet respond to one, two, sometimes ten word snarly remarks back to others reminiscent to SoxFan1 who does it.. well.. almost all the time. No wonder why some good basketball minds here rarely post or just avoid this thread entirely. Of course I'm only pulling your leg and halfway kidding Steven. But yes, Teague wasn't properly developed here and he sucked. Bulls did what they needed to do to get under the tax. Best of luck to the kid. Maybe Jason Kidd can teach him some things with his high basketball I.Q. like how to properly bump into him with a drink in his hand without getting caught on camera.

He knows something... that Spanky....

WFAN Sports Radio ‏@WFAN660 20sec Report: Masahiro Tanaka has also confirmed to his agent Casey Close he will "seikou his wife" on the mound with the media at hand after signing to his preferred club.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jan 21, 2014 -> 09:47 AM) Sqwert, no doing this if the Seahawks lose http://deadspin.com/49ers-fan-allegedly-sh...of-b-1505721518

QUOTE (Hawkfan @ Jan 21, 2014 -> 09:23 AM) That would be epic if Tanaka created a half hour show on ESPN to announce the decision. And during the show Paul Konerko and Michael Jordan woud pitch the White Sox, and then an immediate rebuttal pitch by Kerry Wood and Sammy Sosa. And then if Lebron came to The White sox we could rejoice! He will add flair like a typical Japanese player however. "I literally decided getting up this morning.... then had to scratch my ass, bang my wife and took a shot of sake to really make the decision easier to take my talents to..."

QUOTE (dayan024 @ Jan 21, 2014 -> 09:15 AM) Stand down, folks. Masahiro Tanaka's tweet says that he "cannot decide." (via @IchiroReport) So who really knows lol And then this happens. LOL.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jan 21, 2014 -> 09:14 AM) Score said he decided Now FINALLY, s*** is getting real.

God some of the noobies here are making this thread unbearable to read at times.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 20, 2014 -> 06:20 PM) Which is kind of funny because Hard knocks loves controversy and Trestman is anything but controversial No, but Brandon Marshall usually does something "controversial" every training camp, so I guess there's that.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jan 20, 2014 -> 11:46 AM) You don't know that.
