Son of a b****. That is the best thing that could ever happen to that franchise was getting rid of him. Now get rid of Wrigley Field (as well as most of that front office) and I might have to start taking the Cubs alot more seriously in winning.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 18, 2011 -> 08:38 PM) Garfein says he hopes to be back september 1 He can take his time.. I love me some OBP.

Second time he was hit in the face with a line drive in the last two years. Last year he was hit by his mouth/cheekbone. (needed 18 stitches)

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 18, 2011 -> 10:18 AM) That nickname is terrible. Guillen is the one with a twitter feed, two websites, and a facebook page. Williams wants nothing to do with the media. I am taking the nickname back. He might be talking about KW's typical party nights and womanizing...

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Aug 18, 2011 -> 07:56 AM) And Dunn's contract was market value, the number of years wasn't ridiculous, and the salary wasn't overcumbersome. The main problem with these deals is that they players arent/werent producing. I find it hilarious people say that it was awful now, as if they knew he was going to have one of the worst seasons in MLB history after he signed it.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Aug 17, 2011 -> 06:06 PM) I'm surprised LeBron's entourage didn't try to confiscate this video. Maybe because that wasn't being "dunked on"?

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 17, 2011 -> 04:02 PM) Hahn's supposed to be one of the best negotiators in all of baseball. He is also a very big saber guy.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Aug 16, 2011 -> 05:12 PM) NO f***ING TRIPLES? He was saving them for the bigs. Already has 1 in the books. Hopefully Tyler takes a hold of this chance. Would love to see him rake from here on out.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Aug 17, 2011 -> 12:41 AM) Seriously, this team is drawing me back in again and that scares the s*** out of me because I know it's just going to end in heart break. It sickens me. But I love watching the young players right now. Missed this particular game, but I love seeing 5 triples (2 by De Aza, and 1 by.. Flowers?!?!) and an exciting win to the end by the sox.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 16, 2011 -> 09:56 AM) Are lap dances REALLY $50??? I remember $10 and then $20, but $50??? Is that at SCORES in NYC? Must be 15 years or so since I've set foot foot in one...I guess the economy is working well for some professions, or inflation. I remember when White Castle burgers were like 30 something cents back in the days, hell even 80 cents not THAT long ago... Less to my surprise when I went to one not too long ago (first time in a few years I went to one) Ugh. Oh well, at least I took out all my "frustration" on the toilet.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 16, 2011 -> 09:14 AM) Which brings us back to my original point that he's already a bust, the level to which is still being determined. Well we'll see if we can salvage him at LG then, since he has improved his run blocking leaps and bounds (which was what I meant from the 180 comment from that and his pass blocking)

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 16, 2011 -> 08:46 AM) lol nss you are evil I'll start punching his ticket to hell right away!

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 16, 2011 -> 08:40 AM) Dude has T-Rex arms, LT would be a fail. Someone should tell Sam Baker he's bound to suck then. Hell, 32 7/8 (which he was measured) isn't exactly "T-Rex" at the LT position (short compared to the average 34, but not horribly short). Hell, Joe Thomas has short arms for the average. What makes him so good is his quick hands/technique. It does help alot though no doubt, but there's more to it than having freakish arm length. I will say this, he lacks the toughness/the nasty to do it. Funny thing is, he was highly regarded for his pass blocking (average to below average run blocker) in college. He's done almost a 180 two years later.

Yet another NHL player/enforcer passed away. Former Canuck Rick Rypien.. R.I.P. (rumor is he committed suicide from depression) Sad he will probably be remembered for this other than his fighting.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 15, 2011 -> 12:01 PM) Didn't the first-round draft pick expectations sail quite some time ago? The dude's already an epic bust, we're just trying to determine how much of a bust he is at this point. I still don't think he was given a fair shake (or a longer look) at the LT position than he should have. But I digress.

Pierre.

QUOTE (Benchwarmerjim @ Aug 16, 2011 -> 06:22 AM) there are not a lot of Twins fan shedding a tear over this move. A lot of people, including myself, thought the Twins were going to non tender him in the offseason, so getting something more than a bag of baseballs is a win. How do you look at the Young/Garza trade now in retrospect Jim?

Congrats to one of the best sluggers and one of the best ambassadors in the game.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Aug 15, 2011 -> 11:16 PM) I think that's where he was going with that.

My boy Trayce with his 21st homer.
