What the hell is up with our defense lately. 6 errors in 2 games.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Jul 8, 2010 -> 12:27 PM) I'd bet there are people that still wouldn't do it. Your looking at one of them. (more-so looking farther ahead as well)

I don't understand why teams just don't walk Konerko and go after Kotsay/Jones/whomever is hitting 5th that day.

I wonder if this thread will reach 350+ pages BEFORE 8 pm.

QUOTE (WHarris1 @ Jul 8, 2010 -> 12:01 PM) I REMAIN THE ONLY ONE WITH WITH STRONG HOPE (and rowand). Believe people Hey I was the first one who predicted he is ours. With that said I'll say it is Us, Cleveland or Miami. Knicks and Nets are 4th and 5th on his list.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 8, 2010 -> 12:53 PM) It actually read "a source of mine." Well I edited it just in case some douche would pretty much post the identical thing mentioned but "worded differently."

I stopped reading when that article said "source of mine."

QUOTE (MurcieOne @ Jul 8, 2010 -> 12:39 PM) I'd say what I think . . . but then you'd get mad and tell me to remove my avatar. His posting rep is at stake. If LeBron goes to Miami, Steve is screwed anyways.

You will fall in love with Lillibridge once again... oh yes... you will fall in love again.

Rios.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jul 8, 2010 -> 12:33 AM) Think about just how little sense Jones makes: He's under team control for FIVE more years after this season, yeah that's right, not a typo FIVE. He's super cheap so the Pirates have little incentive to trade him unless they get overwhelmed, that 5 years of control adds to this value. He's wildly inconsistent: since May 1st he's touched an .800 OPS 5 times but can't keep it up there over an extended period of time. In May his OPS range was nearly .100, in June it was .067. His power is also inconsistent, going weeks between HR, he's currently on a 20 game HR drought. We definitely need more of a sure thing than Garrett Jones (the man with the .340 wOBA that looked like a career minor leaguer until last season) and I'm not sold at all on his cheap price tag. You and your hate-o-rade post have become unbearable to read lately.

I love Stan Van Gundy's quote about it takes 15 f***ing seconds to say "I'm staying in Cleveland" and the rest just promoting him like he needs it already.

Ima predict David Lee to the Nets later today and he will be overpaid by the Russian owner, but try to sell him (all-star, young, etc..) to LeBron as well.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 11:40 PM) Interesting that an espn reporter chimes in... He was the one who reported the Wade and Bosh to Miami deal this morning and does have inside sources as well. Broussard might flip-flop on his "predictions," but he is spot on when it comes to sources directly.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 8, 2010 -> 12:29 AM) I now want LeBron to come to Chicago for the sole reason of making EVERY media source who chose to speculate and report bulls*** wrong. No one in recent days has wanted to pick the Bulls and that's because the front office has been wonderfully tight lipped. No one can argue that Chicago would be the best basketball decision for LeBron so I can't wait for the tiny chance that he chooses the Bulls and the world goes into shock. QUOTE (WHarris1 @ Jul 8, 2010 -> 12:31 AM) Bulls silence. No Bulls rumors with Lerbon. Boozer randomly jumping on a deal less than what he ultimately could have gotten elsewhere or here. Boozer signing for just enough to leave the Bulls with a max. Ford reporting the Bulls "skipped" on Wade because they want the bigger fish. Best roster where he can still be "the man". I'll be here tomorrow night to simply smile cuz I'll be severely incapacitated already, or I'll simply say I was f***ing wrong I suck. But I'm feelin good right now. You know I'm with the both of you. I predicted Chicago yesterday. Not backing off of it even if he does what I originally said he would do and stay in Cleveland. And if I was him personally choosing between the "New" cities... I'd choose the Nets over the Knicks.

QUOTE (WHarris1 @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 11:19 PM) The flying to Miami thing was shot down Man you've been on today bro.

5 errors, 4th straight win.. makes sense.

4th straight win.

BTW.. We left the Nets brass stunned..

QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ Jul 8, 2010 -> 12:12 AM) I don't really get your point. As recently as this weekend Wade and Bosh to Chicago was "imminent". So was Wade and Bosh to Miami. In fact.. that was the first thing people speculated about before this whole process started. Maybe that is good for us as most speculated LeBron comming here before the whole process.

Alright I've faded in and out of this game the last few innings. Lets just quickly wrap up this win fellas.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Jul 8, 2010 -> 12:04 AM) I don't think that is really true because LeBron will be without a doubt the best player on that team and it really wouldn't be close. Kobe was the clear #2 guy on those Lakers championships team with O'Neal being the dominant force. Would he get as much credit as he would with the Bulls where he wouldn't have another superstar? Of course not but there would be no doubt he is the best player on a title team. Sure he will be, but the thing is.. Wade has already proved he can win one without LeBron. Then your adding Bosh into the equation and your pretty much getting ripped forever even if you win 10 rings.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jul 8, 2010 -> 12:01 AM) You sound like me, and we're about to be crushed by the NBA's ultimate p-word. Only difference is.. I could actually see him doing it.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 11:58 PM) If he really wants to win, I can respect him going to Miami. Thing is.. for a guy with his ego.. I can't see him sharing spotlight with Wade. He'll get the same questions Kobe did when he couldn't win without Shaq till recently.

And Rios nearly misread another flyball... yikes. Thank god he recovered though.
