CQ looking 2009-ish the last few weeks.

QUOTE (bulokis @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 02:51 PM) Ejax fits well with the cubs. Plays better when the pressure is off. I don't get this at all.

QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 12:02 PM) That's if you think he means 25 guys hitting .250 and playing horrible defense. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and say he means work ethic. I won't. I truly believe Ozzie has below average intelligence and is fortunate you don't have to have above average intelligence to be a player, manager or somehow involved in the game of baseball. It's to the point now that I cheer against Pierre, even if it means him playing well will help the team win games.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 12:06 PM) I heard Michael Kaye on the radio this morning and TWICE he mentioned that the Yankees would be looking to add a starter "like a King Felix" before the deadline. Is Felix even available? The fact that he said it 2x made me wonder. lol. Good Bye Cano, Montero, Betances and Banuelos. Felix ain't goin' anywhere.

I really didn't remember so many people being opposed to the Dunn signing. I guess we can no longer say, "Well, everybody loved it at the time." I blame all this on Adam. I destroyed Humber during the offseason and for now I look like a fool. I stroked the s*** out of Dunn and he's betrayed me. Nobody outside of Kalapse was more stoked about getting Dunn. One of my fantasy teams is named Adam Dunn. Yes, I get an A for creativity. Ok, not really.

I hate when I have to give Wite credit. But he just demolished this thread.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 10:57 PM) I'd like to underrate her. You got that right. But seriously, I watch actresses like Julia Roberts, Cameron Diaz and Liv Tyler and I want to take my own life because they're so bad. Page keeps my ass glued to the damn television. I won't even drink when I watch a movie with her. She's so stimulating.

QUOTE (knightni @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 10:53 PM) Deep Thought of the Day: Would Dunn strikeout during home run derby? That was a good one.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 09:36 PM) When he did it for Arizona vs the Cubs in the playoffs, I loved it. Not so much anymore. Reminds me of Kirby Puckett. I hated that unathletic, chubby lookin' ogar when we played the Twins. Against everybody else? I loved him.

Anybody ever seen "Super"? Ellen Page has to be the most underrated actress in the industry. She's outstanding.

For me: E.T. - never seen it and I don't want to. ANY of the Star Wars movies - I can't stand Star Wars geeks. Pulp Fiction - I want to see this. I somehow never get around to it. Alien - this one shocks even me. I've seen "Aliens," but never the original. Avatar - almost three hours long? No thanks. I botched practically. Somebody please correct that. Thank you.

I'll take it.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 03:57 PM) Dammit J4L. Looks like my work won't allow the podcast to load. Will have to remember to check it out at home. Basically he goes off on KW for taking on 100+ million dollars in Peavy and Rios in the next 3+ years when nobody else wanted to touch either player. Also said that taking on Dunn for 4 years and nearly $60 million was frowned upon by the majority of baseball executives. Check it out when you get home.

Sqwert, here's the link. http://sports.espn.go.com/espnradio/podcas...hive?id=3028618 Just go to the Van Pelt 6/29 piece. And fast forward to like 17 minutes. That's when Olney starts talking.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 03:47 PM) No. Have a link to it? Just go to ESPN radio. He laid into KW. This isn't just Ozzie.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 03:45 PM) It's amazing how this organization has absolutely no accountability whatsoever. Did you hear the Olney piece yesterday? He was so spot-on that you would think he posted here. KW and Ozzie need to go.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 03:44 PM) Dunn's going to find himself benched next week. If he can't hit a crappy sinker baller, then there's no reason for him to be playing. I truly feel that the best chance for Sox to win the AL Central this year is to not have Dunn in the lineup. I love Jason, but the hyperbole law is lame. I want to go off so bad on this clown. But I can't.

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you Adam Dunn. Worst baseball player in the league.

C'mon, Adam. Do somethin' here. I'll take a walk.

QUOTE (kapzk @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 03:36 PM) C'mon Juan break ur ankle there Hyperbole. You're suspended. But it is a shame that something like that would have to occur for him to be benched.

We're not going anywhere with this offense in the AL. The Giants can get away with their bulls*** in the NL. Viciedo and more Lilly is required. And NEVER give PK and CQ the same day off.

Peavy got screwed there.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 03:14 PM) He was extended to be in a utility role. Screaming about bench signings is kind of ridiculous. Pierre? Obviously. Rios? He is losing that gamble. But to complain about the bench is a bit much. I'd love to see KW put together a couple teams with a more competent manager before I vilify him as well. You do realize we're paying Mark Teahen $10+ million for this year and next to be bad?

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 03:11 PM) Its Ozzie, he's a f***ing idiot. I get resting Konerko and switching in Dunn, but the rest of the lineup? f***. The '05 lovefest is over. Winning a WS doesn't give you a lifetime pass to suck at what you're paid to do for eternity. I want both of them gone.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 03:09 PM) He doesn't put the lineup together He's responsible for the crap Ozzie (whom I can't stand) has to work with. How on earth do you extend Mark Teahen? How? Why? Where's the logic.
