Buehrle>Wood

Thank you Boozer. Thank you Hinrich. Thank you Derrick Rose. Amazing season boys. Melo mania starts now.

52 through 3. Okay.

I love Kirk Hinrich fade aways.

Lol kirk

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 30, 2014 -> 01:26 AM) No he needs to work on not swinging at everything out of the zone. Make pitchers give him a pitch he can hit Nah he needs to keep on being one of the better hitters in the game

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 30, 2014 -> 01:24 AM) Horrible AB by Abreu.. He needs some patience He needs to keep doing what he's doing

Are the refs as bad on TV as at the game

Lol that foul call

Kirk Hinrich everyone. Please play Augustine the rest of the game. At least when he misses it's entertaining.

I feel we hear this about every Olympics/World Cup and nothing is ever done.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 29, 2014 -> 07:07 PM) Sterling got what he deserved but it is time for everyone to be held to the same standard. It'll be interesting to see how sexual and violent crimes are treated going further.

Watching Raw now. Wow Cena gave a top notch promo for once. Now Bray is upping it. Great stuff. Reigns in the main event, ugh.

Sounds like a backtrack to me Cuban.

Ming the Merciless is still alive? Also Boyega is black. I wonder if they are discontinuing a Skywalker kid being the focus of the films, if he is indeed the lead, since han, leia, and luke (and his wife) are all white. I wouldn't be against that.

I find it funny Mark Jackson told the fans not to show up at the Clippers game tonight. Thanks Mark

Probably a lot more winnable today than tomorrow. Let's do it. Tough series, will go a long way in showing what this team is if we can finish the month over .500

It's dog day I think a couple extra 1 or 2k usually for that. But yeah even then can't imagine a lot.

Weather updates please. Heading to the game. Thanks to both above.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 27, 2014 -> 11:27 PM) I Ubered last night. I may never take a taxi again The first two times I called tried them they didn't show. I was pretty pissed.

...can he pitch, say, Wednesday? Is that even 15 days?

What's wrong with the hire? Don't know anything about him other than the resume. D2 national champion. Hiring d2 coaches is sort of unprecedented but if you just think of as a longtime assistant, which he was, I don't see the problem.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Apr 28, 2014 -> 09:36 PM) Don't look now but the lineup is out and it features Beckham in #2 hole and Semien batting last. Not sure I like either there but someone has to bat there. It does probably indicate Ventura likes Beckham better than Semien.

Regarding Illinois, yeah I've posted about them forever but I was certainly more defensive (passive is probably the better word here) about Weber/Zook compared to the rest of you guys so I'm not sure where that comes in. I'm wait and see on Groce. This year was ultimately disappointing but the previous one was better so it balances out for me. Beckman I've seen enough to decide that he should have been gone. Not only are we not competing, we haven't even looked closed to doing so for the most part. Well, we've had this same argument a million times; you know my stance. I'm rooting for the team to succeed. I go down to the games and enjoy myself. I wouldn't do that if I wished them to lose. Hopefully they make it a lot more enjoyable to make that trip, and soon.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Apr 28, 2014 -> 05:57 PM) That's not really the point. The next time you post something positive it will be the first time. About Beckman? Probably right. There has been next to nothing in two years that has been anything positive to post about unfortunately. Do you truly believe I'd root against my own teams to justify my soxtalk.com posts? I like you Krush but not that much. There's one other guy who I can think of that matched my dislike of Beckman. Now I have 0 problem being wrong and rooting him on since he's found some success. He plays catcher for the Sox. If Beckman goes out and wins like he's supposed to I will do the same of course. I'm offering my opinion. Not being a guy of any sort. There's no reason to offer a positive opinion over a negative one if it's flawed just for the sake a posting style.
