fathom

Still weird that there has been nothing from Hahn the last few days. I'm sure the players would just love it if he resigns and KW becomes GM again.

Still haven't seen Avi handle an inside fastball this ST

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 19, 2016 -> 09:24 PM) There is another anonymous guy who is saying he is supporting LaRoche simply because he was told lies. So an anonymous player calling KW a liar. The player was lied to or LaRoche lied to?

QUOTE (Scoots @ Mar 19, 2016 -> 09:25 PM) Please, don't bring it up. We need it to go away, not linger. They announced today the Fundamentals Deck will now be called Drake's Den

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Mar 19, 2016 -> 10:18 PM) http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/15017462...icago-white-sox Player's union/Clark monitoring the situation but no grievance filed as of yet. It would be only fitting with this stupid story that the Sox violated the CBA and lose a draft pick

With what we know, isn't it safe to assume LaRoche told KW he would adhere to the initial request and then failed to do so?

QUOTE (Condor13 @ Mar 19, 2016 -> 09:08 PM) Avila and Navarro both said they have no idea why anyone would have a problem with Drake and they didn't think any of the players said anything. Looks like that's now 4 players that don't believe it was any player and just KW leaking to the media that it's was the players, coaches, and or the owners. No one is going to admit that they did to the media. Btw, David Schuster on the Score said today he talked to people he know who work for the Sox and said there were complaints.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Mar 19, 2016 -> 06:00 PM) These guys have some nerve. Truly believe they think KW will get fired. Another thing that amazed me from the Eaton interview was when he was saying how Drake has more "playoff experience" than a lot of them.

QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 19, 2016 -> 06:46 PM) Here's the Eaton interview if you want to hear it. The Dirk Hayhurst interview is there too, even though I think he makes stuff up. http://chicago.cbslocal.com/audio/670-the-score-interviews/ Just listened to the Eaton interview. Thought the following two quotes were interesting (as accurate as I can recall them): - with regards to the report that sox players went to KW with complaints "....they (mgmt) are going to throw that out there and see if it sticks" - "we'll see how JR wants to handle his front office"

Serious question....what does Drake do now? Has no classes to attend

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 19, 2016 -> 03:54 PM) He said he was asked to cut it back. It is there in his letter. He didn't have to cut it back, the team agreed to his arrangement. Why is it OK to break deals? JR didn't like it when Horace Grant broke his deal. What did you think of DeAndre Jordan last summer? Oh come on, he said he would address it if there were complaints. I'm sure when they came to the agreement when he signed that he said "if anyone but Kenny Williams or Jerry Reinsdorf asks me to make a change, I will do so".

Another thing to keep in mind with KW falling on the sword is do you really think he wants to let Chris Sale now if it was Navarro or Avila that came to him? Given how emotional Sale and Eaton are, I kinda hope the complainers remain anonymous.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 19, 2016 -> 03:37 PM) LaRoche isn't spinning his story at all. When he said the kid was totally banned, we had never heard it before, then KW told Nightengale, that he just remembered, that did happen. He knew he forgot something his first attempt. He conveniently left out the part that he didn't adhere to the club's wishes about dialing it back before KW said no access at all. Maybe that will be in the 2nd part of his letter in which he thanks the fans and doesn't plug his company.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 19, 2016 -> 03:31 PM) I just don't know how people can buy whatever KW is selling. He had is first story he gave the press. Sale, whether you think he is crazy or not, said KW gave them 3 stories, and the Nightengale story was yet another different version. So there is 5 nor even counting whether buckets story is anything, but that would make it bucket #6 officially Bozo's Circus. Both KW and LaRoche are spinning their version of events. Both need to be gone, IMO.

Will there be a moment of silence for the LaRoche family prior to the game? Will Sale/Eaton be wearing a DL patch this year?

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 19, 2016 -> 04:25 PM) If it was breaking a previous agreement, yes. You keep saying this, but even LaRoche said he would address any complaints. For him to say he wouldn't address it if it came from KW or JR is absolutely ridiculous. Seems like selective reasoning in his retirement letter.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 19, 2016 -> 04:25 PM) If it was breaking a previous agreement, yes. Besides, it doesn't appear KW has much respect from the clubhouse. Telander may be on to something. But the battles against KW didn't just begin. He appears he is turning into a Jerry Crumbs Krause type. The Bulls players and coaches hated Crumbs. Oh yeah, no doubt there are players that hated KW even before this and had no respect for him. I'm sure Sale thinks KW was tipping off his pitches to the Tigers.....kidding

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Mar 19, 2016 -> 01:43 PM) I'm assuming Kenny didn't mention that others were upset. LaRoche didn't take it seriously because KW isn't a player or coach. I'm definitely not defending LaRoche, just wanted to point that out. I still can't believe this argument being made by the players and some on here. Do people really think if Theo had to tell Arrieta something that Arrieta would flat out blow off his request?

QUOTE (daa84 @ Mar 19, 2016 -> 02:54 PM) eaton basically said he thinks the sox are planting the story that players complained about drake. If he didn't get approval to be on after yesterday, he should be suspended for saying this.

UNI with easy win

Michigan's best player took 1 shot in the second half.

Haha college refs suck

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 19, 2016 -> 04:37 AM) Walkup was a nice DraftKings pick, didn't realize he was a hipster. Looks a lot like Bryce Harper

Thanks for showing up Irvin
