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

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Mar 19, 2016 -> 02:33 AM) SFA profits a lot from turnovers and ND does not turn the ball over much. ND also does not press and leave them a ton of wide open shots. ND would match up well as SFA has no shot blockers

WVU is playing the worst game from a high seed I have ever seen

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 19, 2016 -> 01:19 AM) It is better they hate KW than Robin. So true, if they were mad at RV, they probably boycott a few games this week

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 19, 2016 -> 01:00 AM) The one where now Nightengale says they agreed to let his son be around as much as he wanted when he signed. The big one. KW only let us know he told him to dial it back, he forgot he told him to not bring the kid around anymore. KW is full of s***. Yeah, both guys are wrong and leaving out parts of the truth, IMO. Whole situation sucks, I hope come Monday neither are with the organization anymore.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 19, 2016 -> 01:55 AM) Wasn't there. Have no idea, still the Sox reneged on their deal according to another source. But that is cool because LaRoche sucks right? Which one you referring to?

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 19, 2016 -> 12:51 AM) No. Read his statement. He Sid if a teammate or manager came to him he would deal with it since the clubhouse is their office. It wasn't KW's . Did KW tell him a teammate or coach had a problem or did he just say there was a problem? And why did KW leave the whole entir ban out of his story. I think KW feeds Nightengale info and that falls in perfectly with Sales complaints about KW not being able to keep his story straight. Telling the players it was the coaches, thellimg the coaches it was the players and finally telling everyone it was JR. You really think KW didn't tell him there were complaints?

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 19, 2016 -> 12:43 AM) Nightingales story confirms La Roche wasn't lying. Well, he was lying that he would address it if there were any issues brought to his attention. Also sounds like KW might have changed the rules he agreed upon with Ventura/Hahn prior to the first meeting with LaRoche when he was angry, and that's what caused the rift with those guys. This has gone from a situation where neither LaRoche or KW was wrong to one where both were wrong.

Omg is WVU playing horrendous
