Like I said, incompetent refs in college https://twitter.com/bbelden330/status/711649468513443842

More incompetence by college refs...ND given ball to start 2nd half despite getting the last jump ball of the first half.

Layup drill for ND so far if they make the extra pass.

Case closed, everyone to be quiet about it according to JR

Blurb in this article that there is no chance sox are trading Sale https://www.bostonglobe.com/sports/2016/03/...xnfM/story.html

Matt Davidson has had some great at bats this ST

Kahnle looked filthy

Saladino homers of Jansen

QUOTE (Hatchetman @ Mar 19, 2016 -> 09:56 PM) This is why it wasn't put in writing, from players union chief Tony Clark. Clark did say the union is interested in separate rules and policies set by clubs, especially if they violate baseball's labor contract. "We are interested in those, particularly when we find out about them," Clark said. "And we're always concerned about any individual agreement violates the collective bargaining agreement as a whole. Didn't he say he had same agreement with Nats? Also assume Hahn looked up what's allowed as it was said he looked into it.

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.
