Mark I dare you to try and do your best to damage your Sox legacy and sign with the Cubs

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Nov 14, 2011 -> 08:15 PM) So here's a question. If all contracts are voided, what does that mean if/when the league comes back? Will teams still hold restrictions on players who were under contract previously? Why couldn't this happen with baseball?

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Nov 15, 2011 -> 03:49 PM) It boggles my mind sometimes at how poorly this has been handled. That we can't afford a guy like Mark Buehrle because we're strapped with contracts to the likes of Rios and Dunn. How we lost Hudson for nothing. It's tough to swallow sometimes. I agree, and then you waste 4 million dollars on Frasor. My opinion is that the Sox don't think Buehrle will be able to live up to his next 4 year contract, and that's why they don't seem too sad to lose him.

Tigers close to acquiring Prado for Delmon Young....ugh! Prado's a real good hitter and would be another good bat in that lineup.

I'm so sick of hearing the word "twitter" on Raw.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Nov 14, 2011 -> 11:24 PM) I'd rather have it the other way around, honestly. Though obviously I'm a "die Sox White fan", I greatly enjoy the strategy that comes with the pitcher hitting in the NL. I can't stand watching the first 6 innings of an NL game where the pitcher batting helps bail out the opposing pitcher.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Nov 14, 2011 -> 10:24 PM) There are mainland games now. Seriously? What's the new set-up then?

How is Belmont playing Memphis in the Maui Invitational this week? Isn't it next week?

Ellis going to get 4.5 million a year....awful deal by the Dodgers.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Nov 14, 2011 -> 09:28 PM) I disagree mostly because I can't get over how DUMB Carrie has been in the past 3 episodes or so. Not only did she have sex w/ the MAN SHE IS INVESTIGATING FOR TERRORISM, but she is now forming a relationship with him, while letting him in on CIA intelligence and telling him about their investigation. The show is very interesting and I am thoroughly enjoying it, but I just can't believe a CIA agent would be so reckless, it kind of takes away from the show. She's doing some of that stuff to get close to him to try and find out more information....and she's also crazy and off her meds.

Knight, I have seen all the episodes of Boss. I like it but too many side stories going on

False rumor, MLB Network stating they never reported this.

Suh is such a dirty POS.

Brian, have you seen her in Faster? She's a little bit more "enhanced" in it.

Maggie Grace is stunningly beautiful in Faster

With all the teams interested in Buehrle now, there's no doubt in my mind that it's best if Sox let him go. He is going to get more money than the team can afford with the rest of the budget issues. Use that money to extend Danks.

Wilson Ramos kidnapped in Venezuela

Is it out of the realm of possibility that one of these kids that was raped went on to play for Penn State?

If you get good value for him, then why the hell not? He's another mediocre year away from losing his starting spot.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 8, 2011 -> 04:13 PM) Buehrle has never been about going to chase a title or money. It has always been about being comfortable somewhere. It's really hard to say that, as he's never been presented with the opportunity he has now.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 8, 2011 -> 04:58 PM) I'd be more upset to see somewhere like NY or Boston, or even Detroit, versus the Cubs or Marlins. How does that make sense? You can't fault someone for wanting to go to a team with a great chance at the title. That's why going to Cubs would make NO sense.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Nov 8, 2011 -> 03:57 PM) There are a couple of situations where I wouldn't be upset with him, but signing with the Cubs or Marlins don't fall in that category. The Marlins don't bother me at all if he goes there. The Cubs would be just a giant kick to the nuts.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 8, 2011 -> 03:56 PM) I can't be upset with Mark. If the Sox really wanted him, they shouldn't have let him hit the market. Anything that happens after this point is their own damned fault. Maybe the Sox just don't want him back? They protected him last year, and still saw him fall apart down the stretch. With Sale going into the rotation, if they have plans to re-sign Danks (which we heard is a lot more possible than many think during last season), maybe they don't want 3 lefties in the rotation?

Buehrle always seemed like the one Sox player who really didn't care about the Ozzie/KW controversy. I have no problem with him going to the Marlins. It's to the point where this free agency stuff is new for him, and I don't think he's a good fit here for anything more than 11 million a year.

Cutler was awesome on that drive!
