Just for fun/food for thought
QUOTE (2nd_city_saint787 @ Jan 22, 2010 -> 06:37 PM) we sure do got a lot of dicks on this message board i swear, maybe grumpy old men is more like it. This was all meant for fun fathom. It wasn't a shot at you at all, more a shot at our transactions this offseason. I'm sorry you took it that way. And pro wrestling absolutely is real. So is the tooth fairy. That's why the Rock starring in the upcoming movie about the tooth fairy is so perfect!

The Jim Thome Saga Ends
Thunderbolt, I think we're all very frustrated and even those that said a month ago "don't worry, they're just bluffing" are beginning to get worried. I still think it's 50/50 we sign a DH in the next few weeks. If we don't and the offense fails this year, then we all know who the main culprit should be.

Yeah...um, I think the Yankees would come out on top. However, I know now the explanation to why Kenny and Ozzie have signed the guys they did this offseason. Good news jphat, the offense will be fine!

Conan was amazing tonight. Robin Williams was out of control...no shock

Ankiel just signed with KC for 3.25 mil

Branyan has huge health concerns about his back, that's why no one has signed him yet.

The Jim Thome Saga Ends
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jan 22, 2010 -> 02:20 AM) What's going to happen when some of these guys go on the DL? You mean Kotsay and Quentin don't seem likely to stay healthy? You make a great point though, and it's pretty ridiculous. We'll probably end up DHing Ramirez and let Omar play SS.

Anyone have any pictures of Ozzie putting Beckham in an electrical closet last season? That might be our only hope of having an actual DH in 2010. What's even more frustrating is news that the Cubs are about to sign Gomes for a few mil to be their 4th outfielder. He'd be one of our best hitters.

Ironic that DePaul wins on a night where people are calling for Lowery's head.

All White Basketball League to Form
QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Jan 20, 2010 -> 10:04 PM) I bet those would make for really boring games, kinda like WNBA games without the t*ts and with the same jumping abilities. Time for this great youtube clip:

Finally an opportunity for Paul Hewitt to leave Ga Tech and go coach professionally!

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jan 20, 2010 -> 05:30 PM) Whose going to last longer...McDermott or Lickliter. Both have been massive busts. I think Lickliter stays longer. McDermott has done just a brutal job with pretty good talent this season. Lickliter has some decent young players at Iowa, but you never hear them mentioned with top 50 prospects.

Heads, how much longer can McDermott last in Ames? Staiger left the team today to play overseas.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jan 20, 2010 -> 04:58 AM) f*** this Illinois team. Can't hit free throws, can't box out, can't keep a lead. They don't deserve to win It's a one man team right now. McCamey is really having a great junior season. Davis looks to have found a little confidence in his game, at least. When you're down 8 against a tournament team and have Jordan, Griffey, and Cole on the court...you know recruiting misses over the last few years are killing you.

What happened to Purdue? They have no confidence in their game at all. Just a few weeks ago, they looked amazing against WVU. Seems like some really bad recruiting for Purdue since the outstanding junior class.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Jan 19, 2010 -> 05:22 AM) The Texas/KSU game has been a terribly played basketball game. Yep, one of the most annoying games I've ever seen. Give credit to Kansas State crowd, as they've been the only redeeming aspect of this game. As I said the other day, this might be the worst basketball season in a long time with regards to talent level.

Dye talking to Cubs and Padres
QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jan 19, 2010 -> 02:03 AM) i thought that's why they signed andruw jones, no? to dh? Exactly...mediocrity!

I would take him in a heartbeat as our DH over the mediocrity we have right now.

White Sox agree to terms with Tony Pena
Keep seeing these headlines "White Sox agree to terms with..." and I hope it's a player not already in the organization.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jan 18, 2010 -> 10:45 PM) There is no real good way to ever judge conferences. I just was wondering what would make anyone think Big 12 was #1? I can see arguments for a variety of different conferences, just Big 12 seems a stretch. I think the depth of the conference is a great measure. Iowa really drags down the Big 10, as that's an automatic victory really, as is DePaul in the Big East. Miami is a pretty strong last place team in the ACC this season.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Jan 18, 2010 -> 10:25 PM) ACC proved it's not in a good year after the Big Ten/ACC Challenge. Big 12 is probably a solid #2 in the conferences. People put way too much stock into the B10/ACC Challenge to determine the strength of either conference.

Dye talking to Cubs and Padres
Probably the two worst fits for Dye in all of baseball. San Diego's outfield is just so damn spacious, and RF at Wrigley is an extremely difficult position to play. From what we saw from Dye the last few years, I don't think he'd take too kindly to playing 3 times a week.

2010 Cubs Thread
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 18, 2010 -> 08:51 PM) He's a Cub, of course he will be good... Or you can go back and read the article in Baseball America before the 2008 season where he talked about losing 30 pounds, and check his stats the following season.

The blonde in the picture is Kiffin's wife. Nothing to see here to create a scandal, unfortunately.
