Benn's going to go pro. He's already #3 on McShay's WR rankings, and with the rookie salary cap coming in 2011, I just can't see many players returning next year that are draft eligible.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Dec 4, 2009 -> 02:21 AM) thats gotta be tough to reverse that call in front of a home crowd that just rushed the floor, but I think it was the right call, still had the ball in his hand at zeros Yeah, after maybe seeing it for the 5th time, you could see it was still on the finger tips.

QUOTE (chimpy2121 @ Dec 3, 2009 -> 04:16 AM) Wow, phantom call much? Even the announcers said it. All I can do is laugh every time I see Ryan Reid and Luke Loucks on the floor. They both suck. Horribly. They will never amount to anything. I'll never understand why Hamilton sits Alabi so much.

Merkin mailbag...
I predicted Vlad as our DH at the end of last season, and I still think there's a good chance it happens. I'm excited to see him in a Sox jersey, as we'll be able to give him his World Series ring from 2005.

Shoppach traded to Tampa
Good, Shoppach seems to do a lot of damage against our lefty starters.

Sox will not offer arbitration to Dotel, Dye, Pods or Castro
QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Dec 2, 2009 -> 12:22 AM) He also talked for the most part of 08 how much Floyd sucked. He has since eaten crow on that one. I made sure of it, because as his time progressed I turned into one of the biggest Floyd backers on this site. I also argue that over the last two seasons he has been our best starting pitcher. Danks is a close 2nd, but Floyd goes deeper into games and that is why I'd ultimately take Floyd. Buehrle has also been rock solid and was clearly the ace in terms of leadership purposes, but Floyd was very very good the past two years. Jason, I'm sure you saw the Bill James thing about how dominant Gavin's curve is (.410 OPS against).

QUOTE (Ranger @ Dec 2, 2009 -> 01:19 AM) But you did think the Floyd deal was terrible. I saw your posts. Absolutely...something that a lot of people forget is that it was during the Bulls game where the trade was first announced, and the announcers were saying there was a major leaguer involved in the deal coming to the Sox also. I didn't go back and read the thread, so I can't remember who it was (Rowand maybe?). When we found out the trade was just Gio/Gavin, that's when most of us got really pissed.

QUOTE (Palehosefan @ Nov 30, 2009 -> 12:18 AM) If some of these top underclassmen come out like Bradford, McCoy, etc, this could be one of the best drafts in history. Every underclassmen that's eligible will go pro this year with the rookie salary restrictions coming into place after next season.

I trust Hub Arkush, and if he says we're looking into the availability of other coaches, I trust him. I get a thrill out of watching Nick Roach on defense. It's like a Make-A-Wish contest he won to be an NFL player.

The Tiger Woods Marriage Saga Thread
This story is getting crazy, as TMZ's reporting that Tiger told someone that his wife beat him up and the crash didn't cause the injuries. She was chasing after him with a golf club when he drove away, but they're trying to spin the story that she helped get him out of the car.

Official 2009-2010 NCAA Basketball Thread
QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Nov 28, 2009 -> 05:36 AM) Also, Weber needs to stop playing Jordan. The guy is f***ing terrible at basketball and while the whole team sucked tonight, he was the direct cause of the loss by not rotating back on D after McCamey shot the ball a little too early on Illinois' last possession. I completely agree with you on this. As much as I respected Frazier as a person, Weber's motion offense works so much better when all 5 players on the court can shoot the ball. When Jordan's in the game, it's shades of Frazier on offense all over again.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Nov 28, 2009 -> 05:30 AM) Illinois Loses. Freaking pathetic and a horrible day of sports for me. I'm pretty sure Utah didn't actually get their last 2nd shot off but we deserved to lose. Did they review it?
