  1. I read "canyon" as "crayon" and felt confused
  2. Yeah, I'm not going to be overly critical but it certainly seems a bit out of LF. These moves can look good, but more often look bad. With 2 SC in 4 years, I won't do much b****ing for a while. They definitely have stuck their necks out there on the Bickell and Crawford deals...we've been shying away from keeping our young (non first-tier) guys headed into FA like that until now.
  3. Corey Crawford, entering the 2014-2015 season, will be earning the same as Kane/Toews (who will be UFA after that season)
  4. I think Tebow loves and encourages all the attention Also, I'm questioning whether there are really that many fans of his that actually think he is good anymore
  5. We just need one of these guys to pan out and our entire minor league staff can take a deep breath

    McCain would have been a good VP
  7. Yeah I liked it for the reasons listed above, plus the assurance that these guys wouldn't get in trouble ....woops
  8. QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Sep 2, 2013 -> 09:40 PM) Does this mean my laptop has to be on though to make a connection? I guess if I have to, I will. I'll look in to it. I'd also love to have my PS3 in my room, and not downstairs where it has to be wired in to an ethernet. Yes it does. That alone is making me look for a desktop.

    QUOTE (winninguglyin83 @ Sep 2, 2013 -> 09:11 PM) how did Goldberg finish? Unlikely to be a factor next season but I could see him in the pen in 2015 when the team will be better. I'm interested in whether the Sox want to have him try his hand at starting or keep riding him where he's been hot
  11. Use something like Connectify to turn your laptop into a hotspot. Basic college student stuff, man
  12. Yikes. Color me a bit nervous about the money getting slung around to guys that aren't in our first tier of players. With that said, Crow was as important as anybody in our playoff run. I hope he remains the elite goalie that he appeared to be throughout the SCP
  13. Yeah, but like, how good would LeBron have been in the 80s? /threadkillingarguments
  14. I can't even imagine what kind of bulls*** coach would be willing to coach the Illini now Hope Beckman magically does something to give us hope. I felt for him to some extent as the s***bags recruited by Zook were quite clearly not buying in -- I often felt that Scheelhaase was the only player who really wanted to win, and that doesn't get you far when you're not very good. There has been a lot of talk about how much the returning players didn't seem to give a s***. I just don't see any evidence that this guy knows how to coach, though. Hard to feel good about the future of Illini football at this point

    QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Aug 31, 2013 -> 01:39 PM) No now what do congressional Democrats do? They'll be split, as will Republicans. The question is how the splits go. There is the possibility for a very, very productive debate and the issues are not so overtly partisan that we might get a good, honest answer

    QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 31, 2013 -> 01:03 PM) The President has asked Congress to vote on authorizing a response. Yay. This is nice
  18. Cano himself is no cinch to stay at 2B over the course of his next contract

    Hillary

    We'll also hope she doesn't pick a complete imbecile as VP
  20. QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Aug 30, 2013 -> 08:03 PM) I don't have a PS3 in every room yet, and being at school, I don't even have a REAL comcast box, which means not even on-demand shows or movies. I like being able to have Netflix in my bedroom AND my living room, and hopefully an xFinity app will come soon and then I can watch pretty much every TV show and a whole host of newer movies available too. I can't imagine this not being worth $35, especially once they add a whole host of more options. I'm willing to wait to make sure it happens

    I wonder if any Soxtalkers have ever unknowingly competed for the same job

    I wouldn't rank him in the top 100 and I'm an optimistic White Sox fan

    QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Aug 30, 2013 -> 08:11 AM) Metabolite of Stanolozol is what the MiLB press release said. That's a true steroid, I find it hard to believe it can from anything on a shelf. If he popped for Winstrol, he's either an idiot, was tricked by somebody, or both. Winstrol cannot be covered up effectively and remains detectable for months at times. The only dumber thing to take would be nandrolone, which can be detectable for years (see Michael Morse, who kept popping for the same ingestion of nandrolone multiple times)
