QUOTE (bmags @ Jan 29, 2014 -> 03:17 PM) That's because every Cardinals player is a God until they leave for a different team and then they are SATAN Plenty of former Cardinals have received warm welcomes when they returned to Busch.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jan 29, 2014 -> 03:35 PM) I still can't believe how harshly they turned on Albert Pujols, despite the fact that him signing elsewhere was a complete blessing. I think Albert is pretty unique case with that exclusive 10 years after the contract clause.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jan 29, 2014 -> 02:23 PM) If anything we are more negative than most. I went to a game at USCF with a bunch of my friends who are Cardinals fans. They couldn't believe how bad the fans got onto the Sox players, mostly Dunn.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jan 28, 2014 -> 11:42 AM) Not sure yet. Gotta do some research. I'm 24 so renting cars is a pain. Its been a while, but when I was younger I used to rent a car from a Ford dealership for very reasonable rates.

No details on the length of the contract?

QUOTE (Jake @ Jan 24, 2014 -> 05:20 PM) The creation of a permanent SB site would be the most politically charged, corrupt thing to ever happen Welcome to the District of Columbia, Home of Super Bowl Stadium!

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jan 24, 2014 -> 03:59 PM) The economy of the state of Texas depends on the Superbowl coming through twice a decade? I'm skeptical. There have been 2 Super Bowls held in Texas since 1974.

It was The Greatest Show on Turf.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jan 14, 2014 -> 03:54 PM) It's landed black 8 times in a row. You know it's going to land black again. Thats no sillier than assuming red is due.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jan 13, 2014 -> 11:18 PM) Didn't want to make a thread. Why did the NFL thread get closed? I don't post there much. But I lurk there often to get quick bears info. The season is practically over anyway. Nothing left to talk about.

QUOTE (zenryan @ Jan 12, 2014 -> 03:16 PM) Well if youre going to throw out the weak point spread point, Carolina was just a 1 point underdog at home and lost by 2 TDs. Overrated. Mike Shula should probably get fired. What is a better indicator of how a team is expected to perform than the point spread from a reputable source?

QUOTE (zenryan @ Jan 12, 2014 -> 03:03 PM) I said how lucky and overrated Carolina was a few weeks ago. For how "great" Cam is, the Panthers averaged 12ppg vs teams with a winning record this year. They were home underdogs. How are they overrated?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 10, 2014 -> 01:12 PM) It is a big deal because of the damned games that have gotten played with vote. I can't vote for this guy because no one else has ever gotten 100%, so X-player can't get 100% either, is an idiotic reason not to vote for someone. This is nothing new.

Why such a big deal about Maddux? He got in on his first ballot. Better pitchers than him have not received 100% of votes.

QUOTE (farmteam @ Jan 5, 2014 -> 03:20 PM) Do people throw AFC Championship game parties? I suppose those teams fans' might, but that's it. They should. In general, I think the conference championship Sunday is the best day of the NFL year.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jan 3, 2014 -> 09:44 AM) My friend's mom has a big burmese mounting dog mutt. It will sit outside in the snow until it's covered. Pythons are Burmese, the dogs are Bernese, from Bern.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Dec 30, 2013 -> 07:10 PM) Because you are removing the deltoid from the equation and the weight still has to be supported by your shoulders, the pressure now falls on your shoulder sans delt, even if that angle removes some of the weight from the shoulder, any weight on your shoulders without the delts being able to assist is bad as far as I'm concerned. I personally think declines are a waste time, and never recommend them to anyone for any reason. If declines were so good, Arnold would have used them in his chest routine, and he didn't. I think you could be getting better results from other exercises, but that's just me. Not sure if decline presses are good or not, but I don't think this is very sound reasoning.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Dec 29, 2013 -> 04:40 PM) Packers have three turnovers before the half and are leading They have 2 turnovers as of now.

how the f*** do pros let that happen?!?!!?

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Dec 27, 2013 -> 11:37 PM) Alright workout guys, I need some help here. Looking to get a home workout routine set up. Going to the gym is literally impossible with my (and wife's) schedule and taking care of a baby, so the only option is working out at home during the downtime I have. Also, home = apartment, so I don't have any equipment (or room for it for that matter). So, starting with nothing but some gym shoes and workout clothes. I'm roughly 5'9" 140, so I'm obviously not looking to lose weight, but also not really looking to gain a lot of weight either. Just need something that I can do in the apartment to stay in shape and get some exercise in every day and not feel like a lazy ass. I've got about a 10x10 wood floor to work with in my living area. I'm not opposed to buying some equipment/weights/mats if it will help. I've googled stuff and it's given me some ideas, but I'd just rather get some opinions on here on what I could be doing for a half hour to an hour a day to mix it up and get some exercises that will help all areas of the body. I don't really think I'm one that could handle a p90x thing without dying, FWIW. I'm thinking I can set up something different every day where I do X number of Y activities just as easily with some help here. Anyone willing to help out, thanks in advance. Pull-up bar and a jump rope. Search youtube for bodyweight exercises.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Dec 23, 2013 -> 08:22 PM) Nice, this clears a spot on the 40 man right? Could use it to grab another catcher now. I think Davidson is MLB ready, even if he goes 220/290/400 we need to re-evaluate that slash line in today's run environment. 10 years ago that's a DFA candidate, not that's a 1 or 2 WAR 3B depending on his defense. If his defense is really that bad then put him in AAA and let him work on it pressure free, but he's gotta be working his ass off right now on it right, similar to Gillaspie if he just goes from "bad" to "cromulent" his bat will play. I could be wrong, but more moves have to be coming, just to echo some thoughts upthread, there is no way they go into the season with one of Viciedo or De Aza a platoon or bench player right? It makes way too much sense to grab what you can for De Aza (probably a C level prospect maybe a B if Hahn really pulls one over) and it also makes zero sense to give up on a Viciedo going into a rebuilding year. If he sucks again, fine, dump him, but you have nothing to lose by letting him see if he can turn into a 290/330/480 type with the bat. Pretty sure that with Surkamp the 40 man is full.
