  1. Younger women trend toward Bernie because younger women are more liberal. You should write for politico thou
  2. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Feb 9, 2016 -> 02:42 PM) Greg, how many of those 84% of women under age 30 supporting Sanders in Iowa 1) will still vote in the general election and 2) wouldn't vote for Kasich, Rubio, Bloomberg instead? As things stand now, she probably loses half one way or the other. Plus, her husband, Madeline Albright and Gloria Steinem are polarizing things in a panic just like eight years ago in South Carolina. She's quite fortunate African-Americans can forgive their family after insulting/smearing Obama so openly. LOL
  3. QUOTE (greg775 @ Feb 9, 2016 -> 02:32 PM) I think it's VERY interesting that young women voters are being attacked by older women basically saying, "How dare you not vote for a woman since you are a woman!" Again ... if a man said, "Of course I'm voting for Bernie. He's male," that person would be fried on TV. Yeah, real tough out there for men these days.
  4. This is a really interesting conversation we keep having about greg posting things he's watched on cable news and how the media loves hillary.
  5. I have sat with this and am pretty happy with it. not much you can do as a fan with a bunch of rumored "bad clubhouse" stuff. He'll either be good on the field or bad on the field and if he's bad on the field we'll hear he's a terrible clubhouse guy during him being bad. If he's good, we won't hear it until after.
  6. QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Feb 9, 2016 -> 02:20 PM) So what can the Bulls do from this point forward to build an elite team? Would Thibs be having these similar problems? It is a flawed roster. I doubt we'd be 7th in east, thou.
  7. I think caulfield caught rubios glitch. Does that get passed through the air or
  8. Sour grapes, but would have rather had Henderson Alvarez for 1.25 m more
  9. Latos Rodon and Sale in the same bullpen, pretty intense.
  10. 02 Bonds I recognize as obviously the best offensive season ever, but still would pay ANYTHING to be able to watch 162 games of Ken Griffey Jr in his prime where black, white and grey
  11. Also an interesting question to me is if you took two all world pitching years and made a rotation of 2 historical players, would you say that's automatically a playoff team?
  12. I really wanted to put 72 Dick Allen but hard to choose him over Frank Thomas. We have Apiricio and Minoso to take the hole in SS, but hard to take either over the 90s-early 00s mashers. Surprised for the lack of 2003 loaiza love, especially 2012 Jake Peavy.
  13. Here are the rules: You get to draft two historical players and a specific year of their career in order to guarantee the current white sox roster gets into the playoffs. Example: 98 Pedro Martinez - SP 96 Griffey Jr - CF Open Considerations: - Despite the fact that you are choosing the best year of a player, translation to current era can be factored in, despite the fact that it may severely undercut this exercise! - Team fit should be considered. Are you going to get 2 awesome position players? 1 pitcher/1 hitter to plug in CF? Are you going to take the world's best 2b regardless, who cares if Lawrie's on the bench? For my draft, I'm thinking going SP/CF, as above, but maybe even: 96 Griffey in CF 85 Dwight Gooden - SP Gooden had 16 complete games in 85, which is the sort of relief which will be a huge help when you have pitchers like Quintana and Rodon who may struggle going late. Also - I never saw him pitch, so want to see 1 player. Griffey in 96 was what I still think of for baseball. Move eaton to RF and deal with Melky in LF. Lineup: Eaton Cabrera Abreu Griffey Frazier Lawrie C Saladino Rotation: Sale Gooden Quintana Rodon Danks/Johnson Alternative mind games: 2 historical White Sox players to put us in the tops. For that I'll go offense alone. I think Billy Pierce would be a fine choice but pre 60s players scare me. 2003 Loaiza seemed soft to me. 94 Thomas - DH 98 Albert Belle- RF Just mash.
  14. I'm not sure any of these are big enough names that we are going to get a bunch of "non-report" reports from the national writers. Wouldn't be surprised if all of the remaining free agents are just "SO AND SO signs X player to deal" out of the blue.
  15. It's pretty amazing. I thought they would fade after boxing day like we saw with Southhampton last year, but they hit it into overdrive.
  16. There's also likely to be a split convention. Just like every election.
  17. QUOTE (chw42 @ Feb 8, 2016 -> 11:09 AM) That happened to me when I first started playing FIFA. But there's a reason why you gotta accept the contract offer. It's so you can negotiate with multiple players at once. Ahhh, makes sense. I ended up splurging on younger promising players but, while fun, I'm now spread too thin for training them. Was easier when I focused on two and maxed em out every week.
  18. QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Feb 8, 2016 -> 01:28 PM) Maybe if Niko had built off of last year instead of becoming hot garbage. I was really excited for Niko but pretty clear he was more valuable as an asset. A lot of people were saying that at the time
  19. QUOTE (greg775 @ Feb 8, 2016 -> 03:31 PM) History is history. It was a factor in the election. Candidates as you are well aware spend amazing amounts of time practicing looking into cameras, making sure they don't look scary on TV. Whether it's 30 percent or 50 percent ... superficial issues like looks and how one sounds definitely trump the issues in my case. Oh
  20. Do we think Jackson might move off of this "triangle offense" kick finally?
  21. Is Holliday still demanding he be an OF?
  22. Hahn and Friedman seem to like each other's working styles.
  23. There is certainly an entertainment value to Christie as he is quite clearly the best bully on the stage. Trump is just crass but unoriginal. Christie clearly has the practice of studying psychologically what will devastate an opponent and hitting them with it. Not a great quality outside of the schoolyard but good fodder on debates.
