I'm not sure it's out of bounds to politicize a position with a lifetime appointment. Their health and lives are political issues with huge ramifications. This is a mammoth development.

Right, I took Abbots pr as confirmation

Per Twitter. Shocking news.

In the Knicks package to Denver sense or the actual getting Carmelo sense

If I'm trading butler I'd want a lot more picks

Watched Hail Caesar last night. Wasn't great but I was laughing through most of it and keep looking back at scenes and laughing. Was also beautiful, as expected.

Aww man, the Athletics Twitter handle totally said his name was bubby derby and I believed it and loved it.

I know, I made the point too that it's ridiculous to blame hoiberg for. but I can't sit back and have people defend Kahn's tenure as Timberwolves GM. It was a hilarious reign of bad.

Seriously, you guys are insane. This isn't "white sox drafting poreda over Mike Trout" or whatever, it would be White Sox drafting 3 hs outfielders that couldn't hit instead of mike trout. Rubio could not shoot. Flynn could not shoot. I don't need to defend myself, you guys do. This is not a question that it was the worst draft ever. It'd be one of the worst drafts ever without steph curry being in it. I'll give them some slack for rubio's acl, but http://grantland.com/the-triangle/you-real...09-draft-right/ s*** was bad. They flipped lawson for nothing.

Also, I found the name. It was "Pale and Hosed Podcast"

ncorgbl's fine, he's at his many vacation homes in hawaii, lappin it up.

Kyyle, there are draft misses, and there are having 3 picks in a draft, and using them all on point guards, and missing one of the greatest point guards ever. There is no defending that draft. There is defending Bowie, defending Embiid, Defending Oden, all of them. No defending that terrible twolves draft.

I basically became my grandparents forcing everyone to remember something that may or may not have happened.

I wish I remembered. They did a once a week podcast and were genuinely hilarious. When we acquired Manny it was pretty must-listen.

Because the Orioles are crazy I expect we will not outbid them for Fowler.

Listen WAR follower...

I guess that's it, but it didn't ring a bell.

And lets not pretend like everyone knew Curry was going to become possibly the best shooter in the history of the league when he was drafted. Regardless, they did draft 3 point guards who couldn't shoot (even if they traded one), when the greatest shooting pg of all time was in the draft.

Can anyone help me remember the sox podcast around 2009-10-11 that was two younger dudes, lots of swearing, and in 2010 they had an excellent run of podcasts trying to end our losing start with different hexes? Obscure, and I don't know what else to search.

I thought rosenthal's latest article was topical (mentioned sox light on Desmond) but looks like it was written yesterday.

A lot came from the whitesox.com offish message boards as well. Gage will hop on eventually to reminisce.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Feb 12, 2016 -> 01:19 PM) I will never understand why a team would say they wont even try. Maybe the market for Forte was weak and he would have come back for a good deal. Its almost always better to leave the door open to something. Because Urlacher.

QUOTE (ozzfest @ Feb 12, 2016 -> 01:34 PM) You don't know how anyone can make that mistake? Sorry, Hoiberg was an assistant GM when they drafted Flynn and Rubio ahead of Curry. I still think that's enough not to want him as GM. http://espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=4506863 No, I don't. If you followed NBA enough to know of the Flynn/Rubio draft, you followed enough to know the reputation that got Kahn specifically.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Feb 12, 2016 -> 01:20 PM) Yeah,blaming losses now on injury, LMAO. They have been hurt ever since Rose's MVP year. Even with minutes restrictions. Even without Thibs. Noah used to get hurt before Thibs was ever there. What I don't get about Greenstein and anyone else who thinks Thibs being gone had to happen, how can you say that, but come up with excuses this season? They had the coach they wanted. They had the roster they wanted, and now it's worse than ever. Even their players are saying they are losing games they used to win. Taj getting hurt? Is that something new? He gets hurt every season. If you aren't going to get rid of Gar/Pax, you must get rid of Hoiberg. I guess what I said is irrelevant, but really just adding context. That 2014 team was one of the most impressive coaching jobs I've ever seen, unfortunately tarnished by a round 1 exit when their final good player went kaput.
