There's also just a complete lack of confidence. A "how will we screw it up this time" look.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 20, 2015 -> 08:23 PM) This is getting hard to watch on a daily basis. It really is. Regardless of its early or whatever, they just look like a last place team.

Kind of amazed sale has only 6 PAs?

Couple of hangers

Danks looks good. Shame this team makes watching the a chore.

Team is so watchable.

Eastern Conference basketball, catch the fever!!! Regardless, actually is good defense by two good defensive teams.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 20, 2015 -> 01:44 PM) TBH, I'd rather get 25 minutes of 110% Derrick Rose who attacks the rim, than 40 minutes of 80% Derrick Rose who just shoots 3's. not me. Anyone who watched how little flexibility we had with the last regular season bucks/bulls game would ever say that. Brooks could not do anything to stop MCW and Moore could not play 40 minutes.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 20, 2015 -> 11:30 AM) First someone has to not claim him. Remember he didn't past the low end of the AL last time because the White Sox claimed him. Yeah, but I'm a little more optimistic after showing how little he had to offer.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Apr 20, 2015 -> 08:23 AM) The investor guy was confident they'd get their project approved, but a few days after the election, the Alderman pulled the plug. No deal. Figured that was possible, this was a hard thing to pull off. At least we got a total of $3000 in earnest money out of it, and a chance to get more up to 3% of listing price. Back on the market a few days ago, already have had about 7 showings. And people asking for financials and condo association rules, which usually means they are serious. Seems the market is a lot stronger now than a few months ago, so maybe we get a higher offer anyway. Last year there was a huge run-up in Spring before it corrected, looks like same will happen again (more than usual for the spring market).

Brooklyn really takes a beautiful game and makes it ugly slow and dumb. And old.

Russell Woods, former Simeon player, transferring to Missouri.

No idea how Cleveland is going to contain any offense in the east. They are so lazy.

Nothing more annoying than fans of a team with Lebron James complaining about calls.

I actually think PK would be a great manager, but it's been too soon, and I think too many saw his PR tour ending where he was barely engaged in games for that to work.

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 17, 2015 -> 04:48 PM) They'd probably hire Buddy Bell as the interim. Think about that.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Apr 17, 2015 -> 04:28 PM) They probably do need a new manager. Phewph, Kalapse said it, talk about back up.

Especially with a struggling team, you have to do everything in your power to preserve the game. He saved it for later ?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 17, 2015 -> 04:05 PM) No, I'm saying that "the umps get to decide how fast the game needs to move on" to me translates to "your manager moved to f***ing slow and lost the game because of it". It's not a defense, it's an indictment. That's how I interpret it too.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 17, 2015 -> 03:46 PM) Then the default in the 9th inning on a close play should be "get the challenge started". In the time they stood around NY should have been able to get things almost done anyway. Exactly, it's the same you see with Tennis players. As it gets later they get more risky with challenges because it doesn't matter, you can't use them after the match. They don't rollover.

QUOTE (shysocks @ Apr 17, 2015 -> 03:45 PM) But how many times have football players (even vet ones) finished a play and begged their coach to challenge whatever it was, and then you see the replay and they're so far off you wonder where the hell they just were? I don't think you can always trust what your players tell you. Challenges are just much less tactical or needed in baseball. and it's the NINTH inning, not the first.

Yeah, whatever, I'm fine with overreacting. I thought Robin was improving, but I don't particularly care about his career at all, so whatever. Replace him now. This team just doesn't know how to play baseball and that's his job.

Amen Alexei.

Only Dick Allen would take the side of it being acceptable for major league officials in charge of utilizing the league's instant review system to not have the full available information to make a call.
