Get Out to Support This Team
While I don't think that telling a group who is actively posting about baseball on a baseball message board in December is your target audience, I will say this: talk about the white sox on social media, at work, and to your friends. Get the word out that baseball is back. I've said it before but I'm glad Cubs are going to be good. Baseball will be back in Chicago for first time in a while. Let people know sox are going to be great.

Sox acquire Jeff Samardzija and Michael Ynoa
Since the plethora of moves is reminding me so much of 2005, I'm hoping Ynoa takes the roll of bizarro Jenks. Not so much closer, but finds himself a dominating reliever as a sox, and makes his way up in July as a shut down reliever just in time.

Sox sign Melky Cabrera
QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Dec 14, 2014 -> 04:32 PM) Except Toronto's in win now mode too. That move would make no sense unless they got all top prospects back and punted on this season. He's not talking about TOR he's talking about OAK including him with Samardjiza. Trade was happening at about same time.

Thank you Jose Abreu
QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Dec 14, 2014 -> 06:47 AM) Thank you for being so good. Because of your greatness the White Sox are a desirable place for FA to sign. We were looking at years of a painful rebuild until Babe Ruth 2.0 showed up. And Chris, just wow man. #dynasty Post your love for the new king franchise of baseball This is so spot on. At end of 2013 I was so dead set on doing a full rebuild. Then Abreu comes and I felt so uncomfortable not competing with him. Thank you Jose for bringing baseball back.

Sox sign Melky Cabrera
Sooo Eaton Melky Abreu LaRoche Ramirez Garcia Gillaspie Flowers M. Johnson/Sanchez Looks pretty good. At least average in AL. I think I forget about LaRoche a lot when I think of our holes. That 1-5 is better than last year. If Garcia can be a player that would be brilliant.

Sox sign Melky Cabrera
If I have one criticism, it's that he did these moves too closely together and thus hurt our so talk discussion spacing.

2014-2015 NBA thread
QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Dec 11, 2014 -> 11:02 PM) I think we are getting close to going on a nice run. Say a win 12 of the next 15/16 type of run. I hope so. Every time I see our record I think "we've lost 8 times?" and remember those terrible boston/pacer games.

2014-2015 NBA thread
QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Dec 11, 2014 -> 10:55 PM) I only get national games (decided not to buy package this year since so many games are nationally televised). Looking forward to catching Friday. I never watch live...always on tape delay so stay away from all sites on gamenight. Obviously had a shaky first half but Rose apparently led back the 1st half charge and than Taj / Pau dominated 2nd half. Thing I liked was Rose seemed to be consistently in the paint. Key is to stay on the court for him...more games he strings together, better condition he gets in, better timing, more confidence, etc. I mean, at this point, you can just bank that if it's a game at home, it will be the bulls down like 10-2 or 12-4 within the first minute before adjusting.

White Sox acquire Dan Jennings for Andre Rienzo
QUOTE (southside hitman @ Dec 11, 2014 -> 11:33 PM) Lefties his him hard and his WHIP is very high for his ERA. And we are putting him in front of a not so good defense.

2014-2015 NBA thread
QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Dec 11, 2014 -> 10:50 PM) I only saw highlights last night but surprise more people weren't talking about Rose. Saw quite a few aggressive moves during the highlights. Ha, it was the one game I think I've missed. Was nice they had that 4 day rest for him/Taj. Now, granted Lopez was out, but apparently Gasol/Taj looked great.

White Sox acquire Dan Jennings for Andre Rienzo
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 11, 2014 -> 06:22 PM) Charlotte... waivers. Who cares. After last year, having some warm bodies who could come up and HOLD THEIR OWn rather than give up 10 runs in an inning is an addition. #hotsportstakes

The Democrat Thread
QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Dec 11, 2014 -> 01:04 AM) It doesn't matter in the sense that it's right or wrong, but again this idea of the effects of it don't make sense when your dealing with groups of terrorists, not a sovereign nation with an army. I don't really care about torture in the aspect of how it will affect how terrorists treat us. I also don't care think the response to torture reports are more important to comment on than the torture itself. The problem with torture is torture itself.

Looks better, but didn't think Downs/belli/cleto would be so terrible first two months last year

The Democrat Thread
QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Dec 10, 2014 -> 11:07 PM) Um, because you die painfully and definitively, whereas with rectal feeding you probably won't? I'm gonna go with life 99% of the time. Look, again, i'm not excusing anything here. I'll i'm saying is when you read some responses it's as if the American CIA committed an atrocity akin to the Holocaust. It was terrible, immoral, unethical, unjustified, unacceptable and flat out wrong. No question. It was not the worst crime in the world, however. And there are people that are concerned that terrorists will be motivated even more by this, as if terrorists who are already beyond this point morally by beheading random, innocent people, aren't already at an incredibly hateful/immoral place. It's like complaining about throwing a can of gas on a 5 alarm fire. As long as something isn't the holocaust, no wrong is done. Good to know. Hey ISIS is bad, but they aren't Nazi bad, so why are we complaining?
