QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Feb 8, 2016 -> 11:13 AM) Guest appearance or to make some sort of announcement? Sounds like it's pretty much a mystery at this point.

I love the place. It's really a great place since the renovations.

The Challenge final involves beer drinking and carnival games? I'd be the best ever! Kick some ass, Cara.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Feb 3, 2016 -> 05:51 PM) I remember when it happened, I was so pissed that the Simpsons or whatever it was I wanted to watch after school was interrupted by that stupid bronco chase and all of the coverage of the court case. Ha I remember being pissed off that it was taking over sportscenter.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Feb 3, 2016 -> 01:39 PM) He's probably better suited for RF than Fowler. It all might be moot, but I really think the Sox will sign Fowler. That's it for me, Eaton is better suited for right than Fowler so that's how I'd line them up if we were to sign Dexter.

Ya that was super great. I'm in.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 2, 2016 -> 10:04 AM) I get there has been injuries, but watch 10 seconds of Gasol playing "defense" and you can see the difference between this year and last year. Out of everything this is a super weird thing to blame Hoiberg for. Pau has been lost defensively his whole career.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Feb 2, 2016 -> 10:00 AM) He's a nice player, especially at his price level. I just don't think things are going to change much when he returns. They'll be a little bit better but in the big picture he does nothing for them.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Feb 2, 2016 -> 09:40 AM) Didn't Gar/Pax leak that the players didn't want Thibs back, including Jimmy? Now it's Jimmy's fault if they aren't running the system they deemed to be the best fit? That is a big indictment of Hoiberg and the people who hired him and made sure to make the old coach look as bad as possible out the door. No argument from me. It's also an idictment on the players on this team as well. Look, there's so many issues on this team and I happen to think Fred is the least of the problems though it seems I'm in the minority on that one. All starts with Gar/Pax for me.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Feb 2, 2016 -> 09:28 AM) They don't even run his system though. It's all iso's and guys taking turns getting theirs. Blame Jimmy for that.

QUOTE (fathom @ Feb 1, 2016 -> 10:51 PM) Which part Him being an overrated college coach.

QUOTE (fathom @ Feb 1, 2016 -> 10:46 PM) Can he just go back to college and stack up on kids that got kicked out of other schools? Always thought he was an incredibly overrated college coach. Well that's not true.

QUOTE (oldsox @ Feb 1, 2016 -> 06:32 PM) Danish is too much for Ethier. Dodgers need to make this move. Give them LaRoach Clip. Good move for both teams. The Dodgers dont have to make any move when it comes to moving money.

I'd bet a looooooot of money that Soler will be a much, much better player than Avi. It hasn't showed yet but it will.

I'm sure Soler is still a Cub because they're asking the world for him and when other teams balk at that then they're not selling low on him. A lot of people still love the potential of his bat and The Cubs just aren't going to give him up.

QUOTE (knightni @ Feb 1, 2016 -> 03:48 PM) Soler is young, but he's a strikeout artist. I don't really think he's worth Q or Rodon. He's not but they're not trading him for Beck and Fry either.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jan 31, 2016 -> 10:06 AM) NL Central is a joke. Two of the teams in that division one win 60 games. NL West is way better. They also had 3 of the better teams in the league. Not sure that makes the division a joke.

I'm not Fowler's biggest fan but him over Avi could legit be the difference in making the playoffs and not, he's a huge upgrade. Having him and Eaton ahead of Abreu is drool worthy.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jan 29, 2016 -> 08:20 PM) Hawk is very confused. He just decided to combine his 2014 and 2015 numbers. If only that's how baseball worked, Hawk.

Avi apparently got booed? That kinda crap pisses me off so much. I don't want the dude starting either but it's not like the guy is lazy and doesn't care about his job, don't boo him at a fan convention. Awful.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jan 29, 2016 -> 03:39 PM) Expiring contracts aren't really that valuable anymore given the huge jump in the cap that's coming. Plus there's no shot the Bulls blow this up when there's a small chance of beating the Cavs and getting to the Finals. There's a 0 percent chance the Bulls are getting to the finals. I agree that they're not blowing anything up but they're not getting to the finals either.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jan 27, 2016 -> 09:25 PM) No. And I need to make up my mind whether to buy mlb.com this year. I don't think our offseason acquisitions make us a contender. I have zero confidence in Robin's ability to get the team to overachieve. Sox desperately need one more stud hitter to go with Abreu. Abreu almost single handedly gives me a reason to get the mlb package though to go with Sale and Q. QUOTE (LDF @ Jan 27, 2016 -> 09:31 PM) if the sox do nothing else, i will not by mlb.com or direct tv or anything that could show sox baseball. if they get an of'er i will buy something. if they get an of'er and a sp.... i will fly into chi for several games on 2 separate times to catch the sox games. I don't think mlb.com is for sale, guys.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jan 27, 2016 -> 08:17 PM) Lucha Underground good first ep tonight for season 2. Still don't like the woman vs man element but whatever I'm happy it's back and I agree fun first episode.

NXT tapings tonight that lead all the way up to mania and holy hell that takeover card is the best thing ever.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jan 27, 2016 -> 12:12 PM) I'm fairly sure we're well beyond spoilers in this thread... This thread was actually made so we didn't have to spoiler tag anything.
