QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jun 5, 2015 -> 12:27 PM) Zack Ryder, yet again. I honestly thought we were gonna see Finn Bailor. He is the #1 contender, correct? Yup. That match is live on the network at 3 AM on the 4th of July from Tokyo. Pretty badass.

We're still stopped BUT THEYRE GIVING OUT FREE SNACK PACKS NOW. And I've cracked open a beer.

QUOTE (farmteam @ Jun 5, 2015 -> 07:59 AM) I've never taken an Amtrak, and from everything I've heard, I don't want to. Taking one back to Chicago right now and we haven't moved in 40 minutes. Planned out this trip a few months ago and this seemed like a good idea cause we went to Jimmy Buffett yesterday and we were going to be drinking all night so driving seemed like a bad move. Regretting this now. On the plus side I'm going to the whole Sox-Tigers series this weekend and miss Sale and Rodon. Sigh.

I forgot just how f***in much I hate Amtrak.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 5, 2015 -> 12:19 AM) Awesome post Dick Allen. This Bulls team is not going to win more games with Fred than it did with Thibs. Ya it's going to really suck to stop winning those championships.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jun 5, 2015 -> 05:43 AM) This team with Thibs this year disappointed. They were suppose to be a 1 or 2 seed and just barely got a 3 seed. They could very easily win more than 50 games next year just by switching coaches. As much as I hate Cleveland, sucks that Kyrie is probably done. It's the finals and you want both teams as healthy as they can be. If this goes past 5 games, I'd be shocked, if he is indeed out. It's not going past 5.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 4, 2015 -> 08:13 AM) I guess I am part of the Thibs army, but the real problem I had was not with the Bulls dismissing him, although I don't think they will be a better team because of it, it was how it was done. The hatchet job the day of the firing was over the top, but they, the guys who have been crying about leaks, have been leaking crap for months. Players in their exit interviews want to avoid Thibs, this must have come from Thibs. So and so leaked this and that, whether that is true or not we will never know. What we do know is Gar Forman's quotes during the press conference announcing the dismissal and the press conference naming the Mayor was full of lies. I hope the Mayor wins 75 next year, but if players keep getting injured, like Noah did before Thibs was around, who are they going to blame? I do agree that management handled this in a piss poor fashion though. You're 100 percent correct on that.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 4, 2015 -> 05:37 AM) It is funny how the Bulls smear campaign organized months ago vs Thibs has been successful. Even thiugh he coached without his best player more than half the games during his tenure, he has a.top 5 all time winning percentage. His offense is old, horrible etc. yet somehow it was top 10 in efficiency with guys like Aaron Brooks and Kirk Hinrich getting decent minutes. He ran players into the ground, yet the only 2 with real heavy minutes were Pau, having his best season in years, and Jimmy Buckets, who somehow overcame being run into the ground last year and this to be voted the leagues most improved player. Maybe Thibs had to go, but there is no basketball reason that needed to happen. The hatchet job started stealthfully months ago, and kept on continuing. Just the other day i heard a media member slammimg Thibs for playing Noah 40 minutes a night on one leg. He played 40 minutes in 2 games this year. One was OT, one was double OT. The total lack of class the Bulls organization showed will bite them in the ass one day. I hope the Mayor succeeds, but I doubt he will squeeze more wins out of the team if the players reamin the same and Rose plays less than half the time. And yet, absolutely nothing to show for it. There is nobody here who doesn't think Thibs was a good basketball coach but especially after this postseason it was time to move on. I have absolutely no clue of Hoiberg is the right replacement choice but I do know that Thibs wasnt winning a championship here with this group of core players, that alone is enough to get rid of him imo.

I LOVE YOU CHRIS SALE

I think it's safe to say that Sale is the best athlete in the history of sports.

That was interesting. Big time Brock-Austin tease but I'm pretty sure Austin would die in the ring with Brock.

Cena has been so awesome in the ring this year but his promos still drive me nuts. KO is the best thing in pro wrestling right now.

So who is pumped for a Big Show-Ryback feud?!?!?!?

QUOTE (bmags @ May 31, 2015 -> 10:17 PM) Was literally no tv in whole place Ya this wedding was at a country club so there were tv's everywhere. The bride told the bartenders they weren't allowed to turn them on but we overpowered that cause we're good friends.

Good god that was amazing.

QUOTE (bmags @ May 31, 2015 -> 09:30 AM) Was at a wedding. During the fathers speech downloaded nbc sports app and turned on game and a geico ad auto plays at full volume. Not a good look. I was also at a wedding, we made the bartenders turn it on in the 3rd, the bride did not approve.

Rodon with no walks = buenoness.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ May 29, 2015 -> 12:58 PM) There was no reason for Derick to still be in that 76ers game. Every coach in the NBA has him in there. This is really an unfair criticism of Thibs that he's received since that moment.

What an absurd sport and team. Jebus.

Wow Steph wow.

2 more. And then 4 more!

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 23, 2015 -> 10:09 PM) Outside of the Shaq/Kobe Lakers, I can't think of any team post-2000 better than these Warriors. I've probably been higher on this Warriors team than most but ya you can absolutely make an argument for them once they finish off Cleveland.

Is Steph Curry real life?

Obligatory Warriors post.
