Isaiah Austin is done with basketball because of some genetic disorder. That kid has been through a ton, I feel real bad for him.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jun 22, 2014 -> 11:48 AM) I am going off the 80 grade. And I just think that he may have terrific raw speed, it simply is not manifesting itself on the baseball field yet. He is only 14 for 23 in SBs. Meh, sb's are far from the only thing elite speed does for a player.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Jun 21, 2014 -> 02:38 PM) Meh, I guess there's no swaying people so I'm just gonna let it ride. Looking more into Afflalo more, he seems to really make since for this team. If all goes wrong and 1. LBJ stays in Miami and Melo stays in NY (Nothing we can do about that), and 2. we don't wanna trade Noah+ for Love (which most here don't wanna do) then I'd have no problem with Afflalo being the major piece brought in......He was a borderline All Star last year and the Bulls would be able to build a really strong bench with the extra money they save. Again not my first choice, but not a bad choice. Acquiring just Afflalo does nothing for us.

What an entertaining freakin game.

Err...

And just like that Messi go boom

QUOTE (bmags @ Jun 21, 2014 -> 11:56 AM) I guess France? The French have looked by far the best to me. The I guess part was about them being a power as they weren't a favorite or anything coming in.

It's kind of crazy how hit and miss some of the powers have been so far. Obviously Spain is gone, Brazil hasn't looked good at all, same with Argentina, Italy not the best so far. The Dutch, Germany and I guess France are really the only top teams looking really good so far.

CONCACAF kicking some ass.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jun 20, 2014 -> 01:33 PM) God damn I'm going not going to last this. This will end up killing me. I hate being such a pessimist on this topic but don't let yourself get excited, man.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Jun 20, 2014 -> 09:40 AM) No it wouldn't be the cause. It would be that he would have torn the ligament again with whatever he did. However, because the bone was for whatever reason weaker than the ligament the force went to the bone. I have never seen or heard of anything like this. The only fractures from throwing I've heard of are humerus fractures where there is a tremendous amount of rotation torque. Gavin Floyd needs to drink some milk.

Well I wanted Cara and CT to win, that didnt work out.

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Jun 19, 2014 -> 03:53 PM) What kind of info are you looking for? You are staying close, so getting to the ballpark will be no problem. They just opened Ballpark Village this season, its big and popular, but not really my thing. There's a place called Flying Saucer about a block from the stadium that has a great beer selection and decent food. QUOTE (raBBit @ Jun 19, 2014 -> 04:36 PM) Well I know the know downtown could turn into a sketchy area pretty quickly and one of the girls I'm going with has a propensity to wander when she's drunk. Obviously we'll be keeping an eye on her but is it safe to say as long as we stay around the Hilton and Busch Stadium we shouldn't be near any potentially troublesome areas? Ya, as long as you're in the area of Busch, I wouldn't worry too much. I've been to Ballpark Village once and I absolutely loved it but obviously it depends on what you're into.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 19, 2014 -> 04:04 PM) As TheTruth05 said, it probably has to do with their teams. Ronaldo and Messi play on two of the most stacked club teams in the world. Their club teams are definitely better than their national teams. Ya that would basically be my guess.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 19, 2014 -> 03:36 PM) A lot of the superstars of this generation have been ineffective in the world cup. Messi and Ronaldo average around one goal a game in club play, but they have like 4 WC goals combined between the two of them. So what do we think the reason for that is? Suarez obviously not struggling so far.

Haha and there is Rooney!

Maybe he'll fall to 16!

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jun 19, 2014 -> 12:29 PM) I agree. Not sure if it's just nostalgia, but those colors really pop and work well together. Ya, I've never been a nostalgia guy but those colors are just awesome.

David Price could be a free agent after this season and I'd still do that deal. Bowden is on drugs if he thinks TB would do that.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Jun 18, 2014 -> 08:30 PM) I'm not holding my breath, but I don't see why not. I know if I were him I'd wanna play here. Because it won't happen, it just won't. I wonder how different things would be if basketball was played in the summer.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jun 18, 2014 -> 07:30 PM) Unless someone is looking to give us a near term long haul, what value do we get in moving Danks? Seems to me that he is producing at or above his current contract rate and we shouldn't be in a rush and he'll be an asset over the next few years as we become more competitive. I think he has more value to us than anyone else at the moment so I don't think moving him is the best of ideas.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jun 18, 2014 -> 06:57 PM) What is this website Soxtalk.com

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 18, 2014 -> 04:54 PM) Abuse power. I hearby ban the word "moist" I still want to know why every girl I know absolutely despises this word.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jun 18, 2014 -> 04:37 PM) I mean, I think that's everywhere. I hate the guy and enjoy watching him lose, but if he came to Chicago i'd be happy as a clam. Yup on all of this.
