QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jan 20, 2014 -> 08:35 PM) He has been medically cleared from his concussion last week. Ya I saw that. I meant along the lines that I think they're saving him as a "surprise" entrant that blows the roof off the stadium. All the Wyatt's destroy him after their match, kayfabe wise he's just done then music hits during the the rumble and the crowd explodes. That said, if they do that he better win cause you take the chance of the crowd s***ting on Batista if Bryan is in the rumble and doesn't win.

Anyone else find it bizarre how they're not saying whether Bryan is or isn't in the Rumble?

Ok I'm bored of Batista already.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jan 20, 2014 -> 06:05 PM) I think Simmons' piece is very-well done and I agree with just about all of it. Christina Kahrl's piece, on the other hand, is a bit ridiculous. I'm trying to think about the relationship between the fact that Vanderbilt was a transgender person and the fact that that's also what threw Caleb Hannan off her scent. I find them almost inseparable and therefore necessary to the story. I said as much Saturday. Do we, as a society, have a ways to go when it comes to accepting and learning to properly respect transgender people? Yes, absolutely. I think about the progress made with gay and lesbian folks and think about that same progress when it comes to transgender people. On the other hand, this trend we also seem to have as a society to celebrate faux outrage and morality dick-measuring contests is also quite bothersome. We're all so quick to trip over each other in an attempt to see who can be the most morally or politically correct Mother Theresa, and that usually happens shortly after the first person stands up and begins imparting blame (as we saw in this case). Frankly, if it took 56 hours for someone to do so, and then turned into an all-out cascade of criticism, I find that pretty compelling evidence. I shudder to think we may enter an age in publishing where a writer can't report an interesting story without fear of somehow offending someone for something. I love this post.

Great article.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jan 20, 2014 -> 04:43 PM) Richard Sherman used PEDs - he claimed it was adderall, but the NFL drug policy prevents the NFL from specifying the offending substance, triggering every player to say they used adderall since it doesn't strike people like steroids do. The NFL can't correct them Nah he claimed he wasn't taking adderall, it was widely reported that was what he tested positive for.

At this point I'm not moving Quintana or Johnson whether we land Tanaka or we don't but that's just me.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jan 20, 2014 -> 11:44 AM) Nothing's going to happen today. I mean, at 11:45 AM CST, it's currently 2:45 AM JST. Tanaka is SLEEPING. You don't know that.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 20, 2014 -> 11:35 AM) I cant wait until New York has an absolute s*** weather superbowl. Lets get a a few feet of snow followed by negative temps I'm sure Seattle would love that.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 20, 2014 -> 11:20 AM) NOT SURE IF SERIOUS Haha I'm serious. Big fan of her.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 20, 2014 -> 11:10 AM) holy s*** Alexandra Daddario im in love. How far you have come from Percy Jackson I AGREE. You happy now?

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Jan 20, 2014 -> 11:04 AM) I would love douchebag Sherman playing for my Bears... Everybody would, even the people that really hate him wont deny that. The guy is arguably the best cover corner in the game, he's a model citizen off the field(yes I know...the adderall thing), nobody would turn him down because he talks trash.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 20, 2014 -> 10:29 AM) Sherman explains himself Thug for sure.

It is indisputable that Steve Kerr is better than LeBron though.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jan 20, 2014 -> 10:02 AM) Compare Jameis Winston and Richard Sherman's reactions. Winston had a rather violent and emotional postgame speech as a redshirt freshman in college. Nobody (other than Dee Dee McCarron) had any sort of negative reaction to that speech. Winston's speech actually annoyed the hell out of me. And I disagree, Twitter blew up after Winston as well.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 19, 2014 -> 09:39 PM) I understand people don't like Sherman, but I love the guy. He is the perfect heel, he has a crazy mouth and he can back it up with his play. Must be the wrestling fan in us but I completely agree.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jan 19, 2014 -> 09:05 PM) RichardSherman4life. That s*** was hilarious. His emotions took over and I love it. Agreed.
