QUOTE (Brian @ Aug 22, 2013 -> 11:19 PM) Eh, It's easy to find out. Andy is the biggest jellyfish in the history of the show. He wants to float. Ya I know but they were teasing all week that a juror gets back in on Thursday, I figured they'd actually show it, I thought it was kind of weak sauce.

You can't give overwhelming credit to one man for the World Series but you can to 4 who with their powers combined became the most feared group in the history of baseball...GROUP 4!

QUOTE (scs787 @ Aug 22, 2013 -> 07:29 PM) No love for the Dexter Pittman signing? He's lost a lot of weight, and he's 6-11" with a 7'6" wingspan....Thibs'll fix em He's been "losing a lot of weight" since his Freshman year at Texas.

I'm having a really tough time deciding on this trade cause I have no clue how to value draft picks. I got offered a 3rd and 7th rounder for my 4th and 5th rounders. So I'd be getting 24 and 64 overall for 32 and 49 overall. I also have 3 keepers...Skittles as a 6th rounder, Tony G as a 10th rounder and James Jones as an 11th. What do you guys think?

Pretty weak of big brother to not show the juror member going back in.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Aug 22, 2013 -> 12:53 PM) That about sums it up. He barely touched the court last year, he played a lot more under Weber 2 years ago ("a lot more" relative to last year), still not very much at all. Just a big body to have in there and help with the foul situation etc. Well that's still an improvement over what we have! But ya, I figured he wasn't much.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Aug 18, 2013 -> 07:21 PM) For the SIU fans, Ibby Djimde is transferring from Illinois to SIU. I don't think he is even a valley level player but I'll be interested to see how he does there. Was going to ask if any of you guys had any information on him. Not much to get excited about than?

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 22, 2013 -> 10:19 AM) Im just biding my time until Agents of SHIELD starts. When does that start? I'm looking forward to that one as well.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 21, 2013 -> 06:40 AM) The Challenge is good. The Challenge is great. Woo. I really love that show now, didn't think that would ever happen. I feel like I've joined a cult.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Aug 21, 2013 -> 10:54 AM) Glorious Fireball, you do me so good Oh, there was one point this summer where I got so inebriated that I actually turned alcohol down. I was offered a pull of fireball or to slap the bag and I said "no." I also do not remember this occasion and upchucked hotdogs about 6 hours later. That's just unacceptable. I've had an odd combination this summer as I was unemployed for a few months which left me unable to go out as much as I usually do. On the other hand I also destroyed the world for the whole week of the 4th and was also in NOLA for 4 days which was the craziest time of my life.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 19, 2013 -> 09:43 PM) In my mind i don't think Orton is deserving of a title run, but I think this persona works well for him. I thought he had his best run as the cocky, slightly out of control young menber of Evolution. Running with the Mcmahons should create the same effect. I was sick of the Viper crap anyways lol He sucks as a face, he's good as a heel though. Im not Ortons biggest fan but this whole set up makes a ton of sense to me.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Aug 18, 2013 -> 09:47 PM) all of you guys sucked this summer. I keep forgetting to drink and post, I apologize.

QUOTE (Jake @ Aug 19, 2013 -> 04:50 PM) Most guys like Dunn are encouraged to not try to hit through the shift by their coaching staffs This. It's really not that hard to understand, people just want to find a new way to bash Dunn.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Aug 19, 2013 -> 08:53 PM) ....Or not. Am I only one that thinks those Ryback segments are pretty weak? However it would be cool if they used one of those segments to debut a small guy like Generico. Ryback just sucks, he does nothing well. I just got home so I've just seen Punk but from what I've read it looks like this corporate storyline could be pretty fun.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Aug 19, 2013 -> 05:59 PM) W/L record for a pitcher is pointless, it's amazing how many people still use it as a important metric. Chris Sale has been awful this year, I don't know how you can dispute that.

QUOTE (TRU @ Aug 18, 2013 -> 09:56 PM) It just makes more sense to have Bryan chasing the title while Cena gets his elbow fixed.. Although I very much enjoyed Cena losing clean.. Ya I like Bryan as much as anyone but this made a lot of sense. The most over guys by far(cena, punk, Bryan, Orton) were all faces, you needed a big heel turn and this made sense. Anywho I thought that was a great ppv. Punk-lesnar was fantastic, Bryan-cena was very good and Christian-del rio delivered as well.

QUOTE (Brian @ Aug 18, 2013 -> 05:16 PM) Ordering tonight. 2nd biggest show of the year and you have no Orton match, although he could cash in. No Ryback, no Shield except pre show. No IC title match, and 2 diva matches. The top 2 matches and Sandow-Rhodes is enough for me to watch, pretty excited about the event. As for the Shield, I'm sure they'll end up facing Henry and Show.

Sale is going to throw a perfecto tonight. Mark it down.

Should be a solid piece to our bullpen next season.

QUOTE (Palehosefan @ Aug 16, 2013 -> 12:31 PM) Had to laugh, 100 K's to 9 BB's. 9 walks in almost 460 plate appearances, that's some serious swinging. Holy crap, that's just impressive.

QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Aug 17, 2013 -> 11:49 AM) I agree with the lefties idea but do you really think the Sox will go into the season with Rienzo and Johnson both in the rotation? I think they would if they get the right deal for Q or Hector. Trading Danks is going to be pretty hard to do and it probably makes more sense to hold into him. That being said, I'd say it's pretty likely we go into next season with the 4 lefties as I don't think we'll get enough value back for Q or Hector that makes them worth trading and I'm pretty sure Danks isn't going anywhere.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Aug 15, 2013 -> 02:03 PM) It's tough for me now. I don't want them to win. I want the 3rd pick in June minimum. They can't f*** up this fantastic opportunity by falling down to the 5-8 range draft pick wise. Ideally, Garcia and Beckham will do well, Dunn will hit bombs, Starting pitchers pitch well, and then Axelrod blows the game. That's my ideal scenario right now. God that sounds horrible. QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 15, 2013 -> 02:15 PM) Ha, we are in 100% agreement. I would add Phegley and Viciedo to the group I hope succeeds in a game. I find myself rooting hard for the Marlins and Astros of late as well. Yup.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Aug 16, 2013 -> 08:13 PM) Man, Q and/or Santiago really need to become more efficient. Having those 2 in the rotation is gonna be really taxing on the pen. I'm all for trading one of em this offseason. They're both still really young, that is definitely something that can be improved upon. I think we'd all be on board for trading one if we're going to be getting a young, middle of the order hitter back but I'm not trading either for less than that.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Aug 2, 2013 -> 12:28 PM) Yup. There are some application's that are frustrating as hell. Anywho, I got a 2nd interview on Monday for a job that I've wanted for a couple of years now. Only thing is that it'd require me to move to Milwaukee but at the moment it's pretty much the perfect job for me. Hopefully I don't f*** it up! Well I got it Guest I'm going to be a cheese head

Well I'm off to New Orleans with 12 of the craziest people I know, if you never hear from me again, you know why.
