QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 20, 2017 -> 02:57 PM) So Sunday got interesting. Meningitis going around. Bray and Roman out. AJ Styles vs Demon Angle returns to ring to replace Roman. Bo Dallas been sick as well. Yes, but how does this affect the house show I'm going to tonight?

QUOTE (Tony @ Oct 19, 2017 -> 11:05 PM) They have gone to 3 straight LCS, have 1 WS and the window is still wide open. They have a reason to be optimistic. Definitely. I hated to see that happen to Q tonight, I'd also be lying if I said I wasn't over the Cubs at this point. I was legit happy for a lot of my friends last year when they won it but Fornelli said it pretty well on twitter tonight, they're a juggernaut now and they can just go away.

QUOTE (bmags @ Oct 17, 2017 -> 04:13 PM) Lyle Mouton actually. Makes sense. I'm on board.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Oct 17, 2017 -> 02:49 PM) Just call them the New Jersey something or others. Hockey has 3 teams in the NYC area, I'm sure baseball could do the same. What's the mascot look like for a "something or others" ?

I'd be shocked if Kopech isn't up by mid season and I'm guessing Eloy is up before September as well. Hansen I can definitely see being a September call up too.

I mean, Nakamura is literally violence and Styles is the most over thing on the roster right now probably so I don't think that's a fair point at all. There's a variety of reasons people don't like the product right now and I think a lot of the reasons are valid. I certainly don't love it at the moment but I find my reasons to enjoy it because I still love pro wrestling in basically every form. The Shield and KO/Sami stuff are perfect examples. I don't think how they got here makes any sense and is completely stupid but whatever, I'm happy they got there. As for The BC stuff, I'm sure this little battle between them and the E isn't going away anytime soon. Reigns fired off shots at them last week so Cody hit him back and honestly both ways that's fine. The Bucks and Cody and Omega for that matter can fight this fight with them because they don't need the E. The Bucks especially are pretty much marketing geniuses when it comes to their own brand and they know what they're doing with this kind of stuff.

Wow. RIP.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Oct 12, 2017 -> 11:42 AM) ^^^ Love that dude on and off the court. This needs to be said again. Not sure I love a player in sports more than this dude right now.

I've never been a Yankees hater so I don't care that the Sox helped them out. That said, that was the one trade Rick has made in the last year and half that seemed a bit light to me from the beginning. Hopefully Blake takes a huge step forward in his development next year.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Oct 12, 2017 -> 07:37 AM) Please stay healthy, Joel Embiid. ^^^ Love that dude on and off the court.

That epic ab + the lazy ass defense by Cleveland is one way to(possibly) put the final nail in the Indians coffin.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 11, 2017 -> 08:26 AM) My parents told me Santa Claus was real too. Fake news Why'd I have a feeling you'd be the first response to this thread?

So disappointing. The World Cup is seriously one of my favorite sporting events and it really kills it for me to not have the US in it.

QUOTE (Jack Parkman @ Oct 10, 2017 -> 03:06 PM) When I see Trubisky, I see a mobile Chad Pennington. I don't think he has the arm to make all of the throws. Super accurate, but I don't see the zip on his passes. Eventually this will get exposed. I think Loggains doesn't go deep and stretch the field because he knows that none of his guys have the arm to do it. Dude what? I'm not a Bears fan and I really couldn't care less if Mitch is great or awful but this is one out there comparison.

QUOTE (maxjusttyped @ Oct 9, 2017 -> 04:40 PM) It's impossible to know for sure, but I would be very surprised if there's a single front office still using W/L record to evaluate pitchers. As an evaluation tool I'd be shocked if there's any that do.

Just like the weird Shield reboot, if we're rolling with the Sami-KO story I'm going to f***in mark out no matter what. They got me tonight even though I thought Sami would be involved somehow. Love it. Besides that, I think I've said it here multiple times, I'm not convinced that Jinder isn't the worst pro wrestler under the WWE umbrella. He's literally made Nak boring. Tha'ts super impressive.

QUOTE (Wanne @ Oct 8, 2017 -> 01:27 AM) Cam Newton said what most guys actually think...then everyone gasps in PC accordance. Honestly...all these networks have been doing lately is trying to cram women in their broadcasts down your throat in the name of equality. Honestly...no big whoop...but sometimes the stuff that comes out of some of these women's mouths trying to be "jocky" is actually kind of funny. Newton is young kid...bfd. I had a problem when he acted like a cry baby after the Super Bowl...but he'll learn. But honestly...the dude takes more unnecessary shots that don't get called more than any QB I've seen. If Sharon Rodgers got hit like he did...they'd call a congressional hearing. I do find his presser outfits pretty comical...but overall...I don't sweat Cam Newton. Well this is absolutely horse s***.

HEADS!!

QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 6, 2017 -> 04:10 PM) Can't stand that guy. He hates you too.

This might surprise some of you guys but Rongey's radio show down here is really good. I enjoy the hell out of it.

Kopech would have 6 K's and 0 baserunners allowed so far.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Oct 5, 2017 -> 09:48 AM) I think he's a much better hitter than he showed this year. Definitely agree. This upcoming year will be a big year in his development.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Oct 2, 2017 -> 11:28 AM) I told you I failed spelling. I was especially poor on the exam for QB names. I only called you out on this because you were on a roll with the spelling errors haha. Wouldn't have even crossed my mind otherwise.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Oct 4, 2017 -> 01:50 PM) At the time of the trade, I personally didn't read one thing how Fernando Tatis Jr. was going to make Rick Hahn rue the day he made this trade. I think James Shields' performance did that. There were people out there that were plenty upset about Tatis, thinking he might be a pretty prospect, I certainly wasn't one of them. And I don't agree with Greensox on anything but I think it's completely fair to say that the Sox didn't know what they had in Tatis. I mean, they clearly didn't.

QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Oct 3, 2017 -> 06:17 PM) If Stanton was a FA in 2019 with Bryce/Machado class, would you want the Sox to give 10/285m to a 29 year old corner outfielder? I'd rather offer that same deal to a 25 year old Machado Machado is probably going to get a good deal more than that.
