QUOTE (Chi Town Sox @ Feb 23, 2011 -> 04:12 PM) Because of his game or his attitude? I think his attitude would be OK, he would be joining a Finals contender alongside one of the best players in the game now. His game would be great for what the Bulls need IMO Both to be honest. I don't want anyone taking possessions away from Rose and Mayo would do just that. Yes, he does have some upside, I'm certainly not going to argue that(that'd be the one reason I wouldn't mind trading for him) but at this point he might be more of a nuisance than anything else.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Feb 23, 2011 -> 04:45 PM) Heh. Dunn is on that top 10 list 3 times. COUNTRY STRONG. Sorry, thought I'd beat Hawk to the punch.

I'm very conflicted on whether I want Mayo on this team. I know I don't want to move Taj or Omer for Courtney Lee though.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Feb 22, 2011 -> 05:51 PM) 2nd round pick, supposedly. This works for me. It might set something else up or open things up for a bigger deal. Hopefully it's setting up something, otherwise it just seems pointless to dump him for what is pretty much nothing.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Feb 21, 2011 -> 10:11 PM) Well in the interest of getting some more traffic to this thread and perhaps getting a pinned one, I'll write a 30 and 60 min workout of the month based on some of the feedback above. I just made it the official work out thread for now. We'll just use this for now and if we keep getting a lot of traffic, we can do something else if necessary. And ya, write up a work out of the month, that's a good idea. The more feedback/work out ideas anyone can give the better since we obviously have a variety of people with different fitness levels who read this. On an actual work out note, I think I'm going to start doing some more high intensity stuff to up my explosiveness when it comes to sports a bit. I'm starting to play in a lot of different sports leagues again and I want to be at the top of my game.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Feb 22, 2011 -> 12:15 AM) It seems somewhat likely that the Knicks would be the Bulls' opponent in the first round. The Knicks can't get to the top 5. Ya the Knicks aren't catching the Hawks, but the Bulls could catch the Heat or Celtics.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Feb 22, 2011 -> 12:08 AM) Yeah, you do this deal every time if you're the Knicks. I agree buuuut all it did for this year is make them the 5th best team in the East instead of the 6th. That being said, they're obviously much more dangerous going forward now.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Feb 20, 2011 -> 09:47 PM) Wade could be hurt. One of the sportscenter anchors said it best when he said that it appears that Wade almost gets hurt in every game. That asshole is always limping around. Surprised they didn't have to roll him out of the arena on a wheelchair.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Feb 20, 2011 -> 10:48 PM) Though I hate him, LeBron was robbed of the All-Star game MVP award. What now? Kobe deserved it. LeBron certainly had a great game but you can't say he was robbed of anything when the winner of the award had 37 and 14.

He's a good baseball player for my favorite baseball team.

QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 20, 2011 -> 09:37 PM) So, um, eh, hmmmm, any guys on here ever get a pedicure? After years of basketball abuse, I think I could use one. Not gonna lie, kind of embarassed cuz I stereotype it as something women do. Gonna go tanning and put your make up on afterwards?

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Feb 20, 2011 -> 08:15 PM) You say this all the time. Just because the supposed strength of the team underachieved doesn't mean you can't compensate in other areas. Kotsay was a joke. Everybody knew it before the season. He reinforced that with his pathetic performance. Thing is I'm not mad at him. That was all Ozzie and KW. Ya, this.

Loved the guy and wish him nothing but the best in his life after baseball.

Sale has better pure stuff than Prior did and it's not that close imo. Prior had very good stuff but it wasn't completely overwhelming like Stras has or even Chris. What made him so damn special was that he was able to locate that very good stuff pretty much wherever he wanted to.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Feb 20, 2011 -> 03:03 PM) Normally I wouldn't be interested because polls are irrelevant in basketball (heck of a concept lol), but all the top four teams lost this week. Who is your new No. 1? Clearly none of the top five or so aren't playing especially well because 4 of them lost this week and Duke is probably just on par with Ohio State, Texas and Kansas. I think Texas is the best team in the country but I'd say Kansas deserves to be ranked 1 at this point.

QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Feb 19, 2011 -> 07:22 AM) I think the AL Central has and will continue to figure him out. You can only fool people with junk for so long. Yes, after a whole decade of pitching, the AL Central will finally figure him out, couldn't agree more.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Feb 13, 2011 -> 04:22 PM) I can't tell you how many times I've gotten myself in a lot of trouble because of drunk texting. It's bad news. Yeup.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 19, 2011 -> 07:40 AM) Buehrle is a sort of Pujols situation for us. We know if we extend him, we will probably be paying him for more than he is worth at the end of his contract. Do the Sox owe him that? Do the Sox have to do it to appease their fanbase? Mark Buehrle at this point is probably my favorite athlete of all time but the Sox owe him nothing and if he wants too much money than you have to let him walk.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Feb 19, 2011 -> 12:59 AM) His ability to eliminate the opponents' running game somewhat negates his mediocre peripherals. And he's certainly not a $14 million dollar a year pitcher. But it would be a sad, sad day were Mark to go elsewhere. Who gives a hoot about his peripherals? We know what we're getting from him every year, he's a guy that his secondary stats mean absolutely nothing.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Feb 18, 2011 -> 12:58 PM) And you have no idea that this won't delay his progress as a starting pitcher either. No, neither of us know if this will help or hinder his development as a starter but I do know that this is the best situation for our team this year so it makes the most sense by far.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Feb 17, 2011 -> 02:48 PM) Do you have any idea how bad CQ was in RF? Smallz from the Sandlot wouldn't have been any worse. Unless you're prime Manny Ramirez with the bat, you have negative value overall when you're that horrendous defensively. Don't hate on Smallz.

4 1st round picks, yeesh.

Melo to the Nets if he agrees to an extension.

QUOTE (hi8is @ Feb 18, 2011 -> 10:40 AM) me no get. "Rub some dirt on it."

So glad the NCAA expanded the tournament with the mass amount of quality teams sitting on the bubble this year.
