QUOTE (TitoMB @ Jan 20, 2014 -> 04:52 PM) But seriously, I just read through the last 20 pages. Y'all need to give up on Twitter. That s*** is 100% speculation, all the time. The Sox feel confident, but so does every sales guy before they get the bad news.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jan 20, 2014 -> 03:43 PM) As somebody else already mentioned, the stadium doesn't have the minimum capacity nor is there room for temporary seats to get it there (like they did in Indy). Neither the city nor the Bears have ever shown any interest in having a SB in Chicago. Indy is the closest you're ever going to get. We have the smallest stadium in the NFL, its probably last on the list for any major event. Now, Ohio Stadium is another thing....

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jan 20, 2014 -> 04:47 PM) Right, I was mostly pointing out that Renck having this info is a stretch and he's just looking for hits. I've been saying this exact thing all along. Teams report they are "going to bid a bazillion dollars" so teams up their bids, while others say "we're out of it" in the event that other teams will decrease their bids which increases opportunity. Being first is more important than being right.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jan 20, 2014 -> 04:44 PM) "among those" Meaning there could be more. Just so you know, I'm pointing out the ambiguity in the tweet itself, not criticizing you. I appreciate the update. Not sure why Troy Renck - a beat writer for the Rockies - would have this scoop, but it's interesting. Cotillo's stuff a put a little more faith in. Because he's guessing. Also negotiation becomes a lot more advantageous when people get desperate. Agent finds an assistant, leaks info to second tier reporters, they leak it, and so on. Easy to drive up the price.

LOL. Either everyone but one person is wrong or everyone reporting this stuff is just guessing. You pick. And does anyone think "White sox" when someone says "Chicago put up a big offer?" Maybe thats their problem.

Possibly buckeye vs buckeye showdown. KBD vs VJ King

QUOTE (SleepyWhiteSox @ Jan 20, 2014 -> 04:30 PM) He isn't much of a banger and did most of his damage in the open court and when not boxed out on the offensive glass. But yeah, despite the double and sometimes triple teams, Cliff took it to them down low, especially in the fourth. Outside of getting a lil winded in the first, he was a beast and just took over to lead them to the win the fourth. Nice Im going to rewatch. I love watching Russell play.

Did Cliff go right at Simmons?

QUOTE (SleepyWhiteSox @ Jan 20, 2014 -> 04:16 PM) Yup. Cliff is just a monster. Great win for Curie over the number one team with like 27 D1 kids. Cliff was an absolute beast in the 4th to lead that comeback. Damn, sorry I missed it, I was driving back from Mil. HUGE win.

Oh its over, wow and Montverde lost. Wow. They are stacked with D1 players.

QUOTE (SleepyWhiteSox @ Jan 20, 2014 -> 02:42 PM) Watch Big Cliff on espnu vs future Buckeye D'Angelo Russell's team. At least thats what I saw on the schedule. Are they not playing Montverde?

QUOTE (Paulstar @ Jan 20, 2014 -> 12:40 AM) Show me a team that isn't "classy" and I'll show you a good team. Just in the NFL or all of football? The Lions are pieces of s*** and they were so bad they canned their coach.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Jan 20, 2014 -> 03:20 AM) Haha, I saw that. That was hilarious. Roenick made a good point though, Vancouver should have just started their 1st line and just took it to them and scored. You don't have to fight them. Let them get the penalty and score on their ass. But a line fight is always highly entertaining, so it's hard to be mad about it. Right, Torts is an idiot and the opposing coach is a p****. Both showed what can be fixed in the NHL. There was no honor in what they did.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Jan 19, 2014 -> 09:17 PM) Let Sherman be Sherman. Right, on PEDs.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Jan 19, 2014 -> 09:11 PM) CRABTREEEEEEEE ARRRGGGGH! =) I'm guessing the NFL will be testing that guys pee tomorrow. Roid rage.

Sf got screwed but had it's chances and Kap threw two picks.

Sf getting screwed by no calls.

In what world is shoulder to shoulder a penalty?

Harris vs Ullis last night.

Torts is an idiot.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 19, 2014 -> 07:38 AM) Rock, I know it's a couple of weeks away, but would Thad put Craft on Nik off the ball or keep him on Walton? Smith/Thompson/Scott in that order.

QUOTE (Baron @ Jan 18, 2014 -> 08:01 PM) I must say....never thought this team would get this far in the negotiations....impressive offseason. The information the last month or so has been that they are seriously interested.

Easy guys, that's not really a great performance.

Great game.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 18, 2014 -> 05:54 PM) Best half of bball this season for Michigan yet just up 5. Ugh Lookin good now.
