QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Dec 27, 2005 -> 04:09 AM) no it won't. King Kong or Crash .......Hustle & Flow. Michelle Williams has a great chance for Best Supporting Actress. ahhh, more confident picks by WSJ, I cannot wait to see the Oscar thread. Although WSJ probably wont make much of an appearance after the Oscars are presented. (shhhhh, WSJ doesnt like to admit he is wrong)

There, how is that.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Dec 27, 2005 -> 02:07 AM) You tell me a shooting guard Ben Gordon could ever guard. Maybe Corey Benjamin. Gordon has no defensive tools. I will be happy if/when the Bulls deal his sorry ass. I had this argument with Nite a week or so ago about Gordon. Its not worth the effort. Nite is willing to overlook the quadruple pump no look pass to the center of the key 5 times a night if Ben can put in 20 points. And Nite, I would like you to explain to me what Ben Gordon knows about defensive positioning. Ben is always slapping, getting cheap fouls because people are blowing past him, he doesnt know how to go under or over screens, and he loses his man, ALOT. Also, if he knows a thing or two about defensive positioning, you would think he would draw an offensive foul or two. I cannot remember him ever drawing an offensive foul. The guy can shoot, no doubt. But his other "tools" are either in the box, or were never there to begin with. In regards to the Thread Title: If the Bulls are looking to salvage the season, which is very possible, they are going to have to move the deadweight on their necks called Tim Thomas. Most likely they are going to have to package a draft pick to get something that they need, but this is something that needs to be done. That asshat is sitting at home laughing because he doesnt have to do anything to be earning 14 million dollars this year, his bench spot could be filled with a big PF or C through a trade. I know Paxson has been trying for Al Harrington for years, and that could be a possibility, I have also read that Ruben Patterson, Chris Wilcox, Melvin Ely, Stromile Swift, Desmond Mason, and Nick Collison may be available. many possibilities. If the Bulls choose to let this year go, then they still need to get something for Tim Thomas. But in regards to the 6'8" "Ben Gordon" named Adam Morrison, the Bulls could use a straight up shooter like him, and still get another great pick with their other 1st round draft pick. I know another 6'8" spot up shooter who is quite a threat who has "40 year old legs", his name is Kyle Korver. He is still pretty damn good. I had a feeling this year would be like this, the Bulls are kind of wandering and not making any progress. True, they arent regressing very much(even though they are slightly regressing), but they took a large chunk of offense out last year, and Sweetney hasnt been able to get up to where Eddy had finally gotten last year. It will take time, but i still think this team has a very solid core that will only get better.

QUOTE(Punch and Judy Garland @ Dec 26, 2005 -> 11:55 PM) That's not a bad thing I guess. An extra half hour in the bullpen sports bar sounds ok! or another half hour of waiting for the game to come on at home :sleep

Boston has to be skidding their undies right now. Most of Boston Gammons moves centered around trading for Glaus, i wonder what he thinks of another AL East team trading for him.

QUOTE(redandwhite @ Dec 26, 2005 -> 07:12 PM) it's amazing how sought after the garlands, clements, wells, etc. will now become. Who wants Clement? The only thing I have heard is that Boston wants to get rid of him.

QUOTE(C_LEE45 @ Dec 26, 2005 -> 08:02 PM) you really dont have to read it and reply, The search function is there for a reason.

you need your own place. You will appreciate your parents and they will appreciate you much more.

is this thread really happening? Is this like a some sort of server "echo" in which whatever topic has been discussed ad nauseum is automatically regurgiated in a new and more annoying way?

QUOTE(WinninUgly @ Dec 26, 2005 -> 03:43 PM) It is highly unlikely that he would come back, but I guess you never know. If Anderson tanks and the Sox go looking for a Veteran Outfielder, then maybe. He could come back in Free Agency, but I don't see him coming back with the other guys waiting in the wings. He probably has as much of a chance coming back as Frank does. haha. Remember how many times Alomar and Everett, and even Sandy Alomar Jr came back? If Kenny likes you, there are no prospects too large

QUOTE(elrockinMT @ Dec 26, 2005 -> 11:59 AM) The real question though is why would anyone want to give up the prospects mentioned for a broken down pitcher? Wells might have one or two years left max and not be anywhere near the 15 game wins you might want or need out of him. Havent people been saying the same thing about Wells for the past 7 years? Despite his weight and bacl problems, the only team that Wells screwed over for health reasons has been our beloved. He rehabbed after that season and really has been pretty consistent since.

QUOTE(SnB @ Dec 26, 2005 -> 12:41 PM) I got the tribune book last night and it's my favorite of the books/magazines so far. There are some great pics in there, no doubt. Konerko's homerun againt Lackey is by far my favorite pic. Everyone in the stadium is still focused on Konerko and he is watching the ball take off, you can even see the laces on the ball.

This is what I wrote Short. Sweet. To the Point.

This is hilarious. WSJ waits out my thread until it gets closed so he doesnt have to admit that Grossman is better, then he creates this thread. And I have to think that he created this thread in the hopes that Grossman would have a horrible day yesterday so he could come in here pointing fingers today. Too funny. "Probably one of the best rookie QB's of all time." This would be true. If WSJ man-love was what we were basing it on.

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Dec 23, 2005 -> 10:00 AM) Bruce Levine is now reporting that the Cubs' offer seems to have been narrowed to Mark Prior, Rich Hill, and possibly Corey Patterson for Miguel Tejada and Erik Bedard pending Peter Angelos's approval. That northside "best ever" rotation is going to be alot less formidable if this trade goes through

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Dec 22, 2005 -> 02:09 PM) Waiting to the trade deadline only limits your trading partners. Remember last year, no one made big trades, pretty much everyone stood pat. Right now everyone outside of a few teams feel that they are x amount of moves away. The Dodgers have to feel that they are close, if we can get the relievers that are being talked about, you get them. Our bullpen would be good to go for a long time not just this year. I have to agree with this. Parity last year made sure everyone was in the race, and also ensured that noone wanted to make a trade because they were afraid of making the competition better. Of course, its kind of nice for once to not see the good get better because another marginal team gave up and decided to go younger.

QUOTE(JimH @ Dec 22, 2005 -> 02:04 PM) Garland is in line for a huge arbitration award. The White Sox are apparantly well over budget as it stands right now. What you'd rather do has no bearing whatsoever. I just dont understand why you want to trade Garland so bad and why you think he wont get any better? There is noone in the major leagues that the White Sox could trade with and possibly get better. Its impossible. I have not been able to reach a conclusion that states otherwise. Stats prove that you cannot trade a SP of Jon Garlands calibur and recieve equal value in return.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Dec 22, 2005 -> 01:36 PM) If MLB is McDonalds, then Timo was the Hamburgler. That guy was a thief.

Here comes another "why does everyone want to trade Garland?" thread again.

My Dad still has all of the "First Christmas" ornaments for me and my brother, and all of these old school ornaments from growing up. I just like all of them for nostalgic purposes. None of them are really great, just cool that they are still around.
