Dave Duncan joins White Sox pitching staff
QUOTE (Tony @ Feb 8, 2018 -> 06:44 PM) I sat about 14 rows up from the Sox dugout that game. I’ll always remember Reyes and his high socks. f*** that 2006 team. They had everything they needed to repeat. Except the stamina

Dave Duncan joins White Sox pitching staff
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Feb 8, 2018 -> 02:20 PM) I'm pretty sure he is the reason Hawk fired LaRussa. Hawk wasn't a big fan, and I do seem to recall something later on, but can't quite remember. I think it had something to do with that 2006 series when the Sox destroyed them before the break. I think Larussa and Duncan accused the Sox of stealing signals or something and Hawk said something

Am I wrong or wasnt there some beef between Duncan and Hawk a few years back?

2018 NFL off-season thread
QUOTE (TheTruth05 @ Feb 8, 2018 -> 07:17 AM) McDaniels is a scumbag and I'm glad I don't make the calls in Halas Hall because I liked him for the Bears at the start of the search. Also can't help but think this is Ballard's/Colts fault as well. Looks like they had ZERO plan B for McDaniels and agreements are nothing without a signature on the dotted line. If Ballard really had been in contact with McDaniels as much as he should have,he would have noticed the waivering and tried to plan/execute a plan B but he put all his eggs in one basket. Also yes i think it will be Toub because of the Ballard ties. It’s really hard for me to hang anything on the colts. McDaniels hired four assistants before he backed out

Cumulus Media trying to drop White Sox/Bulls from WLS
QUOTE (New Era on South Side @ Feb 8, 2018 -> 06:33 AM) So do I, but I don’t hear them talk about the White Sox consistently. Honestly, there isnt much to talk about consistently. The last two offseasons havent exactly been exciting in the respect of building up the major league team. The trades involving Eaton and Sale were talked about a lot last year but there wasnt much else to discuss. This offseason even more. Look at this PHT forum, all we do is speculate the future, we dont have much to talk about in the present because we know this season isnt gonna be great unless something truly unexpected happens. if the sox start winning, they will discuss it.

Altered Carbon is decent but very uneven and dragged down by a few really bad performances. A few episodes I really liked, and any time Matt Frewer was on screen

They talk about the Cubs more, but what do you expect, they are winning. I hear plenty of sox talk and I listen all day long while working

SuperBowl LII
QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Feb 6, 2018 -> 12:24 PM) That's what I thought. The people I was with thought it was good but I just assumed I was out of touch. Seemed like the songs were chaotically thrown together. The game was great. Brady Is the GOAT. After Seattle and Atlanta melting away against he Patriots , I liked that the Eagles won. Has there been any explanation as to why Butler was benched? a couple of things have come out. Rapaport saying he was sick, had a rough week of practice and had a minor team rule infraction which was believed to be curfew related. I believe Brandon Browner tweeted that he also went to a Rick Ross concert and got stoned and that caused the team infraction

STAR WARS Everything
I think of the ones you mentioned Plus Jabba, Boba Fett (to me) would be the biggest stretch. Apparently a lot of Hans “legends” storyline is being co-opted into this movie, and many other movies to come. Which I think is a smart move by Lucasfilm/Disney

STAR WARS Everything
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Feb 5, 2018 -> 03:41 PM) That's not how it seemed from Episode 4. In Episode 4 it was "Han my boy" from Jabba, at least in the scene that was edited out of the original. He was a regular smuggler for Jabba and then he got boarded and had to ditch a shipment, costing Jabba a lot. They were slightly hostile but that was Han too, always a little hostile but also willing to flatter. "I'll give you something a little extra for your troubles". Han then didn't pay him back for the lost shipment after episode 4, instead running away with the Rebels to Hoth. Han was still talking about going to pay Jabba back with the money he had at the start of Empire, but the evacuation, chase, and failure of the hyperdrive prevented that, so he got caught by Fett before he ever got around to paying Jabba. They seemed like they had a decent business relationship, at least for smugglers, at the start of ep 4. So you would agree that establishing a relationship with jabba prior to episode 4 would be telling Hans story?

STAR WARS Everything
QUOTE (Tony @ Feb 5, 2018 -> 03:33 PM) Like Rogue One, they are going to have to walk that fine line of too much cheap fan service and legit scenes that fit the story and we all want to see. Cautiously optimistic. I don’t think this is fan service, his bad history with Jabba got him frozen in Carbonite. I think it is just telling the story

QUOTE (Tony @ Feb 5, 2018 -> 02:12 PM) I’m going to geek out hard if any of Boba/Tarkin/Vader make small cameos, which all seem possible There is a part of the trailer that people think is set at Jabbas palace

I like the blade runner world of Altered Carbon, and so far the mystery has me intrigued. There is a lot going on and a lot of different terminology to absorb to understand what they are talking about sometimes, but I’m hooked

SuperBowl LII
QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Feb 4, 2018 -> 10:37 PM) So you bench arguably your top cornerback as a coach's decision, then proceed to give up 41 points and lose. Belichik will have to answer that one in the future. What a game though. Butler was pretty mad
