I'm torn on trading Butler. Historically the return from trading superstars has been pretty s***ty, and you are looking at once again turning Chicago into the last place any FA is going to want to go. On the other hand, this team defines mediocrity f*** you Gar

I will be happy to be wrong about Logan. This trailer is awesome Logan Trailer #2

This thread is like a bunch of people standing outside the building where the World Series of Poker is happening, and people are complaining about Phil Hellmuths moves without even knowing what is happening inside

yea that all sounds like rich people doing whatever the f*** they want with their money and f*** everyone else

QUOTE (New Era on South Side @ Jan 17, 2017 -> 10:38 PM) Will anyone going to SoxFest go to a Q&A with RH and grill him? Beat him up a bit and see what he says about Quintana? The lack of rumors and disagreement over what to do with Quintana now and at the deadline is driving me crazy. Im sure he will reveal everything in this scenario

Can someone put the vouchers system in laymans terms for me? I have read that it has pretty much failed in every state it has been tried in, but I dont really understand the concept because every article i read skips right to "it failed and cost the state a lot of money"

I dont think i can recall seeing a candidate as unprepared as DeVos was yesterday. Not knowing the difference between proficiency and growth? Unaware of a federal law applying to the department she is nominated for? Refused to answer any questions directly, when she did provide answers, she wasnt answering what was asked. Good grief

QUOTE (raBBit @ Jan 17, 2017 -> 11:27 AM) Not that anyone cares, I thought it was ridiculous Streep used MMA as an example to rip on the idea of the country not being all inclusive/international or whatever. The three biggest stars in MMA are an Irish guy, an American girl who used to be homeless and a Canadian dude. That isnt how I interpreted what she was saying. right after she said MMA, and people started cheering, she said "those are not 'the arts'". I think her point was if you remove movies and music etc all you have is football and MMA, and that isnt everything we need(according to her). I thought it was a strange shot at MMA and Football for sure

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jan 14, 2017 -> 12:45 PM) Zelda and Mario both look incredible and appear to be catering to the hardcore fans. I wouldn't be surprised if these games end up being the best entries in their respective series. Little worried about the launch window lineup though. Zelda is a legit killer app and should consume a ton of time, but there isn't really much after that. I'm not sure what to make of 1, 2 Switch...would have made a lot more sense as a free pack in. Just doesn't seem like a game people will go out and buy on their own, not with a $50 price tag. And after that, you basically have Mario Kart Deluxe & Arms in April & May most likely. I'm guessing they have more games planned for summer, fall, & holiday, but those first few months will be pretty weak IMO. http://m.ign.com/wikis/nintendo-switch/Nin...h_Launch_Titles Launch is pretty thin so far, hopefully they change that with a surprise title in the next month and a half Right now Zelda, Bomberman R and Dragonquest of interest me the most though

Good luck with Sonny's health, Astros

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 16, 2017 -> 11:00 AM) I think the Chinese situation will be much easier to deal with than the European one. China will make some noise in the South China Sea soon, Trump will respond, but then North Korea will get a slight bit of prodding to do something to annoy the US and Trump won't be able to resist a d*ck measuring contest with an actual dictator. He'll either get distracted or he'll wind up right back where we are now - asking China to help deal with the North Korean mess since we have no leverage over them otherwise. There's a reason why the European project exists. Show it No, you show it You first No you first .....your hands are pretty small *ziiiiiiiiiiiiip* *laughter* he really did it! I told you if you said that he would show you!

QUOTE (Con te Giolito @ Jan 16, 2017 -> 11:41 AM) Well which of the two do you think can put the team on their back and win a title? Bats definitely has flashed that ability but at 36 I dont know how much he has left in the tank. Heyward was flat out benched in the playoffs, but he's young enough to turn it around and even if he doesnt he'll never been totally useless becuase his defensive skill set provides some value. Depends where my team is. If I'm one hitter away from thinking I can win it all give me Bautista and I'll worry about the money later, after I've got my ring. I mean, Bautista is fun and all but he has yet to put any team on his back and win a title. Heyward, for all of his offensive struggles, was invaluable defensively for the cubs. He wasn't really flat out benched either, he played all but one game

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Jan 16, 2017 -> 10:42 AM) Why are we going to war with China? Seems like a bad idea in my opinion. Didn't you hear? They hacked too

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jan 16, 2017 -> 08:36 AM) I guess. But Miller, Chapman and Betances are closer to elite. There's really no guarantee that Robertson, Holland or Jones will increase their value...and I have a feeling the White Sox will be outbid on Holland by a contender if he's at least 85-90% healthy. That said, there is no guarantee with Derek Holland as well, but can they get this Holland for roughly the same price? That's not the point at all. The point is the Sox are (supposed to be) collecting assets and turning them into more assets. You are saying that's a problem and that is silly. I'm not saying that Robertson Jones and Holland are the same as Betances Chapman and Miller in talent, im saying that the Yankees collected multiple good relievers and used those assets to get more very good assets for the future. And why do you keep counting Jones as a closer? His experience is limited at best

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jan 15, 2017 -> 11:18 PM) The problem with that is it's hard to market Robertson/Jones/Holland simultaneously as closers. Seems that one needs to be moved (Robertson or Jones) to clear the way...since presumably Burdi will be the man beginning in 2018, unless Nate Jones is somehow still around and they want Burdi to break into the majors as a set-up guy first. Not sure about the wisdom of doing that, since he's closed his entire collegiate career. Addison Reed basically took over the closer's spot as a rookie, as well. Santos had to earn his way there, but his background was different, as he started out as a first round draft pick SS with the DBacks. No, it's not a problem having multiple closers on a team at all. That netted the Yankees a boatload of prospects

Maybe Rousey and Punk can come in on a "UFC washouts" gimmick ?

QUOTE (Alpha Dog @ Jan 15, 2017 -> 07:57 AM) So he should just sit there and let a political hack who was famous 50 years ago belittle him and the Presidency? Get over it already. Lewis hasn't done anything since then, how long you gonna ride that? If Trump can question the presidency as much as he has, he should be able to turn the other cheek when it comes his way. Should McCain get over it when Trump questions his military service? Dude was a draft dodger. You are better than this Alpha, this is not ok. Nobody on either side of the aisle should "get over" the things being said and done right now

QUOTE (JUSTgottaBELIEVE @ Jan 14, 2017 -> 11:29 PM) Another playoff game with a passer rating below 90 and another win for Brady. That's now happened in 10 of his 23 career playoff wins. By comparison, only once have the Packers won a playoff game with Rodgers posting a passer rating below 90 (NFC championship vs the Bears). And people still consider Brady the better postseason performer because the Patriots have more wins in his tenure? You act as if you were told Rodgers sucks. Nobody ever said that.
