QUOTE (JUSTgottaBELIEVE @ Apr 8, 2016 -> 03:16 PM) It's a huge difference. Many pitchers have successfully returned from year ending injuries. Why are people here telling me what I should or should not hope for? Am I not entitled to my own opinion? Did I do something illegal? are you being arrested? Are you being censored? Or are we putting our opinions here as well?

QUOTE (JUSTgottaBELIEVE @ Apr 8, 2016 -> 03:05 PM) It's not like I'm sending death threats or hoping the guy has a life threatening or career ending injury. Good lord. Arrieta missing the rest of the season would bring me more joy than seeing him pitch the Cubs to the World Series. So no I really don't see much of a problem hoping he gets injured this year. I also think he's cocky and overly hyped because of the team he plays for. Yes he's had a great run here but let's see him do it for another 3 or 4 years before he starts acting like he's God's gift to pitching (which the Chicago media already thinks). I also think the guy is using PEDs but I won't even start a debate about that topic because I know many will strongly disagree. Wishing for a year ending injury isnt really a far leap from wishing for a career ending injury. It really isnt cool to wish injury on anyone, you should just hope they suck if the Cubs bother you that much.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Apr 8, 2016 -> 02:20 PM) Tarp still on field it's absolutely miserable here. On the other sidr, I'm not sure I've seen so many people at the park. It's mobbed here. everyone wants those snow hats

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Apr 8, 2016 -> 12:13 PM) I'll say this much, I'd have been thrilled if the Bulls brought in Jerry. He's got a good track record for running strong organizations. I've actually sat next to him at a restaurant before, seemed like a super nice guy based upon me and my dad eavesdropping on his whole conversation (he was telling stories about managers he had fired with the Dbacks, different moves with the Suns). Super interesting stuff, hence why we couldn't not listen. He even apologized to us for being so loud and we said, no please take louder, this is great, haha. They are bringing in Bryan to be GM, not Jerry. Jerry is president of Basketball ops. Nepotism And I disagree that Hinkie drafted BPA with Embiid. his injury issues weren't a secret and everything people said has come home to roost

is the game cancelled

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 8, 2016 -> 11:37 AM) Now im in a never ending click fest on star wars wiki. Dammit. Darth Maul didnt die? WTF The cartoon "Star Wars: The Clone Wars" brought him back, and I believe they are treating both The Clone Wars and Rebels as canon

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Apr 8, 2016 -> 10:25 AM) Mostly sarcasm. ...mostly. They could though, ABC has plenty of channels that could house it

QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Apr 8, 2016 -> 09:46 AM) That's exactly what a sprain is, and while the term itself doesn't suggest it's any more severe than a broken ankle (I think most would just assume it wasn't) there are differences that actually make it worse. I personally know because I sprained my ankle badly last year. The X Ray was clear of any breaks, however the MRI showed several tears to ligaments and tendons. My rehabilition was for over a month and it took awhile to do everyday activities without pain. This was with a Grade 2 sprain that I recovered quickly from. Now, as a professional athlete with top doctors at his disposal who knows how long any DL stinct would be, but even for a less severe Grade 1 sprain Schwarber should be resting for a week or two. With how that looked and how he reacted, they will be really lucky if it is only 1-2 weeks

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Apr 7, 2016 -> 10:34 PM) Cloak and Dagger got ordered straight to series on Freeform (rebranded name of ABC Family). That is the pinnacle of Marvel gets to do what they want, when they want. At what point do they say "f*** it" and just make a channel? I think it will be a while before they make that leap, they need a lot more original programming

Great series! So glad I don't have to wait until 9pm for their next game!

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 7, 2016 -> 01:01 PM) Jay Bruce is having a hell of a game. How do we get him to Chicago? Im sure the Reds will fly him here when it is time to play the cubs. Unless he is afraid of flying, then he will take a bus

I wonder if Gar will have his season ending exit press conference this season. None of the beat reporters that call in the score think he will

QUOTE (Tony @ Apr 7, 2016 -> 11:07 AM) I sort of agree. If it was a random "action" movie with no tie to this franchise, it would be a hard pass from me based on the trailer. But, it's not. It's the Star Wars universe. I'll see it in theaters, but I have my questions and doubts. agreed, but as you said it is not. They didnt even need to make up a McGuffin, they have an actual piece from New Hope that makes this story work. I am pretty excited about this thing

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 7, 2016 -> 07:45 AM) Given it's clearly canon, I doubt that as Vader was in his full-on Vader suit at the end of Ep 3. My first thought was Palpatine, but that f*** bows for no one. BTW, I am totally down with some new canon Star Wars films with Storm Troopers and amazing visuals and a fantastic story every year. Disney is clearly all-in on their $4 billion investment. Thank god they wrestled it out of George's hands

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 7, 2016 -> 02:42 AM) How come when a Republican is called a monumental ahole (without proof) it's entirely acceptable and I call Hillary something like that and am attacked and told to offer proof or else. you say the same thing every time you talk about Hillary, which is frequently. If you said it once and that was the end of it then it would be a different story, but you are obsessed.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Apr 6, 2016 -> 08:11 PM) Sam Hinkie has resigned as GM of the 76ers. Makes sense. Colangelo was hired as Team President and he's most likely bringing in his son Bryan Colangelo as GM. I would have left to if I were Hinkie. Woj reporting that Hinkie hasn't even told his bosses that he is leaving @wojverticalnba Leaving the job and telling no one would be a fitting ending for Hinkie, who often frustrated staff under him with a lack of communication.

QUOTE (Doc Edwards Shot @ Apr 6, 2016 -> 02:41 PM) Hey, it's the same franchise (SNF) that signed Barry Zito to his monster contract. They apparently smoke too much medical marijuana out there in the Bay... It must be good s*** because they have won their fair share of titles in the past decade

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Apr 6, 2016 -> 11:55 AM) The rule is stupid as far as I'm concerned and there was no injury risk. All we are doing is adding yet another thing to use replay for (which I personally hate in baseball). Unless it can be pretty much instant (like tennis does with in / out or in baseball's case fair / foul), I just find it all absurd. I'm a big believer in the fact that over 162, things will even out and I'd only have replay in the playoffs, where one call can have a much bigger impact on a series given the smaller sample size of the series. Game is already slow, we shouldn't be wasting time on replay in the regular season and while I think they should minimize true take out slides, going in hard and doing what Bautista did was a totally clean play. I realize people don't like subjective rules, but the rule should have been more subjective. You do what Utley did, rule it an out, but allow guys to go hard into the bag (without really doing much to take a guy out) should be clean and it shouldn't be reviewable, imo. Every freaking close play at 2nd base will get reviewed because some minor technicality can get it overturned. Its freaking awful. And yes, I still hate the rule change they did for catchers too. No, no it was not. He reached out and swept his hand under the fielders leg as he was throwing. Citing the slide rule was wrong, that was interference.

Did the royals throw high and tight on anyone like they said they would?

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Apr 5, 2016 -> 07:00 PM) Whether people ultimately would get behind him or not, I do not know, but polls support Greg's statement. He beats Hillary in every poll I've seen (could be one or two out there that I'm not aware of where he doesn't by some slim margin). It makes zero sense. This is like saying "this team that was left out of the ncaa tourney could have won it all". If they could have won it all, they would have been in the tournament
