QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Mar 3, 2016 -> 02:41 PM) I'm more excited for the book but we all know how pointless that is. I'm excited for the new season. I'm surprised there hasn't been a trailer yet though. So pumped they're doing the Greyjoy stroyline this season though. They also arent screening this season early for reviewers. Very very secretive

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Mar 3, 2016 -> 10:56 AM) You guys realize, the target audience is the kids, whose parents were the primary demographic of the original. I don't think, outside of some early nostaligia, the goal was for people in their early to late 30's to be watching the show, rather their kids to be watching the show and the parents at least having that ability to "relate" to it, so to speak. I could be wrong and my kids aren't old enough. And I thought the show was a classic and watched it plenty growing up. I dont know man, I think the target audience is the original audience, now grown up. Kids whose parents were the original primary demo arent going to understand the many references to the original show

QUOTE (shysocks @ Mar 3, 2016 -> 08:59 AM) Everyone here would love to have Semien. You know this deep down in places you don't talk about at parties. The rest of the guys I'll take or leave. I'll keep arguing that Josh Phegley sucks for the rest of my life if I have to. I'll write it on his Hall of Fame plaque. he is no hero, thats for sure

QUOTE (Vance Law @ Mar 3, 2016 -> 03:38 AM) Nope. Both will be on the team. Both will play plenty during the season. Whoever plays better will play more. Bizarre fixation, not just in this specific case, but in general with "who's gonna win the job?" and "who's gonna be named the starter?" Whoever plays the best will get the playing time during the season. Opening day is irrelevant. Micah Johnson was the opening day 2nd baseman. He lasted a month. We're talking about a $2 million 37 year old and a guy playing for the league minimum. There's no incentive to play anyone other than whoever is playing best. Rollns should have the job on opening day assuming he shows he isn't cooked. He's done it for a ton of years. He hits left handed. He'll benefit from time off with Saladino playing particularly against lefties. If and when Saladino proves he's the bigger asset on the field on a daily basis, he'll play more. LIKE

QUOTE (Iwritecode @ Mar 2, 2016 -> 04:14 PM) They managed it with Harry Potter... Harry Potter is really a straightforward story though. Steven King books are anything but, there is a lot of first person thoughts and feelings that tend to get lost in his movies(IMO).

QUOTE (kevo880 @ Mar 2, 2016 -> 05:30 PM) I know it's not a huge position of need, but knowing how John Fox loves having multiple RB's and how our RB coach used to be OSU's RB coach, who apparently get's all the credit from Elliot for Elliot turning into the beast that he is; does anyone here think it's even a possibility that the Bears could draft Elliot in the 1st? I like Elliott, he looks like he is gonna be a good back. But if the Bears drafted him at 11 I would be really pissed off, running backs are plug n play in the NFL and the Bears seem to be set as it stands. Unless you think that Elliott is the next AP, you let him go. And if he is the next AP, he isn't getting to 11

QUOTE (Iwritecode @ Mar 2, 2016 -> 02:00 PM) Stephen King's The Dark Tower finally being made into a film. I have a really bad feeling about this. A lot of talk has already been stirred up at the fact they are casting Idris Ebla to play a character that was originally based on Clint Eastwood. My concern is that they aren't going to be true to the books at all in an attempt to appeal to the wider masses. They've already had news about casting a character that literally appears on only one page and not until book 7. I'm not even sure she had any spoken lines in the book. The fact that they chose Elba doesn't bother me in the least. I just worry that the size and scope of this story is just far too big for a series of movies

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Mar 2, 2016 -> 12:34 PM) You keep saying this, do you have proof this happened? What are you basing this on? Cowley, Aschburner, and Seku Smith have all referred to it in various interviews(and articles, in Cowleys case) QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Mar 2, 2016 -> 12:48 PM) The unfortunate thing is, I feel for Hoiberg, I think he walked into a disaster of a situation and I'd imagine if he had a time machine, he'd have handled things slightly different from the start (to put his stamp and overall control on things). If I had a time machine, I'd go back, get a JR costume and can Gar just before he could get rid of Ron Adams (and have Thibs pull Rose a minute earlier in that Philly game)...oh and of course buy some winning powerballs so that when I got back to the future, I could buy my favorite franchises and than read posts on Soxtalk about people b****ing about ownership I dont feel bad for him at all. It isnt like what happened last year and what is happening this year was a secret. He thought he could handle this and was the right guy to fix it(as did Gar), and he was wrong

Gar created this asylum

i suddenly dont want Jimmy Rollins to hit all of his incentives

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Mar 2, 2016 -> 11:26 AM) I realize the Bulls are cheap, but does Hoiberg get a 2nd year? Honestly, this is a disaster. Yes, there are injuries, but they don't even play. Someone has to lose their job for this season. Do you honestly think the front office will swallow 20M one year after they swallowed 10m?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 2, 2016 -> 07:08 AM) The Bulls problems are almost all related to injuries. It is hard to call Butler, Mirotic, and Rose missing extended periods a flop. Nah, this was happening when they were healthy. The Bulls problems are almost all related to dysfunction, and the injuries are magnifying it

QUOTE (Tony @ Mar 1, 2016 -> 08:22 PM) Seriously, that is honestly one player that if the Hawks ever acquired him, I'd have a real hard time getting behind them. I'd obviously get over it, but it would be a real tough pill to swallow. I don't think there is another player in the league I can say that about. Carbomb seemed to generate that sentiment here when he came to chicago

Snell is so unbelievably worthless

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Mar 1, 2016 -> 11:48 AM) March 9th 12pm. I guess we are both right http://www.nola.com/saints/index.ssf/2016/...gency_star.html

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Mar 1, 2016 -> 11:45 AM) When does free agency start? Next monday, officially But like always, deals are reported before the official date Marques Colston was just cut by the Saints

John Feinsteins sports minutes on the score are the worst

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Mar 1, 2016 -> 06:41 AM) " I disavow David Duke". His exact words on Friday when first questioned about it. It's really, really, really grasping at straws here to say otherwise. And again people wonder why he only gains more popular when the bulls*** like this is latched onto. Its not grasping at straws, he was asked directly about it and said "I dont know enough about him" and different variations of that instead of saying he wanted nothing to do with Duke. And it is bulls***, he knew who Duke is, everyone knows who Duke is, it isnt a secret.

I wonder if Alshon is able to buy out of that strange contract he signed with that company that treats him like a stock. http://www.chicagobusiness.com/article/201...ipo-on-earnings

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Mar 1, 2016 -> 07:21 AM) Oh, you have connections to the situation, or would you like to share WHERE you're "hearing" these "rumors"? We got f***in' Chris Broussard up in here. I heard it on the score, then I searched it and saw about 20 different stories and tweets within the last day. So there are my sauces, enjoy

I'm hearing some rumors that Kyrie wants out of Cleveland because he can't stand Lue

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Mar 1, 2016 -> 06:34 AM) Do you believe the White Sox prefer for their players to be openly political? It's probably not very helpful from a public relations standpoint to criticize the most famous White Sox fan in the world...many would see it as disrespectful. I don't really see Beckham inviting George Bush to his wedding as an openly political statement, and I don't really see it running parallel with Eaton either

Good story about Gordon Beckhams wedding invites. Compelling and rich
