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 (Doc Edwards Shot @ Mar 1, 2016 -> 11:34 AM) The First Amendment applies to professional athletes as well as those of us in this message board. No one has to shut up, this isn't North Korea or Cuba. LMAO what?

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

the highlight of the combine is Rich Eisens commentary after Chris Jones' junk fell out of his pants doing the 40 yard dash

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Feb 29, 2016 -> 09:20 AM) When Dan Bernstein turns something into a controversy you know its nothing. WHo f***ing cares. Did he change positions? Because his response earlier was to say that it wasnt a controversy Dan Bernstein ‏@dan_bernstein 1m1 minute ago For all those asking, I have no reason to think @AdamSpankyEaton meant any genuine ill will at any point tonight. Be cool.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Feb 29, 2016 -> 08:57 AM) Can we lock this thread before it gets out of hand? no

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Feb 26, 2016 -> 04:38 PM) @RapSheet Difficult day for #NotreDame LB Jaylon Smith, who had his medicals. Ankle & knee nerve issues, teams believe he's out for 2016 -- at least Sounds like Smith was just hoping for the best. Sucks, he was going to be a really good player. It does suck. You just can't hide that stuff like he was trying to, the doctors will find it

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Feb 26, 2016 -> 03:46 PM) Interesting. I know Hoge had reported that Jeffrey was not yet tagged (contrary to Schefty's report). Schefter hasn't been on the ball with Jeffrey. Just a few weeks ago he was reporting that the Bears were considering letting him walk

QUOTE (gatnom @ Feb 26, 2016 -> 09:06 AM) Only if they're good enough to warrant it, usually. True, but Manziel is big name
