QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 9, 2015 -> 09:03 AM) LOL, both of my dogs never wanted to come inside, ever. Our neighbors probably thought we were torturing my Rotty but he legit did give two s***s about the cold. With that said, people who leave dogs outside 24/7 are f***ed up to me. My nieghbor in Michigan had 7 rotty's living in a cage/dog house for years. Those dogs were mean and miserable. I just wonder what is the point of having a dog if you keep it in a run, away from everyone, outside? Its just a possession at that point, not a pet. And it is a bill My dad has a 200 lb Newfoundland, and when we had those winter freezes he would go outside and just lay down in the snow like he was at the beach

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Jul 9, 2015 -> 07:57 AM) No dog should be an "outside dog" Except Newfoundlands and Malamutes in the winter. Because goddammit they wont come inside

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jul 8, 2015 -> 09:03 PM) So why couldn't we score these 4 runs last night when we had a good pitcher out there? Blake Griffin can't hit a hanging curveball

Oh hey john Danks there you are

QUOTE (shipps @ Jul 8, 2015 -> 05:22 PM) Isnt Paul one of the players trying to recruit him back? WTF I'm sure someone said "hey dumbass, he is our only rim protector"

Lmao, this story has so many layers http://m.bleacherreport.com/articles/25179...paign=editorial

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jul 8, 2015 -> 03:06 PM) How the heck have they tampered? Guy isn't under contract and he was last with the Clippers. They are saying the verbal agreement. Nothing has been done yet so it is all threats until the pen meets the paper

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 8, 2015 -> 02:11 PM) What Carlos Boozer did to Cleveland was way worse and I don't think Boozer got in trouble for it legally. IIRC Boozer was the one doing the shady business though, correct? Whereas the Clippers are the ones coming in after the fact trying to get DJ back

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jul 8, 2015 -> 01:46 PM) Is it really tampering though when no one has signed anything? I think this is more an unwritten rule than anything else. And Broussard (I think) reported that Jordan called Doc and told him he was unsure. So i'm sure the defense will be he reached out to me. Also, if he leaves, Mavs fans should refer to to him as IDKWTI. #Illini #sourgrapes #EricGordonIsStillAPOS Verbal agreement, i have no idea how binding it is. It is pretty bad form though. If a player agrees to terms and you move on to your next offseason move, only to have the player renege and go back to his former team, you have lost out on any potential replacement at that position.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jul 8, 2015 -> 01:26 PM) How pissed is Cuban right now? Apparently he is talking legal action for tampering. the grand offseason of Doc River, GM extraordinaire, continues

movie companies are starting to put digital watermarks on the preview DVDs because these rips are becoming more and more common. Im sure some will be sniffed out and removed

Broussard vs Bomani Jones on twitter was fun yesterday

QUOTE (Brian @ Jul 7, 2015 -> 03:01 PM) Any more news of Royce White? still afraid of airplanes

keep kicking that dog, Balta

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jul 3, 2015 -> 10:41 PM) Wow, that's sad! I wonder how your brother will take the news. He was pissed. He let his lawyer know to contest my claim I let the African lawyer(Ubaaka) know that my attorney, Jackie Chiles, advised me that he will have to fill out the proper 1D10T forms before we proceed.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 7, 2015 -> 11:51 AM) I need to start a petition to rename the 4th of July, "Darwin Day". many darwin awards were given away on Saturday

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 7, 2015 -> 11:36 AM) They still have the right to pull their franchise tag offer and so far I haven't seen them do that? no, the long term offer was pulled http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap300000050...ason-pierrepaul

QUOTE (HuskyCaucasian @ Jul 6, 2015 -> 01:25 PM) "parts of fingers and a lot of skin missing" I think that's all rumors right now. I've heard anything from minor damage to "might lose his hand". well one thing that is not rumor is that the Giants just pulled their contract offer from him. So apparently it is enough damage for the Giants to tell him "No thanks"

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 6, 2015 -> 12:49 PM) What the hell ? You guys must be bored to tears waiting for this pitching matchup. Really ? Arguing about Viciedo vs. Melky ? I admit I had huge hopes that Viciedo could become an elite hitter. He didn't ever improve for whatever reason he just didn't have IT. At least I'm not seeing Melky kick the ball around then pick it and drop it and kick it again.And Melky has had actual good seasons and I'm pretty sure some of those haven't been because of steroids. Viciedo wishes he could have the career of Melky. But I guess that just me adding to the argument. Even if we got the good Melky or the better Viciedo it wouldn't make any impact on where this team currently stands. It would only be one player hitting better still with defensive issues with most of the hitters still under performing. WELCOME TO SOXTALK!

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 6, 2015 -> 12:04 PM) Yes, but they never replaced any of his power on the bench to help vs LHP. The Sox have an OPS .046 lower vs LHP than anyone in baseball. Oakland is the 2nd worst AL team vs LHP, and they are nearly .100 points higher. Let's just say, it's a good thing the Sox never have to face Chris Sale Oakland is 2nd worst and have no place for Viciedo on the roster. That should tell you something right there

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 6, 2015 -> 12:01 PM) We used to have a ridiculously good team on Thursday nights. We didn't lose a game in 2 straight seasons. Then our manager got really involved in USSSA tournaments and started using the team as a way to recruit players and try them out before tournaments. Then we started sucking and more or less everybody quit the team. League night just isn't fun anymore when you're using it to warm up for tournaments or bigger games. USSSA is weird. We play in a hybrid ISA/ASA league, and there have been a few players that have come in from USSSA and they have been totally outclassed. I dont know what the difference is, but we had one guy pitch against us, and he was a tourney player. We lit the guy up, the final score was like 26-2 slaughter rule, and when he hit he looked like he never swung a bat.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jul 6, 2015 -> 11:58 AM) Its more likely we get JLin in a sign and trade. I heard the Mavericks are doing that

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 6, 2015 -> 11:56 AM) Even as the DH? But I agree about your Bonifacio in theory idea. I recall after he signed, they even talked about him being a DH against LHP sometimes. Unfortunately he forgot how to play baseball this year. Come on now, you watched Viciedo just like I did. The last couple years were complete garbage, no steps forward, and actually he regressed against lefties(last year he was worse against lefties than righties). The cord needed to be cut

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 6, 2015 -> 11:46 AM) Phantom? Seriously? lets cry about them every time he is brought up, seriously. Because err mer gerd he got busted 4 years ago QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 6, 2015 -> 11:47 AM) .837 OPS in his career against LHP with some much needed power included in that. I don't think anyone on here wanted him back as a starter this year, but he would have been a more valuable bench piece/LHP platoon than Bonifacio has been (for similar cost). Viciedo hurts your bench because in order to hit him against lefties you need to play another defender in his place after he hits. That is terrible strategy. Bonifacio at least plays multiple positions and you can play him after he hits(at least that was the theory) but hey! Viciedo can hit a lefty sometimes!

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 6, 2015 -> 11:43 AM) Take a look at Viciedo's numbers. 50-100 points better OPS than Melky and ~comparably bad defense. Im looking at his numbers this season. Where other teams have the opportunity to platoon him against lefties. Oh wait, there are none. I would take Melky and all of his phantom Balta branded steroids over Dayan Viciedo every day and twice on sunday
