These guys just followed me on Twitter, I kind of like their sound https://m.soundcloud.com/rakunk

Of course, the creator of the thread

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 18, 2015 -> 02:37 PM) Jon Lester? Samardzija was part of the tear down, Lester theoretically will be the beneficiary of that teardown and be part of the upswing. And yea, Lester got paid and Samardzija did not

I didnt hear him say they could build a defense around him, but he did say that Ratliff could play Nose in a 3-4 and has done it before

QUOTE (brett05 @ Feb 18, 2015 -> 12:49 PM) I want to say it was an article in the Tribune or it was on ESPN 1000. Basically said it's nice to finally play for a team in Chicago that cares about winning. Well yea, he didnt like being part of a rebuild, who would? It cant be fun being in the middle of your prime while the team is being torn down around you and rebuilt, without being in those rebuild plans. But he didnt really put it the way you said it, I never heard him say he didnt like playing for the Cubs.

QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Feb 18, 2015 -> 12:11 PM) What exactly was the purpose of this press conference? Its the combine press conference, standard stuff. They all do it

hiring news broken here, by one Ooops i Shippsed my pants

I dont think Jeff ever said he disliked playing for the Cubs, I think he disliked that Theo and Jed didnt see him in their future plans and were not willing to pay him what he felt he was worth

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Feb 18, 2015 -> 10:46 AM) Did he make a comment about showtime? Or more something along player distractions. He was asked if Marshall is a bear, would he allow him to do the show. His reply was (not verbatim) "I want my players to be focused on one thing, and that is winning a championship" Actually here is the quote from Dan Weiderer @danwiederer: Fox on Marshall: "Regardless of who it is, their focus and energy has to remain on what's going to help us win a championship."

also, if Marshall is a bear I highly doubt that he will be doing TV with showtime.

Fox just talked at the combine, a few key points He confirmed that they will run predominantly out of the 3-4 He made absolutely no committment to Cutler, all he would say is that he met with him(and that he met with many players) Confirmed interest in McCown

I think Abbattacola is a good bet. Goff would surprise me, he loves his gig with Sirius "Off the Dribble"

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Feb 18, 2015 -> 08:44 AM) So basically the idea was "let's make the logo as big as the helmet itself" Pretty much, with some snazzy background effects. I kind of liked the Steelers, and even though it wasnt much of a change i also liked the Colts

Oh yea, that isnt shady at all

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Feb 18, 2015 -> 07:47 AM) I lived in Memphis for a few years, and this was a big thing there. Their building codes aren't what they are in Chicago, so there were many situations where pipes were run in outside walls, sometimes with no insulation. On nights when it was going to go below about 25 degrees, the news covereage went into hyperdrive and told everyone to open all the cabinets and run all their faucets all night. It was so cute. And the one time in 3 winters down there they got a measurable snow that stuck (2-3", stayed for a day), the entire city shut down. I mean, other than FedEx's operations at the airport (FedEx literally owned the only snow plows in town, and they NEVER shut down for ANYTHING), NOTHING was open. And of course the night before, there was the bum rush on bread and milk at the grocery stores. Carbondale was very similar. If they got snow, it was a nightmare. My freshman year(fall 96) there was a pretty big snowfalland they spread wood coal on the streets, I had never seen that before. It was extremely messy

Concept helmet designs some interesting, some a bit too much. i would like to see them matched with uniforms to get the full idea

I gotta say I am impressed with what CW is doing with The Flash. I really like Harrison Wells character, his motives are slowly coming out, but he has been great at playing both sides

I hope everyone has their car batteries charged up for the next couple days

NBPA cares about what Lebron thinks

i can handle Farmer and DJ in small doses, but Farmer really grates on me with his inside jokes and calling a homerun for every batter. And I agree with an earlier post that Farmer really doesnt paint the picture well, he leaves out a lot of key details when calling a game. He doesnt harbor grudges like Hawk though

Supposedly a second Avengers:Age of Ultron trailer will air with the premiere of SHIELD on March 3rd

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Feb 17, 2015 -> 10:50 AM) Farmer puts me to sleep. he is monotone, but the nonsense that comes out of his mouth more than matches Hawk
