It's arizona. Balls tend to fly far in Arizona

QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Mar 27, 2015 -> 02:39 PM) Better to have a depressed pilot/aircrew that is dealing with or has successfully dealt with the issue than a pilot/aircrew keeping it to themselves because it could mean their career otherwise. yea, the guy was actively hiding it from his employer. Many people have depression and deal with it therapeutically, pharmaceutically, what have you. This guy obviously felt that he needed to hide it because it possibly would ground him due to its severity or company policy.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 27, 2015 -> 01:58 PM) 120 Sports ‏@120Sports 28m28 minutes ago Justin Verlander left today's Spring Training game in the 3rd inning with an undisclosed injury. Strained groin, girlfriend.

One of the rooftop owners was just indicted for mail fraud for under-reporting revenues and attendance to the tune of 600K. whoops

QUOTE (Pants Rowland @ Mar 27, 2015 -> 11:52 AM) Totally agree. Should be the Shark Tank instead of Shark Cage. Now I am really pissed and will boycot this season. But this would mean Shark would have to be in the stands, confined with the fans. QUOTE (shysocks @ Mar 27, 2015 -> 11:55 AM) A shark cage is for the divers (fans) to safely observe the Shark hunting (pitching) in its natural habitat. So the name is actually pretty fitting. /coolstorybro exactly

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Mar 27, 2015 -> 09:52 AM) This isn't the whole story though. Houston took him at #1 because he agreed to a deal at $6.5 million. They drafted him. He got there, they found the small UCL and then offered $5 million. I wouldn't have played for that team either. He bet on himself and he lost. He will get drafted again though, probably in the top 10. i get that they looked extremely bad in the process of what happened, all I am replying to is LDF saying that Houston needs to come out and say something. There really isnt anything they need to say anymore, they already took their PR hit. "We wish Brady the best in his future endeavors" 6 months ago is really all that needed to be said. Saying anything right now just looks like rubbing it in and makes them look worse.

Kiper lied to me about Cedric Benson. I will not let him do it again

Kiper thinks a lot of things. Many of them are way off base

QUOTE (LDF @ Mar 26, 2015 -> 07:23 PM) Hou took a huge hit at the time, i guess if they want to not take the high road, they can say in 1 statement, " we had some concerns" or "we told you so" I don't see how the hit they took last year applies now, since the concerns they had with his elbow proved out and he is now having TJS. They don't have to say anything, there is no road that needs to be taken high or low. They saw something, it worried them, they lowballed the player, he refused the deal and bet on himself. Unfortunately he lost his bet and Houston looks better for letting him walk away.

QUOTE (LDF @ Mar 26, 2015 -> 07:05 PM) yeah, someone can look it that way, but i bet Hou will still try spin doctoring it. Houston doesn't have to spin anything. They were worried about his elbow and they were proven correct to worry. They have had nothing to do with him

All over

What park district?

Well, Bernstein owned it and sounded contrite.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Mar 26, 2015 -> 12:11 PM) Bernstein act is beyond old.............his ego makes North's look small. Lets not get too crazy here.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Mar 26, 2015 -> 10:20 AM) IMO if you're not receiving government money, you should be able to exclude whoever you want. But that's just me. You don't want to serve Cubs fans? Fine, don't. You don't want to serve gays? Fine, don't. It's 2015. Unless you're in the deep south in a town of 200, that kind of business isn't staying open very long. Somehow I think if a business found some part of your personal life and used it to refuse service to you, you wouldnt be so open to it. But thats just me.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Mar 26, 2015 -> 11:47 AM) To me the rumors and trades seemed to be a race to be first and it ends up being misinformation or wrong. Personally I found it to be more work than it was worth and became to time consuming with pointless crap of self absorbent assclowns seems like a normal progression for any form of media

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Mar 26, 2015 -> 11:37 AM) I still for the life of me do not see what good has ever coming from Twitter. Nothing. Nothing really good comes from social media especially when out relationships hit you up. I love it for sports news, rumors, trades

Separation of church and state, love it

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Mar 26, 2015 -> 10:00 AM) alrighty then

Spiegel is addressing it right now, he seems pretty apologetic and regretful. Should be interesting to see if Bernstein does the same at 1, I doubt it

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Mar 26, 2015 -> 08:50 AM) I really wouldn't mind Viciedo back on a cheaper, minor league deal just hoping we wouldn't need him. i would mind this very much

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Mar 26, 2015 -> 08:35 AM) I dont know much about avionics.... Is it possible the co-pilot passed out onto the steering wheel (whatever the aviation version is called) and it caused the plane to go down? they are saying that the way the plane descended could only be intentional

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Mar 26, 2015 -> 12:15 AM) Differences: 1) All the attendant media hype surrounding one year of eye-popping numbers in the minors 2) 107 years and counting without a World Series title 3) Gary Scott/Kevin Orie/Bobby Hill/Brooks Kieschnick/Hee Sop Choi, etc. Long string of busts in the infield for the Cubs. Shawon Dunston never even quite lived up to the hype back in the mid 80's. 4) Kyle Schwarber=Babe Ruth (enough said) #caulfielded

Just a terrible thing. This entire plane probably knew their fates, and they were 5-10 feet from being able to save themselves if not for a lock designed to protect them.

QUOTE (daggins @ Mar 25, 2015 -> 10:34 PM) You didn't do half as bad as the Royals announcers. People complain about Hawk but I would take him every day over Hudler. Brutal
