I love Coach Kill, I am happy he seems to have his medical issues under control and Minnesota finally has started to turn around for him

Official Squared Circle Thread
QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Oct 17, 2014 -> 09:11 PM) Every fricken main event whether its on RAW or Smackdown is really p***ing me off. It's either a crap match, or a really good match that is disqualified by the authority (Rollins, Kane, Orton). So dumb. It's sad that the WWE has to go to its old stars to make a main event like the Rock. I think another poster mentioned this, but they are not developing anyone new and exciting. I think Ziggler can be a guy, but the WWE keeps screwing him over. Daniel Bryan's career could be finished and CM Punk quit. Dumb. Even dumber is that Lesnar isn't even in the building 80% of the shows. They took it away from Bryan because he's not that, yet Lesner hasn't been on the show for a month and probably won't fight until January..... They f***ed up the Bryan angle so bad, and now he is hurt for an indefinite amount of time. Word is that he is going to finally get tommy john surgery because rehab wasn't helping him get the strength and feeling back in his arm. That means no mania

He must really have started to cause problems. This was something that you would think would wait until the offseason

Kind of crazy to think that Lincecum is in the pen and has had no impact on the team at all.

whatever happened will come out. Pretty shocking to me though, he seems like the type of player you could tolerate as a bit of a diva

2014 Films Thread
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 17, 2014 -> 01:47 PM) If the next one, BVS, is on the same quality level as the last film, that will pretty much end all hope from my side. I agree that the game needs to be stepped up. I just dont like how they are going about it, it seems just way too forced. BvS seems like a movie that should come after the core Justice League movies are established, not before all but Superman.

We used to have a few outdoor cats in the field behind our house. But we also have a pack of coyotes that travels up and down a stream in the field. And now we no longer have outdoor cats in the field

Your 2015 Offseason Plan
QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Oct 17, 2014 -> 09:06 AM) Lol, who ever replies "+1" on Reddit? I got in the habit of replying +1 on older forums that wouldn't let you simply quote a reply and not add any text. So you weren't exaggerating when you said your whole plan was just "do good things"? If you don't want to be exposed to ideas more precise than that, this probably isn't the thread for you. Also, regarding trading prospects: I think there can definitely be situations where this team is ready to trade prospects. However, they have to be situations where we are acquiring ML players with a significant amount of controlability and, if not upside, at least evidence to suggest that their performances are sustainable over several years. It's totally fair if you think Carlos Gonzalez is a bad idea because you think he's overrated, but the idea of trading prospects for a guy who is 28, has a star-level track record, and may come at a discount because of his contract and injury history DOES make sense on paper. So the response to that should not be "NO THAT IS DUMB THING," but rather, "Carlos Gonzalez is a bad idea because I think his injury issues are real and there's a lot of reason to believe his numbers are propped up by Coors and that his best years are behind him. +1

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 16, 2014 -> 04:36 PM) Why would that possibly be the case? Too long of a layoff is the only thing I can guess that actually matters on the baseball field, the only other possible reason would be "28 games in baseball is a very small sample and you're finding something totally not predictive of anything". I wanted to say that this just doesn't seem like something you would want to call a trend, considering that the teams are different year to year and there are so many variables in each series. I certainly wouldn't want to put money against the Royals because of this "trend"

Your 2015 Offseason Plan
QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Oct 16, 2014 -> 05:17 PM) Make smart decisions. You know, if you are going to insult SoxPride and his ideas, the least thing you could do is come up with something better than this when asked to show off your own foolproof plan.

Keep Briggs and Conte out of this one. This team needs to get healthy, they cant keep having guys getting hurt every game and coming out like Conte is doing

The Kansas City Model
QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Oct 16, 2014 -> 03:01 PM) Here is a question, would you rather be relevant and in playoff contention 80% of the time (making the playoffs more often then not while not winning the series) or be relevant once every 30 years and win the series that one time. For me I'll take the relevant and not winning series vs. extended periods of irrelevance. Yea, i would much rather my favorite team consistently being in contention than surprise me and catch lightning in a bottle.

Priority 1 / Priority 2 / Priority 3
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 16, 2014 -> 02:29 PM) The team has 2 possible bullpen lefties on the roster in Surkamp and Snodgress. Many didn't notice but after his 2nd callup Surkamp did very well as a bullpen lefty role.What I'd guess they'll do for lefties in the bullpen, based on this franchise's previous moves, is sign one LHP to a 1 year contract, maybe 1 year with an option, and let those 2 lefties compete for the other spot in ST with Surkamp having the inside track due to experience and the other takes a key bullpen role, possibly closer, at Charlotte. I just worry about Veal part 2, although i do recognize that bullpen arms(and performances) are not predictable year to year. It would be nice to have a few LOOGYs come out of the minors, but i would like to see some more competition next spring

The Kansas City Model
QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 16, 2014 -> 01:50 PM) KC also has owned the White Sox in recent years. The Sox don't match up well with KC cause KC can hit homers in the Cell and have owned the Sox in the Cell. really, what does this have to do with what we are seeing now? They didnt have to play the Sox in the playoffs. They beat up on a bad team all season,That was what they were supposed to do. I dont even know if they hit more homers in the cell than any other team, i cant remember them doing anything but pitching very well and playing good defense, which is already known

I kind of felt bad for him, because im sure the early servings were much better. but, he was a douche and made me hope he was about to get booted.

The Pet Thread
QUOTE (Jake @ Oct 16, 2014 -> 11:57 AM) My girlfriend's family had a indoor/outdoor cat who wore a collar and was neutered but not microchipped. He went missing and they found his collar on the ground - it was a breakaway, so it could have been coincidence that it just came off. They tried very hard to find him, but never did. So one of our barometers here is if this was THAT cat, would my girlfriend's family find him? We think yes, now that we've spread the word through the neighborhood and posted on PetFBI (Humane Society doesn't maintain any listings themselves, they refer everyone to PetFBI) and Craigslist. It's crazy to think someone might have abandoned this cat. He's so well mannered. Uses his box, is affectionate, doesn't scratch things, etc. I can hardly think of a less offensive animal to have around. Some cats simply love people. I had a cat about 10 years ago that i found as a kitten running around a trailer park in the rain. He was following me as i was delivering a pizza, and i started pulling my car away he started following me. I laughed and told myself "if i open the door, and he jumps in, im taking him". I opened the door, and he walked up to the door, laid on the ground and rolled around, then jumped in my lap. I didnt think twice about grabbing him. It was a pretty seedy trailer park, he was covered in fleas and severely underfed. He was the best cat i ever had, he thought he was one of my dogs, he wasnt scared of them at all.
