QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 26, 2014 -> 01:15 PM) I disagree with Marty about a lot of things, a lot more things than I agree with him, but if you are going to call him out for this, you should call out 99% of the people on this board, and don't even bother reading a gamethread. There are some real doozies in that one. Last night you would have read Robin was "actively losing games" for the White Sox and Hahn need to fire him immediately for not keeping Johnson in to continue to get lit up. The statement made no sense then and even less now. I don't recall 99 percent of this board doubting Abreu, even in his bad streak. The Johnson stuff in the game thread was ridiculous though

QUOTE (balfanman @ Apr 26, 2014 -> 11:30 AM) People freak out over Balfour's reaction in the dugout afterwards but I really didn't have a problem with that. Many on this board have said at times that we want to see a player be pissed when they messed up, show some emotion. I think that I would rather have a pitcher of Balfours's talent as our closer right now over Lindstrom and I think that many on here would agree with that. That said, with his overall personality, being an ass clown and all, I really would not want him anywhere near this team. I'm not freaking out per se, I just love watching him get upset after he started a bunch of crap for no reason.

@KCJHoop: Former NBA discipline boss Stu Jackson is Tweeting that Nene should get 1-game suspension at @StuJackson32.

QUOTE (Marty34 @ Apr 26, 2014 -> 11:07 AM) Kyle, this may surprise you, but I'd love nothing more than to be wrong about Abreu being the monster some on Soxtalk believe he will be. It would be a much-needed shot in the arm for this franchise. I've been wrong before and I'll be wrong again. When you choose to give an opinion, it could be wrong. One thing I won't do is hide behind some bootleg stat and say "if I knew he was going to do THAT ..." Right, everyone that disagrees with you hides behind bootleg stats.

QUOTE (Knuckles @ Apr 26, 2014 -> 10:12 AM) He looked so weird out there on the ice, can't believe NHL is allowing this. There was a play late in the 3rd where he had somewhat of a clear shot at a goal and the puck was passed to him from behind Crawford, and he clearly fumbled the pass and struggled just to get control of it.

QUOTE (hammerhead johnson @ Apr 26, 2014 -> 10:12 AM) ISO Standings as of 4/25 1. Jose Abreu .368 2. Albert Pujols .359 3. Troy Tulowitzki .338 4. Adrian Gonzalez .319 5. Michael Morse .314 2013 Final ISO Standings: 1. Chris Davis .348 2. Miguel Cabrera .288 3. Brandon Moss .267 4. Edwin Encarnacion .262 5. David Ortiz .255 His mammoth home runs to dead center are unreal, but I have a feeling there is going to be a few times this summer when he straight up pulls a fastball and will put it close to the concourse. Has anyone noticed the crowd "Oh!" When he gets a hold of one? And not just in the Cell.

QUOTE (Tex @ Apr 26, 2014 -> 07:43 AM) So the thought is someone scammed Amazon or stole a box off someone's porch? How does the Amazon to eBay scam work? No, purchase something on amazon with a stolen credit card and immediately resell the item on eBay for a discounted price

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 26, 2014 -> 10:02 AM) Tampa did better camera work than the Chicago feed did. WCIU FTW

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Apr 26, 2014 -> 12:31 AM) I don't want to be the rain on the parade, but the pitchers will "figure out" Abreu first. To be the sunshine, I don't think you can figure him out. This motherf***er has 9 jacks, and 3 multi-homer games. Dude's just dialed. Anyone unhappy about that one? I know someone who isn't convinced he is the real deal

Matty Ice, right

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 25, 2014 -> 01:24 PM) Do you just have a guy designated to keep score? No, we have a few guys (including me) that take book when not hitting. For the most part we are pretty good about it

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 25, 2014 -> 12:28 PM) I agree with this setup, but I also note that they seem like they haven't held up as well with time as was noted previously. I notice how corny they are a lot more now

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 25, 2014 -> 01:03 PM) Is that page run by your league? I wish leagues here would do stat-keeping. No, our league uses quick scores for schedules and results, but that is it. We keep our own stats on league lineup, it's pretty tidy and free Buffalo Grove uses league lineup for their leagues though, which is pretty cool

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 25, 2014 -> 11:39 AM) You might think this is funny, but one of my managers actually keeps stats for his entire team. http://www.mitcharf.com/mitcharf/softball/ I dont think it is funny at all http://www.leaguelineup.com/teams_baseball...p;sid=287964672 My previous team Cobra Kai is also on league lineup

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Apr 25, 2014 -> 10:26 AM) Yeah, well what's your wRC+? That's all I care about. me, rockraines, and chw42 have been working on softball-reference.com night and day. Be patient

The Juggernaut is pretty fun, we have a few Jeff Halls on our team too. Those things can send it

Look, I think it is ridiculous that he would be suspended a year for smoking. But I also think it is equally ridiculous that he took one puff and got busted for it. Come on.

All of the reviews I have read of ASM2 have been 6s and 7s out of 10. Action awesome, a ton of plot that is stretched out because they are trying to bring in everything to push forward to Sinister 6.

QUOTE (Brian @ Apr 25, 2014 -> 07:52 AM) We've never had that. Our league is tight when one team doesn't have enough, they'll call to director and they call us. It usually happens in the fall in AH. For some reason it always seems that certain bad teams fall apart in the last few weeks. And they never tell anyone

QUOTE (Brian @ Apr 25, 2014 -> 07:21 AM) Our first game is next thurs...at 10pm...vs the worst team. Waste of time. Nah, the only waste of time is when you get to the park and the other team doesnt show

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Apr 24, 2014 -> 11:32 PM) Our first game was Tuesday night. Freezing cold, but luckily we got slaughter rule'd so we didn't play more than 5 innings. lol. I had a rough night at the plate. 1 for 3. 1 of my outs, a groundout to pitcher, the other out was a foul out that squibbed towards 1B. The opposing pitcher kept quickpitching us and the ump kept forgetting to hold him. I realize I should have just taken the pitches, but I was so cold I just wanted to swing at everything. Oh well, we wouldn't have won anyway. I'm considering getting a bat, I just don't think I have the power to hit a HR unless I get a really nice bat. The one I have now is pretty dead, but I only use it for singles to RF, so I never cared. http://www.softballfans.com A lot of my teammates trade bats and buy broken in bats on the forums.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 24, 2014 -> 02:38 PM) I called that............................3rd out today not in the cards. going out on quite a limb. you should gamble

I remain, crushed

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 24, 2014 -> 02:14 PM) It was funny! you should have stuck around after your grand showing, it got funnier
