Why is Haslem so important to them? The guy is replaceable

Added a poll for funsies

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 09:10 AM) Generally, I like Mulligan, but despite this being super picky, I cannot stand the way he asked questions. Instead of asking questions, he adds his commentary for about a minute and then ends with an infliction. It just is so annoying. I know what you are saying, but it really depends on the interview. Sometimes he does that, sometimes he doesnt. He makes me laugh though, he seems like a fun guy to hang out with

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 08:59 AM) 5 year $90 mil max extension for Kyrie Irving. well earned (eye roll smily)

My excuse is 3 kids, work, life. But then again, I am not a part of the attendance truthers or deniers groups

Brooks Boyer just said on the score that if you bought a ticket for last nights postponed game, it becomes a gift certificate for any game you want to use it for, and if you use it tonite then you get two games for the price of one. I dont know if that is a standard practice, but it is pretty cool

lol caulfield why did you bold the part where the kid was born

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 08:10 AM) Cowley is reporting that barring a S&T, the Bulls pitch to Carmelo will be to take $15 million so that they can keep Taj. I have been pretty supportive of GarPax this offseason. They should be fired if keeping Taj Gibson impedes them landing Anthony. Why do we overrate players so bad? It's f***ing Taj Gibson. Who cares. Get Melo his $20 million and do whatever it takes. Figure out the rest later. Thats not the whole thing, it is basically "If you want all the money, we have to work out a S&T and include Taj, if you want Taj to stay then you will have to take less"

Abreu has officially declined participating in the HR derby Edit: actually still slightly ambiguous about it. That's what I get for reading tweets http://www.suntimes.com/sports/baseball/wh...-run-derby.html

i dont trust Pau to stay on the court

flavum or fathom need to get together and discuss being different, and one of them needs a discernable avatar.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Jun 30, 2014 -> 12:05 PM) If fathom started this game thread would anyone say anything? Well you are a mod now, so you tell us

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jun 30, 2014 -> 12:18 PM) That's clearly a legacy payment than current merit. Until the most recent ratings book came out, B&B won their time slot for quite a long time. Mac also brings in ratings. Both of them are annoying in their own ways, but people listen to them

lol, Dunleavy just cant stick anywhere he goes

i have a feeling this will be a "cancelled at 4PM"

QUOTE (raBBit @ Jun 30, 2014 -> 11:47 AM) You don't think the torn labrum would affect his throwing from RF? What would be a typical return time for a torn labrum from a non pitcher? It is his non throwing shoulder, I wouldnt think it would impact that much

Of everything i have read about Rose, it seems he is more naive than dumb(or an asshole). But I dont know the guy, he is a ghost off the court except for promotional appearances, he keeps out of trouble.

Kidd to the Bucks. Done for a 2nd rounder

McNeil must have 3 months of vacation time.

the sox have a fever for the flavum

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Jun 30, 2014 -> 07:48 AM) Trade Winds thread was closed. No Catch All Thread. I guess I'll dump this here. Jon Heyman was on with Mully and Abbatacola this morning. He was talking about how he wasn't sure if the White Sox would be sellers because they are only 5.5 back of the 2nd wildcard. He mentioned that teams would be interested in Beckham, Ramirez, Dunn, and Danks. I can't see Rick Hahn standing pat if there's a deal to be made. The Sox have a real chance here to set themselves up nicely for 2015 and 2016. I hope they do the right thing and sell. The White Sox have a better chance at a top 5 pick than they do a playoff berth in my opinion. Meh, Jon Heyman is New York lingo for Phil Rogers. That guy throws a lot of stuff at the wall

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 29, 2014 -> 02:19 PM) This is shaping up to be an awful series for Toronto. Why did you say this

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jun 29, 2014 -> 02:14 PM) What was that with Sierra and Q? Hugged like 5 times in the dugout lol Lol that was bizarre, Sierra wouldn't let him go And this is also bizarre, why are the fans acting like Melky Cabrera hasn't played in a long time

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 29, 2014 -> 02:05 PM) Yeah I've read that before. A lot of the data certainly seems off. Since he's the only one apparently to ever come across that, I'm guessing there's something funny about adding up those tabs. The thing is, a pitch out is a deterrent strategy. Adding up the percentages doesn't really show a perfect evaluation of what it is, and what it is for. Pitchers waste pitches trying to get batters to chase at pitches out of the zone, it doesn't bother me that pitches are wasted trying to get runners taking bases

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jun 29, 2014 -> 01:18 PM) Tough break there for Abreu Kawasaki plays up the middle a lot on right handers
