QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Oct 22, 2013 -> 12:13 AM) GREG, nobody WANTS them, per se, they're just the best possible options or "lesser of two evils." There's just not any top tier 3B available on the free agent market, and the trade market.....there might be guys like Seager and Lawrie but they're going to cost Santiago. Nobody clearly better than Ramirez at SS on the free agent market. And while everyone would prefer to have Brandon Phillips to Gordon Beckham, if you factor in the talent we would have to give up, his age and contract due into his mid 30's, it makes ZERO sense. Waiving Adam Dunn makes no sense....even if you kept Konerko, what LH hitters would we have then to balance out the line-up? Same thing with DeAza....it's Alejandro at $4.4 million or Granderson at $12-15 million, 90% would think the differential's not worth it...and when you add in the length of the contract and it going into his mid 30's again, like Phillips maybe only 3-5% would favor it. The Tigers had two Cy Young pitchers in Scherzer and Verlander, two MVP candidates in Cabrera/Fielder (well, until this year), Torii Hunter, Austin Jackson, Peralta, etc. Then you have Sanchez, Fister, Porcello and Smyly, perhaps the best collection of pitching outside of StL and Atlanta....although some would argue with PLAYOFF Verlander and Scherzer they're the best top 4 in baseball. Eh, they are guys. I wouldnt say those guys make them perhaps the best collection.

Chalmers is good for the heat, I just dont like his faux tough guy act.

Has anyone heard Sound City "Mantra" featuring Dave Grohl, Josh Homme and Trent Reznor? I never thought I would put those three in a music ensemble, but I love it. I never heard of this movie/documentary by Grohl, but I want to see it now http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2306745/

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Oct 22, 2013 -> 09:30 AM) I bet Greg Jennings wishes he was still catching passes from Aaron Rodgers. When he bashed on Rodgers earlier this season, it made absolutely zero sense

Angelo missing on so many drafts after the superbowl year came home to roost this season. It really sucks, but it is true. Emery's first draft is magnified because of it. Angelo literally bought himself some time when he signed Peppers, but now Peppers is looking human and making too much money

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Oct 21, 2013 -> 12:49 PM) This is the Bears/Packers all star injured team QB - Jay Cutler WR - James Jones and Randall Cobb TE - Jermichael Finley RB - James Starks DL - Henry Melton, Nate Collins, Clay Matthews, Nick Perry LB - Lance Briggs, Brad Jones and DJ Williams CB - Casey Hayward and Kelvin Hayden You can put peanut in the CB group too. He hasnt been right pretty much all season

QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 21, 2013 -> 11:20 AM) What's up with all these serious injuries on pedestrian looking plays? Cutler's sack looked totally normal and Wayne looks like he was just diving for the ball. Melton and Collins both blew their knees out without any undercutting or anything either. Just a freak year

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Oct 21, 2013 -> 10:07 AM) Any word on Cutler yet? supposed to be released this afternoon. Emery has a press conference scheduled for around 1:30, Trestman at 12:30

QUOTE (knightni @ Oct 21, 2013 -> 09:46 AM) I'm guessing that that really isn't much solace to Mike Illich. No, but it helps with the spending money part if you are making more money going deeper into the playoffs.

QUOTE (knightni @ Oct 21, 2013 -> 09:38 AM) With all of their spending, Detroit has as many WS titles since 2006 as the Cubs or Sox. They did get there twice though, which the Sox and Cubs have not since 06

Reggie Wayne confirmed torn ACL

Wite, I do believe Jake just told you to STFU

Informed the organization shortly after they lost to Boston. A press conference scheduled for later http://deadspin.com/report-jim-leyland-to-...dspin+Excerpts)

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Oct 21, 2013 -> 08:42 AM) Weeden blows, but the Browns are tough otherwise. The Bills also haven't had a game this year where they didn't have a chance to win late. Those are two very, very tough games coming up for them still. It's crazy to think that the Chiefs are still undefeated, because I don'tt hink I've ever seen the NFL with so much parody. With the exception of the Jags, it really does feel like anyone can beat anyone right now on any given day. The NFL is frequently featured on SNL

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Oct 21, 2013 -> 08:14 AM) Finley is still in the hospital. Scary injury. Is it neck? Concussion? I had my parents over yesterday so I didnt really get a good look at the replay

Pretty brutal day for injuries yesterday. Sam Bradford done for the year(acl), Brian Cushing done for the year(broken leg, LCL), Cutler(groin), Jermichael Finley(head), Reggie Wayne(leg/knee), Briggs(shoulder). I'm sure there are more

McCown had a 119 qb rating. That is craziness

Conte is gonna lose this game all by himself

Conte, abused

QUOTE (Jake @ Oct 20, 2013 -> 02:26 PM) We're in a shootout with Josh McCown at QB f***in A

Just can't stop runs Conte got trucked. Smh

f***ing Forte, damn

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Oct 20, 2013 -> 01:47 PM) Going from Rod M to Tucker also a difference. Injuries and age are the difference

I am hoping for strained hip flexor. With the bye week coming up, it would be a good time to heal. The x Ray bothers me

QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 20, 2013 -> 01:18 PM) Why is it that every time Cutler starts playing really well, he gets hurt? This happened in 2011 as well, where he was making progress on taking care of the ball. No idea. The thing that bothers me about this is how pedestrian the tackle looked
