QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 09:14 AM) I'm not sure I care about such things. Based on the Heat/Bulls playoff series, at least for now his job is "when you get a wide open 3 don't pull a Kyle Korver and don't bleeping miss every one!". That is gonna be Dunleavy's job, I believe

I CHOOSE TO BELIEVE MARTYSAURUS REX

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 09:53 AM) You called me a drunk, salty bastard on Twitter truthful terms of endearment

Teague was "best available" at the time. He didnt make sense for the Bulls, but like Steve pointed out, it wasnt like they missed out on something big. If they can flip him for a pick or a player that Thibs can use, that would be great

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 10:28 AM) QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 15, 2013 -> 05:40 AM) * Amazingly inept at the plate kind of like 0/11 with 7 k's(5 in a row) before that triple? Amazingly boneheaded like staring at a ball and posing when you think the ball is out of the park? It's a wonder you get much more upset about what he does than the White Sox players this season, lol. Put it in context, and put up your post I was responding to. Then you will once again see that I am poking fun at your Puig stalking obsession. Kind of like when I proclaim that Puig is the best centerfielder ever to play right field in the history of the game except for Roberto Clemente And the White Sox stopped factoring in to my stress way back in May. No need to get upset when they clearly were not going anywhere.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 10:08 AM) KYLLe was the one micro-analyzing Puig this series. Just thought I would return the favor to show how ridiculous that is, as well. If I was actually being 100% serious, your point would be well taken, thanks. No, KyYlE was the one poking fun at your Puig stalking obsession

I have read a few tweets here and there that indicate the bulls are really trying to move Teague, Thibs prefers Mike James. So I am guessing Snell will get minutes, Teague will not

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 16, 2013 -> 08:15 PM) I hold grudges longer than you guys apparently. To me there was never any grudge to hold. I accepted the possibility that 2012/2013 was lost the minute that Rose blew out his knee. The fault lies with Adidas, Rose's handlers and the front office for their long campaign of false hope and misinformation.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Oct 16, 2013 -> 08:09 PM) Poor Peyton Siva. Sorry kid, this isn't the NCAA anymore. Rose broke him down

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 16, 2013 -> 07:34 PM) Talk to me about that when I'm sitting at a bar in Denver on October 29 before the MIT/caltech party. Until then I'm still pissed. I do still have a Bulls hat to wear though. Pissed about what? It's just petty at this point. The 110 percent jokes are tired. It is a new season, the MVP is back, watch and enjoy it

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Oct 16, 2013 -> 06:33 PM) I hope Peyton puts up 70 on Irsay's Colts for being a clown. Those were some confusing and ridiculous statements coming the week before they were to honor Peyton

@MartysaurusRex: Yo @JayRat90 holla at me. You'll look good in navy and orange.

I wouldnt mind him if he were healthy. I dont know if he is though, he hasnt played since last season

The Cowboys cut Jay Ratliff, and will assume a 10 million dollar cap hit next season because of it. ouch

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Oct 16, 2013 -> 01:10 PM) You realize we have two Cuban players on the White Sox...their weaknesses are pretty much the same, yes? Other than a healthy Miguel Cabrera or Victor Martinez, how many Latin players have what you would consider a great approach at the plate? And what are your recommendations for improving their performance/s? If you can change both of them, as well as DeAza, maybe you should be on the White Sox coaching staff, right? We are talking about a 22 year old rookie, are we not? Who has never played in the MLB playoffs before? If I remember correctly, many superstars like Bonds and Frank Thomas and A-Rod have struggled mightily in the playoffs (in their entire 20's) and were WAY under anything Puig has accomplished already. Absolutely. That is why I said it. Why must I recommend anything? What does it matter? How about I recommend Puig see a few pitches? There, I said it. All is better now. Puig has accomplished WAY more than Bonds and Frank and ARod? Remember when you said we shouldnt judge him based on 2 games? Now it is ok to judge him on the previous series consisting of 4 games, only because he did so well in that series? LMAO, you will jump through any hoop to defend your precious, Golem.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Oct 16, 2013 -> 01:00 PM) No biggie. What is this cuban handbook you speak of? It consists of one line "Swing at anything close"

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Oct 16, 2013 -> 12:13 PM) He should have ran through Carpenter. If I recall, he had a 2-0 count. You are right. I walked back into the room and saw him swing last night, I thought it was his first pitch

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Oct 16, 2013 -> 12:02 PM) That dp yesterday by Puig was just straight brutal. That was more on Eithier but still. He swung at the first pitch he saw. That was straight out of the Cuban handbook. Eithier froze, but he didnt exactly have anywhere to go

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Oct 16, 2013 -> 11:25 AM) LOL. His overall hitting stats for both (combined) playoff series or this one even are better than 80-90% of Cardinals' players, though. Well hey, lets award Puig the "This guy has good combined numbers in both playoffs but is only hitting .150 in this current playoff" trophy right now! He can put it between to his "The Next Roberto Clemente Award" and his "Caulfields BFF" trophy on his mantle. I am sure the Cardinals would take the crappy numbers and late inning wins over good (combined) numbers and absurd strikeouts and late inning fail.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Oct 16, 2013 -> 08:24 AM) I had to watch my grandmother go through Alzheimer's. It was like 8 years of a slow decline to the point where she didn't know anyone but my mom and her two siblings. Everyone else was a complete stranger and she couldn't remember conversations from 30 minutes prior. It was heart breaking. My grandfather, one of the strongest, most bad ass people i've ever met in my life, withered away to nothing in like 2 months from pancreatic cancer. At least he lived a full life up until that point and then went quickly. Death sucks. My grandfather went a year and a half after my grandmother passed. He also was one of the bad ass people I have ever met, he lost half of his left leg to a bomb in WWII in Germany. I never heard the man complain once about his leg, or having to care for my grandmother when things started to go south. Once their partner goes, the air is let out of the balloon for them.

Sorry to hear that Steve, I understand what you are saying. When I was around 13 years old, my grandmother had a series of small strokes and then a grand mal seizure that incapacitated her, and then alzheimers set in shortly after. It wasnt the person I knew for the last 5 years of her life.

My brother went to the game and was honored at intermission as a combat veteran. He was super pumped up about it, they brought him down and gave them seats on the glass. He said it was pretty awesome to get a standing ovation from the crowd. The PR lady made him take off his blackhawks stuff when they honored them on the screen, lol.

Puig dp in the ninth. Him and Punto had some big inning kills

Caulfield, how come in the White Sox thread, you post about Mattingly and the Dodgers, but in the Dodgers/Cardinals thread you post about Ventura and the White Sox? It cracks me up

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 15, 2013 -> 12:42 PM) Funny how they missed Adrian Gonzalez go nuts after his RBI single. No, Wainwright called it Mickey Mouse nonsense
