Majority of teams that start 0-4 are s***. I guarantee a decent majority of most playoff teams hit a 4 game skid at some point during the season. Ours just happened the first four games.

Great game just ruined by officiating. What a joke.

One game people. One game

Micah Johnson.

We've had a few predictions thread, but this one is always the best one. I'll start. Jose Abreu will only hit 22 homers, but will lead the league in average and .obp with 100+RBI Micah Johnson leads the AL in stolen bases and hits over .315 John danks is a respectable 5th starter.

How are they working pitching? Samardzija for the opener Quintana Danks Noesi for the home opener Then samardzija again Then sale? Wouldn't they eventually want samardzija between Quintana and sale?

I would be all over this if it was another two month portion of the season. Guess my 14 game plan will have to do.

Played it last night. Online lag seems almost non existent, and last year it was unplayable.

Already have it downloaded on the system, just have to wait until 11 to fire it up.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 27, 2015 -> 01:45 PM) Then answer this. If he plays out the season, really likes playing for the White Sox but they offer him $20 million less than another team he has never played for, so any of this "getting to know each other" would start all over again, do you really think he would sign with the White Sox? The fact is, he says he has to "get to know" the White Sox, but when he is a free agent, unless he signs with a team he has already played with, he already knows more about the White Sox, than he does that team. It is about the money. The White Sox may be able to be short, but only slightly. You don't risk what he is risking carrying this out to free agency if money isn't one of the highest priorities. He can sign right now for more money than he or a couple of generations of his family will ever need. All these "reading between the lines" posts are fantasy. He said he doesn't want to discuss a contract during the season. He wants to be a free agent. That isn't a guy who seems destined to stay. Why would you sign a massive contract with a team before feeling them out? Obviously that's an advantage you have, he can't do that this offseason with teams . But he can make sure he doesn't get stuck in a disaster or a place he doesn't like for 6 years right now. Might as well take that time.

The outrage in this thread... Who cares.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Mar 24, 2015 -> 07:57 PM) Betting money would be on Bryant, but you never know.....they're going to have to pitch to Jose this year, provided LaRoche and Avisail and Alexei/Conor (to a lesser extent) are forcing opposing to teams to pay for pitching around him, or at least trying to limit him to singles and doubles rather than homers. I would imagine if this was a an actual bet Abreu would be the favorite. So I don't think your first line is right.

Who hits more homers this year abreu or Bryant?

Anyone else think Scott boras complaining about using the CBA to their advantage is hilarious? He'll be milking them for every dime in 7 years.

QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 19, 2015 -> 08:49 PM) Painter should've called TO before that possession. I don't think they had any left.

ISU is in a very winnable bracket.

QUOTE (juddling @ Mar 15, 2015 -> 10:55 AM) Attempted robbery at Chicago themed wrestling restaurant I always thought Victoria was pretty good looking. Didn't know she and her husband had a business in Chicago. Anyone hear of this place?? Been there. Some wrestling memorabilia on the walls, a bunch of TVs had the network on. Food was good. Decent place.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Mar 10, 2015 -> 08:58 PM) You need a future hall of famer to get out of the first round? He made the ECF 1 time. Not the Finals, the ECF. Youre comparing to teams that won the NBA Finals, hes never even made it to the game. He's had a healthy team once in the playoffs. And got out of the first round that year with the Nets with an AAU team basically. If they fire thibs I may have to consider taking a leave of absence from being a fan. Would be very difficult to root for them after Gar/Pax pulled that s***.

Jonathan Banks just won an Emmy with that episode of Better Call Saul. Great episode.

ISU did everything they could there. UNI is a really good team. They managed to weather the storm and come back strong. Sick of ISU being the bridesmaid but never the bride.

Tried to convince some friends to drive down to St. Louis today, but no one wanted to be spontaneous with me. Anyway go redbirds. Let's three bid the valley.

BIRDS

The differnce in coaching there at the end is what sealed it. Some great drawn up plays by the bulls. f*** the fire thibs crowd.
