White Sox draft day one thread
QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jun 6, 2013 -> 10:22 AM) Why don't they just draft Chris Davis? He is leading the league in home runs and the Sox could really use a bat like that I'd prefer to draft Miguel Cabrera and Mike Trout.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jun 6, 2013 -> 10:16 AM) I think they should draft Henry Rodriguez. He throws really hard, but has some control issues. Totally worth a first rounder gas yaz

AND THAT'S A WHITE SOX WINNER!!!
The 16-inning game ended in a 7-5 White Sox victory, but was scoreless through the first 13 innings. The White Sox exploded for 5 runs in the top of the 14th, only to watch the Mariners tie up the game with five runs of their own in the bottom half of the inning, thanks in large part to Kyle Seager's grand slam. It was the first game in history in which both teams ended up scoring five or more runs in a game that had been scoreless through the first nine innings. Kyle Seager's grand slam in the 14th inning was the first game-tying, extra-innings grand slam in history. The five-hour, 42-minute game was the longest home game in Mariners history, and White Sox manager Robin Ventura actually had to leave the game early so he could catch a flight to his daughter's high school graduation. The two teams combined for 12 extra-innings runs, tying the AL record for most runs scored in extras. The two teams accounted for more runs, hits, strikeouts, and pitches in the seven extra innings than they did in the first nine. The winning pitcher, Addison Reed, pitched three innings and surrendered five runs. http://deadspin.com/yesterdays-white-sox-m...ly-cr-511626557

2012-2013 Official NHL thread
QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Jun 6, 2013 -> 09:49 AM) This all just has the feeling of "see you Saturday at 2-2." Someone step up and help steal this game. I'm fairly confident. The Hawks played well enough in the 3rd to realize they just have to play their game. I'm sure Q and Co. showed enough tape of Kane stick handling and those STUPID goal mouth passes that they'll be peppering the net. Hawks will win something like 5-2 or 4-1. I have a feeling they'll outshoot the Kings 15-5 in that first period tonight. And this will be me.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Jun 6, 2013 -> 09:19 AM) The gym would have forgiven you for double OT. He's cool like that. I wouldn't have forgiven myself, though. I wanted to reserve any laziness for day after Hawks games. That is of the highest priority.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 5, 2013 -> 09:39 PM) I have two Frank Thomas ones. I'm guessing you have it. I have a cool Hawk and DJ one and also a Miller Light White Sox vendor. Oh and Mags. Out of curiosity, what's the deal with the Frank ones (since you have two). Consider me interested.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jun 5, 2013 -> 01:27 PM) I'm the same way, but the IGN guy said it took him 14 hours to get through. That's pretty good for a single player campaign. I played the demo last week and it's one of those games where you turn off the lights, turn up the sound and immerse yourself into the world. I need something like this. Very cool.

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Jun 5, 2013 -> 03:18 PM) But it's very much in relation of talk of where the show may go, it's not strictly book talk this time. But it's talk about where the show may go - knowing spoilers and exactly where the show will go.

2013 TV Thread
QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jun 5, 2013 -> 03:18 PM) Yeah I dont even look at any of those comments cause Im not sure if its a TV spoiler or book spoiler. Im caught up on TV, but obviously dont want to glean anything from the spoilers. (edit) But if you are discussing where the tv show is going to go and have read the book you have insight that a tv person would not. IE If in the first season I was saying "Ned is going to be King" after the 1st episode, people who read the book would have said.... HE GETS HIS HEAD CUT OFF

Arod legacy
Let's remind ourselves of how much of a piece of s*** A-Rod was, is, and continues to be. Never used PEDs. Only used them once. Piece of s*** idiot meathead who has been on a consistent drip of steroids and PEDs as long as he's been in the bigs. He was caught in 2003 and continued to use them. He's caught again. He's an idiot and a disgrace.

Arod legacy
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 5, 2013 -> 02:29 PM) So with his suspension, and maybe pending suspension, what is his MLB legacy right now? Is he still a Hall of Famer? One of the greatest hitters of all-time? He goes down as a punch-line just like Barry. No one will ever consider anything he did worthy of discussion without first talking about PEDs and being too big a dumb oaf to stop.

2013 TV Thread
Seriously, I see no reason why the GoT book talk can't go in another thread or in the book thread. These items are separate. If it needs spoilers, it doesn't belong in the thread regarding the TV version of GoT.
