QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 6, 2011 -> 12:49 AM) In either case, he will be getting paid.. and paid alot (rightfully so, he's a great player) which was my point as well as the UFA money handed out. Ladd's contract is a good one for what he brings. Sharp is a good player, not a great player. His bloated stats the last two seasons have largely been boosted by the elite talent he's played beside, which makes this an interesting case.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jul 5, 2011 -> 05:52 PM) Good, the #13 sucks anyway. Alex Zhamnov says you suck.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jul 5, 2011 -> 04:33 PM) Andrew Ladd got a 5-year, $22 million dollar contract extension ($4.4 million cap hit). That's A LOT of money for him. I really like him as a second-line player with solid defensive skills, but looks like a bit of an overpay. But he is young still, so he could continue to improve. Regardless, good for him. I really liked him as a player. I think that's fair money, really. He's the captain of that franchise and had almost 60 points last year. Ugh, he and big buff playing elsewhere drives me nuts. Damn salary cap.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jul 3, 2011 -> 12:54 AM) For some reason I decided to watch the 1st episode of Franklin & Bash....wow, this is awful I hate you. I find it hilarious, if not a bit dumb. JASON ALEXANDER NEXT WEEK!

QUOTE (chimpy2121 @ Jul 3, 2011 -> 09:36 PM) Havlat for Heatley. Wow. That's nuts.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 3, 2011 -> 11:49 AM) Konerko made the final vote. Honestly, I'll vote at least 100 times for him. It's the least any of us can do. Get him that bonus!

This is an absolute travesty. I've never seen anything dumber in my life. The guy is probably a top 5 MVP candidate, and he can't make the f***ing team?

Congrats!

This Phil Humber s*** gets more awesome by the nanosecond.

Brad Richards, as expected, has signed with the Rangers. $58.5 mill over 9 seasons (6.5 per). He will be 40 when the deal expires. It sure paid to be the cream of the crop in this year's FA.

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 09:52 PM) SOA is simply fantastic, especially season 1&2, season 3 drags on a bit but is still very good (especially the final episode, which makes the whole season worth it). I've got high hopes for season 4, I think they will learn form their mistakes and keep building on what is a already one of the best shows out there. Pretty solid SOA writeup so i won't bother repeating. I love that show.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 07:00 PM) They have done a great job of making you hate all of the characters really. Kinda like Sopranos in that sense. Hating Jesse Pinkman is impossible.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 06:59 PM) They have him, Jamal Mayers (although he's not as frequent with the penalties as Carcillo). John Scott had better be gone, Carcillo had better be a healthy scratch a large part of the time, and another move hopefully is coming. This team has one (maybe two) too many guys that are just big and take penalties up front, and one too few scoring forwards. Not a good sign for a team that wasn't great at scoring 5 on 5 last year and was horrid on the PK. Liked the Brunette move (he's an upgrade over Brouwer IMO), and the Mayers one is fine and I get, but I hope a deal is coming. IMO, Stalberg needs to be out and one more skilled forward needs to be in. I give the team a C for today, very average performance by Bowman. Hopefully Montador and Brunette work out like we hope and expect, they're basically the skill replacements for Campbell and Brouwer as of now. If that happens, Mayers is Scott's replacement as the big forward who fights, and Carcillo is a healthy scratch most of the time, it's fine. Although, I still think the team is one scoring forward short. I was a-ok until they signed that assclown Carcillo.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 06:26 PM) One year, $775K for Carcillo. It's going to be difficult for me to not hate this guy.

If the White Sox win tomorrow, they will be .500.

Thankfully, the Blackhawks listened to me. http://stevotown.com/ Pardon my lameness for linking my site, lol.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 04:24 PM) f*** off he's my boy. Haha. Have his authentic red. Ever see that at a game, it's me, say hello. LOL, pretty funny. I'm the guy in the authentic white. No joke.

Who the f*** is this guy in the #1 jersey. I could learn to stop hating him.

Well, that ensures E-Jax's spot comes up... get someone on and let Adam Dunn pinch hit and show us how he likes to f*** up Wrigley Field.

YES!!!! ALEXEI!
