Michael Young
QUOTE (Special K @ Feb 9, 2011 -> 12:24 PM) Yeah, I gotta say, I feel like that's a pretty bad K they gave to Young. I didn't realize he was making $16 million a year. He's a very nice player, but I don't feel he's worth that much, especially given the fact that he's been given a diminished role on the Rangers. PECOTA already projects the White Sox to have the best offense in baseball... no sense in adding Young to hurt our defense.

White Sox Off-Season Catch All Thread
QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Feb 8, 2011 -> 11:33 PM) I'm willing to take that risk. Guys like Strasburg come along once a generation (think Bo Jackson, LeBron James). I'm a big Danks fan. But there are at least five left-handed starters alone of similar age I would take over Danks. Think Prior, Gooden, Wood.

*Official* Work Out Thread
I really don't want to offend anyone, but I have to post this. Last night, an Indian man got on the machine next to me and I knew I was toast. Is there something in their religion that says deodorant is bad? I had to switch machines as my nostrils were burning. This isn't the first time, it seems like 9/10 of Indian males* who work out at my gym are unaware that such a product exists, so this is a serious question. It was beyond awful. I wanted to punch this guy. He at least wound up with a whole section of treadmills to himself. I think I'll invent a set of cardio equipment that has smell detectors and refuses to operate with someone who smells that filthy. *I have multiple Indian co-workers and friends and had an Indian roommate in college and this never seems to be an issue. Of course, they aren't jogging at said time. I am curious why this is the case in a larger percentage, and not trying to incite an argument or seem racist.

2011 TV Thread
QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 9, 2011 -> 09:19 AM) Can I start watching Justified Season 2 tonight and be ok with not seeing Season 1 right away? I wouldn't do that. Check On Demand, I bet FX is smart enough to have season 1 available. Season 1 had a lot of story... obviously.

Sprint has me upset. It seems that they now have added a $10 premium charge to phones that use internet connectivity ON TOP OF the everything plans. F*ck the heck?

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Feb 8, 2011 -> 09:16 AM) Yeah but a whole series where gang bangers use words like "jerk" and "idiot". Come on. I don't see why they don't just beep it out like NBC did with Southland the first season and they've continued with on TNT. It doesn't take anything away and keeps it realistic.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Feb 7, 2011 -> 06:57 PM) I'd probably say you could debate Kenyon Martin and Andrew Bogut as well. Bogut? Really? Bogut? No, I'd say you most certainly cannot debate Andrew Bogut. He is farking awesome. K-Mart was a much more effective player than Bargnani as well.

2010-2011 NBA Thread
QUOTE (GoodAsGould @ Feb 7, 2011 -> 05:26 PM) That being said, you could do a lot worse than drafting a Bargnani. Eh, 1st overall? I know 2006 sucked, but they'd have been better off going with Aldridge, Roy, or Gay at that pick (not that at the time it would have been advocated). Bargnani is one of the worst 1st overall selections in the last 20 seasons. I've bolded whom I think could arguably be considered a worse pick. 2010 John Wall 2009 Blake Griffin 2008 Derrick Rose 2007 Greg Oden* 2006 Andrea Bargnani 2005 Andrew Bogut 2004 Dwight Howard 2003 LeBron James 2002 Yao Ming 2001 Kwame Brown 2000 Kenyon Martin 1999 Elton Brand 1998 Michael Olowokandi 1997 Tim Duncan 1996 Allen Iverson 1995 Joe Smith 1994 Glenn Robinson 1993 Chris Webber 1992 Shaquille O'Neal 1991 Larry Johnson * - Only for injuries Sure, there's time for Bargnani to continue developing, so the jury isn't out as he's only 25, but yes, you could do worse taking a Bargnani first overall, but not much worse.

QUOTE (Felix @ Feb 7, 2011 -> 06:43 PM) Except Bargnani is about as bad as can be on defense. And yeah, he's really not that good. Yup. He's quite an average player...

2010-2011 NBA Thread
QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Feb 7, 2011 -> 05:22 PM) If 21-6-2 is average, I want more guys like him then. His percentages are down, obviously, because he's basically the only guy in Toronto who can score. But he can light it up. His percentages are down and he's basically completely stopped blocking shots. He is not a player you build around... he scores 20 ppg because he's just that... average guy on a s*** team. 21 points on 18 shots a game is pretty bad, and he's no longer a 40% 3PT shooter, down to 32%. He's average.
