  1. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 11:20 AM) I think it's sort of a general worry that his rehab will take longer than expected since his injury is uncommon for pitchers. Last report though had him beginning strengthening/rotation exercises on the shoulder and on track to start throwing exercises by Jan 1. Awesome news.
  2. QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 11:39 AM) I love DP. I love it when you analyze.
  3. QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 11:31 AM) Carlos? Which game were you watching? I believe the looking both ways smiley means he was being sarcastic.
  4. The wait for Mannypalooza continues.
  5. Alex getting hot for us with Manny in the lineup = unfair for the AL.
  6. QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 10:46 AM) Rumors from where? I read his progress was coming along just fine. I'm sure it was just osmosis through people b****ing. I'll look forward to Peavy next year then!
  7. I've heard rumors that Peavy might not be ready to pitch next year... am I crazy?
  8. QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 10:32 AM) And what? Walker didnt believe in DUnn? E-Jax >> Dunn Also, from what I gathered while watching The Club, Kenny was the one who wouldn't part with Jackson.
  9. QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 10:08 AM) Goddamn, I never said acquiring him was bad, Ive been happy with getting Jackson the whole time. I just dont think he was worth what we paid, and I think it will hurt us financially in the next few years, big time. But you don't know what was requested. I'm sure KW tried to get him without Hudson. He had to pay the price to get a guy Coop believed in...
  10. QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 10:25 AM) Excited wouldn't even begin to describe my emotions if that happened. Therefore I'm not getting my hopes up. Exactly. Melo has been my favorite non-Bull (oh, what the hell, favorite NBA player) the past half-decade. This means he won't come here. The Bulls never get their guy.
  11. QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 09:48 AM) Just because you're not sure what you have in Hudson doesnt mean you trade him for that value. Edwin may have held alot of value to the White Sox, but that doesnt mean he had alot of value on the market. Thus, it was a fine idea to trade for him, just not at the price we paid. Obviously, you disagree, Im just saying I wouldve offered Holmberg and one of Flowers/Morel/Danks2, and maybe a throw in lower level guy. When you consider what Jackson makes next year, and the fact we didnt receive any financial help, I just cannot agree with the trade for what we gave up. Jackson's value was not worth that much. Trading Hudson, your one legitimate young MLB starter ready to start now, will hurt you in the long run because now you have a $54 million starting rotation next year, and if you trade one of those starters you will ahve to fill that hole somehow. Thus, youre forcing yourself to trade for a starter or have to sign an overpriced FA. When you consider the pressure he was under had Dan Hudson pissing down his leg and the fact that we're probably 7+ games out right now without that trade, then I don't see how anyone could STILL be complaining.
  12. QUOTE (TitoMB @ Aug 31, 2010 -> 10:44 PM) I'm sorry, but that is f***ing hysterical. Ahaha, I need to see this interview. Is there any video of it yet? It was on CSN yesterday, maybe check their website? The fact that Cora and Manny walked off laughing together is awesome. I think Manny is really going to fit in well, and hopefully he sees the task at hand and he and Ozzie become an incredible ass-kicking tandem and he hangs around next year as well.
  13. QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Aug 31, 2010 -> 06:09 PM) Yeah. Cowley the lead Drama Queen looking for a "scoop". Like he's breaking some story. Whatever. If you want informed, impartial reports watch the MLB Network. Not ONE mention as to Manny not playing as anything other than a baseball decision by the manager. The Chicago media just can't wait to create some crap to generate interest and call the gulliable fanbase into controversy. This is Ozzie imposing his authority. Nothing more nothing less. I like your posts. You should post more. That is all.
  14. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 09:04 AM) All right place your bets place your bets place yours bets: Mannys first AB with the White Sox, Hit, Walk, or Out? Prop Bet: Does Mannys first AB produce an RBI? First at bat is a homerun. Prop Bet: duh

    QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 09:13 AM) The only thing I disliked about T2 was that Arnold's character was too cheesy with the one liners. I also wanted him to be more bad ass by killing anyone who wanted to harm John Conner instead of shooting their knees or using tear gas. I liked that the T1000 scenes were very dark. That was under instruction of Connor himself, though. Arnold was about to pop a dude in the brain and young John (as his commander) told him no killing.

    QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 08:10 AM) Feel free to see it that way, I just think T2 was a lot more schmaltzy and shiny, and a lot less dark and dramatic, than T3. I feel T3 had very little drama, and horrible acting. I also feel that T2 had incredible acting, drama, and action, and the fact that it looked better and more realistic than a film made 14 years later is even more remarkable. I also loved how they tied John Connor's love of GnR together in T2 and Salvation.
  17. It sucks that I've been following along all season long and now have no way to get Manny on my roster in MLB 10: The Show.
  18. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 31, 2010 -> 08:52 PM) Ladies and Gentlemen, Edwin f***ING Jackson. I'm completely convinced.
  19. :notworthy :notworthy E-Jax AJ Juan Mannypalooza Rios awkward OF block!
  20. Good effort E-Jax. Hopefully this dogsh*t bullpen doesn't screw you.
