QUOTE (The Critic @ Aug 17, 2009 -> 09:53 AM) I played goal in a mens' floor hockey for a couple years and never wore a cup. I felt like it hurt my flexibility - of course, a slapper to the junk would have seriously hurt my flexibility, too. It was a very stupid decision, but luckily it never came back to haunt me. Well, we're talking ice hockey vs floor hockey. That puck would likely remove my testicles from my body if correctly placed.

Strasberg's a tool to pass on $17 million if he does. That's so much damn money.

Contreras doesn't seem to start to suck until the 4th inning. This screams productive, long-reliever to me. If you're paying him, which you would be, there's absolutely no reason to deal a guy who can still dial it up to the low-mid nineties and has decent off-speed stuff. Contreras just needs to head to the pen.

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Aug 17, 2009 -> 09:19 AM) Lots of foot injuries for the Sox this year. Maybe they need more massages on the feet. Send in your application.

I went to Goose Island in Lincoln Park this weekend for lunch and to enjoy their beverages. Red Felt came out as a standout, but every brew I tried was quite good.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 17, 2009 -> 09:51 AM) can you play people through Wi-Fi? I havent looked at it closely yet Nope. Which makes no sense. However the depth of the games and the Wii-Motion Plus really makes it worthwhile.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 17, 2009 -> 09:17 AM) Oh we will.

Obviously I wanted to see District 9 this weekend, and will do so with some buddies this week. That being said, I owed one to my wife and saw "The Time Traveler's Wife". It was a f***ing good movie. I held back the tears, too. Call me what you will, though, that movie was great.

Wii Sports Resort is a f***ing blast.

I got clocked in the sac with a slap shot, and I was wearing a cup and it still hurt like hell. I can't imagine not having been wearing a cup.

For the record, I was for and championed Pods getting his number back from Josh Fields (when you all thought Josh was a big part of our future), but I am not for Freddy getting his number from Gavin. That being said, what number does he get? 33? 43? 24? 1? 00?

He is teh suck.

I can't beleive we lost that f***ing game.

The timing of this really does suck.

QUOTE (rangercal @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:28 PM) Steve, great read. I can honestly say that some of these articles are more informative than anything in a Chicago newspaper (Is that saying much?). Thanks man. I swear newspapers are soooooo uninformative when it comes to sports analysis, there is none.

We got our first ninth inning win of the season the night before, and came back and sucked it up. It didn't matter.

Holy s***. He's epic.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:17 PM) I wonder if Getz is headed to the DL? I hope not.

KW just throwing that cash around!

QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:13 PM) He won his teams at the QB position. His most valuable position is that of a QB. Was he a good fantasy Qb? No, but I think it is definitely overstated when people say he was never actually good. I think you have that backwards. He was more valuable in fantasy than to his team. Regardless, he's been out of the game for multiple seasons, there's no way he expects to compete for a job right away.

The Bulls are going nowhere fast.
