QUOTE (AustinIllini @ Sep 2, 2015 -> 07:17 PM) This is anecdotal evidence and in no way demonstrates a valid trend. My neighbor owns a Ferrari. That must mean everyone's neighbor owns a Ferrari. Luckily there is no way to notice that people at baseball games aren't paying attention...

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Sep 2, 2015 -> 05:08 PM) If you are sitting a row back from the dugout, a glove isn't going to do most people any good. Ability to react is minimal. Not to mention, it is baseball, majority of fans aren't watching every single pitch (especially in the regular season). The baseball experience, for most fans in attendance, includes the joys of catching up with the people you are going to the game with. So glove or no glove, reality is you have a higher percentage of people not paying attention then any other sport, imo. You shouldn't sit somewhere if you are in danger, and especially if you aren't going to watch the damned game.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Sep 2, 2015 -> 12:01 PM) As you can see in the PHT thread it seems like the SCORE feels the need to pound home the White Sox mistakes (Tannehill and Abbatacola) If you listen to that station you would believe the cubs were flawless and a lock for the world series and the White Sox were 35 games under. They are selling to their audience, nothing more. Now that they won't have the Sox back on the air, they don't even need to pretend to care about the White Sox.

2014 included.

Question for all of the prospect experts here... If Erik Johnson were still up for rookie status, where would he rate in the White Sox system rankings?

johnsickels ‏@MinorLeagueBall 32m32 minutes ago Don't forget about Chicago White Sox RHP Erik Johnson. Good rebound campaign in AAA http://www.minorleagueball.com/2015/9/2/92..._source=twitter …

NO idea if this is legit or not, but rumor is a deal of Gibson/Dougie for Gay and draft picks is possible. http://www.bullstimes.com/bulls-trade-rumo...cking-up-steam/

I admit it, if I am close to the action, I still bring my glove to games.

670 The Score ‏@670TheScore 18m18 minutes ago #Blackhawks have signed forward Joakim Nordstrom to a 1-year deal: http://cbsloc.al/1EzCX6o

The only description they have is what the officer himself called in as he was apparently investigating the three, and was going to investigate them further when the shooting happened. They are trying to get a hold of any potential surveillance footage that might exist around the area.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Sep 1, 2015 -> 01:56 PM) It's also a dating of the parchment that book is made of, not necessarily a record of when the ink was put down on paper. Either way, the date range from the carbon testing fits just fine with the book being written late in Muhammad's life or within a decade or so after his death. according to the NYT link just posted...

QUOTE (Lip Man 1 @ Sep 1, 2015 -> 09:50 PM) South: I suspect things like this have been going on for decades, all under the table. I respect your viewpoint but if that's what it takes to win, then so be it. This isn't a morality play, it's a business...and for the last decade basically business has been very poor. Mark That is disgusting. You can win without violations of the law. I have zero interest in being that team.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Sep 2, 2015 -> 09:17 AM) I mean. Ok, this might sound callous, but: Who cares? The guy was born 126 years ago, before cars were invented. He retired before electricity was common in homes. He died before polio was cured. Does the sixth generation of his family really need this? How can we possibly have evidence to overturn anything from that long ago? Is anyone not over this? The bid was instituted by his namesake museum IIRC.

Yes, because they didn't make a deal, they obviously didn't listen to any offers... Seriously?

QUOTE (ewokpelts @ Sep 2, 2015 -> 09:17 AM) Holmes is a fan. One of the few the sox have on the wcubs, I mean wscr There is a clear line between being a fan, and a writing and article for the papers. This looks like something that would have been posted to the White Sox facebook page.

Chris Emma ‏@CEmma670 5m5 minutes ago QB Zac Dysert is joining the Bears, his agent confirms. First reported by @adamjahns. Interesting player to watch on Thursday night.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Sep 1, 2015 -> 04:06 PM) Internet is freaking out thinking it is Castro because Baez is playing today in his place. If that really is the case, taking to twitter for something like that is a piss poor way of handling it. Apparently showing up your not teammates and manager publicly isn't a part of those standards?

Jeff Passan ‏@JeffPassan 3m3 minutes ago Edison Volquez said he had chickenpox as a kid. Yordano Ventura didn't but said he isn't worried. When asked why, he flexed his biceps.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Sep 1, 2015 -> 03:59 PM) Jake ArrietaVerified account ‏@JArrieta34 This is the show. We have certain expectations here. That's why you don't play. Bro...... What is that in reference to?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 1, 2015 -> 03:57 PM) A couple of those you've got me, but you also are pretty selective in what you bolded. For example, referring to $100 million, you bolded the line right next to this one but ignored this: They didn't sign anyone to a 5+ year deal though.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 1, 2015 -> 02:35 PM) Laurence Holmes ‏@LaurenceWHolmes 28m28 minutes ago Remember Samardzija numbers I shared with you? They might add up to him staying a #WhiteSox. Here's my column: http://cbsloc.al/1hvHa0s I am surprised no one has said this yet, but this article was embarrassingly devoid of any substance at all. It was a mix of innuendo and insults, with no corroborating evidence or information. It reads like a fan wrote it. Holmes should be embarrassed to have his name attached to that steaming pile of garbage.

Christopher Kamka ‏@ckamka 10m10 minutes ago Tonight will make 52 consecutive starts for Chris Sale caught by Tyler Flowers. All 26 last season, all 26 this season. #WhiteSox
