Fox Lake Cop shot and killed
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.

Joe Jackson reinstatement request denied
QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Sep 2, 2015 -> 11:54 AM) http://www.chicagonow.com/soxnet/2015/09/s...atement-denied/ The question in my mind would be IF Jackson ever was cleared by MLB, would the veterans committee members hold the past against Jackson's resume, much like HOf voters have done to Barry Bonds and Mark McGwire.

The Republican Thread
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...

White Sox Futility Under Williams/Hahn/Ventura
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.

Joe Jackson reinstatement request denied
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.

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

Sox have tried to sign Samardzija to a long term deal
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.

2015 Cubs Catch-All thread
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?

Robertson Claimed by Yankees, pulled back by WS
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.

Sox have tried to sign Samardzija to a long term deal
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.

White Sox Futility Under Williams/Hahn/Ventura
QUOTE (Lip Man 1 @ Sep 1, 2015 -> 03:29 PM) All's fair in love and war. If this was a quid pro quo deal more power to Epstein. Wish the Sox were smart enough to do something like that. Mark I don't know about anyone else, but I would rather the Sox not break laws and rules. The Wilder fiasco was enough for me. I can't believe anyone would seriously endorse that sort of thing.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Sep 1, 2015 -> 02:22 PM) If the Hawks do trade Kane, I would like to see a sportswriter ask McDonough why Bobby Hull is so proudly paraded around given his history? Hull is a loudmouthed dirtbag.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Sep 1, 2015 -> 02:03 PM) Yep, but if the Hawks win the cup again with him on the roster it will be, "SOO glad we never traded Kane," again. I'd rather not win a cup than have a rapist on my favorite team.

Joe Jackson reinstatement request denied
QUOTE (bmags @ Sep 1, 2015 -> 01:57 PM) That is such bull. Would anyone watch baseball if there was serious doubt over whether the games were fixed? Would you watch baseball again if it turned out the White Sox lost in the world series because the umpires were paid off? People certainly answered whether they would watch baseball if there were players on performance enhancers. The difference on the real "integrity of the game" is so gigantic it's not even debatable. There is a large difference in logic and motivation here. With steroids, it was all about guys trying to win. With gambling, the chances is there that someone is trying to lose. That makes a very big difference to me in terms of punishment. Someone who is purposefully trying to lose should never be allowed to play professional baseball again, period.
