QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Aug 11, 2015 -> 01:31 PM) I think all that ss2k5 is saying is that worrying about the impact on the salary cap of a sports team of an ongoing rape investigation is a little callous. Exactly.

Adam Schefter ‏@AdamSchefter 38m38 minutes ago Jets have cut LB IK Enemkpali, the player who sucker-punched QB Geno Smith, broke his jaw in two places and sidelined him 6-10 weeks.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 11, 2015 -> 01:20 PM) So what's your excuse for concerning yourself with the rape investigation? My guess is the people in law enforcement are worrying about that. I am also not engaged in trying to figure out the details for the investigation.

QUOTE (LDF @ Aug 11, 2015 -> 12:58 PM) one doesn't need to be jaded, this whole process is in the hands of the law enforcement agency, and the world continues to spin. the hawks have a problem on top of Kane crap. does that mean the hawks stop their course of business??? so the hawks have a problem starting in at least 30 days, when the camp opens up. aug 20's + /- the preseason games start and are the hawks have their roster close to being filled. then there the Kane issue, is he going to be with the team??? will he be able to travel b/c of this hanging over this head??? so again, time does not stop. The people in the business can worry about it, but seeing as my paycheck isn't written by the Hawks, I won't.

QUOTE (LDF @ Aug 11, 2015 -> 12:42 PM) yeah you are prob right in this. i am trying to go that extra mile not to form any opinion. on a side note, do you think he will be put on administrative leave pending legal investigation? if the hawks doesn't fix the salary cap now, they can use the AL as a temp fix, sign kuger and trade whom ever. I am not nearly jaded enough to try to figure out what the salary cap implications of a Patrick Kane rape suspension are. First and foremost is trying to figure out if a crime was committed.

He has the Detroit Lions calling him I am sure...

Don't know how long they have had this, but now Google Maps has view INSIDE of certain buildings.

Milwaukee Brewers @Brewers GM Doug Melvin and #Brewers announce that Melvin will transition into an advisory role with the Club. More coming at http://Brewers.com . Tom @Haudricourt Attanasio made it clear that he considers Craig Counsell the team's manager and GM candidates will be told so.

QUOTE (LDF @ Aug 11, 2015 -> 11:29 AM) pls remember everyone is still innocents until.... well until they are not, according to the law of the land. fans are come to a decision rather quickly. i am being a stick in a mud, well b/c he is a hawk and b/c the off season is screwed up by the fiasco a the trading deadline. Patrick Kane has dug his own grave in the court of public opinion with his history of stupidity off of the ice. In a case like this, there usually isn't much hard evidence to come out, so waiting for that moment of clarity will probably never happen.

QUOTE (bjm676 @ Aug 11, 2015 -> 10:44 AM) Where can I get the Kool-Aid that he is drinking? Or a 7 figure paycheck...

Martin Scorsese and Leo DeCaprio are collaborating on "Devil in the White City". It was a great book, I will see the movie for sure. http://variety.com/2015/film/news/leonardo...ity-1201567113/

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Aug 11, 2015 -> 09:23 AM) rape kits/exams can confirm more than just sex occurred, with rape there's often trauma found that is not common to consensual intercourse. And we all know Patrick Kane shies away from contact...

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Aug 10, 2015 -> 05:51 PM) Sandy Alomar has not been passed over many times. He retired in 2007 and began coaching in instructs in 2008. Got a more regular coaching gig in 2010 and has been a bench coach since 2012. He was a final candidate in Toronto / Chicago (Cubs) / Boston / Cleveland. When he even got chances for some of those jobs he was practically as raw as Ventura. I would not put him in the same camp as Martinez, who was out of baseball much longer prior to restarting coaching. I think Martinez got into coaching in 06. Note: I hadn't realized Martinez, really hadn't even been coaching all that long himself. So for Alomar that is four times. To me, that is many.

QUOTE (Iwritecode @ Aug 11, 2015 -> 09:12 AM) IIRC, they are speaking Swedish. I have a habit of watching with the CC on and it mentioned it. Thanks for that. That is good to know.

I tried, but it crashed for me.

Scot Gregor ‏@scotgregor 19m19 minutes ago Lot of good stuff from #WhiteSox GM Rick Hahn today. Didn't come out and say it but don't be surprised if he makes waiver trade or two Good question to Hahn from @ESPNChiSox about job security. Hahn said fear of losing job is not a motivator in how he operates

QUOTE (bmags @ Aug 10, 2015 -> 04:13 PM) Pretty good point.

QUOTE (bmags @ Aug 10, 2015 -> 03:09 PM) So, I think I missed the big episode for him somehow. That scene where he randomly fires people seemed really over the top, but makes sense more now. There is a big reveal that still needs to happen for him. There is something big there we don't know about.

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Aug 10, 2015 -> 03:29 PM) Have we heard anything about Sox players clearing waivers? Alexei, maybe? Haven't seen a thing.

QUOTE (SCCWS @ Aug 10, 2015 -> 03:03 PM) I did too but once TB passed over him as well, I assume he has some shortcomings. Next candidate He and Sandy Alomar have been passed over so many times, you can't help but wonder what fatal flaw teams are seeing, that we aren't. It reminds of the Thibs situation to be honest.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 10, 2015 -> 02:35 PM) Five winning seasons in eight years. Not half bad! I'd bring him back with a clause he's fired if a committee of owner, GM and 2-3 others deem any of his public statements socially unacceptable. As a White Sox fan I found his opening campaigning for a contract extension with a year left on his deal and his team collapsing, then opening courting another job during the season WAY more troubling then any of his personal political views. His political views don't concern me nearly as much as his penchant for putting his own self in front of the team.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Aug 10, 2015 -> 02:16 PM) Only reason really would be to help our place in the standings for a better draft pick. I can't see Masterson wanting to come here, if he has a choice. Maybe at the start of 2016, but right now it doesn't really make sense. With us he has no chance at starting. It isn't often you can say "worse than Danks" and it be true...
