He is filler for Charlotte, nothing more.

QUOTE (LDF @ Aug 7, 2015 -> 12:35 PM) you got a point, but most times they will not learn until something like this. In Kane's case it is actually worse, because he has already put himself into multiple bad situations over the years. This isn't even his first time being the spotlight of a public incident.

QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Aug 7, 2015 -> 12:17 PM) Okay, and these women want to have sex with Kane because he is rich and famous. Why does that make him any worse than them? He's using his fame and fortune to get laid, they're using they're looks. If it's consensual, who cares? It's a win-win. It makes him stupid if he is continually exposing himself and his career to this.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Aug 7, 2015 -> 11:07 AM) Yep. It's a very difficult thing to actually prove in court (plus the rape victim has to be willing to put herself through the scrutiny she'll face at every step), and a lot of times charges might not even be brought because it'd be too hard to get a conviction. Not to mention the court of public opinion where a significant amount of people who think that any time an athlete is accused, it is because she is a gold-digger.

QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Aug 7, 2015 -> 10:15 AM) Yea but he's also 180 pounds soaking wet with toothpicks for arms. Considering he can get the arm moving fast enough to throw 99 mph, I think he could throw a mean punch too.

QUOTE (bmags @ Aug 7, 2015 -> 10:34 AM) Listen, if given money, most of you would take advantage of people, assault strangers, cause your employer embarrasment, and be involved in rape investigation. Who among us could deny that? Duh. I'd still be doing it at 26.

QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Aug 7, 2015 -> 10:20 AM) I wouldn't be as bad as Kane (especially if this allegation is true), but I think almost anyone of us here would have done a lot of stupid s*** too if we were handed fame and millions of dollars at 20 years old. Except eventually most of us would grow out of it. He was handed his first 7 figure salary 8 years ago!

Great episode of Mr Robot. Really curious how Elliot gets out of what he said to his shrink, and how Wellick gets out of his rooftop visit.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Aug 7, 2015 -> 10:01 AM) I'm not saying that in the least. I've had my handful of drunk enough hookups and made some stupid decisions. Everything worked out fine. I agree 100% it's part of life. What people are failing to see or not grasping is Kane or any other athlete with that type of target on his back has to be WAY more careful. It's not about me or anyone else being upset he had sex, who cares. What I'm pissed about is being dumb about it and putting himself in a situation where he could be accused of something like rape, because he possibly hooked up with as total stranger who he has no idea about what she is capable of. It is like he is a high school kid, and needs someone to teach him about making good decisions.

QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Aug 7, 2015 -> 09:26 AM) I don't think Abreu has the demeanor to be a big fighter. He seems like more of a lover than a fighter. The guys on the team I wouldn't want to f*** with would be Samardzija, Garcia and Flowers. Sale is the team hot head.

QUOTE (LDF @ Aug 6, 2015 -> 11:10 PM) i hate to think of it, but i have a real nasty feeling some of those maybe trade bait for what this team needs. If that is the case, that is good news, because it means multiples of these guys are developing into major leaguers.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Aug 6, 2015 -> 10:14 AM) Sucks about Adolfo and Brennan both getting hurt. Love what the Z's are doing in AZL. Brennan has been snake bit. Hopefully he gets some better luck going for him, and this isn't serious.

QUOTE (MnSoxFan @ Aug 7, 2015 -> 08:38 AM) Sox have a good report with Charlotte. They deserve to have a chance to compete. No reason to rush pitchers. They also seem to get good nibbles on pitchers trying to recover their careers, which can be a life line to some cheap lottery tickets.

Very sad to see this. Even if he is innocent, Patrick Kane needs to be smarter than his. If he isn't innocent, then he can rot in hell.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Aug 7, 2015 -> 07:05 AM) I'd love to see Abreu get plunked. Who wouldn't? Or maybe we could get Chris Sale suspended again, that would be awesome, right?

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Aug 7, 2015 -> 08:35 AM) Matt Spiegel used this piece as the center of an article he wrote for the Daily Herald yesterday. That is freaking awesome. Also a RT from Chuck Garfein. Those are some pretty heavy hitters in the White Sox world.

QUOTE (dasox24 @ Aug 6, 2015 -> 11:14 PM) Phenomenal picture. The faint skyline in the background is fantastic. That is a view of Chicago from my home town, Michigan City Indiana, looking across about 30 miles over Lake Michigan. And thanks to everyone for voting!

Gatlinburg isn't beach, but the mountains and the town are great for kids.

This is my picture taken up at Washington Park a couple of weeks ago. It has been entered into the Weather Channel's "Its Amazing Out There" contest. Check out the link, if you like, please give a click and vote for my pic! Thanks. http://bit.ly/1TCpOx4

It is incredible that FS is the first full interview with this guy. That is awesome.

I'll take it.

WALK OFF WALK THIS WAY!

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Aug 5, 2015 -> 04:27 PM) They really want an Avi double play ball. He is not an easy guy to double up.

The double intentional walk.
