QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Mar 31, 2015 -> 09:17 AM) I agree they're picking and choosing the sin, but it's legal to not serve alcoholics, adulterers, thieves, etc. etc. In some states, it's illegal to not serve someone who is gay. Is the same baker that is refusing gay weddings, making cakes for divorcees second weddings? If yes, then there is 100% clarity in my mind that they are discriminating.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Mar 31, 2015 -> 07:53 AM) That's the key point. If it is a private ownership they can kind of do what they want. Although stupid and fiscally irresponsible, if a Christian baker did not want to make a cake for a Bah Mitzvah or a Muslim baker did not want to make a cake for a baptism, that is their right as that business owner to choose not to do it. Here is my problem with this whole idea. If we are really to accept that this is based on biblical Christianity somehow, and by someone's warped interpretations of the bible, you as a Christian can't serve anyone who is living a life of sin, I have news for you... Your business is going to suck, because your only potential customer is Jesus Christ himself.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Mar 31, 2015 -> 07:19 AM) The description on the Sox website says: So if you do not accept, I do not think you count in the same way as a regular season ticket holder who just chooses not to attend a game. The official attendance has always been based on "tickets sold" so my guess would be you are in "attendance" if you accept the ticket.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Mar 30, 2015 -> 10:16 PM) 2B, 3B, & RF may be question marks, but I wouldn't call them holes. Johnson & Garcia have legit upside, and Conor has been extremely effective against RHP. I think you could argue C is a hole if you don't believe Flowers can replicate his offensive output from last year and the #4 spot in the rotation is currently a hole, but that will likely be filled Rodon before June. I'm not sure I think Danks or Noesi as your #5 starter is really that bad. I think many posters on this site seem to think our competition is flawless when in reality they have as many question marks and/or holes as we do. It is really easy to look at the rest of the teams in the AL central and find some big holes. The Tigers pen is still a disaster, as is their team defense. The Royals are going to struggle to score runs again, and their starting pitching took a big hit. The Indians have the worst starting five out of the top four teams in the AL central.

QUOTE (SleepyWhiteSox @ Mar 30, 2015 -> 04:56 PM) You mean the ones that interviewed or showed interest in interviewing? Yup. Don't want to touch the program. Makes perfect sense. But thanks for doing the legwork in polling all potential coaching hires. There was more than enough interest to be able to hire a good coach. It was just another atrocious job by the AD. So who else was out there that wanted the job? Let's hear them all then.

Chuck Carlton ‏@ChuckCarltonDMN 31m31 minutes ago Hello MT @JonRothstein: BREAKING: VCU's Shaka Smart is in discussions with Texas about its head coaching vacancy, sources told @CBSSports.

That last shot looks like Carlos Lee's face.

Anyone watching 12 Monkey's? Great plot twist in the last episode. It has been a great series so far. I have never watched anything on SyFy of their new shows before, but the series has been excellent so far.

Gary Parrish ‏@GaryParrishCBS 14m14 minutes ago Sources have told @CBSSports that Rick Barnes is the priority at Tennessee. Just a matter of finalizing a deal.

QUOTE (bmags @ Mar 30, 2015 -> 02:39 PM) So do you guys look at the recent Israel election and think "oh man that's awesome" Seeing the crap that gets passed many times... Absolutely.

87-75, second place by 4 games to the Tigers.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Mar 30, 2015 -> 01:58 PM) The Sox value Micah Johnson as the 2B of the future. His value is best served in this organization. Sanchez on the other hand... I would be more worried if Johnson had a bad spring. At this point I think it is fair to say he has won the job fair and square. If he flops, we have other options in Sanchez, Beckham, Saladino, and Bonifacio.

Chicago White Sox ‏@whitesox 3m3 minutes ago Per Rick Hahn, Jake Petricka will start the 2015 season on the DL.

QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 30, 2015 -> 12:58 PM) But with Duke, if Kentucky decides to double team Okafor, it could create room for the guards. ND doesn't run their offense through Auguste like Duke does with Okafor, which created a lot of layups for Auguste but no kick outs to the perimeter. With that said, I don't think Duke would beat Kentucky, as their interior defense is abysmal. I don't know that they need to double Okafor.

Chuck Garfien ‏@ChuckGarfien 6m6 minutes ago Derrick Rose was full contact today at practice. Thibs says he looked good.

Daryl Van Schouwen ‏@CST_soxvan 2m2 minutes ago OF James Baldwin III, recently released by Dodgers, signed by White Sox and headed to Class A Kannapolis. Sox release JD Martin, Joe Savery

So sad.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Mar 30, 2015 -> 11:48 AM) who else? Beck is the only name that has been named so far... Dan Hayes ‏@CSNHayes 26m26 minutes ago #WhiteSox making another round of cuts. Chris Beck said he's among them. Lots of meetings. More to come.

Daryl Van Schouwen ‏@CST_soxvan 11m11 minutes ago Rodon: 'Whatever they need to see so I can be in position to pitch for them, so be it. If I have to wear my underwear inside out I'll do it'

QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 30, 2015 -> 11:32 AM) Cuts are happening right now, with Beck among them. Nice to see him pitch this late into camp, but this is zero surprise.

Vote in the poll, then add your overall record prediction to the thread. If you don't post your prediction, you officially deed the right to complain about how wrong everyone else was in the future.

QUOTE (SleepyWhiteSox @ Mar 30, 2015 -> 11:04 AM) Do you honestly think that there was nothing in between them and leitao? You really think that was the very best they could do? C'mon now. There was a chance to at least bring a little buzz to the program and ponsetto continues her streak of making the worst possible decisions she can. Anyways, doesn't matter. Being a DePaul fan has been like being in an abusive relationship. No use in even trying to be optimistic that it'll ever get any better after all this s*** so I'm done for the foreseeable future. Very possibly, yes. When you have mid-major coaches who don't want to touch your program, that is very telling to what the perception of the job is.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Mar 30, 2015 -> 11:03 AM) Are you saying their slash lines are in consideration for who should get the job? Quoting the original post with the stats in them, I don't consider them close, but if the front office did, I think Johnson's speed is a huge tiebreaker. I think their skills and line up construction are bigger factors then any non-awful stats.
