QUOTE (WHarris1 @ Jun 27, 2011 -> 10:31 AM) Give me JR over a "chemsitry guy" who can't put the ball in the hoop. As opposed to another guy who has to be benched for long stretches in important junctions of the game? No thanks. No more Boozers.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jun 27, 2011 -> 10:11 AM) That actually comes together pretty nicely. Honestly I wish the Hawks and Wings could be in the East, because there is nothing worse than the 9:30pm puck drop. But the reality is that there isn't really way to do that.

QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Jun 27, 2011 -> 10:12 AM) oo, I don't dig on swine. Tomato Pepper Beef sounds scrumtrilescent. What is it? Tomato and Peppers stewed in beef. http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/tomato-oni...00401626/print/

Politics brings out a special kind of anger in some people. Trust me there are people in here I would imagine having the same sort of reaction to George W Bush. As for me, I have never gotten the personal resentment that goes with the "other" party. Granted there are people I would seek out more than others, but I wouldn't pass up the chance to meet or receive personal correspondence from any President we have had so far.

QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Jun 27, 2011 -> 09:54 AM) Help me choose my lunch. http://gcrestaurant.com/Menu.html Notes: I don't like shrimp. I usually get Generals or Orange chicken, although today I'm kind of feeling wild and am heavily considering some sort of beef. What is typically a popular beef dish at a Chinese place? I always test a Chinese place by their Tomato Pepper Beef.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 27, 2011 -> 09:53 AM) Did anyone see the article in Sunday's Trib? Richmond's uncle calls out Jerrence Howard and NBA scouts. claiming that Richmond is better than Irving. Richmond's dad has been playing damage control since then. Ugh. Those are the kind of people that ruin their kids lives.

QUOTE (Disco72 @ Jun 27, 2011 -> 09:42 AM) Sure...but I just don't think it'll help him "get his swing back" or whatever he needs to do to get back on track. A few more times on base might help the team win a game or two, but getting his swing back to his "usual" production would help the team win a lot more. In the long run, the most important thing is for "regular" Adam Dunn to come back. A lot of players have talked about the aspect of watching the ball to the bat in a bunt being good for their thought process. Right now the problem doesn't look like the swing, it looks like between the shoulder blades is what is wrong. Why not give a different look. Bunt, hit and run, something to change the mental approach up there and quit Adam from overthinking.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jun 27, 2011 -> 09:43 AM) I have been a big Morel supporter in his minor league days and coming into the season, but Brent should be hitting for better than a .577 OPS. Nine extra-base hits and one walk. That is terrible. Now his defense has been stellar, and going into the year, we knew there would be some growing pains with Brent. But he is atrociously bad offensively. Brent seems to be a good worker, so I hope he can rebound, but he should be doing better. Like I said. I think Ozzie is doing a great job of trying to play the match ups with both of the Brent's. I'd like to see Lilli 3-4 times a week, but I think Morel has been about right.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Jun 27, 2011 -> 09:32 AM) When the alternative is a strikeout, it's an improvement Exactly. I don't want him bunting, but I don't want him striking out 250 times more.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jun 27, 2011 -> 09:15 AM) Kinda interesting. http://www.cnbc.com/id/43547482 Ugh. So we are out about $2 million on this? That sucks.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jun 27, 2011 -> 09:14 AM) Come on, Denver had the veterans and championship aspirations and Smith was just as big as an asshat as he always was. yeah, I am not really interested in Smith again.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jun 27, 2011 -> 08:36 AM) the article you quoted seems to think Bankruptcy is not a valid option for him. We will see. I really dont see McCourt pulling this kind of money within the next week to make payroll. MLB is gonna auction one of the marquee franchises in the league, that is just unreal This bankruptcy is going to be a halt to that for the time being. I don't think MLB can seize the team while in bankruptcy.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jun 26, 2011 -> 08:35 PM) I see a 2nd member was added.....Happy Birthday Mr Long one to left! happy birthday Mr Long One just doesn't sound right...

QUOTE (The Baconator @ Jun 27, 2011 -> 08:23 AM) David Ortiz has definitely done it a number of times, less of a bunt and more like "stick the bat out there in a half swing". I've wanted to see Thome and now Dunn do this for a while. And while Dunn is getting paid millions to hit home runs, it just isn't working for him now. It just makes sense to try ANYTHING to get on base at this point. If nothing else it would reduce that cluster on the side of the infield.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 27, 2011 -> 08:22 AM) The only question I have is...would a bankruptcy court have a problem with that? Depends on how it was done.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Jun 26, 2011 -> 09:41 PM) I could care less about being with Minnesota, as it's not the Stars. If they are going to have them in the NHL, it makes sense to try to build that rivalry back.

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Jun 26, 2011 -> 11:08 PM) I went on a company day this year and will never go back with full crowds. That is the only way to go. The whole waiting in line for hours for one ride thing blows. Especially for what it costs to go there.

QUOTE (JPN366 @ Jun 26, 2011 -> 11:38 PM) For the third time this year, C.J. Retherford has been released. This time by the Detroit organization. Any idea what the story is on him? He just seemingly self-destructed.

Very loudly.

Someone could delete it.

QUOTE (OilCan @ Jun 26, 2011 -> 07:51 PM) Make that Detroit, Columbus and quite possibly Nashville. Since they are all in the Eastern Time Zone, it would make sense. The NHL is dumber than s*** if they separate Chicago and Detroit. If they are going to redo things, it would be cool if they could somehow get Chicago St Louis, Detroit, and Minnesota all together.

QUOTE (flippedoutpunk @ Jun 25, 2011 -> 01:29 PM) Just imagine two pitbulls with rabies inside a cage, and one of the pitbulls has silicone breasts and is a whore and the other one hates the air she breathes. Which one is you?
