QUOTE (hitlesswonder @ Dec 30, 2010 -> 04:24 PM) An honest assessment is that the Bulls have no chance against Miami or Boston (unless injuries deplete the Celtics). The Bulls aren't even as good as the Knicks right now, so it would a be a delusion of grandeur to think they could take a series from one of the top 3 teams in the East (one of which being possibly the most talented team to play in the NBA ever). Unless Bulls ownership is wiling to go into the tax and acquire an all-star level shooting guard, the Bulls look like they will be mired in the good but not elite category for the foreseeable future.... The Bulls will beat the Knicks in the playoffs. That uptempo style won't work if the Bulls play a playoff style of basketball.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Dec 30, 2010 -> 03:40 PM) Personally, I'll go with Oney being an idiot who didn't think before he acted. He pretty said as much as you will ever hear him admit to in the interview on the Score yesterday.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 30, 2010 -> 03:21 PM) At what age do you no longer have responsibility for your children's actions? This a great point. If Ozzie is responsible for Oney, many of the people in this thread need to be putting their mommy's and daddy's in this thread so we can talk to your responsible party's.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Dec 30, 2010 -> 11:18 AM) The Heat don't match up well against a healthy Bulls. LeBron will have to guard Rose, leaving Deng open, and Boozer-Noah-Taj will devour Bosh and Ilgauskas. And the Bulls always play hard against the Celtics, and if KG is gone, I think they beat them. I would fear Camby-Howard though. The Bulls have no one who can guard James or Wade.

Quite right slick.

Oh no.

QUOTE (Tex @ Dec 30, 2010 -> 09:52 AM) Very interesting read. I enjoyed reading it last year and it has influenced how I teach US History. I enjoyed it up until the guy really got heavy into the social commentary. I loved the factual work, yawned at the rest.

Umm at his age?

I think it woke my youngest kid up.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Dec 29, 2010 -> 07:29 PM) Oney said he hasn't been in the White Sox clubhouse for over a year. He said specifically the crying incident didn't happen this year.

BTW, who was complaining the other day about nothing to talk about?

Rowand wouldn't need a Q-tip.

Loser

QUOTE (iamshack @ Dec 29, 2010 -> 07:18 PM) But that doesn't change the fact that Oney knows what he knows because of the position his father holds with the White Sox. It's not as if Oney would know Jenks otherwise. It's not as if the White Sox would have hired Oney otherwise. He knows what he knows because of who his father is, and if his father wants to keep his job, he might want to make sure details about the players' lives are not made public over Twitter. True, but it is a whole other level of wrong if Ozzie is coming home and saying "Hey guys, Jenks bawled like a little b**** today!".

Janitor might pay better...

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Dec 29, 2010 -> 06:50 PM) How do you know that Guillen told Oney this? Oney and Jenks like to party. In 2005 at the video unveiling Oney was there with Jenks and Cotts. I find it more plausible that Jenks and Oney were drinking buddies moreso than Guillen sitting around airing the clubhouse news over dinner. That's the same thing I wondered, because it does make a difference in this story. If Oney is talking about things that he saw, versus things that his dad told him, it changes things for me. I asked Oney on Twitter, and he claims all of the tweets are about things he observed himself.

Hell no he doesn't.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Dec 29, 2010 -> 04:06 PM) Oh come on, this is just getting sad. It doesn't matter what the international exchange unit is for oil. A lower value for the dollar relative to other currencies would mean that we'd get less oil per dollar whether oil was priced in dollars or in any other unit. What's really sad is that I wasted my time, again. You have no idea what you are talking about.

Cripes, where did you get your name from then?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 29, 2010 -> 03:59 PM) Once you get outside of the biggest currencies, they are pretty much dependent on the Dollar, the Euro or the Yen for their valuation because of either export or import levels to those market places. And the biggest factor being that crude oil is traded in dollars.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Dec 29, 2010 -> 03:51 PM) Then please point one out for me where oil prices are dropping. Because if oil prices are going up in all of them, then it can't be the "Weak dollar" that's doing it. Once you get outside of the biggest currencies, they are pretty much dependent on the Dollar, the Euro or the Yen for their valuation because of either export or import levels to those market places.
