QUOTE (greg775 @ Nov 19, 2010 -> 12:47 PM) If they tore it down and built a new Wrigley on the exact same spot, wouldn't that take years upon years? They'd have to knock it down, clear out all that debris, get the land all ready and build a new park again?? With Chicago weather delays? Wow. If they already have renovation designs, they need to renovate right there. Don't you think the city has to help out some? Moving the Cubs to some other location to build a new park like somebody said would be a disaster. The park and the experience is a the whole Cub experience isn't it? Isn't it a historical landmark? That makes "tearing it down" impossible.

Just don't lie to me.

f*** the rules, that is what I say.

Damn you all and your rules!

Ah, would that be the ISmell?

QUOTE (dasox24 @ Nov 19, 2010 -> 11:50 AM) I saw this on ESPN the other day. Ridiculous. Jeter is worth nowhere near that as a player, and at 37 years old coming off his worst season, isn't likely to get any better. It must be nice to have so much money that you can afford to pay a player that much money for his charisma, leadership, and being a fan-favorite rather than his skills. Oh, and I really can't believe he wants more. He has no leverage at all. No one else is going to offer him anything close to that. And the crazy thing is that it isn't like he was underpaid before, and the Yankees are just making up for that. He is coming off of a 10 year $190 million contract. He has been overpaid for years now.

QUOTE (T R U @ Nov 15, 2010 -> 02:31 AM) im gonna go ahead and be pretty ballsy and declare that there is no chance the Bears beat Miami Thursday.. Weve lost to Baltimore, New England, New York Jets, and Pittsburgh.. and shoulda beat Pitt but the refs screwed us over.. that's pretty much 4 of the best 5 teams in the NFL right there with Atlanta being the other.. It doesn't matter if Thigpen is playing QB, he can do plenty enough to win the game with the way our defense has been playing and my expectancy that Nolans blitzing is going to have a field day on Cutler.. QUOTE (iamshack @ Nov 19, 2010 -> 11:36 AM) I believe it was something to the effect of "there is pretty much no possible way the Bears can beat the Dolphins..."

I can't see the egos involved here being willing to bury the hatchet.

But apparently Jeter wants more years and more money.

XoXo's wouldn't not be forthcoming either way.

QUOTE (Tex @ Nov 19, 2010 -> 09:29 AM) I was hearing today that amid the giddyness of Republicans being able to overhaul the health care bill comes the sobering reality that plans are already underway to comply. The expense of complying, then changing to something new, could be a nasty little surprise to some folks. Also What does it say about an industry that is against a law that would dump millions of new paying customers in their laps? To be fair, most of the customers would only be "paying" in the sense that taxpayers would be paying for them.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Nov 19, 2010 -> 09:34 AM) From your Morning Phil in Chicago Tribune today: 2. Are the White Sox willing to trade pitching to create some payroll flexibility? That seems to be the case, with Gavin Floyd's name making the rounds at the GM meetings Wednesday. The Colorado Rockies are among the teams with a reported interest in Floyd. They have two pieces the White Sox are missing -- a young catcher with power in Chris Iannetta and a left-handed-hitting third baseman in Ian Stewart. The Sox would try to interest Colorado in utility man Mark Teahen and reliever Scott Linebrink. I hope we don't start tearing down our strengths. Floyd is a great talent and we look at someone else's youth especially at catcher, which makes you wonder if the Sox have given up on Flowers? I would rather they trade Peavy, who has been a dismal flop with injuries and is iffy in a return. But, of course no one would be willing to take that chance I am sure If we could move Floyd and Teahen/Linebrink for Ianetta and Stewart, I am in.

Lame kings would read that book

Illiad?

Good for imaginary characters, they have been discriminated against for too long. Roger Rabbit is right!

Damn it, I wonder if she is in the witness protection program?

Allah would, as long as there were not TV cameras present.

You are kidding me?

Jesus Miami was god awful last night. I know the offensive problems with injuries, but the defense wasn't really much better. The Bears managed to run for over 100 yards, which should tell you everything.

Why so uncharacteristic?

umm, that's not very nice.

Sorry.
