QUOTE (IamtheHBOMB @ May 12, 2010 -> 08:25 PM) Does anyone posting in this thread not want LeBron on the Bulls? The guy is a showboating egomaniac. I would rather give it a shot with Bosh or Wade as they aren't so f***ing obnoxious. I wouldn't miss the inevitable, unending comparisons of Jordan-James either. I don't think anyone is going to say LeBron is more likable than any of the other guys, but he is also the best man to bring another title to the Bulls.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ May 12, 2010 -> 07:29 PM) Apparently Tom Paciorek will be doing color along side Ed Farmer for the KC series filling in for DJ. So you'll have Hawk and the Big Hurt on TV with Farmio and Wimpy on the radio. What a bizarre weekend of White Sox broadcasts. I don't know if my brain can handle that mix.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ May 12, 2010 -> 07:13 PM) OMG the Canadians are up 4-0 in the 2nd period. They are gonna shock the world AGAIN. Washington AND Pittsburgh? They'll be quite a story if they made it to the finals. Never seen a team with so much heart playing out their minds. (especially Halak) So much for needing a superstar scorer type...

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ May 12, 2010 -> 04:29 PM) Here goes my two cents... I agree with SS2K in that you need to see where we go from here. The confusing part to me is ok MIB is dead that is why they show us the Jack/Kate/Locke scene from season one but then how is his knowledge passed on to build the wheel and what not. I wish we would have gotten a deeper sense of this. I did like the black/white - science/faith storyline shoved in our face. The Claudia group (they were speaking Latin and Claudia is a Roman name) were not the first people to come to the island as the "mother" gave us the old "it always ends the same" line. I think she could take the form of smokie thus her killing and pillaging the "Others" from this episode. The mother is egyptian as the game she gave MIB was egyptian and I think the weaving was egyptian thus the hieroglypics, statue, etc. were already on the island before last night's episode. My problem with this was, how did she get her role. One thing I forgot was smokie and Ben had hte run in last season at the temple. I wonder why smokie did not kill him there.......... He needed Ben to kill Jacob.

All right you two, knock off the personal stuff.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ May 12, 2010 -> 02:40 PM) Alex Rios is just a joy to watch out there. Still laugh when I see the threads last year calling him a waste/KW's worst move ever, etc.. No joke. I kept saying that all you had to do was look at the rest of his career to know that last year was the fluke.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ May 12, 2010 -> 01:29 PM) Cowley: "Rauch and his tatoos are out for the save - all 6-douchie-11 of him. Talk about a guy that didn't fit in the Sox clubhouse. Big-league-itis." Hmm, I figured they would have gotten along well.

Come on, let's get to Rauch

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 12, 2010 -> 02:06 PM) I think they would...but I doubt they'd consider moving him for Luol Deng, and we're not going to be able to offer up anything else of significant value. Not unless guys like Taj and JJ get talked about too, along with draft picks.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 12, 2010 -> 01:00 PM) Great...then we'll just play Jones mooooo...oh, yeah, right. Yep.

Nice inning for John... where have those been since the first?

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ May 12, 2010 -> 12:53 PM) The Bulls could be ok. James can easily play the 4 and the Bulls could have a ton of match-up problems. The team would still have a need for an outside shooter off the bench though. I do think Deng would be a good option to move though for a more natural 2 guard or another big man. Deng doesn't have the foot work to guard a two. The Bulls do need another sniper for sure, but those aren't that hard to find.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ May 12, 2010 -> 01:51 PM) Sad to say that that flyout was as good as anything we've seen out of Carlos in a while. In Chicago that ball is five rows deep.

Damn this park plays like the Grand Canyon right now.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ May 12, 2010 -> 12:30 PM) It sounds like it might be Hinrich though. And it is quite possible that if we got LBJ, the 2nd signing would not necessarily be a max guy. It could be Bosh taking a small discount, it could be the Bulls putting together a trade for Jefferson, etc. Deng is almost necessary to move as he won't have a position if LeBron comes here.

Going with the sci-fi angle, I wouldn't be surprised if they go with Atlantis.

Rios is so unbelievably smooth out there. He was just there in perfect time, but it never looked like it was hard for him.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 12, 2010 -> 12:10 PM) That likely means that they have a sufficient supply of skilled worker visas to meet their demand. There's not nearly enough of those to meet business demand, nationwide. let alone the demand for less-skilled workers. Yet we have 10% national unemployment, and about 20% when you factor in everything. And lets not forget that the rates are highest amongst the lowest educated brackets... In otherwords, I don't buy it.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 12, 2010 -> 11:56 AM) If the Bulls did a sign and trade for Bosh, would they still have cap room to make a max offer to LeBron? It depends on the salary differences. If they can trade away the same amount of salary that they sign Bosh to, they would be OK. Because the Bulls are under the cap, they don't necessarily have to do that.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 12, 2010 -> 11:28 AM) BTW, I should re-state this. The right move for the Bulls is not to prioritize. The right move for the Bulls is to call up the agent of Lebron, Wade, and Bosh the second you're allowed to make an offer and offer a max deal to each one of them. Start the recruiting process after that. But if Chris Bosh is ready to sign with you 10 seconds into the FA period, and Lebron wants to take 4 weeks to make his decision...you sign Bosh and you walk away 100% content. Ditto Wade. You do not wait and risk walking away with nothing. Forget that. All of the players on the team should be calling these guys today. With the way that the NBA is set up today, the players are the ones who run the league. If Taj is LeBron's buddy, he should be on the phone non-stop trying to convince him to come here. Guys like Rose and Noah should be recruiting their asses off as well. They should realize that their futures are on the line as well.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ May 12, 2010 -> 11:28 AM) I have a very strong fear that that was the end of any pre-modern times island story. I think that's all they are going to give us. Which was a big mountain of dog s***. They dropped the creativity ball so hard on that one. I could have written a more interesting and entertaining back story for the 2 biggest (and most important) characters of the last 2 seasons (if not the show). And I don't buy that the writers knew who adam/eve were. Adam/Eve were a couple, not a mother and her "son." What a crock of poop. They already tied it back to the modern times in the last couple of minutes. There is no way that they can ditch the modern time, that is the crux of the entire story. Everything else is just background.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 12, 2010 -> 07:06 AM) http://www.kansascity.com/2010/05/11/19402...on-getting.html Not exactly the same result that we got out of Josh Fields. Wonder if they'll go the same direction with Dayan Viciedo (LF/RF) at some point...I just don't know about Dayan's height and being RHed at 1B, it seems he's better suited for a corner OF spot, his mobility is limited but he has a cannon for an arm. Wow, they are dead if Soria falls apart.
