QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 8, 2010 -> 11:06 AM) Really, you think that'll change anything? All that will do is make it apparent to other states that they have another out if they cut taxes further. Or they could make it clear that you can't keep spending like... well... governmental bodies.

I guess we see why Borass does the talking for him...

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Mar 7, 2010 -> 05:04 PM) Not that surprising. SS is a pretty scarce position from a fantasy standpoint. Therefore making him more valuable than he really is on the field. If he can get back to his '08 level (avoiding the slow starts that's plagued him the last two years would be nice), he's probably a top 5-7 fantasy SS. Rarer than a guy like Jake Peavy who is going to get you wins, complete games, IP, SHO, K's and the like?

QUOTE (SleepyWhiteSox @ Mar 7, 2010 -> 11:44 PM) Yeah, it's alright. I wanted regular heinz yellow mustard but all they have on the table is grey poupon Went to Harold's last night. 1/2 mixed fried hard mild sauce on hit the spot. Solid. I made sure to pick up Mike's Chicken on Clark St when I was downtown last week. Those are my two favorite chicken spots in Chicago.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Mar 8, 2010 -> 08:20 AM) Apparently Xavier Nady is having some troubles with his (twice) surgically repaired arm. Hitting isnt a problem, throwing is very much a problem If he can't throw, there is no way he can hit at 100%.

QUOTE (elgonzo4sox @ Mar 7, 2010 -> 12:20 AM) 2009 was a snowout. But the next day, the sun was shining, and it was a beautiful opening day, with a White Sox winner. The Sox are smart to provide a 2-day window to get in the opening day game. Its not just the Sox. It is pretty universal scheduling technique.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Mar 7, 2010 -> 12:29 AM) I like him in the pen as our new Brandon McCarthy. It's a nice learning curve for a young pitcher. The thing is that McCarthy really feels his growth was stunted by his time in the pen. Would that happen to Hudson? Who knows.

I saw Red Eye last night and remembered I need to pick up fertilizer for the garden this year...

QUOTE (knightni @ Mar 6, 2010 -> 05:38 PM) I thought that this was funny. You too can own toy replicas of the White Sox coaching staff and front office! It gives a whole new meaning to choking your Greg Walker...

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 7, 2010 -> 07:06 PM) Sweet Lou says there is no way Starlin Castro starts the season in the majors. At least we can avoid the hype machine for a little bit. Not really. The longer he is in the minors, the longer the hype machine works. It is once he gets to the majors that the questions get answered one way or another.

Wow. Has that happened before?

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Mar 7, 2010 -> 10:03 AM) Great job JPN ! Something I noticed though. Sergios Santos is out of options so if he doesn't make the 25 man roster he won't end up in the Sox minors will he ? With his arm someone will pick him up. It all depends on the spring he has and what he shows to the scouts. If he has an awful spring, it might scare people away. If he has a great spring, and gets squeezed in a numbers game, that might inspire someone to take a shot at him. In a case like that, I would imagine we would see a trade late in the spring so that the Sox get something from him. The later it gets in spring, the better chance there is of no one claiming him because teams start to form their rosters.

That is such an odd set up for a conference tourney. It really kills the idea of an upset winner.

Conseco is a great place to see a basketball game if people have never been there. It is 10 times the venue that the UC is.

Boy going into next season with essentially the same O-line as last year could pretty well negate any gains they spent on free agents.

The sound you hear is Illinois circling the drain for four more years...

QUOTE (lostfan @ Mar 8, 2010 -> 12:21 AM) lol. if I was doing that I'd talk about all the things to do there etc. I just like to travel and the time share makes it easier. In other news, my friend's husband cursed me out in the middle of a facebook chat for no reason, hilariously. Long story short he never liked me and in his head he thinks I'm either trying to steal his wife or that she is prone to leave him for me (logical reasons this is not only not desirable, but not possible notwithstanding) and I guess he had enough. Called me all kinds of b****es, wanted my phone # so he could call me (after he deleted it from her phone) and curse me out. I was like yeah, I got better s*** to do than to give someone my number so they can curse at me and threaten me for some s*** they think I did that never happened. When I told my friend about it he said "what type of b**** n**** s*** is that from him?" lol. So give him the phone number of someone you can't stand!

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 7, 2010 -> 03:20 PM) It doesn't say anywhere whether or not he tipped the servers The guy just dropped about 10G's on random people in a bar. I think we can assume that is a fairly generous guy.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Mar 6, 2010 -> 04:22 PM) Please, a closer is a lot easier to replace then Joe Maur or Justin Moreneu. Hell, i could even argue that Baker contributes more to the team then Nathan. He's a good-to-great pitcher, but he gives you 5 innings a week if you play your cards right. THat team has other offense and the like to cover those guys. They have no one in the pen like Nathan.

I guess that means they kept Peppers away from Pippen...

QUOTE (knightni @ Mar 7, 2010 -> 12:04 PM) It makes you cooooool. I AM SITTING ON A HORSE AT MY TIME SHARE

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Mar 7, 2010 -> 10:58 AM) This should be an interesting game today. Hawks/Wings at 11:30 on NBC. Wings have been good since getting all their guys healthy. Well it could have been interesting... After that third goal got waved off, this team lost all concentration. I know Huet has been awful, but the defense didn't help him a bit in this one.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Mar 6, 2010 -> 03:46 PM) Flowers scored on a someone that looks like Nix single. Massive changes featuring Kenny Williams JR now in the outfield. Hopefully he does something this year.
