Paul Konerko Re-Signs with White Sox
QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Dec 8, 2010 -> 10:31 AM) I wonder how insistent the Sox are on PK taking 2 years. Maybe something creative can be worked out for the third. Boom!

Finals Week
QUOTE (dasox24 @ Dec 8, 2010 -> 03:05 AM) Oh good, so I'm not the only one procrastinating? It's 3am and I still haven't started a paper that's due tomorrow. I'm an idiot... I just finished a marketing assignment due tomorrow. Now I'm working on a 10 minute presentation & power point for a film culture class. After this, I have 3 2-page analyses to do and then go over another 4-6 minute presentation for tomorrow. Yay.

Winter Meeting Buzz
QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Dec 8, 2010 -> 02:28 AM) Paranoid much? Nope. QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Dec 8, 2010 -> 02:31 AM) Seriously, who in their right minds spends 10 million dollars to hurt a team not even in your own division? I don't think it was directly to screw KW over, obviously. But I could see it having gone through his head.

Cubs sign Pena
QUOTE (chunk23 @ Dec 8, 2010 -> 02:01 AM) Low low low BABIP last year, yet still had a nice Iso. He should bounce back nicely against the NLCentral's terrible pitching. He hit .186 on the road last year with a .222 BABIP. He hit .207 at home with a .221 BABIP.

Winter Meeting Buzz
QUOTE (chw42 @ Dec 8, 2010 -> 01:43 AM) Jim Hendry just had to ruin the 1B market didn't he? Ugh. I hate to play conspiracy theorist but the Cubs are completely rebuilding and are on the verge of shedding Ramirez, Silva's and Fukudome's contracts, as well as Dempster and Zambrano's after 2012. They aren't competing any time soon. On the other hand, we nabbed Peavy and Dunn from them. Could Hendry be doing it to f*** KW over?

Heyman confirming deal is done between Cubs and Pena.

Paul Konerko Re-Signs with White Sox
If Carlos Pena and his .732 OPS are about to get 10 million, this could be bad news.

Apparently the Cubs and Carlos Pena are close on a 1 year, $10 million deal. Wow.

Simply because I need to find other way to prevent myself from being productive. This is my last real finals week. Wow.

Official 2010-2011 NCAA Basketball Thread
QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Dec 8, 2010 -> 12:21 AM) Yep, but the one thing that would have me somewhat concerned if I was an MSU fan is that this team is made up of basically all JRs and SRs. They shouldn't be struggling like this right now. They're averaging 18 TO's a game to boot.

Official 2010-2011 NCAA Basketball Thread
QUOTE (danman31 @ Dec 8, 2010 -> 12:11 AM) They do this every year. Ranked top 5 preseason, lose some games out of conference, win the Big Ten, make the Final Four, repeat. Oh I'm aware of their tendencies, doesn't mean it's guaranteed to happen every year. And that's part of my problem with all the MSU fans I have to deal with daily. I respect Izzo, but after that I can't stand anything about that school and it's fans. They make it seems like it's ok to lose games all the time. If I had a $1 for every time I heard "They'll be fine in March" I'd be a thousandaire.

Paul Konerko Re-Signs with White Sox
QUOTE (Cali @ Dec 7, 2010 -> 06:59 PM) More and more I'm rooting for DLee and some bullpen arms.... I'm kinda rooting for this too. It'd be pretty cool to have him back in Chicago on the South Side. I was the last person in the Chicago media to interview him on his last day as a Cub.

Inaugural Soxtalk Winter Meetings & Drinkathon
I too would be interested in attending, but only if I can see if Heads is really ferociously cute.

Winter Meeting Buzz
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Dec 7, 2010 -> 06:36 PM) Well, I can find objections to 3 of those. Santos is still something of a newbie at this, as is Sale, and Pena has been below average. Santos did quite well for a newbie, and another off-season and ST as a reliever can't hurt. Sale was awesome and there's a reason he went so high in the draft. Pena was below average overall, but he was HUGE for us in an unexpected long relief role. And there's no denying he has great stuff.

Winter Meeting Buzz
The bullpen panic is funny to me. We have 3 legitimate relief options in Thornton, Santos, and Pena, and a 4th in Sale. Yet people are saying we have 1 reliever.

Paul Konerko Re-Signs with White Sox
QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Dec 7, 2010 -> 06:27 PM) in the last two years PK has more than twice the number of plate appearances. Who cares about early in their careers? DLee is injury prone, PK is not I'm sorry, but you are incredibly mistaken.

Andrew Miller anyone?
I love moves like this. He and Maybin were the main pieces that allowed DET to get Cabrera and now they're both out of Florida. If I was a GM, I'd go to town on low risk, high reward guys.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Dec 7, 2010 -> 01:48 AM) Talked to the girl that saw my penis the other night. Described it a "ferociously cute." I have no idea what that means. She may or may not be disappointed by it's size, but she's intrigued. Pursue and conquer.
