Machado signs with Padres 10/300
Wait, so is he about to sign elsewhere? Clark said he'd delete his account if/when Manny signs elsewhere.

Pending White Sox Move? (*May contain partially digested news)
I would have zero problem bringing in Jones and Britton if it means Machado comes along. I wanna give Britton a look anyway, and, i know its kinda poo pood, Adam Jones from all I've seen/read/heard is a great leader. Having him around the young guys for a cpuple years could be beneficial. Jones as a bridge to Robert is perfect to me. Also, have you guys looked at that orioles rotation the lasr few years? Yeeesh. It's not Machado, Jones, or Britton that made that team so bad.

Why is the world so cruel?
Surprised there isn't a thread on this, I don't know where to put it, but there was a mass shooting on the Vegas strip. 20+ dead, 100+ injured. How sad.

Who says we cant compete next year?
Where is Manny Machado in the projected lineup? I really wanna see the Sox spend this off-season. They have money, there are some really good young players out there, and their first round pick will be protected.

2017-2018 NFL Thread
I missed most of the game......Did the Bears play Howard and Cohen together in a 2 back set at all? What about Cohen split out wide as a receiver? Dude has really good hands and looks like he could be something....Bears need play makers out there.

QUOTE (bighurt574 @ Sep 6, 2017 -> 11:02 AM) Keith Law released his 2017 prospect of the year - Vlad Jr. The 7 runners up included Tatis (re-iterates that he'll be a top 10 prospect next year, with a Manny Machado comp) and Alec Hansen. http://www.espn.com/blog/keith-law/insider/post?id=7614 For those non subscribers, any other hitters on the list? How do they stack up to Eloy?

Fantasy Football
So with Ajayi and Parker out, I need a starting WR and a flex out of.....Amendola, John Brown, Cooper Kupp, C.J Prosise, or Kyle Jusyjck. Or do I go grab Evan Engram or Fiedorowicz. What says you? I think Amendola is a given, but the others are all big time boom or bust guys.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Aug 22, 2017 -> 04:25 PM) This guy is the greatest Indy worker of all time. Totally not overrated. https://mobile.twitter.com/KVR216/status/89...7330561/photo/1 Just to be clear, I'm 99% sure that isn't Adam Cole. Well, I take that back, he has wrestled for IWA a whooping 3 time. Once on a tryout show at age 19, and then 2 more when he was 21. He was still a "Green kid" back then. Adam Cole is fantastic. If the crowd latches on to saying "Adam Cole Bay Bay" he'll get over......He's also only 28, so he has a lot of wrestling left.

When is rock bottom of the rebuild: 2017 or 2018?
I'm hoping this year. I don't expect them to be world beaters out of the gate, but I am hoping Moncada, Lopez, and Giolito aren't terrible, and that Anderson and Rodon have good years in 2018. If they all have good years, they should be better than this years team, or at the very least better than these next few months. These next 2 months are rock bottom IMO.

What would it take - Machado/Harper
One helluva sales pitch. Money is there, and I think they will be open to use it, but you reallllly have to sell them on the future of the ballclub to reel one of them in. Wonder if Obama and Harper ever crossed paths in Washington. Get that man to help recruit him. Also....Albert Belle happened a billion years ago so there is precedent of Jerry handing out the biggest contract ever. Lol

**World Soxtalk Championship Wrestling Thread V**
Shows how much I've been watching lately. Lol. Good for those 2 though, they are both phenomenal in the ring. Jordan is a freak. How fun would a Jordan vs Lesnar match be. Have Lesnar put over Jordan and boom, he's a superstar.

**World Soxtalk Championship Wrestling Thread V**
Kinda lame but super intriguing to me. Jason Jordan could be a star if pushed right....... At some point I wanna see it lead to AA splitting and feuding.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jul 7, 2017 -> 07:20 PM) Ha. I don't watch ROH though. Unless someone wants to share their Fite log in. Not sure I'd like it that much anyway. Not same company as when Punk n Joe n DB n others. And I'll never be a fan of Chris Hero. Sorry ROH isn't what it used to be, but right now Cody Rhodes has been must see TV in ROH. Also.....Not liking Chris Hero is simply fat shaming lol

QUOTE (Brian @ Jul 4, 2017 -> 08:44 AM) Agree. No accident I fell asleep on couch after it. Will go back and watch Brock/Joe stuff. At the risk of sounding like a snob, after watching Evolve two weeks ago and NJPW this weekend, WWE is so inferior, although it has parts I enjoy. And to think, years ago I was the snob everyone gave s*** to for slobbering all over Indy talent. Welcome to my world, isn't it grand?

Todd and Melky
So where are some legitimate fits for these 2?

Kenny Omega is a wrestling god. Realllly hope he comes to WWE at some point soon. If he does, I really wanna see a Omega/Styles/Balor feud over the club. Well, actually make the club a thing first, and make an actually stable.....Then maybe have the 2 losers join forces creating a new club, and then have some stable wars.

Jeff Teague is also an underrated pick up by the T-Wolves. They're gonna be a fun team to watch.

How fun would it be if the Bulls got their hands on Michael Porter Jr and signed Boogie/Embiid/Kanter next year? PG- Dunn (Hope he develops) SG- Lavine SF- Porter PF- Markkanen C- Cousins/Embiid/Kanter
