QUOTE (fathom @ Nov 11, 2015 -> 01:34 PM) Problem is that the Chicago media now thinks it's the only way you can build a team. sadly that is for every sport and 90% of sports fans as well The Bears need to trade everyone for high draft picks

Yet another reason why hawk is out of it, he thought the outfield defense was one of the best in baseball going into the season.... How any scout they have thought Garcia was anything more than a below average is just plain bad scouting. They thought he could play center.....sigh

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Nov 9, 2015 -> 11:11 PM) To be fair he has been interviewed a few times over the last couple seasons, what he is doing with Jay is just padding the resume' He has turned down opportunities. Not certain who will have desirable jobs in the off season....

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 9, 2015 -> 01:09 PM) Historically when Theo has money, he throws around money. I am not certain he has six figure contract money and they need to figure out where Arrieta lands for them next year.

He should sue her for the EA Sports lost wages if there really was no case at all to be made.

QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Nov 5, 2015 -> 09:29 AM) And still in the court of public opinion he will stay be viewed as guilty by a large percentage of the population for the rest of his life. I think it is a non-story in about six months.

If it is to save money and let him go, bad move If it is to resign at 2 years $14M I'm ok If it is to let him go because they want to go in a different direction via a targeted trade or free agency I am ok as well

QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Nov 4, 2015 -> 02:25 PM) You almost get the feeling that someone just felt like playing army because they could. This kind of response wasn't warranted even if there were 3 suspects. I think the overreaction was due in part to the Texas shooting of the cop which I thought was just days prior.

QUOTE (Cknolls @ Nov 4, 2015 -> 09:24 AM) Can i ask what happens to everyone on a PPO PLus plan now, who, due to Cadillac tax, will no longer have that plan available to them, and will no longer have their hospitals and doctors anymore? I'll let you know as we are heading that way. $250,000 fine Our health plan is collectively bargained and by forcing the union to give up their Cadillac plan, the cost will come from somewhere. Also our rates have gone up an average of 8% a year for the last six years.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Nov 3, 2015 -> 05:07 PM) I've coached against HF for years. Scouted them multiple times this year. I'm taking them. I may be wrong but I can't pick against that team. Loyola is really, really good. They don't have that type of team speed though. HF is a monster. Home team wins that game. Loyola is a tough place to play, not sure why but they are crazy good at home and get beat on the road.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Nov 2, 2015 -> 12:41 PM) I hope it's Brother Rice and Homewood Flossmoor in the semis. Would be such an awesome game of contrasting styles. Soxtalk may have to get greg a plane ticket or uber ride.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Nov 3, 2015 -> 08:44 AM) Titans fired Whisenhunt Should have never have fired Jeff Fisher

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 2, 2015 -> 12:03 PM) but, why? He's not getting drafted in the NFL and he's most likely playing again in one week or two as well as starting the next season or two. I am sure he will not but I was curious if he could do that.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 2, 2015 -> 11:58 AM) So you are saying he should declare or transfer right now instead of waiting one game until he can play again? The whole punishment is kind of pointless. He could do both of those things though couldn't he?

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 2, 2015 -> 11:44 AM) Huh? If he declares for the draft what does he lose? He is a red shirt sophomore. Meyer also said he could earn it back which I assume is no great feat to accomplish. Can he also transfer and not have to sit out?

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 2, 2015 -> 11:48 AM) Checking, I believe its the room and board, food stipend for the summer which is during the term. Oh and they all attend summer school, its the only way to make up the credits to graduate on time. These guys dont take 22 hours during the season. unrelated: I took summer classes every year, it was my favorite time of the year. Or he can choose to not attend summer classes and lose nothing.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 2, 2015 -> 11:02 AM) Yes. If its only for a semester its about 14k, if its for year its almost 30. Yikes. Plus the fees and court costs and lawyer fees. Expensive mistake. s*** with books and everything else a year is over 40k? f*** So if he declares for the NFL draft there is no further punishment other than the one game suspension as I assume whenever a player declares they lose their scholarship anyway. He can also earn it back....whatever that means.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Nov 2, 2015 -> 10:26 AM) Didnt they come out with a new album in the past year? Im sure that would change the set list a bit http://www.setlist.fm/stats/def-leppard-7b....html?year=2015 On very few occasions. They have an 18 song set and they play essentially 16 of the same songs every night and rotate a couple others. In previous years it was the same thing. I was going to go to Loopfest and then looked at the set list and was not interested.

QUOTE (buhbuhburrrrlz @ Oct 31, 2015 -> 06:49 AM) ‘Happy Days’ Star Al Molinaro Dies at 96 Al Molinaro, who played the beloved chef on “Happy Days,” died on Thursday. He was 96. Born in Kenosha, Wisconsin, Molinaro also appeared in “The Odd Couple,” “Punky Brewster” and “Step by Step.” Didn't Al steal the diner from Mr Miyagi. So Happy Days was on when I was like seven. I still think the show is from the 50's and the fact that Ms Cunningham is not 105 years old in real life confuses me.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Nov 2, 2015 -> 09:23 AM) Oh hell I'm older than you and almost everyone on this board I'm guessing, which is why I felt comfortable poking fun at Tex. I remember fondly my Def Leppard cassette tapes and, yes, I had Styx on vinal. It's vinyl Paradise theater double album was "The Best of Times" That same show was the Loopfest lineup this year. I don't think the Def Leppard set list has changed in 15 years.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Nov 2, 2015 -> 08:20 AM) It just didnt deserve an hour and a half, it could have been edited down and I would have been ok with it. I thought it was pretty good and moved along at a decent enough clip and developed why he is who he is and why he does what he does.

Leaving Harvey in after the walk was bad. How does Niese not go out there for a second inning. How bad is the national league?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 29, 2015 -> 09:11 AM) They will have plenty of it, that is for sure. Pretty certain he is not spending Jan through March in New Buffalo. Also appears he is not going anywhere. Oh goodie......

I liked when matt v and smoltz were doing the game during technical difficulties. Also think it is BS to delay the game for it.
