Take the best offer you can get then move a guy or two for Price and ink Price to a long term deal. Hopefully at the end of the day you have Price and an A rated prospect Sale would fit into Tampa's budget as well......

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 6, 2013 -> 06:36 PM) Howard Stern complains about lack of depth of characters? NOw that is funny. Guy interviewed kirstie alley for an hour and a half and it was awesome. The guy is amazing at what he does. He entertains for four hours a day.

Also if Napoli does not come back he wears 12.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Dec 6, 2013 -> 09:58 PM) Ducks had the game won earlier. Such an obvious push by Seabrook on that goalie interference. Probably why there was no call on the Saad breakaway. wonder if he faced any shootouts in the Finnish league? Looks like he had no idea what to do. Seabrook has had two really bad games the last two, really bad.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Dec 5, 2013 -> 03:20 PM) DLPs still see a lot of use in high-end, high-demand video applications. We're building a video wall for a customer that spec'd out 8 70" DLP's, and they are not cheap. I have a 7 year 65" Toshiba DLP that sits in a wall cutout. The size was perfect. The picture is still awesome and the gaming is really good. It is big but not overly heavy. I would think about getting another one if the cost was right.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Dec 6, 2013 -> 09:45 AM) Do you mean s*** tons of money? I've never heard of any complaint that HBO doesn't spend ENOUGH money. They spent something like 100 million to build a set for Rome, a show that lasted all of two seasons. Howard Stern has complained that they do not pay developers or actors well. I suppose he could be wrong.

Not sure it is a class act but it is pretty cool.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Dec 6, 2013 -> 08:15 AM) He is involved in the same sense that Hector Santiago is involved. Meaning he's not. Because Samardzija is not an ace. Not according to the article that I was referring to.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 5, 2013 -> 05:48 PM) I don't know, a lot of the longest running cable shows are dramas, not comedies. Dexter, sopranos, the wire, 6 feet under GoT true blood I'm not sure where to put Weeds, it is funny but not really a straightforward comedy. Yes but they have up and down seasons and are at the liberty of the writers to continue on with an arc as well as subplots used to advance the show. Lost was amazing for three years but then nothing. Shows like the Simpsons, Seinfeld and Mash can have a s*** episode but it is independent of the preceding and next episode as the writers have nothing more than the next week to worry about. Dramas are at the mercy of the writers ability and then the audiences capability to understand.

HBO pays s*** money for programming same thing that AMC is doing. One thing about shows is people want them to come out of the gate flying and then be that good for the duration. Shows lose their luster unless they are scripted comedies written by genius comedians. The Wire was a show that held water for all five seasons but the plot was so spread out that almost every season was a new show but also not to complex as GOT as lose some of the story. I think most of the GOT story is lost on a good percentage of the audience.

How does Samardzija get involved in any conversation in which getting an ace is the team's priority. David Price or Jeff Samardzija.......ok

QUOTE (flavum @ Dec 5, 2013 -> 10:00 AM) Verducci had a pretty good article in support of Jack Morris. It probably won't change anybody's mind, but he makes some good points. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/mlb/news/...s-hall-of-fame/ Would love to see Glavine, Maddux, Thomas, Jack Morris and hawk get recognized. Would be a simply awesome class. I cannot believe no starter who has debuted in my lifetime (1971) has been elected to the HOF.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 4, 2013 -> 04:50 PM) Thats a good thing for FSU, sounds like nothing happening. If he was suspended what happens? They can beat Duke without a quarterback.

SOA is the king of the implausible reality but it was really good again last night.

I am amazed that anyone thinks the 25th man on the roster, which Konerko is, will impact any type of reload, rebuild, etc. Yes the development of a player sitting on the bench works well, see Anderson, Brian 2006. The guy is making twice as much as Tyler Flowers for christ sake. Nobody's hands are tied and the roster is not now f***ed. This is a cheap bench option who amazingly enough should add some nice pop off the bench if needed. He is coming back in a defined role that suites him perfectly what the hell is the big deal?

Move Dunn to LF, Viciedo to right, and Garcia to CF. DeAza is your fourth outfielder Konerko DH Abreu, Beckham, Ramirez, Gillespie Phegley/Flowers 12 pitchers Utility infielder plus another The outfield defense will suck but who cares if the team sucks they should still hit the crap out of the ball. Personally I think Dunn is traded.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Dec 3, 2013 -> 03:55 PM) Would he really be that hard to replace though? What does he give you besides a scowl and some action scenes? Everyone could easily be replaced on that show.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 3, 2013 -> 03:38 PM) I didnt like him at first, but this last season he grew on me a lot. Also, there is really only one true fan favorite IMO, and he is in the spoiler black above this post. Everyone has issues with pretty much every character on the show. Yes if he was off the show the show would lose interest across the board.

QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Dec 3, 2013 -> 02:09 PM) Phegley and Flowers combined for a -.6 bWAR last year. Pierzynski had a 1.6 bWAR. But you're right, we should have kept him, paid him $7 million and lost 97 games instead of 99. That would have done us a lot of good. TWTW

He is 30 years old and has been ok, Maddon most likely used him properly, the White Sox will not, so I figure he will end up hitting about .180 next year.

I view Morris like Terry Bradshaw. Products of a very good systems that were then able to shine because of the situation in which they were placed. Again just my opinion so there is no need to pull out nine million stats to prove that Terry Bradshaw was the greatest quarterback to walk the earth, it is just my opinion.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 3, 2013 -> 06:47 AM) I believe the HOF comes down to more than A game. By the way, I do not think either of them are HOF worthy, I like Jack Morris better for no other reason than he was a good playoff pitcher same as Dave Stewart.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 2, 2013 -> 05:54 PM) Mussina had more wins, less losses, a lower ERA, a better K/9, a better WHIP, lower BB/9, etc, all while pitching in a MUCH higher offensive era. Mussina ranked in the Top 10 for Cy Young 9 times, vs Morris's 5. Both were 5 time all stars. Sorry but I think morris post season success puts him in front of mussina. Did mussina ever win a post season game?

Morris should get in before Mussina.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 2, 2013 -> 01:56 PM) I followed on facebook for a while. I had to drop him, as it was too painful. Last I heard of him he was getting beat up in the Rosemont Horizon parking lot.
