QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 28, 2015 -> 11:23 AM) Whether they make an offer or not, the fans won't know until well after the fact in all probability. It isn't like Rick Hahn is going to give a press conference to announce the offer and details. Maybe something leaks out, but knowing the Sox, that is doubtful. So Hahn will not directly give the public information to either confirm or deny whether or not bucket or rabbit have good sources?

QUOTE (Dam8610 @ Dec 24, 2015 -> 04:20 PM) What are the terms? Looks good for the Nats, regardless. Terms not reported still pending physical.

DANIEL MURPHY AGREES TO DEAL WITH NATS Daniel Murphy, the National League Championship Series MVP, has agreed to terms with the Nationals on a 3-year deal, according to ESPN's Jim Bowden. Murphy rejected a one-year, $15.8 million qualifying offer from the Mets.

Christmas Story I make sure to watch every year. An underrated favorite of mine is Trapped in Paradise.

QUOTE (shysocks @ Dec 24, 2015 -> 12:36 PM) There's evidence that players peak younger now and decline sooner. 28-29 are no longer the golden years. On a phone so I don't wanna link to anything right now, but I'm sure it's easily Googleable. That is actually really depressing. I like the old way better.

QUOTE (SoCalSox @ Dec 24, 2015 -> 12:12 PM) Biggest thing to remember with raBBit, Bucket, Rock, etc is that each FA/Trade situation is highly fluid and can change on a dime. Just because they get one piece of info that doesn't exactly line up with the end product, doesn't discredit them or make them "fake" or "incorrect". I've had it happen multiple times with Bears info. Exactly. But haters are going to hate.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Dec 24, 2015 -> 11:47 AM) Does he have connections within the White Sox organization or is he just speculating like the rest of us? rabbit is the man. You can trust he has great sources. Def not just speculating.

I have seen the same type of thing with the Sox on it and not the Cubs. It all just depends on who their target audience is.

I went with ice ice baby. It seems like the obvious choice.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Dec 23, 2015 -> 08:45 PM) For the love of god already just let it f***ing go LOL Yes we should, I agree.

QUOTE (LDF @ Dec 23, 2015 -> 08:36 PM) then no need to bring it up.... since you seems to forget.... If it's because I clapped then you are just taking the fact you were proven wrong personal. If you are wrong why don't you just admit it? I do all the time. In fact, I done so a couple times today already. I'm done with you dude. I'm not going to get involved in your many great "devils advocate" discussions anymore.

QUOTE (LDF @ Dec 23, 2015 -> 08:33 PM) btw, when did i accuse of all admin and mods???? again, just acting out.... but again on the flip side, just b/c they don't tell the truth, not is ever right, b/c all rumors are wrong and without contents. Okay so you are accusing myself of having no class because of what I am not sure.

QUOTE (LDF @ Dec 23, 2015 -> 08:20 PM) and i have done so, i have always maintain that it is rumors that i have been saying, there are times that i did take liberty in failing to say that it was a rumor and that was on first response to a poster who stated something along the line of his trade and his lack of scoring from the previous yr. i said it was b/c of other incidents and keith. now, no one will be able to disprove what i said was wrong, and i will not disprove that there were other reason. i supplied those links from what i read back in feb.... then the question of whether those links are valid.... how can i know if they are... there were no retraction, no lawsuites.... for defamation of character.... i am more than sure there would have been a law suite. again, this is what you can not seem to understand and those who posted on this thread, posters.... have ..... a ..... right .... to .... their ..... opinion. whether it is right or wrong. no where does it says, every thing has to be in agreement. and then there were the other things..... see i have no problem being wrong, but it appears some poster do. Fine. At the end of the day you are able to throw out rumors that claim Sharp is a married man who sleeps with other players Wifes and whoever else then go ahead. Because.... Well it's on the Internet it must be true! LDF can't bother to check if it's a reliable source or not! That would be unresonable! But the admins and mods have no class. Okay.

I will make one more post about this LDF. Where in the PHT forum do we ever state rumors as fact? There are rumors Gordon may sign with the Sox. Do we say Sox have signed Gordon based on something some website has stated even If its not reputable just because the Internet said it? No, everyone including you would demand a valid source. Why do you think you can come in this thread and play by different rules operating under your "for the sake of discussion" agenda that you always hide behind?

QUOTE (LDF @ Dec 23, 2015 -> 05:18 PM) and you form opinions on what you want to believe and have the power of the board to back you. right...... QUOTE (LDF @ Dec 23, 2015 -> 05:22 PM) oh yeah, you are always right. There isnt some coalition of admins/mods that are uniting against the rest of the board, dude. We hate each other just as much as everyone else.

OMG LDF you still dont see the point that is being made here? Really? Like seriously?

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Dec 23, 2015 -> 05:06 PM) http://www.timesonline.com/sports/pirates/...aign=user-share I am not going to sign up for that to read the article but I will take your word for it. I still don't think we really would know the details to proposed deals that fall through but whatever. If I was Hahn I would convince myself that he has value. LOL Makes it easier to keep a straight face while trying to do deals.

QUOTE (LDF @ Dec 23, 2015 -> 05:06 PM) sure, a lot of players or people will admit that happen. if it didn't how come the players are not suing those who were quoted for defamation of character. there are a lot of proof that this reporter or that reporter are saying this. any way, why do i need to keep score if i proved my point to sway other posters.... what will that get me??? but being classy and neutral in all things, is what a admin and mod have... or to up hold a class act.... which i am not seeing in well i will leave it here. you can answer this any way you want. where there is smoke there is fire. Admins and mods do not need to be neutral. You are incorrect about that. I applauded a post that Tony made because he made valid points within the discussion that you were both having. I didnt applaud because he is an admin but because he proved his point by having counter argument after counter argument that basically took the evidence you were presenting for your case to actually support his side of the argument.

QUOTE (LDF @ Dec 23, 2015 -> 04:52 PM) nice high standards that admin and mods have to show the class they have. bravo. Sorry that you are offended but he completely proved his point in a far better way then I could have done. He proved a point to not only you but a lot of others that have beliefs off of hearsay and rumors and go about there business as if it is fact.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Dec 23, 2015 -> 04:43 PM) He was willing to give him away to the Pirates while paying more than 60% of his contract. We know this as fact?

Although Hahn has shopped La Roche I still think he values the guy waaaaaay more than people on soxtalk values him. Maybe to a fault but I think Hahn probably thinks there is still some value in a left handed power hitting veteran either for this current team or with what the return he expects for sending LaRoche to another team.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Dec 23, 2015 -> 04:27 PM) See, this is why you make me want to rip my hair out. You gave me a Yahoo article. Did you even read it? It was an article on rumors that have surfaced around the Blackhawks. Where did the rumors start? HE CITES THEM as Dan Bernstein and Dave Diehl. Your RantSports article above also isn't reporting anything, and quoting a source from TerezOwens. And if you are basing fact off of TerezOwens, then your belief in reality is a lot farther off than I originally believed. I don't know if a fight happened or not. There has been nothing reported by anyone that has any credibility in the hockey world. My point in this is you consistently take rumor as fact, when a few of us are trying to show that isn't always the case. CLAP............CLAP.................CLAP.............CLAP.........CLAP......CLAP.......CLAP...CLAP. ..CLAP,CLAP,CLAP,CLAP,CLAP,CLAP,CLAP,CLAP.

Sox not mentioned at all. Interesting.

QUOTE (WhiteSoxLifer @ Dec 23, 2015 -> 01:14 PM) as things stand now, royals told chances are nil to keep gordon. other OFs (and SP) theyre weighing https://t.co/CtYsVNCwEy https://twitter.com/JonHeymanCBS/status/679741429804068864 So is this a shoe in for the Sox now?

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Dec 23, 2015 -> 12:41 PM) Bulls evidently dangling Taj / Noah to get a wing. Per WOJ. http://www.blogabull.com/2015/12/23/106588...-to-find-a-wing Does Taj have any value on the trade market, like at all? I think Noah could still be a valuable piece to someone who is on the verge but needs that veteran fiery presence to play limited minutes.
