Hahn says that Melky's character is awesome and he wants to win a championship as much as anyone. Melky said he was going to recruit Bonafacio and thats basically how we got him.

Looking at the pictures of the 05' guys there at the convention. It makes me realize how long ago that was and how old we have all gotten since then...holy jeez. And also I felt that little tingly feeling inside thinking about how special that was and how everyone a part of it will hold a place in my heart. That sounds mushy but its true.

QUOTE (Joe B. @ Jan 23, 2015 -> 04:43 PM) Cannot believe how crowded it is here today. It's a blessing for the fans, but a curse for those who are only interested in getting memorabilia signed. Great to see this much hype for the White Sox, haven't seen this in years. Welcome Mr. Joe B

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 23, 2015 -> 04:40 PM) Scott Merkin @scottmerkin 25m25 minutes ago Bobby Jenks said he's 50-50 to make a comeback and pitch again. Wouldn't be possible until midway through season Them are extremely high odds he is giving himself. Its like dude, there is not a 50% chance you are going to make a comeback.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jan 23, 2015 -> 04:14 PM) Stuck watching the Kaplan/Ventura interview on csnchicago. Of course, one of the first things Kaplan brings up is the Cubs signed Lester first. Wrong, wrong, wrong! LOL

QUOTE (Sockin @ Jan 23, 2015 -> 03:34 PM) More or less, yes. They aren't giving wristbands to those outside of the seminar room so after the opening ceremonies, those jot in the room will be pushing and shoving to get to where they want to go. They need to have these at McCormick Place IMO. This way everyone is at the opening ceremony and easier access to pretty much everything.

QUOTE (Sockin @ Jan 23, 2015 -> 03:25 PM) Normally they open doors at 3:30 or so and let people go to whichever session they want to go to. Everyone who is not in the ceremonies room right now has almost 0 to no chance of getting an autograph or attending the first seminar. Hmm. So by the time those get into seminar and autograph areas the first sessions will be over with then?
-
QUOTE (Sockin @ Jan 23, 2015 -> 03:15 PM) Already completely disorganized. They're holding people who want autographs in the seminar room and not letting them go to the autograph sessions until after the opening ceremonies. Wouldnt that be to keep things more organized?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 23, 2015 -> 02:56 PM) It is a big reason why even when I was working in Chicago for 15 years, I never left. Most of the people I knew in the City of Chicago paid that... per month.. or more. I probably have a longer travel time than those that live in NWI yet still paying the Chicago expense. Hmmmmmmm that's my own fault though.

So is Rodon expected to start off in the pen or as a starter? It looks like Hahn said both.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 23, 2015 -> 02:06 PM) Seriously NW Indiana is great. I get all of the cheap of Indiana, and all of the great of living close to Chicago. it is the best of both worlds. I live 5 minutes from Lake Michigan and paid $80k for my house, get great beach access, and wilderness hiking on top of being an hour from downtown Chicago. My property taxes were $400 last year. I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 23, 2015 -> 12:51 PM) I slow cook them in the oven at 200 degrees for about 4-5 hours. and baste them every couple hours with a apple cider vinegar/oil/chili powder mix. Then I finish them on the grill with sauce(usually sweet baby rays). If i had a smoker i would use it, but i dont. I want a big green egg really bad though My next "me" purchase will be the green egg or the turkey fryer. I find it difficult to have bbq that isnt smoked nowadays. I have had too much great smoked bbq to turn back now. But I am sure yours are probably really good though. Slow cooking it on low heat and then saucing it on the grill. Thats meat candy right there.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jan 23, 2015 -> 12:26 PM) Sigh. Amazon to begin collecting sales tax for us unlucky f***s who still live in Illinois for some reason. Insanely high state income tax? Check. Terrible weather? Check. Bad housing rates? Check. AND NOW THIS Seriously, why am I still here? I ask myself this question twice a day at least. Illinois takes my money in so many different ways it makes me vomit on my keyboard... and then I get charged a vomit tax.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jan 22, 2015 -> 08:26 PM) Look at the Blue Demons! Oh, and Ga Tech has 18 points with 11 minutes left in the game. Gregory shouldn't be allowed back on the plane home. They have been something and are first in the Big East but you just know at some point the bottom is going to fall out. I hope not but cmon. -
I am looking forward to Bangkok Village Thai in downtown Naperville tomorrow. I am not even a huge fan of Thai food but they are awesome. Craving their egg drop soup and crab balls (not testicles).

QUOTE (LDF @ Jan 23, 2015 -> 10:49 AM) ohhh all this time i thought it was my english, or lack of. the problem is, with my screen on my laptop, i can't judge the widths and i do not want the sentence to continue in length. so i try to control it for what i thought would be easier reading for you guys. if this was a problem, i wish it would have been brought up sooner. i would have worked on it sooner. so this is not easier reading??? This explains it then. Its a a little bit difficult to understand or read some of your posts because of it but its not a big deal.

QUOTE (LDF @ Jan 23, 2015 -> 10:35 AM) let me get this right, are you talking about my english or the length of my sentences??? Not your english. Its the format of words that you are posting.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 22, 2015 -> 07:18 PM) It's interesting how Bernstein reacts in situations with conflict when he can't control it Yes it is. Well, whenever he has callers that are smart enough to debate with him he always will just talk over them and repeat the same question over and over again dismissing any point that they are trying to make.
