I totally hear ya but to be fair they may just be feeding the appetite for that discussion. I hate that its the case but you hear people comparing the two at work, grocery store, barbershop etc. so the media is going to naturally feed into that.

Craft cocktails and beer. Good food. Usually solid bands. That sounds awesome. I love Johnny Cash *Hawk voice*

Lillian and I are going to keep a keen eye on this thread.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 20, 2016 -> 11:22 AM) Spirit already does this, so you can fly that airline if you want. Ha, that is probably the one thing that airline does right. Seriously, if they would all do that it would help and not to mention make more sense in my world.

Maybe if airlines starting charging for carry-on's INSTEAD of charging for check-in bags we can alleviate people having all these damn bags for carry-on and lines will go a hell of a lot faster.

QUOTE (Lillian @ May 20, 2016 -> 09:31 AM) Perhaps I've gotten the wrong impression. It just seems like most posters here think that he's "untouchable". Any time a trade proposal is made, which might have to include Anderson, many nix it immediately. Lillian, have you seen some of the trade proposals around here? LOL Yeah I am sure there are a handful that latch onto him but those posters do that for every guy they like no matter what.

QUOTE (Lillian @ May 20, 2016 -> 09:00 AM) For those of you who asked what prospect ranking does not include Anderson in the list of top 10 SS prospects: http://m.mlb.com/prospects/2016/#list=cws?list=ss I think that source is credible, don't you? Look, I'm not "down on him". I just think that he is overrated by many Sox fans. As I said, athleticism, speed and bat speed are all great, if they translate into being good at baseball. There have been too many guys like Joe Borchard, Brian Anderson and Jared Mitchell. Micah Johnson looks like he may be headed for the same scenario. Great athletes, with various physical attributes, who never amounted to anything. Meanwhile, the Dustin Pedroias and Prince Fielders of the baseball world become stars. By the way, isn't Altuve amazing? None of those guys look like athletes, but they are very skilled at what they do on the diamond. I guess I am just not seeing much of the overly optimistic sox fans as you are. There are people around here who really like him but I have seen no one that talks about him like he is flawless and a sure bet. If he was he would be facing the Royals tonight.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ May 20, 2016 -> 08:33 AM) Royals fans banned me from a thread lol. Didn't say anything bad just said they're lucky as f*** they're missing Sale. They're such pansies. That is pretty much trolling them.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 19, 2016 -> 01:07 PM) Marilyn Manson in college fit that bill Tool is another band that I feel sort of guilty too. But they rock so hard. QUOTE (bmags @ May 19, 2016 -> 02:06 PM) I mean, the misfits have some truly horrible lyrics. I listen to incredibly misogynistic rap and older tunes. You can take it literally as endorsement, but I don't find it that different than watching a violent movie or tv show. See that I dont really feel bad about, its the groups that are very specifically almost targeting my beliefs and mocking them that make me feel guilty about liking. Not every song that contradicts what christianity frowns upon.

I really like Portugal. the man but I have to be honest, the lyrics they sing are about as atheist as it gets and I consider myself a christian. Not a crazy conservative bible thumping Christian, just something that I believe in. I feel kind of bad liking them. There is plenty songs that I have loved over the years with crazy lyrics but its something about their lyrics that feel pretty bad. Do you guys ever run into liking music that doesnt quite line up with your beliefs?

Philly media people dont even believe they will make the playoffs next year and are just looking for them to look like an NBA team. That isnt quite a vote of confidence to give your basketball team. Yeah I would take the Bulls over that.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ May 18, 2016 -> 02:52 PM) I just make up for the cost by not wearing underwear LOL Nope, there has to be some sort of buffer there otherwise you will light your f***ing pants on fire with your gas.

QUOTE (bmags @ May 18, 2016 -> 10:30 AM) I'm sure a top 11 pick that has not lived up to his potential will definitely net us a top 5 pick in a good draft. Him alone certainly wouldnt but I think KC was just throwing names out there of guys that could be included in a package to net a top five. It still may not even be a possibility but I am sure they are going to try if they have a guy the feel they HAVE to get.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 18, 2016 -> 09:52 AM) It might go well with his skinny jeans. That is probably an even bigger task for me. Its hard to find people who make a good skinny jean for a husky fella.

KC Johnson was hinting this morning that the Bulls may be trying to trade up to possibly the top five so that they can grab Dunn. He threw out the names of Miroctic and McDermott.

QUOTE (JenksIsMyHero @ May 18, 2016 -> 09:44 AM) Have you tried slim fit shirts? If you know your neck and arm length size accurately, slim fit are basically custom shirts anyway, unless you have an abnormal body shape. They're tighter in the shoulders, chest and sides compared to traditional fit shirts which are more baggy. I was always hesitant to buy anything slim, but I lost a little bit of weight and now they're perfect. I had two sets of custom shirts made and they fit just the same but were way more expensive. That is my issue. My shoulders and back are way more broad then normal so they fill out even the regular fitting shirts.

You guys have opened my eyes to getting my shirts custom tailored. That really is my main issue, they never fit right and I am always feeling uncomfortable in some different kind of way with each one.

QUOTE (Tex @ May 17, 2016 -> 03:20 PM) If you are a casual wearer of suits my students are telling me that Combant Gentleman makes a nice quality suit for not a lot of money. Only on-line. https://www.combatgent.com/ Those are some damned good looking suits.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ May 17, 2016 -> 03:12 PM) All I need is my birthday suit. Your wife somewhere right now is rolling her eyes and not sure of the reason why.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 17, 2016 -> 02:54 PM) I just bought a Kenny Cole suit yesterday. So that. Good choice my friend.

For those of us that buy off the rack and cant afford custom suits made by a personal designer, who is your favorite brand of suit? I found the Kenneth Cole suits fit me the best. I don't have to alter anything on their suits. It fits everywhere just right...like totally Damn, I wish I could post a fancy picture of me in this suit so you all could admire! Do you go to Bachrach? They sell some quality suits. I found that some of the suits are made for someone who is still living in the 90's. Baggy pant legs and huge shoulder pads.

QUOTE (Ezio Auditore @ May 17, 2016 -> 02:38 PM) DEE-z NUTS GOT EEMM!

Ezio Auditore sounds like a soxtalk display name of someone who is sure to cause a bunch of s*** for mods/admins to moderate. With that name you are for sure to be suspended or banned at some point. Maybe because all of the vowels?

I kind of felt like doing this with how bad the traffic was on the Ryan this morning. http://abc7chicago.com/news/police-corner-...r-63rd/1342024/ He may have had a chance of getting to at least 71st St if he would have pulled his pants up.
