QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 12:39 PM) The daughter of the first African American president will get to cast her first vote for the first female presidential candidate. (Stolen from a tweet). I think this party can be fairly content with that. Who cares that our party's candidate is really s***ty too, at least it's not a white male. American politics 2016.

2016 Cubs catch-all thread
Vince Velasquez leaves after throwing 2 pitches, that's never good for a young guy who had had Tommy John before. And the greatest OF prospect baseball has ever seen on the greatest franchise in world sports history threw a runner out at home today.

Fire everyone
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 08:31 AM) Never said that. I do think he is similar to Joe Torre. Check out Torre's managerial record before he had top of the line rosters. Sorry, my bad. Robin Ventura = Joe Torre #HotTakesbyDickAllen I'd join in the discussion if you actually thought that was true, but I know you don't, it's just the way you are choosing to attack the board today.

Kevin Love out for game 3. The fact that they even let him stay in to shoot free throws was a major failure in concussion protocol.

2015-16 NHL thread
QUOTE (Deadpool @ Jun 7, 2016 -> 10:28 AM) Not all of them. If I had to guess, Crawford, Hossa could be exposed. Nothing is official, but it sounds like we could know about expansion very soon. The idea of exposing Crawford sucks. He was actually the Blackhawks' MVP. NHL still up in the air on NMCs, but most seem to think they won't be selectable. Kind of sucks. This offseason, no. But let's see how the season plays out and he'll be turning 33 during the 2017-18 season. Goalies don't usually age well.

2015-16 NHL thread
QUOTE (Deadpool @ Jun 7, 2016 -> 10:08 AM) That's why I think the the Blackhawks will likely expose at least one core player in the expansion draft. The problem remains, though, a guy like Seabrook or Hossa can still hose the Blackhawks by retiring early even from another franchise. From what I was reading yesterday, most of the core have no move clauses in their contracts which would prevent them from going in the expansion draft. That may be why they are looking to trade Teuvo now, because he may likely have to go in the expansion draft anyway.

2015-16 NHL thread
QUOTE (Tony @ Jun 6, 2016 -> 03:51 PM) If a team was willing to give them an actual piece back in a trade involving Bickell-Teuvo, I would absolutely be listening. The questions is, what team has a better chance to win another Cup? This core in 2017 or 2018 without Teuvo, but with a couple solid players or another actual D-man? Or this core 5 years from now much older and slower but with Teuvo? If they do trade Teuvo, I think Stan is saying f*** it. These guys are not getting older or cheaper, now's the last chance to win a Cup, time to go all in.

2016 Tennis Thread
QUOTE (Brian @ Jun 6, 2016 -> 06:03 AM) He's always been likable to me. Had fun out there. I can't get a read on Andy Murray. I think my dislike is based on him stealing the crown from Federer, who I'm a big fan of. Murray seems to fit the perfect stereotype of a little whiny Brit.

Robin Ventura should be fired today
Whether or not Ventura is a good manager, I think he should be fired just to send a message to the team. Maybe they get better, maybe they drown in a tailspin, but I'd have zero issue if it happened.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 4, 2016 -> 02:15 PM) The bottom line is the media wants Hilary to win badly and is doing all in its power to make it happen and will continue to do so. Trump is an evil jerk, we all know that. Hillary is just as bad a person, actually probably worse. The choices are stupifying. They are beyond belief. We are voting between Donald Trump and Hillary CLinton?? Thank goodness presidents have very little actual power. I am a lifelong Republican and Clinton family hater. There is zero chance that Hillary is a worse person than Trump. ZERO. ZILCH.

Jason Coats injured
At least he got to make his major league debut unlike Kevan Smith (I think). He didn't even make it through warmups. Tough luck for Sox prospects.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jun 4, 2016 -> 07:38 PM) Sharks getting dominated at home right now. When you play 13 games vs the Predators and Blues, it probably is tough to adjust to the speed of the Penguins. Plus,;Pitt has stayed out of the penalty box.

White Sox Acquire James Shields
I know nothing about Tatis and EJ wasn't getting it done with this organization, but its really hard to like anything about this trade. It smells of desperation from a team with much larger holes to fill.

Robin Ventura sacrifice bunted with the 3 hitter in the 7th inning
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 2, 2016 -> 02:38 PM) For #3 hitters, they have attempted a sac bunt 7 times this year across MLB. Do they have a list of when these bunts happened? I'd be curious to see the situations and players involved.
