Hall of Fame asking writers not to reveal votes
QUOTE (flavum @ Jan 5, 2015 -> 12:56 PM) Because neither could put up Hall of Fame numbers without juicing their brains out. I can see putting in a proportionate amount of candidates from the Era in, and that would include Bonds and Clemens, but Sosa wouldn't have hit 400 homers without hardcore steroids, and McGwire was on his last legs in the mid-90's. Neither could Mike Piazza, then why aren't all those voters idiots?

2015 Catch-All thread
Saw this on Twitter over the weekend, I'm sure it's been floating around for a while. Posters on a bodybuilding forum start arguing over how many days there are in a week. Go to post #6 and enjoy, so ridiculous. http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=107926751

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Jan 5, 2015 -> 10:23 AM) Gotham is back tonight. The Challenge starts tomorrow. Oh yeah buddy. Hell yeah!!!! I tried to watch the new Real World season, especially cause it's in Chicago, but those f***ers are just too crazy for me to watch anymore. And not fun crazy, more like bats*** crazy.

WhiteSox and Emilio Bonifacio agree to one year, $4 million contr
QUOTE (bmags @ Jan 5, 2015 -> 09:28 AM) I think he saw the disappointment from us in the Denorfia signing and said " I raise you Bonifacio" Then he saw the "I am drunk" thread and announced White Sox players and staff will only stay at Motel 6's from now on.

WhiteSox and Emilio Bonifacio agree to one year, $4 million contr
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jan 5, 2015 -> 08:26 AM) One thing I did notice about him was at least one year with the Marlins and his start with the Cubs, is he gets ridiculously hot for about a week, then his numbers dropped. He did have a really good year a few years ago as a regular. I don't know much about his defensive prowess, but if he is at least average, it should help the team. He definitely has a few hot streaks that make his overall numbers look better. You don't want him playing 140-150 games, but he can definitely help with his versatility and occasional offensive outbursts.

WhiteSox and Emilio Bonifacio agree to one year, $4 million contr
Well if the Sox suck next year, nobody here better blame Rick Hahn, because he is doing everything Soxtalk has demanded. I think Bonifacio gets overrated because of a couple hot streaks (mostly fantasy baseball fans), but he's still better than a lot of the bench pieces the Sox have recently had.

Would you have done things different?
I wouldn't have paid Zach Duke so much money, but other than that I liked all the moves. Panda or Headley would have been nice for 3rd base, but they weren't cheap and I guess you have OK options there.

In 8 seasons, Illinois will have more bowl game appearances than NCAA tourney appearances. They have finally become a football school. (More like a golf/tennis school )

2014-2015 NFL Football thread
Did they ever explain why Dez Bryant wasn't flagged for running on the field to complain without his helmet? That was a worse missed call. Either way, Green Bay should be the most upset. While I expect them to beat Dallas, that's a much tougher matchup than Carolina.

2015 Cubs Catch-All thread
QUOTE (raBBit @ Jan 1, 2015 -> 11:28 AM) I think everyone's being serious. Denorfia was a popular choice to round out the bench. http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=94210 Interesting. Guess I missed the memo on that one. I get all these bench/platoon OFs mixed up.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jan 1, 2015 -> 10:30 PM) Crawford has got to make that stop though. That was a bad goal to give up. You figured there was gonna be a make up call at some point. He got distracted by Ovechkin whining for the slashing call, but yeah.

QUOTE (dasox24 @ Jan 1, 2015 -> 10:39 PM) I can't believe what I'm watching. As much as I wanted Alabama to lose, I gave Ohio St no chance in this game. Lot of time left, though. But this game has been awesome. Urban. Meyer. OSU benefited from the whole tattoo "scandal"

2014-2015 NCAA football thread
QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 1, 2015 -> 09:38 AM) I think they have a chance, Urban's teams have more speed and talent than Tressel's did. I think the key will be if Jones can be accurate on some deep passes, Bama has been susceptible to big plays through the air. Maybe I'm not so dumb after all.

Should The Sox Buy the Old Post Office For A New Stadium?
QUOTE (Thad Bosley @ Jan 1, 2015 -> 09:01 PM) Very interesting discussion. So any guesses as to what happens after 2019, after the Cubs terminate their involvement with CSN and move to their own regional sports network? Do the Sox continue on with CSN, and do they benefit by potentially increasing their % ownership due to the Cubs departure? Why would the Cubs sell their 20% though? Unless there is a provision in the contract that they must keep some games on CSN.

The Alabama red zone defense is lethal. It won the Iron Bowl and is the key so far today. Lovie Smith would be proud, bend but don't break

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jan 1, 2015 -> 07:49 PM) Old BCS system would have put FSU in the title game fyi One undefeated BCS team and a one loss SEC team? Would have been FSU vs Bama without a discussion. Good luck Rock, don't think I have it in me to root for your guys though.

2014-2015 MLB off season player movement and rumors thread
QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Dec 30, 2014 -> 04:53 PM) Well Brandon Maurer finally got traded, but not to the Sox. He's going to SD for OF Seth Smith. Mark Buehrle knows how Smith feels. The previous GM had given Smith a verbal guarantee he wouldn't be traded. Then they acquired all the outfielders.
