QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 04:34 PM) Definitely the best bang for your buck deal. His speed isn't what it once was, but compared to Zues, it's still no contest. Helps ease TT into the lineup as well. He better be playing with Hossa. Hands and vision still top notch. It doesn't take much to upgrade over Handzus, and at $2 million it's definitely worth the risk, maybe he is rejuvenated and shows some old flashes of skill at age 34. Like I said earlier, this offseason is about resigning 19 & 88, not much else, so have to applaud a signing like this.

While she is still working the other job, just try to make and keep as many solid business relationships as possible right now, you never know when those people could come in handy in the future. I don't know what kind of customer base her business would draw, but having potential customers lined up right when you start is huge, just get some money and stability flowing in right away.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 01:37 PM) I really want to f***in win today. We can beat Argentina. If you can beat Belgium, you can probably beat any of the other 7 teams left in the tourney.

Group winners are 7-0 in the Round of 16 so far. JINX BELGIUM!

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 01:22 PM) As long as we aren't being influenced by the overspending wave. While it's no fun when your team doesn't make any big moves, re-signing 19 & 88 long-term is much better than any big money deals that happen on July 1.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 01:00 PM) Wow , Orpiks contract. He's gonna be 34 to start the year, why wouldn't you give him a 5 year deal?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 12:37 PM) When is the start of the match today, in Chicago time? 3:00

Ryan Miller to Vancouver, 3 years x $6 million per

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 11:53 AM) Bolland just got 5 x 5.5 in Florida.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 11:46 AM) 7 mil x 4. Sounds like he took a shorter deal because he spent time in STL growing up when his old man played for the Blues.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 11:35 AM) Stastny to St. Louis. Ouch. f***. Hope that works out as well as the Ryan Miller trade did.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 10:15 AM) Bob McKenzie ‏@TSNBobMcKenzie 9m DAL trades Alec Chiasson, Alex Guptill, Nicholas Paul and 2nd round pick in 2015 to OTT for Jason Spezza and Ludvig Karlsson. #TSN Jeez. The West just gets stronger.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 08:06 AM) I say China is a good reason not to attend. Meanwhile I'll be going to both games today. What's your excuse, everyone else. White Sox games are just sooooooooo expensive, an average Joe like me is lucky to afford one game a year.

Game postponed. Will be a straight double header starting at 4:10 on Tuesday. Probably should have just called it three hours ago, the weather want a surprise.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jun 30, 2014 -> 02:52 PM) Tornado Watch extending as far east as Boone/DeKalb/LaSalle counties until 7pm CDT. Good bet that it eventually gets extended to cover the rest of NE IL. Chicago is supposed to get hit around 6 to 7 PM from what I read. Multiple tornado warnings across Iowa so far.

I'd take the license plate trophy over the Cubs' attendance trophy any day.

Jozy cleared to play vs. Belguim, but that doesn't mean he will start

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jun 30, 2014 -> 12:13 PM) The Score is un-listenable with Rozner on the air. I really enjoy the Mac/Speigel show, unfortunately, the show is never on the air for enough consistent stretches. Chicago is seriously lacking in good sports radio. Boers is terrible. Jurko kills ESPN. And on and on. Instead of trying to find young talent, they just keep bringing around the same old voices. Sometimes change is good.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Jun 30, 2014 -> 09:38 AM) Weather forecast: Windy with thunderstorms. A few may be strong, especially early. Storms may produce large hail and strong winds. Low near 70F. Winds SW at 20 to 30 mph. Chance of rain 80%. Looks like there's potential for some real nasty weather tonight, even heard "derecho" mentioned.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jun 30, 2014 -> 07:27 AM) Any reason to think Africa won't be totally eliminated today? Not really: France (Regular Time) -303 Nigeria (Regular Time) +700 TIE+375 Germany (Regular Time) -400 Algeria (Regular Time) +1000 TIE+500

Has any team ever employed a home/road platoon??

Three guarantees in life: Death, taxes, and Mexico losing in the round of 16.

Rejoice Blackhawk fans. Brandon Bollig is gone!!!!!

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Jun 28, 2014 -> 12:27 AM) Yeah, typically hockey players from North Dakota suck. Especially that Toes guy

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 27, 2014 -> 07:38 PM) Trading Crawford would be a godsend for this franchise QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jun 27, 2014 -> 08:58 PM) It would be a godsend. I like this Rock Raines guy
