QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 16, 2014 -> 10:27 AM) Doug Padilla ‏@ESPNChiSox 1h Reports say Chris Getz will retire at age 30. Had been with the Blue Jays. Is it really "retiring" when you want to work but nobody wants you.

So who are we rooting for tonight? Home ice is always nice, as is not having to fly to CA tomorrow, but I really think the Kings are a better team and they worry me more. It's gonna be a tough series regardless the opponent of course.

Had to turn on the AC earlier this week and now it's snowing.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ May 16, 2014 -> 08:29 AM) The problem that I have is the way it's covered. So you mean to tell me that Backes and Seabrook "are all good now"? Not saying it to you Rock but that's how the commentators make it sound. Seabrook concussed a guy and f***ed with his livelihood but everything's good now. "Look at them shaking hands". Backes is a professional and didn't react in the handshake line but that line is often contrived as something the teams are "supposed" to do. Puck Daddy agrees with you: The worst tradition in hockey

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ May 15, 2014 -> 08:13 PM) Anyone else stay with The Blacklist the whole way through? Season finale was Monday, thought it was pretty damn good. Nice. We fell behind (insert early bedtime joke again) but are catching up tonight, big fan of the show.

QUOTE (KevHead0881 @ May 15, 2014 -> 04:22 PM) Yesterday Bernsy (with info from whatever source he has, I presume) flat out said that Kep was hated in that clubhouse, and even went as far as to say that his personality, coupled with performance and the logjam at that position all contributed to JR's willingness to eat the remainder of his salary. FWIW. Bernstein's "sources" haven't been the best recently, but Keppinger doesn't seem like the type of guy to have a personality that strikes teammates the wrong way. Obviously I don't know him, but just my observation.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ May 15, 2014 -> 05:54 PM) I see his point, but Puig plays in one of the ESPN big four (New York, Boston, Miami, LA). Of course he gets more attention. ESPN loves Chicago when there is something to talk about, just not the White Sox

Martin Perez is the next pitcher to succumb to Tommy John disease. If you think the Sox have injury problems, the Rangers have it way worse.

I don't remember people ever complaining that the neighborhood around Chicago Stadium & the UC was too bad for people to attend games.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ May 15, 2014 -> 11:15 AM) So do we think the start times for the WCF's are going to still be 8:30ish or are we thinking 9 or 9:30 when they're in Anaheim/LA? Last year in LA they started at 8:00 CT, so I imagine the same would happen this year.

QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ May 15, 2014 -> 10:58 AM) was just wondering why u said you dont count 2011? Because forcing someone to think about Dunn's 2011 season is the definition of cruel and unusual punishment

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ May 15, 2014 -> 10:23 AM) Ducks won, so game 1 is actually Friday night at 11:00pm CDT This may or may not mean Shaw had a leg amputated. Who returns for the Hawks first? Shaw or Kim Johnsson?

QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ May 15, 2014 -> 10:05 AM) and im assuming this is sarcasm?lol Not at all. VMart: .301/.355/.430/.785 Dunn: .219/.320/.442/.762 Martinez got on base more, but Dunn hit for more power and had 20 more homers. Depending on what you are looking for, Dunn wasn't really that much worse in 2013.

ESPN Chicago ‏@ESPNChiHawks 32m Quenneville says on WGN 720 he expects Shaw to play at some point in Western Conference final. Shaw expected to skate today or tomorrow.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 15, 2014 -> 08:43 AM) s*** I missed that part. http://deadspin.com/milan-lucic-gets-heate...-gam-1576694532

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ May 14, 2014 -> 10:11 PM) Come back in the morning, I'll let you know who wins. And????? I can't handle the suspense!

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ May 14, 2014 -> 09:41 PM) There's a giant logo at center ice. Yeah, yeah, whatever. That's too much thinking going on late at night. The rookie is gonna want that goal back, ouch.

QUOTE (JPN366 @ May 14, 2014 -> 09:50 PM) So, now he will sign with Oakland/Boston/St. Louis, hit .330 and end up the World Series MVP? As long as it's not Boston or St. Louis, that's fine by me

QUOTE (fathom @ May 14, 2014 -> 09:15 PM) The Chicago media covers baseball still? LOL, beat me to it.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 14, 2014 -> 08:47 PM) 4 conf finals and two cups in 6 years. Pretty damn good. Especially in the modern day salary cap league. Gotta enjoy every moment cause s*** happens in playoff hockey, and the rest of the Central Division is improving and young.

This LA - Anaheim series is killing me. They keep switching off white and black jerseys and every game it takes a while to remember who is who.

Carey Price is gonna earn his paycheck these last 11 minutes, you know the Bruins are gonna get at it

QUOTE (raBBit @ May 14, 2014 -> 05:39 PM) White Sox 6-0 in games Andre Rienzo pitches. Impressive work, especially against a team like Oakland. And I think that first baseman might be OK at baseball

QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 14, 2014 -> 02:49 PM) His ankle is really bad right now but he wont come out and wont sit. Supposedly he will have the next two days off

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 14, 2014 -> 01:23 PM) I did not know that. That must be weird to have to take the bus anywhere you need to go. You really need to get out of Kansas once in a while Dorothy.
