QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Dec 17, 2013 -> 09:43 AM) The Score is saying that there is more crap coming out of the DRose camp directed at the Bulls. What did I miss? THey are going to talk about it soon. Found it: Derrick Rose unhappy with Bulls' rebuilding plans His injuries are forcing the rebuild!! STFU DRose. I really have lost respect for you If that's the case, then screw him. We've wasted the last two seasons because of him.

Briggs should be back this week. Maybe our run defense will improve from horrible to bad.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 17, 2013 -> 09:24 AM) find that guys twitter feed and read through his back and forth responses. It is hilarious, he says something like "when the field goal was designed for the game, they didnt have 60 yard dome field goals in mind. 30 yard field goals are earned" lmao He's gotta be trolling.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 17, 2013 -> 07:35 AM) @Zigmanfreud: Lions/Ravens game was perfect example of how the NFL needs to change field goal rules to make it tougher to make them. Lions deserved to win Lol! lolwut? The other team hits a 61 yard field goal with almost a minute left, the Lions had all their timeouts, and their franchise QB throws a pick to end it, but they deserve to win? What kind of entitled bulls*** is that?

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Dec 16, 2013 -> 11:36 PM) Stafford yes, I'm not sure who overrated Romo though, that guy gets killed more than anyone. The only reason he gets killed so much is because people expect a lot out of him. He's paid like he's a franchise QB, but he never plays well when the Cowboys' season is on the line. The Cowboys themselves are overrated as hell.

Matthew Stafford and Tony Romo are overrated as hell and love screwing up in December.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Dec 16, 2013 -> 04:55 PM) They already had that done with Wong at 2B. Wong is said to be ready and Ellis will be the RH alternative to Wong/Carpenter. Wong and Ellis will most likely platoon.

QUOTE (PorkChopExpress @ Dec 16, 2013 -> 02:55 PM) Slogan: Back to Basics Commercials: (1) (Think Bull Durham-maybe even use the clip from the movie) This is a very simple game. You throw the ball (followed by clips of our pitchers pitching and maybe Viciedo throwing someone out at home), you catch the ball (followed by some web gem-type clips), you hit the ball (followed by a bunch of homerun swing clips). White Sox baseball--back to basics. (2) Garcia and/or Eaton with Beckham and/or Ramirez and then Davidson/Gillaspie and maybe a few others at a bar/restaurant celebrating a win, the waitress brings over some drinks and starts to hand one to Davidson/Gillaspie when Garcia/Eaton intercept it and pass it to Beckham/Ramirez who then pass it to Davidson/Gillaspie. The waitress walks back to the bar looking slightly puzzled and asks the bartender what that was all about, to which he responds "Got to hit the cut-off man." White Sox baseball-back to basics. (3) Black Screen, all you hear is the sound of a ball on bat, and then "Again." Another sound of ball on bat, "Again." A few more times, and the screen fades in to a video of Robin or another coach standing watching one of the players practicing bunts. White Sox baseball--back to basics. (4) All the outfielders sitting together listening to Robin give scenarios, like "Man on first, single to left," or "men on first and third, flyball to deep center" and the group of them responding in unison with the appropriate base to throw to in each situation. White Sox baseball--back to basics. Hawk would appreciate that.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Dec 16, 2013 -> 04:33 PM) FWIW, Keith Law and Dave Cameron both love this trade for us. Jason Parks does not. Keith Law loving a White Sox trade? *gasp

Jones has closer stuff, so he should be the man by default.

QUOTE (ScottyDo @ Dec 16, 2013 -> 04:02 PM) Seems kinda unfair. I don't know that I would consider either Reed or Santiago "meh" considering their ages or ceilings. Santiago is pretty meh honestly.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 16, 2013 -> 03:12 PM) Jon Heyman ‏@JonHeymanCBS 9m Axford gets $4.5M guarantee, plus $1.75M in incentives for $6.25M on 1-yr indians deal. Took less to close for winner. Axford will be the Indians' closer? lol that's a disaster waiting to happen.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 16, 2013 -> 03:14 PM) Jon Heyman ‏@JonHeymanCBS 31m Mark Ellis got $5.25M base plus incentives on 1-yr deal. #STLCards as @Ken_Rosenthal said Now they get to move Carpenter to 3B.

Got a PS4 + 12 months of PSN Plus from Best Buy for $450 + tax. Not a bad deal.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Dec 16, 2013 -> 02:28 PM) Why? You throw a pick it's as good as a punt. You go for a higher percentage play and you get a first down. I wasn't going through Cutler's progressions, so I can't speak for who was or wasn't open. But if there's a shorter pass that'll get you a first down, I'd rather take that. It's not like the only possible outcomes of that play was TD or turnover.

Davidson was actually pretty good in 87 PAs last year with the Diamondbacks. The Ks are are an issue and the defense is a question mark, but I'll take it.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 16, 2013 -> 09:46 AM) It was still a 50 yard throw against the wind, while getting hit. The fact that he was throwing a 50 yard pass on third and 11 into double coverage made it a WTF throw.

I liked Addison, but he did seem to wear down the past two years down the stretch (his velocity dropped 2 MPH last year). This is a good haul for him.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Dec 16, 2013 -> 07:28 AM) Fantasy football playoffs are all about luck. I scored the 2nd highest points in the playoffs ever in my keeper league last week but lost because the guy I faced scored the most (I got Vereen and McCoy'd). It's frustrating but it happens. I went off again in the consolation this week and will be playing for 5th place (and a captain spot - see above) now. Fortunately, in my other league I won this week thanks to Josh Gordon's garbage time TD. Thanks for the TD run Michael Bush!!! So I'm guaranteed $300 for 2nd, if I win it will be $600. The guy I played in the semis scored 145 (second most of the week by far) and he's going to lose to me because I'm going to score 170+. It's funny because I also scored 170 against him in our regular season matchup. That's some bad luck.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Dec 16, 2013 -> 09:29 AM) Jay was lucky as s*** Jeffrey made a circus catch. Otherwise it'd be 7 days of talking about his future. That was such a WTF throw.

QUOTE (bmags @ Dec 16, 2013 -> 09:25 AM) K, but you just repeated that back without saying Great which really undercuts your point in nitpicking word choice. He played well enough for the media to back off of him for a week.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Dec 15, 2013 -> 07:00 PM) If the bears do have to face Rodgers in week 17, they at least have the ability to win a shootout (especially at home), unlike in years past I don't know about that. Cutler hasn't had a good game against Green Bay in 3 years.

Green Bay should have been out of it for a while now, but s***ty teams like Dallas, Atlanta, and Minnesota have let them come back late in games and stay in the race.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Dec 15, 2013 -> 06:50 PM) From the Bears perspective, not only is GB still alive but I bet Rodgers would have just been shut down if the Pack lost this game. This hurt the Bears in more way than one. Exactly. This game would have sank GB and there would have been no reason for them to bring back Rodgers. Now the Bears will have to win-out and Rodgers will most likely be the QB for that last game.

lol Romo. The Cowboys are so f***ing useless.
