QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Jan 6, 2016 -> 10:13 AM) I bet Denver resigns Wolfe and Miller. They are going to have a ton of cap room with Manning leaving. Have you looked at their cap and # of free agents? They have to sign Osweiler if they want him as well.

QUOTE (Dunt @ Jan 6, 2016 -> 10:03 AM) If they f*** this up by going on the cheap, good luck drawing this season. No f***ing chance. How are they being cheap though? Dumbasses on twitter are criticizing the Sox too. It's just stupid. If Gordon went back to KC for 4 years and $72 million that means he likely wouldn't have come to Chicago for 4 years and $80 million anyway which is the max that the White Sox should have offered to a 32 year old player. Relax people. Just because he stayed in KC doesn't mean the White Sox did something wrong.

If the Sox can lock up Cespedes, it's actually not a terrible thing. Get to keep the draft pick and still upgrade the team. Also, the Royals signing Gordon basically pushes Hosmer and Cain out of town before long.

If the White Sox indeed offered more money, there's not much else they could do. He wanted to stay.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Jan 5, 2016 -> 11:21 PM) I disagree, at least on Houston anyway. Houston lined up as a linebacker on 80% of his snaps in Oakland, and it's what got him paid. I think people forget that. I also seem to remember him grading out as one of the best against the run in Oakland as well. Yeah I wouldn't run either guy out of town. Neither of them make much money. Unless you can get like a 4th or 5th for either guy, there's no reason to release them.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jan 5, 2016 -> 09:36 PM) Why do you all like Derek Wolfe so much? He's a good player. John Fox loves him. And he's the most likely free agent signing of all the guys available in my opinion

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Jan 5, 2016 -> 02:55 PM) Is the Hall of Fame significantly flawed? Yes. Is the Hall of Fame an irrelevant joke? No. It's a HOF without some of the best players to ever play the game. It's a joke.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 5, 2016 -> 09:49 AM) By excluding Bonds the person and player, you aren't excluding Bonds' achievements. You aren't pretending his doesn't exist. You are very clearly saying that Barry Bonds the player didn't merit inclusion into the HOF for whatever reason it was. Unless the HOF sets new standards, it has always been this way. Bonds is a better guy than Ty Cobb was

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jan 5, 2016 -> 02:17 PM) Desmond King coming back for his senior year at Iowa. His mom wants him to be the first graduate of the family. Now if Drew Ott can somehow get a medical redshirt, Iowa may be pissing off Cowherd again next season. I hope he doesn't get hurt.

The Hall of Fame is an irrelevant joke.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jan 5, 2016 -> 01:19 PM) People are really gullible. That guy's job is to get a guilty verdict. The documentary was spun to be highly in favor of the defense. It was completely one-sided. All of his points are completely accurate and had they been shared in the documentary, no one would be upset that Avery is in jail. The *67 s*** alone implicates Avery pretty well in my book. This is not true. Regardless of whether he did it or not, they didn't present enough evidence to convict him. That's the problem.

4 pages about a rumor that isn't even a rumor. Nicky Mitch is full of s***.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jan 5, 2016 -> 10:57 AM) Wait, the Browns hired Jonah Hill? I actually really like this move. Paul DePodesta is a smart guy and isn't only analytics based. I could see Chip Kelly working there now actually.....

On the Today Show this morning, the filmmakers said that one of the jurors admitted that they believed that Avery was indeed framed but handed down the Guilty verdict because of fear for their well being in that county. http://finance.yahoo.com/news/making-murde...WQDBHNlYwNzYw--

I can't tweet from work but Bruce Feldman just tweeted this: Mike Leach's 2000 Texas Tech Staff: Art Briles, Dana Holgorsen, Sonny Dykes, Dava Aranda, Chance Ruffin, Kliff Kingsbury, Sonny Cumbie, R. Anae, and Clay McGuire. That's nuts.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jan 1, 2016 -> 05:05 PM) I am talking legally. Legally, there was undoubtedly sufficient evidence. And 12 jurors, who heard all the evidence in its entirety, found that he was guilty. Not one juror who actually voted found reasonable doubt. That is pretty convincing to me. How nobody thought that there was "reasonable doubt" is absurd though. Do I think that the police orchestrated the whole thing? No. I don't know "beyond a reasonable doubt" that they didn't though.

QUOTE (WhiteSoxLifer @ Jan 4, 2016 -> 01:56 PM) You can count out Edwin Jackson. Close to agreement with marlins Fister has 1-2 year offers from multiple clubs. I wonder if the White Sox are one of those clubs

QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ Jan 4, 2016 -> 10:42 AM) Cryptic tweet from an insider, apparently a typo Jim Bowden ‏@JimBowden_ESPN 1m1 minute ago Pay Gordon & Angels sign Kendrick and Upton Was either a fan question or supposed to be a DM

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jan 4, 2016 -> 08:35 AM) I''m not 100% on this, but I think the Bears pick 11th in odd rounds and 8th in even rounds. So they pick 11th in 1st. 10th in 2nd. 9th in 3rd. 11th in 4th. 10th in 5th. 9th in 6th. 11th in 7th round. I just looked it up. They'll have picks #11, #41 (New England forfeits 1st rounder).

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Jan 4, 2016 -> 09:30 AM) I like the draft and develop mentality of Ted Thompson. I think teams that try and win by signing free agents are usually the bad teams, but signing 2 or 3 low priced players isn't the end of the world. TT has had good success with that, but he seems to shy away from it for some reason. This is one thing that needs to change this off season, although I doubt it will. Ladarius Green is perfect type of player they should go after. Young and probably won't cost that much. Fills a big hole for them. I agree with this. They'll never "go nuts' in free agency and they have no reason to. There's also no reason to carry over a ton of cap space when you are a potential Super Bowl winner that has a few holes that could be easily filled in the short-term.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 4, 2016 -> 09:11 AM) WTF happened? They were cruising the first 6 games then it's like the Broncos beat them up and they never recovered. Personnel issues. Bad OL. Lack of skill players. Thompson's drafts haven't been as good and they never supplement the roster with free agents even though they have $$.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 4, 2016 -> 09:03 AM) The guy with the third highest ceiling isn't on that list. Adolfo?
