QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Mar 24, 2015 -> 05:53 PM) Maybe not next episode, but it would certainly make for a S1 finale type reveal. They should show Jesse in Walt's science class at some point. That'd be awesome.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Mar 26, 2015 -> 08:33 AM) Not a good day for Bernsie and Spiegel, but mostly Bernsie. https://twitter.com/RegressedPDO/status/580933766488715264 Ehh. Nothing is going to happen to either of them. I'd have that same conversation with a buddy. I'm pretty surprised they put it on twitter though. It seems Spiegel's original point was that she's bad at her job which is true. Weird that it went that direction.

QUOTE (kevo880 @ Mar 25, 2015 -> 03:34 PM) The more I think about the draft and our needs the more I think our first two picks will be DB and WR, not necessarily in that order. OT would not surprise me either. Could get a starter at 39.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 25, 2015 -> 01:54 PM) You have convictions on your record when you apply for a job and they do a background check, most of the time you don't get the job. Of course he has no convictions, but if he was an accountant and he was fired, and it was out in public as this is, chances are he would have a hard time finding employment. And thanks for the crash course in what happens when applying for a job. I was wondering about that.

Unless he's really good at saving people money.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 25, 2015 -> 01:50 PM) And if he is able to work in the NFL, I would hope the Bears would be above hiring him. Why would they be above hiring him though? They have Ka'Deem Carey on their roster. People willingly cheered for Brandon Marshall for the last 3 seasons as well in a Bears uniform. They are a football team. They have to weigh risk/reward every day. Apparently they think this risk is worth it.

QUOTE (bmags @ Mar 25, 2015 -> 01:47 PM) I think he should be able to work, just why should he be able to work in the NFL? Well because he's a football player? That's his job. When accountants get a domestic assault charge and get fired they most likely go to another accounting firm and get a job. If you want to play professional football in the United States, well the NFL is where you go.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 25, 2015 -> 10:23 AM) lol at expecting Cub fans to be rational. Every Cubs fan I've talked to thinks he should be in Iowa. I don't generally associate with idiots though.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 25, 2015 -> 01:27 PM) So you don't know, but because the Bears could use a DE, there's a pretty good chance he is innocent. How do you explain the bruises on his fiance's neck? I never tried to explain the bruises on his fiancee's neck. I don't care who they sign. I've always said this. I compartmentalize things like this. I want to be entertained on Sunday. I don't really care what these guys do on their time. The majority of people have jumped to the conclusion that he's guilty already though when he may not be. From what I read, there is no case. Especially if the defense attorney has the surveillance video that he claims to have. I can't speak on the domestic assault case. Charges weren't filed and that doesn't mean he's innocent but should the man never be able to work again?

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 25, 2015 -> 01:01 PM) Based on what? Did you read the affidavit's on the case? They are public. He may have. He may not have either though. Evidence suggests otherwise. They were drinking and having a good time at McDonald's home. Were both drunk. McDonald's story is that they had sex consensually and then they spent the entire day together the following day. He claims to have thought that they hit it off. After she left that night, she said that he took advantage of her while she was drunk. The charge was rape by intoxication. He absolutely could have done that. Maybe he didn't though. I wasn't there. Neither was anyone else.

There's a pretty good chance that Ray McDonald didn't sexually assault that woman. Doesn't seem like that changes anything though. People's torches are out.

Which Cuban would you most want to add to Sox?

Soler. Gonna be a monster. -
QUOTE (LDF @ Mar 25, 2015 -> 05:42 AM) i don't know the rules, can the bull buy out Rose contract, is that the right terminology?? They could use the stretch provision if they wanted to. Rose is owed $40 million over the next 2 seasons. If they used the stretch provision, they could release him and pay $8 million per year on their cap over the next 5 seasons. I'd rather just take the 2 year big hit.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 25, 2015 -> 09:06 AM) Baez going north, and Bryant not... Cub fans are going to burn down Wrigley Field. Cubs fans should burn down Wrigley Field if Bryant doesn't start in Iowa.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Mar 25, 2015 -> 09:05 AM) He also says that he doesnt mind that these people are killing themselves for his entertainment Yeah he loves the NFL and wants it to continue. He just thinks that if you let your kid play you are an idiot.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Mar 24, 2015 -> 01:16 PM) Poor Andy Wilkins. Shouldn't they trade him somewhere he's got a chance to play? I'm not really sure there's a team for him to play on.
-
QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Mar 24, 2015 -> 01:17 PM) From a checkered past, if McDonald truly has video evidence proving his innocence, than he isn't even in the same stratosphere as Brandon. Brandon has made significant changes in his life but the guy's rap sheet and his life prior to that was a complete an utter disaster. You think about the stuff people say about Dez and Marshall was probably worse. I think McDonald has domestic violence history but it sounds like the sexual assault case is a nothing. Still a lot of risk though. Fangio and ownership had to give the okay.
-
McDonald sexual assault case is going nowhere. He's suing his accuser and claims that his home surveillance system will prove that they had consensual sex. He's an upgrade at 5 technique for sure though. Ka'Deem Carey assaulted his then pregnant girlfriend while at Arizona. I'm waiting for the backlash at him as well. It's a completely different point but many of the same people who wanted Brandon Marshall to remain a Bear want no part of McDonald. Tad bit ridiculous.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Mar 23, 2015 -> 10:05 PM) This makes sense if they do expect Sale to pitch the 12th. You go 1-4 starters, a spot start from a long reliever (Penny?), and then Sale slides in at the front. Why would they give Shark that much rest with an off day though? So he would start Monday and then not pitch again until the following Monday? If Sale is indeed starting on April 12th, there is no reason to keep Penny on the roster. 4/6 Shark vs Royals 4/8 Quintana vs Royals 4/9 Danks vs Royals 4/10 Noesi vs Twins 4/11 Shark vs Twins 4/12 Sale vs Twins They could switch Danks and Noesi as well.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Mar 23, 2015 -> 12:30 PM) Last Man on Earth is so good. I love it. I've started Battle Creek (new show by Vince Gilligan), and for a cop-procedural, it is pretty good so far. Dewey Crowe and Choo-Choo from Justified are in it so far, and in the first 2 episodes I've seen, Vince has managed to slip "making meth" in to each episode. In ep. 2, they've gone as far as to create a meth lab to make maple syrup, but it certainly looks like a Breaking Bad style cook. Vince Gilligan really isn't involved in Battle Creek at all though is he? I thought his name was still on the project to get viewers but he hasn't been involved since like 2009? I could be wrong.

Give me Bickford or Cameron if the draft fell that way. Swanson will be a 2B in the pros. Pass.

Surkamp on trading block, roster moves coming

QUOTE (Jake @ Mar 23, 2015 -> 09:31 AM) I don't really see us busting our ass to make room for Matt Albers. Brantly and Cleto are obvious candidates to get chopped if they aren't making the team, which it seems they won't. Brantly has options left though. -
Hey oldsox dropped by to pile on Davidson. Saw that one coming.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 23, 2015 -> 09:10 AM) I think Webb is going to Charlotte. I think he'll be back when he shows he can go a couple of outings without walking people and throwing wild pitches. Maybe they'll make him the closer at Charlotte? He has closer upside. Maybe he can dow ell down there and they can use him in a deal for someone. He's not going to close for the White Sox any time soon.
