If we make the playoffs, Kenny has all the right to go on TV and tell Ozzie to suck it. Because the Marlins aren't making it, at least not this year. Not with The Phillies, Braves, and Nats if they get Fielder.

My grandma had ALS. Thus, my respect for Stephen Hawking grows 10 fold. He's really amazing as a human. Here's him rapping vs. Albert Einstein

Mizzou lost. Damn.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Jan 7, 2012 -> 10:09 AM) I've heard that English is one of the tougher languages to master. Having studied Spanish for years, it's definitely tougher in comparison. Many things in English seem arbitrary while Spanish seems to have much more structure. English is a clusterf*** because you can make up words that make sense to people who know it, but no one else. Example: clusterf***.

I like Durant and Harden, but after that... Ibaka doesn't have much offense. Perkins has no offense as the biggest fake tough guy in the league. Westbrook seems to think it's his team.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jan 6, 2012 -> 08:17 AM) Just unbelievable to see one freak play in a joyful moment potentially end a guy's career like that. It's really depressing. QUOTE (sunofgold @ Jan 6, 2012 -> 11:13 PM) It doesn't disgust me. Zambrano ain't a cubby anymore. We can root for him now. Always thought that he was a decent pitcher just way too emotional on the field. B&Z beating the cuBS would be sweet. f*** that. I hate the Marlins except for Mark and Zambrano is a piece of s***. There's emotional then there is "asshole."

Bulls and Heat are easily the two best teams in the league.

Derrick looks badass with the sleeve.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jan 6, 2012 -> 06:38 PM) If he's thinking of Floyd as a #2 or better its either for his AA team or he needs to be attending AA meetings. If he pays Drabek/McGuire I could care less what he thinks of Floyd as

QUOTE (Marty34 @ Jan 6, 2012 -> 11:40 AM) When Cowley didn't say anything I figured it was made up.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 6, 2012 -> 08:36 AM) If this league honestly gets to the point where shoe companies are dictating where players play, I really think my interest level will drop significantly. I can see it with Howard, only because he's an insecure b**** who can't think for himself.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jan 6, 2012 -> 06:45 AM) Being reported on the Score and WBBM that Starlin Castro has been accused of sexually assaulting a woman in her mid-20s. https://twitter.com/#!/WBBMNewsradio/st...264808709660672 Well damn.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jan 6, 2012 -> 03:32 AM) Ok, I see the 20111 thread was closed. I couldn't find a mirror thread to that one. SO I ask you soxtalk. why is giving birth considered an accomplishment? Like people say congratulations. why? I mean, i can get with, wow, you have a beautiful daughter or son or whatever. that's fine. but people treat you like a prince or princess for a while. I mean, when you graduate college or something. now that's an accomplishment. not everybody does. anybody can have a kid or kids. I don't see the sense of "wow, look what i just did. i had a baby." yawn. now to raise it well, that's an accomplishment. but to initally have it. no, that's nothing. that's like a juan pierre single. anybody can do that. thank you for your timer. My guess is the train of thought is "Wow, congratulations on losing your extra weight."

Has Milk come in and said "Nerds" yet?

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jan 5, 2012 -> 11:01 PM) The Hawks have no basketball IQ or intelligence whatsoever. How did they lose this game? This is even worse than the Bulls loss the other night. This is like a win and a half for Miami. No LeBron or Wade on the road against a "good" team. These games count for extra in a condensed season. The Hawks will be zombies when we play them. I feel we'll see lots of Butler and White Mamba.

QUOTE (JorgeFabregas @ Jan 5, 2012 -> 09:34 PM) Game one: 6 minutes, 1/2 FG, 2 rebounds, 2 points Game two: 1 minute, no stats logged Game three: 1 minute, 2/2 FT, 1 rebound, 1 block With his usage rate, it apparently works out to a PER of 37.27. Which puts him a tick higher than LeBron James as of today. #FunWithSmallSampleSizes Don't f*** with The Butler

QUOTE (sunofgold @ Jan 5, 2012 -> 07:51 PM) Marlins reminds me a fantasy baseball team. You try to get as many decent players together as you can afford. Buehrle and Zambrano on the same team. That sounds like one of my past fantasy baseball teams. Marlins are going to be interesting to watch. Hope Rowand makes the team as a backup OF. It disgusts me to see Buehrle and Zambrano in the same rotation.

DAMN YOU TWITTER.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jan 4, 2012 -> 03:21 PM) Pumped (as usual) for The Show this year. While they haven't seemed to be making any drastic improvements, they ARE adding co-op franchise mode, which will be sweet, full game MOVE support (which will be interesting to try at least), and some "big surprise" for Franchise mode. I've heard it won't be anything like Create-A-Stadium or expansion teams or anything fun like that, but something big enough that they are keeping it on the hush for now. Full move support? May be back on my radar.

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Jan 5, 2012 -> 07:50 PM) Yes, on Monday. 5 game stretch where 4 of the 5 are against the Bulls and Heat. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 5, 2012 -> 07:23 PM) So Atlanta is playing three in a row againt Heat-Bulls-Heat? Those schedule makers were just mean to Atlanta

Quick! Everyone pray to the spaghetti monster for good return!

Well, let's find out.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jan 5, 2012 -> 06:50 PM) And there's no reason we can't go out and sign a Roy Oswalt on a one-year deal, Rich Harden, same type of "band aid" solution the Tigers applied with Brady Penny/Coke until some of their minor leaguers were ready. Joe Saunders and Pat Maholm are out there, too. The reason is I want some of these young starters working with Coop.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jan 5, 2012 -> 06:46 PM) I don't disagree, but Thornton's $6 million option seems like a lot to take on, especially after signing Oliver and then acquiring Floyd. I have no idea what the Blue Jay's budget is though. Well, the Jays need to be bold as f*** if they want to dethrone the Yankees/Red Sox/Rays

Also, perhaps an overpay could happen due to AA basically receiving a package of Floyd-Santos-Thornton-Frasor
