QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Oct 31, 2017 -> 11:28 PM) I don't know about your Facebook, but for every conservative post I'd have like 6000 liberal posts (yes hyperbole). The gap has widened even more since the election. I'm in my 30s so of course the younger people are super liberal and the older folks are consevative, generally. Which is pretty much how it always is. Unless some quid pro quo emerges, say relating to ukraine policy, i don't honestly think the Russians cared who won. They just wanted to f*** with as much West as they could. I'll maintain that viewpoint until some proof otherwise emerges. Collusion seems just as unlikely now that it's MuellerTime as it always has IMO. Guessing you missed the Papadopoulos news?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 31, 2017 -> 09:57 PM) Ozzie is now begging for the Cubs bench coach job. Remember all of the s*** he used to talk about the Cubs? What a clown. Pretty sure this would kill my brother and Greg. QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 31, 2017 -> 10:00 PM) Are the candidates not available because of the team or because of the salary offer? Girardi could be hired by the Reds or Padres tomorrow if they offered enough. I think the Sox could have had several extremely qualified candidates, but ownership has no wish to pay them or even meet with them if they never played in Chicago before. It's not about nobody wanting to coach the Sox, it's about the Sox limiting their coaching search. Renteria?

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Oct 30, 2017 -> 12:24 PM) I wonder how many of the people at the RNC who were chanting lock her up when Christy was going through his BS, will actually wind up locked up themselves. Well definitely Flynn

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Oct 30, 2017 -> 11:47 AM) Papadopolous worked for Sessions during the campaign. I wonder how many times and just how badly Sessions perjured himself beyond what we already know. Source?

QUOTE (bmags @ Oct 30, 2017 -> 11:24 AM) I doubt it would be Treason, that is such a narrow crime. What about light treason?

Trump asking why the focus is on Hillary.

Dios mio the offense.

God damn

lol

f***, why's it gotta be Gurriel?

Weak suspension.

So the Kremlin being involved with the Trump Jr. meeting is probably this week's bombshell. Talking Points Brought to Trump Tower Meeting Were Shared With Kremlin https://nyti.ms/2ySHvVn

Re: Jason's hot takes & more Agreed on Lauri. He's shown way more than what was being said during the draft. He can put it on the floor, has the mindset to go hard and dunk and that three point shot is pure. I'm torn on keeping RoLo or not. He's the type of veteran that is great for a locker room full of inexperience and I'd love him in a Kurt Thomas/Brad Miller leader role. On the other hand, tank on. Portis needs to go. Niko's value is gone while he's out with a broken face. The Bulls are still bad, but this is the draft where they need a Top 3 for the rebuild.

I'm really liking what I see from Nwaba. Reminds me of rookie/sophomore Jimmy - high energy, good defensive tools, gets to the hoop. If the Bulls could turn him into a Ronnie Brewer Bench Mob Role, that'd be phenomenal.

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Oct 27, 2017 -> 12:40 AM) I'm not in favor of dumping Ricky for Girardi, but it wouldn't be the same scenario as the Cubs. Renteria took a 67 win Cubs team and won 73 games. Renteria took a 78 win Sox team and won 67 games. I understand that was not Ricky's fault the Sox sucked this year, and it was stacked against him, but the Cubs fired him right as their rebuild was rocketing towards the finish line. The Sox *would* be firing him after the lowest point of the rebuild. This is hysterically disingenuous and you know it. He took at 78 win team that lost a HOF level starter, have a season of a Top 15 pitcher, a gutted bullpen, an elite right fielder traded and a grieving SS for the first half. And there was only an 11 win drop.

It was disgraceful when the Cubs did it, it'd be disgraceful if the Sox fire Ricky solely to hire Girardi. I think Ricky earned next season.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Oct 25, 2017 -> 05:14 PM) To me it's the Big 3. Porter/Bagley/Ayton. Pray for one of them. I wouldn't sleep on Doncic, Bomba is my #5 but I can see him in there. The top of this class looks absolutely absurd on paper.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 25, 2017 -> 12:12 PM) Rivalries don't die because teams play each other a lot. You can go down the list of long term rivalries. If you put the Sox and Cubs in the same division and REALLY gave them something to play against each other for, it could actually intensify it to Red Sox vs Yankees levels. And not only are they now competing for a division title against one another, they're even more readily fighting for fans.

QUOTE (Iwritecode @ Oct 25, 2017 -> 11:21 AM) They posted a fix, but c'mon, two years in a row?

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Oct 25, 2017 -> 09:30 AM) We knew that the dossier started its life with the Jeb and Cruz campaigns and after the primaries was then funded by "Democrat-associated people" but the DNC and Clinton camp denied direct involvement IIRC. Either way though, there's nothing unusual about conducting opposition research. The work appears to have been legit, and Mueller and Co. will investigate and substantiate what claims, if any, are true. And yeah it's still a couple of steps removed from receiving emails saying "would you like to collude with the Russian government's efforts to help you win" "yes!!!!" https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/nation...bbb9_story.html Also a few steps from publicly requesting Russian interference.

Yeah, Lauri has been a joy to watch. Hopefully he'll pair well with whichever one of the Big 5 the Bulls get.
