QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 17, 2016 -> 12:30 PM) Look what Boston gave up for Kimbrel, and what Cleveland gave up for Miller. I am starting to think the bullpen is becoming the most important part of a team. Are there many bad teams with a good bullpen? Look at how the Sox were when the bullpen was on fire to start the year.

QUOTE (Thad Bosley @ Aug 17, 2016 -> 10:40 AM) Noah Syndergaard #38 in 2010 Blake Swihart was #26 in 2011 Joey Gallo #39 in 2012 Aaron Judge #32 in 2013 Michael Kopech #33 in 2014 I like how he asked for #26 picks and you only gave one.

Speaking of space, Mass Effect might finally be getting remastered. Time to lose roughly 120+ hours to that if so.

Whenever I'm with my parents they listen to MSNBC and it reminds me how much I hate Chris Matthews.

QUOTE (Sleepy Harold @ Aug 16, 2016 -> 05:42 PM) More From WSD, FWIW I didn't hear the call, but the latter seems like his opinion to me. Well, they could have gotten the great farm for 2017 at the deadline, JR.

Time to get Hansen popcorn ready.

It's a result of better training and nutrition that has evolved with sports science.

Thanks to revenue sharing, Sox would never leave Chicago unless the league could make more money. Most places getting tossed around won't make more money than being the second team in Chicago.

QUOTE (SCCWS @ Aug 16, 2016 -> 07:45 AM) Not necessarily true. The poster said early stages. Not sure how much you know about early dementia but I have been working with patients for close to 20 years. Someone who has early dementia can be perfectly lucid in some areas but will have other parts of their daily routine that they struggle with. For example, it is very common for a dementia patient to sit down and work a crossword puzzle or discuss their childhood yet have no clue what they ate for lunch an hour ago. If Jr was able to do a 30 minute feature he most likely would be in a very early stage if he does have the start of dementia. Three weeks ago my dad saw JR at a deli that JR frequents in Arizona. Said he seemed fine.

QUOTE (JenksIsMyHero @ Aug 15, 2016 -> 04:33 PM) CNN needs more missing plane coverage. My favorite instance of this was when a gun had been fired near the White House and the breaking news was the damn plane.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Aug 15, 2016 -> 04:12 PM) I think CNN is less left aligned then FoxNews is right aligned. My view is CNN is the best place to get news and I don't think that highly out of FoxNews for well news. FoxNews was my go to news station 4 years ago and they have went into the tubes more recently. None of it is perfect but I feel CNN does a pretty good job getting as many different commentators as possible which provide you with many differing views and thus enable any individual to holistically listen to various views and think which ones they prefer. Sure, there are people who lean one way vs. another, but hard to not have that exist to some extent. People can rip at me all you want, but I think CNN's election coverage has been pretty good. I also am smart enough that I can listen to something and come up with my own opinion on it and can also blow off or read through a lot of BS that all of these organizations spin. CNN is definitely the least biased of the networks. They're big issue is when they get hung up on certain topics. They're left leaning, but not left slanted.

In other news, Rudy Giuliani is going insane.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Aug 15, 2016 -> 02:38 PM) I went through it in school. It's very much publicized. It's not an actual brainwashing, but there's a lot of professors who teach you their ideology instead of how to look at an issue, contrasting viewpoints, problem solving, etc. A few recent examples: Harvard has banned a good deal of their prominent conservative alumni. DePaul has banned conservative speakers like Ben Shapiro and Milo Yiannopopolus from coming on campus. U of I took a professor's tenure away for a speaking out against Israel's treatment towards Palestine. Occidental expelled one of their most esteemed students over what an extremist professor deemed rape. Missouri allowed Ben Shapiro and bowed repeatedly towards the conservative government in the state. So, right-wing brainwashing in academia? (Yes, I'm aware that BLM protests led to the stepping down of the system president. My point is that there's not some university-wide Illuminati indoctrinating people.)

Jesus, Call.

QUOTE (spiderman @ Aug 14, 2016 -> 05:39 PM) If the only available candidates, should Ventura not be back, are ex-White Sox players, does replacing him matter? Sandy Alomar Jr. and Dave Martinez would both be fine.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 14, 2016 -> 02:25 PM) Watched some of the morning shows today. There was a lot of talk about unfair coverage of Trump compared to Hillary. Said the media is heavily Democratic and deems it its duty to keep Trump out. Was this on Fox News by any chance?

QUOTE (Dam8610 @ Aug 14, 2016 -> 02:16 AM) That would never work, you can't have 2 CFs. Where would you play the second Trout? Closer

Pls no

IGN's review is kind of hammering home all of the fears I had about this game. http://www.ign.com/articles/2016/08/13/no-...y-review?page=1
