  1. QUOTE (greg775 @ May 16, 2016 -> 01:49 PM) Read some encouraging stuff about the FBI investigation, that they want Hillary prosecuted and will make a stink if Obama doesn't allow it to happen. Where? Limbaugh's website?
  2. Could probably get Shields for a deep dish pizza.
  3. QUOTE (soxfan85 @ May 14, 2016 -> 02:46 PM) AND he eats plants and lean meats. All around perfect guy. I really can't wait until we play those guys. Hopefully, we can take those smug looks right off their f$ing faces. Especially, Arrieta's. The Cubs are good, but the NL is a joke. Great, they beat up on Locke today...good for them, he sucks. Then, Arrieta plunks Kang because he is getting hit around a bit. I am really looking forward to the Crosstown series'. God I hate Arrieta.
  4. QUOTE (greg775 @ May 14, 2016 -> 02:46 AM) I cannot believe America is so P.C., so afraid to step on any group, that this is an issue to where big companies will boycott the states that merely want to keep females with penises OUT of the women's bathroom. Do you realize what a small percentage of Americans we are talking about here?? Truthfully is it even 1 percent?? So just because a man with a penis IDENTIFIES with being female we are going to pass laws letting this person with a penis go in the ladies room? My god. How about attacking the homeless problem America?? Or saving the environment? Or fixing roads? Making sure our seniors won't all be homeless? Having affordable healthcare! No ... we're going to worry about changing all the bathroom signs in America to make sure people with penises who IDENTIFY with being female get to go in the women's room. What a country. Greg.
  5. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ May 13, 2016 -> 08:35 PM) How many schools still have fully nude showering anyway? That wasn't a thing when I was in high school. But if they do have those, can we bring pepper spray into the showers?
  6. QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ May 13, 2016 -> 08:58 PM) Sale is the best pitcher in the American League and perhaps in all of baseball. Kershaw is still king. Quintana's gonna have to deal tomorrow to retain his title of top AL pitcher in terms of fWAR.
  7. QUOTE (Thad Bosley @ May 13, 2016 -> 04:23 PM) You are exactly correct about Harry Caray. And if our inept owner had left well enough alone back in 1981 when he had the ultimate package of Harry Caray AND WGN together, we wouldn't be talking about attendance problems today. The inimitable Caray was well on his way to selling the White Sox experience to a national audience on 'GN back in '81 the same way he would eventually do with the Cubs a few years later, which garnered them the national popularity that they enjoy to this very day. There has been nary an empty seat in Wrigley Field in over 30 years now, and that's primarily due to the effect of Caray on 'GN selling the Cubs back in the 80s. Could of/should of been us, folks. It's that simple. Letting Caray go over petty reasons was a mistake of the highest consequence on the part of Reinsdorf & Co. that will characterize, among many other things, a failed legacy as owner of our Sox. They offered Caray more money than the Cubs. They didn't let him go over petty reasons. SportsVision was a bad idea, but don't act like they wanted to get rid of Caray.
  8. QUOTE (chw42 @ May 13, 2016 -> 08:02 PM) Sale's evolution this year reminds me a lot of what Sabathia did to become such a dominant pitcher in 2007. Sabathia used to throw nothing but 94-97 MPH fastballs when he first came up. He was good, but not great. Then he started changing speeds on his fastballs. He'd have different variations, a lot like Chris right now. Then we need to consider the defense. It's making it so he (and Quintana) don't have to rely on themselves to record outs. Sale's becoming an even better pitcher and that's scary for the rest of the league.
  9. Do they still do showers in HS other than for swimming? Even in that case, I remember having, you know, curtains.
  10. QUOTE (shipps @ May 13, 2016 -> 12:54 PM) Dont ask me why I am doing this but I keep on running this draft lottery simulator and the Bulls get the 14th pick every single time. It makes you wonder how the hell did they get that number one pick years ago. That draft lottery was soooooo fixed. http://basketball.realgm.com/nba/draft/lottery_simulator I got Bulls at 2nd on my 2nd try.
  11. QUOTE (greg775 @ May 12, 2016 -> 04:38 PM) The government of North Carolina says it's a common sense issue and I agree. If you got the male body part you should go to the male rest room. Why is this such a big deal? p.s. Did you see there are reports Kaitlyn Jenner is miserable and now is thinking about becoming a man again? Greg, it's never gonna get through to you. p.s. Did you know that not only is one person not representative of all transgendered people, but if you look past Clay Travis at Fox Sports you'll know that her rep shot this down as BS
  12. QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 12, 2016 -> 01:49 PM) Russian Insider Says State-Run Doping Fueled Olympic Gold Shocking, right?
  13. QUOTE (Tex @ May 12, 2016 -> 02:14 PM) Maybe they should regulate wide stances.
  14. Basically, NBA saying the Spurs have gotten screwed (again) http://espn.go.com/nba/playoffs/2016/story...-thunder-game-5
  15. QUOTE (greg775 @ May 11, 2016 -> 03:40 PM) Rarely does the ongoing process get ignored when there is still a mathematical chance, especially with the momentum he has. In your scenario the Sox could not win. You're welcome. Or will this be ignored by you as well?
  16. QUOTE (greg775 @ May 11, 2016 -> 02:42 PM) More on political correctness crap. George Carlin, then Dennis Miller/Bill Maher. Nice. "They are pampered little pricks," is how Maher referred to college kids. "Who did not slap these little assholes when they were young." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hkhUivqzWv0 Yes. Child abuse is great. And if you think George Carlin would have a stance backing discrimination, then man, we both remember him very differently. He'd be calling out people that demand to check white privilege, but he'd be ragging on the white people so hellbent on denying that racism exists.
  17. QUOTE (greg775 @ May 11, 2016 -> 03:45 PM) Well, in this situation at least there is a scenario in which there could be inappropriate behavior (little girl could see a male body part in the women's room; kind of scary for the little kid). Most of the protection of little Johnny and Jane in society are situations in where there is no situation set up for inappropriate behavior, just the parents coddling their little preciouses. You do understand that women's bathrooms are all stalls right? How the f*** is a kid seeing a penis in there?
  18. Teeth went through Frazier's lip. I've done that before (on concrete nonetheless), so it sucks, but you can function as long as you don't need to do much talking or playing woodwind instruments.
  19. Eddy slowly coming alive.
  20. QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ May 11, 2016 -> 09:07 AM) I'm 99.999999999999999999999999% this wouldn't happen, but I wonder who the Sox would have to give up to get Gray, Reddick, and Doolittle as a trio. Rodon, Anderson, Fulmer, Adams, Engel and probably a few extra things.
  21. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 11, 2016 -> 08:43 AM) This is where it would be nice to have the Cubs' farm system, lol. We could just target nearly ANYONE, Braun, Trout, Harper, doesn't matter, pretty much nobody would be off-limits completely. Granted, Soler's not worth very much at the moment, Baez might be needed instead of using him as trade bait, but they have enough pieces remaining to make similar trades to what KC did last year adding Cueto and Zobrist at the deadline. One would think the Yankees would prioritize moving Andrew Miller if they fall out of contention in July...keeping Betances and Chapman to build around for next year. What would the Sox be willing to give up for him, though? It's going to be a pretty damned steep price. Brian Cashman still remembers Contreras and Quintana getting away...although in fairness, we gave them Swisher for nothing at least. The Cubs fans at least think they only need to give up minor leaguers for Trout, which is hysterical.
  22. QUOTE (pettie4sox @ May 11, 2016 -> 11:21 AM) You cannot be serious with this comment. About the smart, experienced or committed to running the country part?
