Falcon Heights Minnesota shooting
lmao at Y2HH telling MexSoxFan how to feel. QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 7, 2016 -> 02:02 PM) Man, are we hiring the wrong police officers? Less than half have college degrees and that half is less likely to use force. Do we need to up the requirements to be an officer? I'd say yes.

QUOTE (Deadpool @ Jul 7, 2016 -> 11:40 AM) I doubt the mutual second year option for Rondo is in the Bulls' future plans. I would expect that Rondo walks in order to make room for two max contracts That's why I said if that fails. Wade will know if it's gonna happen before Rondo has to become a FA.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Jul 7, 2016 -> 11:21 AM) Out of the top guys the one guy next summer Wade may give them a legit shot at is Chris Paul because they are really close. I don't see Wade being a draw for Westbrook and the Bulls aren't getting Curry. If they have even thought that far ahead my guess is they are hoping Wade can recruit CP3 who will then bring Blake Griffin along with him. From a purely basketball standpoint the signing does nothing to help the Bulls get closer to a championship. And if that fails, Rondo and Boogie are tight.

Chris Sale named to All-Star game
QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jul 7, 2016 -> 11:12 AM) Sorry Q Jordan Bastian @MLBastian 7m7 minutes ago Corey Kluber is an All-Star. The Cleveland ace has been named as a replacement for Toronto's Marco Estrada (15-day DL). If Q is somehow passed over for Davis' spot, Yost should be fired into a brick wall.

Falcon Heights Minnesota shooting
QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jul 7, 2016 -> 10:44 AM) Where is the NRA today?? This guy was killed because he was legally carrying a gun the constitution allows him to have. This is right up their wheelhouse. **crickets*** I mean, the logic being used here is that legally carrying a gun is an allowable death sentence, so yeah, where's LaPierre's ass at? He's so quick usually.

Alton Sterling
QUOTE (Brian @ Jul 6, 2016 -> 07:46 PM) Saw the second video. It's pretty clear it was a straight up execution. The cops should be jailed. But we know how it will end. The second video makes it obvious. The two cops should get life, but they'll get acquitted.

Avila leaves game, placed on DL. Narvaez called up
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 6, 2016 -> 03:43 PM) First you b**** the Sox kept this guy on the roster during a rebuilding season, then sent him to AA the next season where he fell on his face. Now you are complaining he and his sub .500 OPS aren't around to call up. It's amazing what you argue about. Uh, I think you quoted the wrong poster.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jul 6, 2016 -> 02:08 PM) Michael Jordan himself wouldn't solve the Kings. They are such a mess. I know some things about that org that I won't talk about (due to who the info comes from), but man, the stories about them are insane at how dysfunctional they are (ownership / front office / coaches). Don't even need insider stories. Just this video from 5:00 onward.

Favorite Soxtalk Beef
QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jul 6, 2016 -> 03:01 PM) The worst part about this is that we were arguing about whether the team would be better if Brent Lillibridge, a guy I forgot even existed, would make a better starter. This team has been so bad for so long How can you forget the Stealth Elf!?

Avila leaves game, placed on DL. Narvaez called up
QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 6, 2016 -> 02:54 PM) Let's just put it this way. He's a career 609 OPS guy in the majors in 434 career AB's. That makes Avi Garcia look good, almost. We MIGHT be better off with Nieto...who's the better defender. Have you ever watched Smith play an inning of baseball to definitively say Nieto is better?

They should trade for Alex Rios to play catcher.

Avila leaves game, placed on DL. Narvaez called up
QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 6, 2016 -> 12:32 PM) It is a bit weird that they'd protect Carroll over Hector Sanchez. Why would any other MLB team want Carroll desperately? Despite all the MLB pitchers we've gone through, we still haven't used Carroll or Turner. So now we're going to have to sacrifice Narvaez to the wolves. Not that he was a top prospect or anything. Reminds us, though, that stowing away the A+/AA Cuban catcher from the Nationals for an entire year had ZERO payoff at all. He's where he would be invaluable...or would have been, that experience. Adrian Nieto has been s*** in Marlins organization.

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jul 6, 2016 -> 12:27 PM) Many do. But the #3 is usually not a highly valued property, unless you're fortunate enough to have a good AAA prospect, which most teams don't. Their third catcher got injured the day of his debut.

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jul 6, 2016 -> 12:15 PM) Considering Avila's injury history, they should have had one of those AAAA guys or grizzled veterans who have played for 1/2 the league stashed away in Charlotte. maybe they do. They actually had that one guy, but released him to "clear room" on the 40. but the 40 contained such luminaries as Scott Carroll et al. SO NOW YOU HATE THE SCOTT CARROLLS OF THE WORLD? Also their third catcher got injured the day of his debut.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 6, 2016 -> 11:36 AM) Wait, players recruit other players? Since when? /DRose probably Oh for the love of. It's been well established that Rose didn't recruit back then because he 1) Was the White Knight basketball fans idolize in that he wasn't "can't beat 'em, join 'em" but in that he was "Can't beat 'em, go again." 2) He was loyal to his teammates and didn't want to undermine the Deng, Kirk, etc. There's a lot wrong with Derrick's last four years with the Bulls, but his first four years he was the Heir Apparent to Kobe in that he wanted to win on his terms, would die on the court, etc.

Rick Hahn
QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jul 6, 2016 -> 08:23 AM) The affirmative decision to rush up Rodon and his stunted development as a #4 is another feather in Hahn's cap ( Cooper's as well). Cooper's continued status as whitesox deity another issue as well. lol
