Should the White Sox and Rockies talk trade?
QUOTE (GreenSox @ Nov 13, 2015 -> 10:42 PM) I'm not much interested in Colorado, but Arizona always seems to churn out a good bit of talent. Such as Matt Davidson Adam Eaton

White Privilege?
Greg, stop. Stop being a parrott for talking head agenda radio. You're a journalist. Actually do some research for once in your life before spouting off a waterfall of unsubstantiated opinions.

Chris Sale did not finish in the top-3 for AL Cy Young voting
QUOTE (chw42 @ Nov 10, 2015 -> 05:58 PM) Sale had 2.4 more fWAR than Gray. Gray had 2.5 more bWAR than Sale. How Sale only had 3.3 bWAR last year is beyond me... fWAR is the preferable metric for pitchers. Anyway, thanks White Sox defense!

White Sox hire Rick Renteria and Greg Sparks
He was doing a good job with the Cubs. It's just that Maddon was made available.

2015-16 NCAA Football Thread
QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Nov 9, 2015 -> 12:51 PM) Your fanbase seems vehemently against the strike from about every source I've scoured online. Obviously not a great gauge, that's why I was politely asking you for your opinion. I'm not basing anything off reading "one article" online. I've talked to both alum and students alike about it. People who think there's a problem and those who don't. What seems to be universal is the questioning of the motivations and merthods of Johnathan Butler. I might be biased as a friend and former co-worker, but his motivations are pure.

2015-16 NCAA Football Thread
QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Nov 9, 2015 -> 12:46 PM) I feel like you just agreed with me? They didn't get the necessary attention until a racism element was brought into it. Racism has been the part going on the past two years. It wasn't just health benefits, it wasn't just PP, it was all of it. But mostly racism.

2015-16 NCAA Football Thread
QUOTE (gatnom @ Nov 9, 2015 -> 12:39 PM) I don't know enough about Missouri to know whether or not this guy deserved to lose his job, but those two bold statements don't add up IMO. In Jonathan's letter, he touched on more than racism. Racism was the main driving point, but just some other things that have happened recently.

2015-16 NCAA Football Thread
QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Nov 9, 2015 -> 10:39 AM) Sounds like some idiot didn't like his health benefits getting cut and tried staging a walkout. No one cared at all so he had to find another way for attention and claimed racism to do it. As someone who has been here the entire time, not even close. There has been a steady stream of racism since Ferguson. There have been notable events. Grads had health benefits and tuition waivers cut. Planned Parenthood's university sponsorship was removed due to political pressure. Protests were had, rallies were had, letters and petitions sent. Wolfe didn't respond ever. That was the problem.

**2015 World Series - Mets vs Royals**
Royals players decided to talk about how they didn't have a ROY, Cy Young or MVP but they're still awesome and beat them all. God they're assholes

FOX World Series coverage: Loud-mouthed, distracting, senseless
QUOTE (bmags @ Nov 3, 2015 -> 05:16 PM) It is amazing to me how awful baseballs national color commentators are. To go from Tim Carver to Harold Reynolds. It is insane for the sport that basically invented thoughtful analysis they have the absolute worse personalities. Right now its NHL EPL NBA NFL MLB I had Royals fans tell me Rex Hudler is good for baseball. The problem is a lot of these former players are god-awful announcers. Some are good. The Sox are probably gonna look at Pods, Rowand, Frank, etc. who have all been terrible in the booth with Stone or Hawk. Give me a trained announcer, not a former player. At one point I got the international stream with Matt Vasgersian and John Smoltz. Vasgersian was awesome, Smoltz was meh.

Arizona Fall League
QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Nov 3, 2015 -> 12:35 AM) I'll never forget when Nathanial Stoltz said that Adam Engel is the closest physical specimen to Mike Trout that he had seen. It's always in my mind when I think about Adam Engel. I do the same thing.

My/Your Off Season Plan
QUOTE (bmags @ Nov 2, 2015 -> 10:59 PM) Is there a shortstop or 2b the Cubs could trade us that wouldn't be an upgrade? Why are we having such hero worship to cement our average players as starters. Castro?

**2015 World Series - Mets vs Royals**
QUOTE (greg775 @ Nov 2, 2015 -> 12:01 AM) To those of you who remember everything Greg says ... does anybody remember my love of Christian Colon and how I've said I WANT the Sox to acquire him? Too late now. We can trade Chris Sale for him.

**2015 World Series - Mets vs Royals**
QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Nov 1, 2015 -> 11:53 PM) Yeah it flew over my head. I Didn't remember their team was as good offensively as it was that year. It was even better than this years Toronto team If the team had even pitched half as well as '05, that team sets up a dynasty. C'est la vie. That's baseball for you. This Royals team can be back next year or rebuilding in two years like that team.

**2015 World Series - Mets vs Royals**
QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Nov 1, 2015 -> 11:47 PM) Are yet we'll still be figuring out what we're doing as the team wins 79 games and misses the playoffs for the eight straight season Btw those WS hats look terrible. It's like a damn Nascar hat. Holy s*** it was joke about the 2006 team.

**2015 World Series - Mets vs Royals**
QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Nov 1, 2015 -> 11:43 PM) If only the 2nd Wildcard was around in 2006... They will miss the playoffs behind the White Sox, Tigers and Twins. White Sox sweep Cy Young (Sale), MVP (Abreu) and ROY (Fulmer).
-
**2015 World Series - Mets vs Royals**
And now they will win 90 games next year behind stellar offense and OK pitching as their bullpen implodes and they will miss the playoffs.
