Sox and the Media
QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 18, 2015 -> 11:14 PM) Do you guys agree with me the Sox will get the least amount of media EVER this upcoming spring training into the season? The Cubs have that young core and the rabid fanbase and just a few months after making the NLCS the media will be salivating to reporting on their spring training. And after acquiring Price? Meanwhile, we got the buzzkiller LaRoche and the offseason stories about how his hand hurt all year or something and he's bound to be a star again?? I do love Robin the personality and the player, but really White Sox?? How can you keep the guy after what happened this past season? My opinion is Hahn/Kenny/Jerry truly believe there's no difference maker like Madden out there and they are waiting on Girardi's firing by the Yanks after next season. Not when we sign Heyward, trade Q for Arenado, sign Buehrle and bring back Ozzie Guillen as bench coach.

2016 MLB Draft
QUOTE (thxfrthmmrs @ Oct 18, 2015 -> 09:32 PM) It would be interesting to see if they would've taken Rodon if he was still there. But based on stories after the draft, Schwarber was the guy they wanted. But they might have said that so their first round pick didn't feel like a consolation prize. Right, like how the Angels said Trout was #2 on their draft board after Strasburg. Which is why they took Randal Grichuk before him.

Cubs-Mets (Better Team) NLCS
QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 18, 2015 -> 10:18 PM) #WeAreNotAsGood #WeAreGood is such a lame and crappy team-related hashtag. It annoys the hell out of me.

Cubs-Mets (Better Team) NLCS
QUOTE (lord chas @ Oct 18, 2015 -> 10:16 PM) You have to figure finally losing an Arietta start will have the Cubs doubting themselves They might be the most momentum reliant team in baseball. Now they've got deGrom coming for them.

Syndergaard's hair is actually flowing in the wind. He is the God of Thunder. Cubs are f***ed.

Cubs-Mets (Better Team) NLCS
QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Oct 18, 2015 -> 08:04 PM) About what? Syndergaard is dealing and those were strikes. Because it can't be their fault they struck out, duh. QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Oct 18, 2015 -> 08:05 PM) Predictions on what the excuse will be if they lose? Think they go back to doctoring the ball? Unfair umpire is what I'll bet Greg's house on. QUOTE (whitesoxjr27 @ Oct 18, 2015 -> 08:13 PM) Baez with the uh oh "Russell would have made the play and won the game!"

2016 MLB Draft
Wasn't there a rumor going into the draft that Theo coveted Rodon?

QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 17, 2015 -> 01:36 PM) This is the stuff that prevents me from pulling for them in this situation. Just pull for your F'n team and leave everyone alone. I get this s*** down at Mizzou.

Marvel Entertainment Thread
QUOTE (HuskyCaucasian @ Oct 15, 2015 -> 04:40 PM) What Rose rumor? During Rose's "will he or won't he" season, Steve put an article on Flapship about Rose coming back for a winter game. It got traction, blew up internet.

ALCS- Kansas City Royals vs Toronto Blue Jays
QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Oct 16, 2015 -> 08:16 PM) If it's KC and the Cubs, SoxTalk will have a difficult time cheering for the Royals. Certainly cheering for StL against KC would be easier, but everyone's also sick and tired of the Cardinals at this point. I'll bring back the Alex Rios theme song.

Not stopping at a stop sign? Really police?
Greg, you got caught man. That's what happens.

Cubs-Mets (Better Team) NLCS
QUOTE (Middle Buffalo @ Oct 16, 2015 -> 12:08 AM) So, are the Yankees fans supposed to be rooting for the Mets now? I don't know all the rules for fans. I guess I'll call one of the Chicago radio shows. Yes, just like Angels fans were pulling for the Dodgers.

What makes this rumor not as strong is the fact that everyone was speculating it, so it doesn't take much work to get traction. Think Steve's Derrick Rose rumor.

Blue Jays vs Rangers Series thread
QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Oct 14, 2015 -> 06:34 PM) Still think the Blue Jays are the much better team. Imagine them lining up with the Cubs in the World Series. Will set homer records, but the weather in Chicago will probably have taken a turn for the worse by then. The Jays are the number one team the Cubs don't want to face.

White Sox ranked 85th out of 122 major sports franchises
QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Oct 14, 2015 -> 10:37 AM) Sox fans take pride in emptying the stadium when the team sucks because we care more about pure baseball than babes bedecked in bedazzling bikinis blitzing back beers before Bryant bats. A+ alliteration

Cubs-Cards NLDS
QUOTE (AustinIllini @ Oct 14, 2015 -> 10:14 AM) God, they're like Blackhawk fans. I tried getting into hockey the year before they won it all. Really liked Havlat. Oh well. I'll pull for them but won't claim to be a fan/die hard, but you're right. I could probably name more players than most bandwagoners.

If anyone thinks the Cubs don't play by a different set of rules...they're wrong.

Cubs-Cards NLDS
My friend moved to Chicago a year ago and is acting like she's waited a lifetime. Her boyfriend moved THREE WEEKS AGO and is acting like it. They've both told me this feels more like 03 than 07 or 08. What the f***.

NLDS: Dodgers vs. Mets
QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Oct 13, 2015 -> 08:56 PM) I love how Colon is so idolized by MLB fans nowadays. It's like they forgot he's a PED user. So much hypocrisy. Or when he just abandoned our team
