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.

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.

Greg, you got caught man. That's what happens.

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.

QUOTE (Dunt @ Oct 14, 2015 -> 07:02 PM) That Bautista HR and subsequent bat flip was amazing Easily the most bat flip with most swagger, ever.

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.

Can someone explain Buehrle's ejection? I just got home.

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

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.

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***.

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

Yay!

I remember liking the idea of Sandy as manager and Robin as bench coach. Welp.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Oct 13, 2015 -> 11:41 AM) The Cubs could very well end up being the highest bidder, but I think his comments and the Maddon connection are overblown in terms of importance. 99% of the time athletes go to the highest bidder, I don't see why Price would be any different. Because Cubs

QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Oct 13, 2015 -> 12:50 AM) Arenado is not on the block. If he was, you're not getting him for Q. Now you want him and CarGo for Q? That deal would take you Sale, Q, Fullmer, and Abreu. I don't think you realize how much Colorado wants to build around Arenado. I think you honestly have a better shot at getting Stanton. Either which way, out of the midlevel options I really like Murphy & Fowler as well. Just as he is undervaluing Arenado and CarGo, you're severely undervaluing Q, Sale, Fulmer and Abreu.

f***

QUOTE (whitesoxjr27 @ Oct 12, 2015 -> 06:51 PM) :lol: At least it's only 4-2. Welp

Damnit.

I'll miss his writing, but congrats to Kiley.

Seems like Jonah Keri will be one, if we want to look too hard into him responding to Jim Miller's tweet.

This one is separate from the four mentioned, damn. Richard Deitsch ‏@richarddeitsch Via @SInow: @fierman, @Grantland33 founding editorial director, has left to become editorial director of MTV News: http://www.si.com/more-sports/2015/10/11/d...al-broadcasters …
