People really need to learn that Rogers may be the dumbest person associated with baseball. I remember him saying the Sox were fools for not throwing something stupid like $20M/yr at Daisuke.

The 90's Stars: PG: Payton, Stockton, Hardaway, Johnson, Price SG: Jordan, Drexler, Dumars, Richmond, Miller SF: Pippin, Hill, Wilkins, Mullin, Schrempf PF: Malone, Barkley, Rodman, Kemp, Grant C: Olajuwon, Ewing, Mourning, Shaq, Robinson To say that LeBron would be a third team All-NBA with Pippin, Hill, Malone, and Barkley is not THAT outrageous.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 8, 2013 -> 03:03 AM) It's a bit ironic the last couple of seasons that Herm Schneider has become renowned for keeping players healthy. If you look at that 1998-2002 group, almost all of them were wiped out. Jason Stumm, Lorenzo Barcelo, Jon Rauch (was never the same after the labrum injury), Jim Parque, Mike Sirotka, Rob Purvis, Corwin Malone, Rocky Biddle (he went on to become a decent reliever with the Expos), Kris Honel, Danny Wright, James Baldwin and Matt Ginter. The only ones who became "successful" were the least highly touted of the group....Buehrle, Josh Fogg and Chad Bradford. Then there was Kip Wells, Garland and Matt Guerrier. (Of course, Garland wasn't our draft pick, he was the Cubs'). Then, of some of our recent pitchers, Hudson and Brandon McCarthy have had horrible luck with injuries, Clayton Richard some problems as well...Sergio Santos, it has almost been like a curse when we try to draft and develop our own pitchers. How is that ironic?

Also woo, runs!

QUOTE (danman31 @ Jun 7, 2013 -> 03:57 PM) I think they will probably come out with a $300 Last of Us bundle. They have an Uncharted 3 bundle for that price. You can probably get the Uncharted trilogy for $60 or $70 right now and Journey is worth playing for $10. For anyone that doesn't have a Blu Ray player, those games at that price would be worth it IMO. True. Lately it seems that Sony just keeps churning out great exclusive after great exclusive. Really need to buy thatgamecompany though. Should have done it after flOwer

QUOTE (flippedoutpunk @ Jun 7, 2013 -> 02:24 PM) Naughty Dog is soo good. Reason enough to own a playstation imo. I feel the Last of Us will sell plentg of consoles, despite the new generation.

I'm stupidly excited for Last of Us. Bought every ND game at launch since Jak and Daxter. This will be the same.

I'd like to lower my expectations.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jun 6, 2013 -> 01:31 AM) Well on his way to "I think Gordon's full potential is .300, 25 HR, 110 RBI (per year) " from that risen from the dead thread in which you posted . What thread??? Edit: Just saw it's back. Damn, that's a throwback.

The Slayer hath cometh.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jun 5, 2013 -> 03:26 PM) I still don't think anyone can hang with Jordan, in their primes, one on one. An incredibly talented and versatile scorer who also played incredible defense? No chance anybody beats him. The only guy who might is Magic. Thing with Jordan is not only is he the greatest scorer of all time, but also the best defensive SG of all time. Elite level of play on both sides of the ball. The only other players who could claim best defender at their positions and also elite scorers are Duncan and Olajuwon. That has to count for something. Also, as long as we're throwing out all-time starting five...here's mine based on fit. PG: Magic SG: Jordan SF: Bird PF: Duncan C : Olajuwon And anyone that suggests LeBron, Bird is a waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better fit for such a team.

How to punish teams with roiders: 1) Add a tax to contracts of players caught ONCE THEY SIGN A NEW DEAL. So with something like a 50% tax, let's say Gio gets a $20M contract. Whoever gives it to him has to now give $10M to MLB charities. It'll discourage signing roiders. 2) Each player caught roiding with a team causes that team to lose a draft pick.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 5, 2013 -> 12:03 AM) I don't really care about rebounds. A 6'8 260 pound F is supposed to be a better rebounder than a 6'6 215 pound SG. But LeBron is no doubt a better passer and has better court awareness than MJ. Jordan: Wait for the double team, find the open man. LeBron can do that and run an offense. For sure he's a better passer. Court awareness, that I'm not so sure of. But using assists to compare a guy that plays point on offense to a guy that played off-ball to the LeBron prototype.

ESPN: LeBron is easily close enough to overtake Jordan for GOAT. Also, I hate when they use assists and rebounds as an argument against Jordan. So a guard who played off-ball until it was clutch time has less rebounds and assists than a forward who plays the point? No s***? The one season Jordan played point he averaged 32.5/8/8. That's better than BronBron.

After this series, Duncan moves into Top 5 of all time, knocking out Wilt. LeBron meanwhile will drop to 11 and Kobe will move up again.

I'm beginning to feel like some ramifications should start happening to the teams. The Tigers reaped the benefits of Peralta last year. Brewers made money pff Braun's MVP

No marketable stars.

Behind the glory of Gordon Beckham's hair and the Mighty Resurrection of Danks the White Sox shall find victory. Humber perfect'd these b****es last year. Time to win.

Time for Beckham's MVP run to begin.
