f*** the Twins and the horse they rode in on.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 24, 2012 -> 10:18 AM) Why would they want to move him? They want to win and he is a valuable piece to winning. They want to move some of the bums it appears. You're joking right? Sanchez was one of their better starters for the past few years. Infante was an all-star second basemen who's having a respectable year. Hanley Ramirez could very well be their best player in franchise history (him or Beckett). And they don't value winning. Never have, never will. They value $$$.

Well, if the Marlins throw in any money for those last two years, they'd save money overall. QUOTE (103 mph screwball @ Jul 25, 2012 -> 08:52 AM) I would absolutely love getting MB56 back. I get goose bumps thinking about his return to the Cell in the race to the playoffs. That 18.5 million salary would be excessive for the last 2 years of his contract, but that means the Sox should be able to get him without giving up anyone from this years team or too much damage from the farm. Unless KW can get Buehrle for like, the most insignificant prospect ever, and thinks it puts them over the top this year. Then maybe you consider that contract (overall, it's not as bad, just those last two years look terrible).

Well...Sanchez, Infante, and Ramirez are gone. Think we could get in on Johnson or Buehrle? Maybe we flip Floyd for a prospect, send that prospect to Marlins for Buehrle. But they throw in cash for the last two years and we throw in a low level 'spect of our own or a BP arm (not Reed)?

I'd take Buehrle if the Marlins throw in cash. Also, man, Oz is gonna have a bunch of rookies soon. Uh oh.

QUOTE (knightni @ Jul 24, 2012 -> 11:50 PM) Hulk will be eased out of the film. If crowds hadn't adored Mark Ruffalo, I could see that. But Mark Ruffalo has them reconsidering a Hulk solo film and is one of Marvel's big guns. I see Hawkeye being phased out before Hulk.

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Jul 24, 2012 -> 11:36 PM) Omer Asik ‏@AsikOmer Thank You Chicago for having me in your city for 2 years! So grateful for the opportunity and the great fans and support. I will miss you. Goodbye Omie We hardly knew ye... We are going to miss his defense and rebounding before all is said and done, mark it down. Quote me. Ok, quoted you. Yeah, we'll miss his defense and rebounding, but he's not worth $15M.

QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Jul 24, 2012 -> 08:19 PM) If all of these possible charecters who are mentioned to be in the movies, I have a hard time believing that Marvel would actually put 24 super heroes in 1 movie. That would be enormously crowded for one movie. All those heroes will be in the movies listed. I just basically said they'll have a roster of twenty five to pick from for Avengers 2.

QUOTE (Reddy @ Jul 22, 2012 -> 03:47 PM) he's a tool and i hate him as a person and a player. won't root for him to do well, but as a GM, and from a purely baseball perspective, KW made a good move. This.

Donkey Kong is back.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 24, 2012 -> 06:08 PM) Interesting theories. Wow u are bad to the bone. Just kidding. That's serious stuff. Glad you were safe. It was a rather scary moment. Fortunately the guy that came by was bluffing.

Greg, I'm guessing you've never stared down a guy who's likely packing. It's not exactly a moment where you feel in control and ready to hulk out. Even though I'm from this coddled generation, I've had that. And a gun scare at my high school. Got followed in school (without being told) by a vice principal because they were pretty sure I was going to get assaulted amidst racial tensions in the town (black superintendent stole district funds, my dad was school board pres.) But yeah, that first example was when a gang threatened to shoot up my friend's house because of s*** his brother did. I had a baseball and a few sharp rocks.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 24, 2012 -> 01:04 PM) Soler hit his first homer in a Cubs' jersey. Yay for him! f*** him too.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 23, 2012 -> 08:03 PM) This is so two days late. He had a hit the day I put it ...I think

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 24, 2012 -> 12:46 PM) The lakers won the NBA championship 3 seasons ago. Their 2011 campaign was an embarrassment, and at full strength, I don't see how the bulls don't win this year against them as well. It's a shame we never got to play boston in the playoffs, but I'm confident we would have beat them in 2011, but maybe their spunkiness beats us this year. For some reason Derrick's injury has people re-imagining the bulls as much worse than they were. THANK. YOU.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 24, 2012 -> 12:42 PM) [Jordan didn't win a title for five years after that] [Heat aren't the 80's Celtics & Lakers]

Bulls win the ring this year because Rose has the greatest return from injury since Jordan's foot.

Also, Bulls are going to be wearing the 90's alternate (black pinstripes!)

Trade inflation or him just being promoted, I like it.

f*** the Twins and the horse they rode in on.

Can Johnson demand that high a price? Buehrle is out pitching him this year.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jul 23, 2012 -> 11:01 PM) Current MLB ranks: '3 true outcome' much? Oh, Adam you're so Dunny right now it's unreal. Love ya, big man. I found this hilarious for some reason.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jul 21, 2012 -> 10:48 AM) From this day forth Konerko shall hit like The Professor again. And his disciples in the line up shall follow. So it is written, so it shall be.

The Professor has returned.
