The Democrat Thread
I've said several times Donald Trump is playing the game to get elected and that he'll probably renege on everything if he gets the nomination. You just can't be fanatical and expect to win the presidency. It just isn't going to happen.

White Sox acquire Brett Lawrie
Is it just me or does Lawrie scream mediocre 3B? I don't know about giving up anything significant for him. We can go sign an Asian 3B. Keep the prospects.

White Sox exploring Nobuhiro Matsuda
QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ Dec 8, 2015 -> 04:06 PM) Japan is pretty much on the other side of the planet from San Diego and Chicago. Are there non-stops to Tokyo out of SD? I know there are out of ORD. Not that it matters. If he's coming to the USA he's going to be far from home. Oh and I don't think a Japanese player is going to feel right at home down at Cermak and Wentworth. Not all asians are the same lol. There are a few suburbs that are crawling with Japanese people. You're the racist here.

Religion and Gun Attacks
QUOTE (greg775 @ Dec 8, 2015 -> 09:50 PM) Have your read your HR handbooks? People are told to NOT say Merry Christmas. You are not supposed to do it. It's Happy Holidays. If Donald Trump wins, at least it's a victory over the PC police. Also what about all the comments from people who have said their kids are in Winter Plays not Christmas plays. You will NOT see mangers and the story of the nativity in any public school I've been around the last 10 years. WE CANNOT OFFEND ANYBODY nowadays. That's why it's cool Trump is going after Muslims. Somebody has to acknowledge all these DEATHS. Of course not all are bad. Of course we shouldn't be beating up people because they are different from us. BUT WE MUST PROTECT THE USA. Trump is right about that. I'm going on the el tomorrow and telling everyone merry XMAS. I guarantee not one person gets offended.

Chicago has a decent size asian population too, nowhere near the west coast but decent.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Dec 8, 2015 -> 11:57 AM) Didn't know we won the WS in 2012. That year still pisses me off. The Sox probably do win the world series if they didn't forget how to hit. Good pitching and defense that year.

Religion and Gun Attacks
I'm not really seeing it either. From my experience it seems people are just looking for a reason to get offended for no reason. I still don't understand the starbucks cup fiasco and I consider myself a relatively intelligent person. If you go looking for the trouble, you're bound to find it.

Religion and Gun Attacks
QUOTE (greg775 @ Dec 7, 2015 -> 05:58 PM) I find it hard to believe in this gawdforsaken conservative state I NEVER hear Merry Christmas (except at church) and always hear Happy Holidays and you guys who live in big cities claim I'm wrong. The PC police are out big-time over not offending anybody who does not celebrate Christmas. Festivus is a cooler name anyway. It does bum me out that PC has taken over. That's one reason I want Trump to win. This country would be wise to stay far the f*** away from religious zealots in politics and stick to making the country run. America survives because it's a beacon of diversity for all to come and enjoy. The moment this country trots down the theocracy path, it'll be downhill from there. America has become strong because it can nitpick the brightest minds of the world to come here.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 7, 2015 -> 04:09 PM) Totally agree. I love the mindf*** they used for the plot twist in the season finale. Great writing. I just started watching it. It's really trippy and it might not be a simple enough show for people to follow what's going on.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Dec 7, 2015 -> 02:54 PM) I stopped watching Homeland after season 2, is it worth picking up again? I didn't tune into season 3 because I heard bad things. Season 3 was pretty bad. Season 1 was awesome and I thought 4 was went well. Season 5 is absolutely great!

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Dec 7, 2015 -> 01:27 PM) It's right up there with Season 1. I was a little upset about the whole , but then I read an article from an expert basically saying it's totally legit and not just a Hollywood gimmick. ? They use pretty legit chemistry on the show including how to make the . This is pretty much my world. I don't make weaponized stuff but I make antidotes and other things.

QUOTE (buhbuhburrrrlz @ Dec 7, 2015 -> 12:50 AM) That Toronto game was a good one. Curry and Lowry both with 40+ point games. Guess it's up to the Pacers or this could keep going for a while. The Pacers are pretty tough at home but I think the Warriors win. They have too many damn weapons!

QUOTE (DrunkBomber @ Dec 6, 2015 -> 06:44 PM) While were at it, heres one from yesterday of the cops killing a guy seemingly after he was going down from being tased. For some reason I doubt this one will get as much press though. He had more time than Laquan McDonald

This is just brutal. I think the defense giving up a 50+ yard TD to a QB was the worst.

Another shooting: San Bernadino
It's kind of sad we are becoming more and more numb to these types of tragedies. It's just business as usual until it will hit close to home.
