QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 29, 2017 -> 12:25 PM) FOX Sports: MLB‏Verified account @MLBONFOX 9m9 minutes ago #Mets’ Jeurys Familia suspended 15 games under MLB’s domestic-violence policy Hopefully he gets the help he needs and no one gets hurt, but the irony of a guy named Familia getting suspended for domestic violence doesn't escape me.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Mar 30, 2017 -> 06:25 PM) Keeping Gar/Pax makes no sense either. Not a good mix all around. They spend way too much time burning the bridges they are currently using.

Abreu (Sorry, new at this)

Good for Scotty Pods. I hear he's a likable guy. I always liked him as a player and I'll never forget his accomplishments in 2005

QUOTE (bmags @ Mar 30, 2017 -> 12:04 PM) Yes they'd be much better off turning away the number one recruit in the country WHO GREW UP COLUMBIA MISSOURI. Ben Simmons wasn't bad for LSU. Jonny Jones was. No reason why Antonio Blakeney and others couldn't pull that team up, he was just a bad coach. You can say Cuonzo's teams have bad ruts, but he's not Jones for godsake Full disclosure: I don't care about Mizzou. The Illinois/Mizzou rivalry is entirely manufactured and not real. I'm just not enamored with that one year and done five star guy for a struggling program like Mizzou.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 30, 2017 -> 07:03 AM) Brandon Saad (CLS): 22 goals Richard Panik (CHI): 22 goals I still think Saad is still a better player, but you can't beat Panik's value

QUOTE (raBBit @ Mar 30, 2017 -> 03:56 PM) I'm not sure it's one way or the other, I wouldn't have tried to talk to my girlfriend if I wasn't attracted to her but hips seem kind of nitpicky. Agreed. The thought of worrying about hips is a bit of a Stretch!

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Mar 27, 2017 -> 12:59 PM) I'll have my model 3 in about a year or less, I'll let you know how it is. I'll bet you two tickets to the 2019 Cubs series at the Rate you won't have a Model 3 by April 15 of 2018

QUOTE (bmags @ Mar 30, 2017 -> 03:23 PM) If Q wins the cy young people might start to think he's a solid #2 starter. God if we could go into the deadline being bad but still have awesome Q. Tantalizing to say the least.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Mar 30, 2017 -> 09:18 AM) Can't wait for them to be decent for one year then fall off the map again (ala LSU) That's the exact comparison I would make as well. Cuonzo is all set to underperform. I'm not sure a one and done is what Mizzou needs right now with a serial underperformer at the helm.

Too bad about Illinois State. I was looking forward to Illinois smacking them.

QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ Mar 21, 2017 -> 10:55 AM) Does this mean anything re: win-now vs. win-later? Not really, right? Probably no change. Rebuild still.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 21, 2017 -> 10:09 AM) Ha. Unfortunately Beckham is the only other hitting prospect the Sox have had in like 10 years, so what can you do? Ain't that the truth. Yuck

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 21, 2017 -> 09:32 AM) It's 6 years. For every guy that makes it look like the Sox walked all over them, there's 15 Gordon Beckhams or Brett Lawries. Anderson has a young family. He is no lock. Now he's set for life. Pretty easy to see why they would take it. Besides, it isn't like it is that much more he is leaving on the table. He's not even eligible for arb yet. The option years are where he really loses money if he's a star, and he still would get 8 figures a year. Even if he busts, that's not a lot of money. QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 21, 2017 -> 09:49 AM) Just like the Astros GM walked all over Jon Singelton http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/astros-r...ecedented-deal/ It's still not a big deal.

QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 21, 2017 -> 09:25 AM) Two option years to make it over 50 mil. Even better. I seriously wonder how agents let Rick Hahn walk all over their guys. Hahn basically says "Don't bet on yourself, take money"

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Mar 21, 2017 -> 08:50 AM) Wow, could be a steal, could be a mistake. We have no idea. If he is as good as we think he is, it will be an amazing deal. It's a steal. The mistake would be so small by comparison. Great signing. It's not an expensive contract. This is why Rick Hahn is our GM

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Mar 20, 2017 -> 09:03 PM) Mizzou wants Tilmon/Walker. Illinois might hire La Lumiere coach and Bowen would come with but Underwood wants a coach with a longer resume because they have the biggest assistant pool in the B1G. Some pretty big names being floated for the last 2 assistant jobs. Underwood bringing 1 guy with. Walker likely to stay but not confirmed. A part of me wants them to hire whatever keeps Tilmon, but in real life if there are better options available, it might be worth doing that even if he walks.

QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ Mar 19, 2017 -> 01:47 PM) I'm thinking of starting a go-fund-me to put a hit out on the singer and everyone that wrote/shot/had anything to do with the DirecTV March Madness commercials. Anyone else interested? I think it's hilarious how the Purdue guy is working a toll booth. What an insult to Boiler grads.

The ACC is trash. 9 teams in the tournament and only 1 in the sweet 16?

Please just let Duke lose

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 19, 2017 -> 08:25 PM) Well that go out of hand quickly. I don't how the hell the review confirmed the 2nd goal, Toews looked so offsides but I'll take it. He was definitely offsides, but you take what is given to you

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Mar 19, 2017 -> 06:48 PM) But... Bust... I stand corrected. He's trash

QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 19, 2017 -> 06:17 PM) Wow, Moncada on fire .317/.391/.683 in the spring

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 18, 2017 -> 10:17 PM) And tonight for the ABC match up LeBron, Kyrie, and Love all rested too, Clippers win by 30 I'm becoming increasingly convinced that the league needs to cut 15 games from the season. The networks have a huge beef here. These contracts are drawn up so players play in the flexed games. Either Cut 15 games Legislate out sitting your whole team Allow the networks to last minute flex games I'm not pro-network, but sitting players for a national telecast is a complete scam.

Great hire. Retaining walker should be enough to keep Tilmon unless there's a real philosophical difference between Underwood and Tilmon (not sure that's possible)
