QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Feb 19, 2016 -> 06:11 AM) If she's 18 and in high-school then it's really weird no matter how old your are. If she's in college or at least not living with her parents, I think it would be socially acceptable into your mid 20's. No matter what, some people will judge you for seeing or being with a girl who is barely an adult. I agree with this. If she's in HS, people will definitely judge. If she's in college, experiencing things on her own, you're good.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 09:58 PM) That is very tough. I feel for you because obviously you don't want what she wants and ultimately unless you give in, this is going to end with a breakup. And I would think she believes that she's found her husband when in reality she may have to start all over with somebody else again. Does she have a good job? Do you have a good job yet? She has a good job. I'm still currently in school, graduating in May. I'm researching what I want to do with my life lol. We actually made it work while going to 2 different schools too. We met at Aurora University, then I transferred after 2 years and were still kicking. Just now that we got older, she's expecting a ring and all that. Doesn't help that all our friends and their mothers are getting engaged/married. QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 09:59 PM) Damn, you're in a tough spot. Probably a silly question but have you both Sat down and tried to find some middle ground or is it pretty much about what she wants? Yeah we have. I always say I'll try to live with her after graduation, but she won't accept that as an answer. She says I have money, you don't have to pay. Then I always say yeah, but you'll boss me around and say this is your place and la la la ect. Much like the sandwich thing lol. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 11:41 PM) it's possible that the dude is legimately terrible at making a sandwich I make a great sandwich.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 09:38 PM) Great job walking out of the kitchen! Did she realize she was out of line? Or did she simply ignore your awesome response? You can't let her move in with you until she is tested some more. If she keeps pulling s*** like that, she definitely deserves the boot. Life is too short to be with somebody who would critique how you put mayo on a sandwich. No she didn't realize it. I just ignored her after that. It's been 5 years and she wants to get married within the next 2 and I just don't think I'm ready for that. On top of that, she wants to have kids before were 30 (we both just turned 24). I'm just not ready for all that right now and it's been 5 years, I do love and care about her, but it seems like we just want different things in our lives at this moment. It sucks.

QUOTE (lord chas @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 09:40 PM) Will there be any new food options at the Cell this year? If there is, I'm sure the Sox will tweet/facebook/instagram them out closer to when the season starts. I'm pretty sure they did that last year too.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 05:38 PM) So since my last post, I traded Eduardo Escobar and a draft pick for Kole Calhoun, drafted Ian Happ, Trent Clark, and Renato Nunez, and picked up Brad Miller from free agency. Here is my team as it sits now. C - Posey/Vogt 1B - Encarnacion/Vogt/Bell 2B - Pedroia/Lawrie/Happ SS - Russell/Miller/Swanson/Bregman 3B - Seager/Lawrie/Nunez OF - Kemp/Pence/Inciarte/Piscotty/Yelich/Calhoun/Miller/Winker/Happ/Clark SP - Sale/Price/Bumgarner/Hamels/Tanaka/Quintana/Chen/Finnegan/Norris RP - Papelbon/Ramos/Street/Perkins/Tolleson Thoughts? Fantasy wise, you're offense isn't very good outside of Posey. Encarnacion is alright if he can stay healthy, also getting older. Your middle infield is average. Seager is pretty good, but there are better 3B out there. You're OF isn't that good either with your best guy being Kemp. Your pitching is fantastic though. I'd trade from there and get another bat.

Well, the Bulls still suck

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 07:49 PM) The Bears have done nothing to prove otherwise. The Sox and Bulls have legitimate stars on their teams. I'd consider Pernell McPhee and Alshon Jeffery stars. Pace and Fox had a good 1st year considering everything. Good draft, free agency was average, development in young players was a huge positive. I definitely trust the Bears organization now than the Bulls.

QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 06:57 PM) Cliff Corcoran of SI just called what the Sox did with their catching situation "the worst move if he offseason" on MLBN. True story. Went on to talk about Flowers being a league average catcher with elite pitch framing, Avila shouldn't be catching anymore and Navarro is terrible defensively. ODowd responds...you're really digging deep with that one . Saw that and I laughed.

These 2 need to sign already. We've been talking about these 2 to Baltimore for 2-3 weeks now. Getting annoying, just like the rest of this off season since the Frazier trade. (I did love the Latos and Albers signing)

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 01:45 PM) Ok that's just super f***ed. Was she trolling you? No lol

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 12:19 PM) Holy s*** dude, seriously? Wow. That would absolutely drive me up the wall if my lady critiqued everything I did and she would have been gone a long time ago. Thankfully, she's not at all like that and we get along like two peas in a pod. Reading the stuff in this thread just makes me even more greatful for the relationship the little lady and I have. Yeah, I started laughing and then she wanted to show me how to do it. I was just like, "are you serious right now?" Just insane.

Traded Garrett Richards ($12) for Brian McCann ($8)

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 11:51 AM) Apparently Gasol has been told that he will probably not be traded, and might even be extended. The Bulls are in NBA hell.

What have scouts said on how Hernandez game will translate to the MLB?

Bulls in discussions for Shabazz Napier

Whitman killed that press conference. #InWhitmanWeTrust

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Feb 17, 2016 -> 05:31 PM) Thanks. We met and there was a great instant connection and we started dating, but just the day-to-day things weren't compatible. Mostly centered around I'm extremely laid back and she's a little more high strung (not in a bad way, just a description). We just didn't really connect, every thing I wore was critiqued, she'd always want to go out and do "fun" things and dinner and a movie, or an occasional relaxing night wasn't really for her. So just things like that, as you said "personality conflict". That really sums it up. We discussed issues, I'd say I'd try harder to do more "fun" things, but it just didn't work out. Weird mix of, damn I miss her, but fully realizing it would never work, even if one of us changed for a short time all the issues would pop up in short order. How long were you dating? I'm kind of in the same boat that everything I do is critiqued. I've been dating my girlfriend for 5 years and she wants to move in after I graduate in May, but I really don't want to because I don't have a job lined up yet and no money for rent on a place. Just last week she said I was spreading mayonnaise on my sandwich wrong. I dropped the knife and walked out of the kitchen.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 10:10 AM) The match itself would suck and I'm not usually a nostalgia guy but I'd actually love Taker-Sting for whatever reason. I don't ever want to see Goldberg again though. Did you not like Goldberg?

Outside of the Cubs, the Bulls are my least favorite team. I like them, I'll root for them, but they are ran by morons.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 09:38 AM) People can b**** at ozzfest all they want, but if the Bulls don't move a piece or 2,particularly Pau who could get you something, it is a GarPax fail. I can't blame them for not trading Snell. Someone would actually have to want him. I completely agree.

Jared Allen retires.

We all know nothing is going to happen.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 08:46 AM) From a Sacramento board If we somehow got Okafor to come back home, I'll pick him up from the airport.

QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 06:46 AM) Polish Sausage pregame, funnel cake later. Where I had my seats last year, there was a funnel cake stand right outside my section. Loved it. Didn't miss a pitch.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 08:18 AM) The Dodgers need him as insurance for Puig, Pederson and Crawford. He was their best all-around outfielder the second half of the season. Plus, he's very expensive...and aging. Too much to pay for a platoon bat. They don't need Ethier. The Dodgers also have Thompson, Van Slyke, and Hernandez out there. One of them has to go. I wonder what the asking price for Puig is.
