QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Feb 19, 2017 -> 09:08 PM) Has easily replaced Shaw. He's better than Shaw I think. Team is clicking and it's gonna be a damn shame that the Wild decided to go on an insane streak and we'll get the Blues in the 1st round again. Playoff format is so dumb.

Illinois has got some big time football recruits this weekend. Hoping Lovie and co can make an impact on these young men and start to build something.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Feb 16, 2017 -> 08:16 AM) That "other" team was completely built around the player whose knee exploded. Giannis Antetokounmpo is a 22 year old monster and has the highest upside of anyone in the entire NBA. How do you ignore him in your reponse? You know how the NBA works? ELITE f***ING TALENT. The Bucks have it. The next KD has already fallen in their laps. Now please, go educate yourself and then begin responding. K thanks. Let me know when Giannis develops a jump shot, then you can compare him to KD.

Bears resign OL Eric Kusk to a two year deal. Good depth signing.

QUOTE (Sox-35th @ Feb 15, 2017 -> 08:10 AM) #bannergate I voted for the kids, but I figure go Moncada, Anderson, and Jose Abreu Or you can just go legends like Thomas, Fox, Minoso Probably can add Rodon to that too.

Suggestions: Put players on there that are currently on the squad like Quintana, Abreu, Frazier? Or should we put the kids on there like Moncada, Giolito, Kopech, Collins?

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Feb 14, 2017 -> 07:19 PM) The report on why this happened really makes me want to punch Vince in the face. What is the report?

Apparently Cardinals RHP Alex Reyes didn't pass his physical for ST and will not report to camp yet. Don't know what is wrong with him. If he is out, possible Q to Cardinals? Also, just creating discussion to think of different packages from a different team finally. I think I'd do Weaver, Bader, Kelly, and Perez for Q

Jason Mastrodonato ‏@JMastrodonato 2h2 hours ago More Andrew Benintendi said his agent called him right before the Chris Sale trade. "You'll know in the next 2 minutes if you're staying or not."

Thought the Orton-Harper match was fantastic. I actually enjoyed the Bliss-Naomi match, didn't like Bliss losing it though

Bulls were short handed, but they are still an embarrassment. If anyone has the video of the 4 on 1 the Bulls had and MCW throws it away, everyone's reaction was priceless. The Bulls might be the worst run organization in sports. Top 5 easily.

Legion Hoops ‏@LegionHoops 4m4 minutes ago More Bulls and 76ers are discussing a trade for Jahlil Okafor.

Rum Bunter ‏@rumbunter 12h12 hours ago More Pirate prospects in Baseball America's new top 100: 6 - Austin Meadows 22 - Mitch Keller 23 - Tyler Glasnow 35 - Josh Bell 55 - Kevin Newman Rum Bunter ‏@rumbunter 1h1 hour ago More @rbrockets They offered 3 top 50 overall prospects, another one of their top 10 prospects, a current MLB SP, and another current MLB player I don't believe this for one second

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Feb 8, 2017 -> 01:56 PM) He also basically said they are going nuts in free agency What did he say that make you think this?

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Feb 6, 2017 -> 10:18 AM) Go... .274/.353/.402 with 7 HR's, 23 SB's, and 2.1 WAR Those are near Adam Eaton numbers lol

QUOTE (fathom @ Feb 5, 2017 -> 10:04 PM) Makes me think Q stays lol. Jason Hammel signing with the Royals is an indication that Q stays? 0 chance. No way Sox were giving him a 2 year deal. Other pitchers still on the market just like him.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Feb 3, 2017 -> 12:36 PM) Regarless of if it could be traded or not, why would the 75th pick in the draft interest anyone? Get a player that has been developed and can be projected far more accurately. Agreed. Give me the catcher Stubbs in place for that final piece.

Martes/Tucker/Reed or Perez/Stubbs is what I would do.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Feb 2, 2017 -> 02:56 PM) My ideal scenario would be to trade down and grab the best safety available, get some more picks, use a 2nd and 3rd (following year) on Jimmy G and then obviously use some FA money. Could all be a disaster, but I'd be okay swinging for it. Remember free agency happens before the draft. A lot will be clear more when that happens in terms of the Bears needs.

Martes/Tucker/Reed/Stubbs is what I would do.

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Feb 1, 2017 -> 02:29 PM) Lovie has the money and smarts to have a dedicated recruiting staff, we never had a database of recruits (or it was very limited) and most of the data collection was done by the assistants. Now we have personnel doing the dirty work and coaches doing the evals, just a way better setup than before. It allows us to find those guys, recruits like Nate Hobbs that we just got, and then we have the HC to seal the deal. Gives me so much hope for the future under Lovie. Whitman has done a great job, now just needs to hire a competent basketball coach

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Feb 1, 2017 -> 10:55 AM) Rumors that Illinois might pry Bobby Roundtree away from a heavy Indiana lean. Illinois lands Roundtree. Wow.

Rumors that Illinois might pry Bobby Roundtree away from a heavy Indiana lean.

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Jan 31, 2017 -> 05:56 PM) Nate Jones fits exactly what hey are looking for. Jones would make more sense for Toronto than Robertson would. Anyone care to take a stab at what Toronto would offer for Jones? Reid-Foley, McGuire, Tellez too much to ask? Sounds a bit high, not sure. If i'm trading Jones to the Jays, Urena is coming back in the deal.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Jan 31, 2017 -> 11:14 AM) Lovie will be fine. They'll never be Ohio State or Michigan but there's no reason they can't be Iowa. Honestly, that is all I'm asking for. Consistently around 7-9 wins with the occasional great season of 10-11 and I'll be perfectly content. Looks like Illinois just landed another commitment too. Nate McNeal (Director of relations) is hinting at another one after Williams.
