The Bathroom Dilemma
QUOTE (greg775 @ May 5, 2016 -> 02:44 PM) Exactly. Psychos will do whatever to be satisfied. It's like the crime of exposing oneself. Some people have this weird urge to do it and cops will tell you it's a crime that WILL occur every night in every community. Let me get this straight. People are going to boycott states that pass the restriction law, yet this law will allow me to walk into a women's restroom at a movie theatre and go right up to the sink and start using it and looking around. I don't have to be dressed as a woman; when I'm caught by the usher doing it I say, "I recently began the transition to being a woman; I have a legal right to be in here!!" Seems a harsh penalty to states that want to keep me in this scenario in the men's room. p.s. No offense to the transgendered, really, but do any of you blame me for not walking in the Subway restaurant when I was in my car and saw the man wearing women's high heels and miniskirt walking in? He would have been in line ahead of me and eating there and sorry, I'm human, he grossed me out. The bolded proves to me that the concerns in the italicized are insincere. As with many issues, safety!/children!/family! is code for "we just don't f***ing like those people."

Sports Media discussion
I was at the makeup game against Detroit in September 2012. Easily a playoff atmosphere. Mully's claim has no basis in reality.

ERIK! You're gonna give the ball to Erik? He is a bad, bad man!

QUOTE (Thad Bosley @ May 4, 2016 -> 09:47 PM) ESPN glorifying the cheater Ortiz tonight and all of the season the way they are is beyond nauseating. Yeah, his universal belovedness has been confusing to me for a long time now.

Some tough luck on balls in play tonight. Just not our night.

A fair and balanced soliloquy about Jose Abreu, by ron
QUOTE (ron883 @ May 4, 2016 -> 09:34 PM) You'll see, I'm going to be right. Abreu can't lay off the breaking ball outside. I'm going to bump this up when he is in a slump, and I'll bump it at the end of the year when he puts up his worst year yet statistically. That's the spirit.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 4, 2016 -> 09:34 PM) He had 9IP in 15 appearances. That's a loogy. Did you look at his game log?

Duke isn't a LOOGY and he shouldn't be behind Jennings. Go have a look at his game log, he was rolling before tonight.

2016 Democratic Thread
Remember like three weeks ago how you said you were ignoring everything about the election and you were a happier person and we didn't have to scroll past another Hillary rant? What happened to that?

2016 AL Central catch-all thread
QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ May 4, 2016 -> 01:28 PM) Nationals up 4-0 on the Royals already and there's still nobody out in the top of the 1st. Kris Medlen is sure working out for them.

Who will be the 5th starter at the end of the season
I think they'll make a minor acquisition. Who that is, I don't know.
-
5/4 Game thread: Boston, 7:10pm, WPWR/ESPN
They only have like 5 games' worth of a sample, but the Red Sox are last in the AL against LHP by a wide margin. Link In other words we shoulda given Danks that start.

Idea to improve MLB
QUOTE (bmags @ May 4, 2016 -> 09:27 AM) Thought of this last night as I was watching Red Sox pitchers again spending 30 minutes between pitches and TWO challenges that just made my wife hate baseball after a great game to that point: - Every inning that the Red Sox or yankees slow down to a crawl and ruin young peoples love for the game MLB forces: - Red Sox to pay another $1million to Pablo Sandoval - Yankees to pay another $1million to Alex Rodriguez It both punishes the teams but also should work with the MLBPA as the money is getting funneled to players, one fat and the other a douchebag. Thoughts? Back when I still gave a s*** about following Bill Simmons and listening to his podcasts, it used to drive me crazy when he'd complain about how long baseball games are. It's like yes, they're long, but buddy you only watch Red Sox games.

Early Trade Speculation
QUOTE (GreenSox @ May 4, 2016 -> 08:30 AM) Heck no one is even talking about Frazier, the super super slugger, and his Dunn-like output. This is so very far off. Do you even watch games? Do you at least check the numbers before you post stuff like this?

AND THAT'S A WHITE SOX WINNER!!!
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 3, 2016 -> 10:06 PM) White Sox a season high 11 games over .500 White Sox the first AL team to 19 wins, no other team has more than 15 in the AL. Q has 5 decisions in 6 starts. This is the most shocking stat of all.

Early Trade Speculation
QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ May 3, 2016 -> 03:59 PM) It would nice to see Texas or Anaheim really take it to the AL West. I'd gladly give up Anderson for Gray and/or Felix (probably cost more than just Anderson for Gray). I wouldn't touch Felix with a 50-foot pole.
