BlackSox13 Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 The only rationale I can come up with is the Sox looking at a Danks for Nova swap straight up. Gives the Sox 3 lefties and 2 eighties in the rotation and frees up money to make a splash for a FA position player? It's a stretch, I know but that's all I can come with off the top of my head.

DirtySox Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Perhaps a value build and flip at deadline candidate. Probably a good idea considering the season's outlook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of reminds me of incarceratedbob. He didn't "report" it. He saw it from NY Times. Aaron Leming is a friend of mine and isn't shady at all. He has had to deal with s***heads quite frequently because he has a very good Bears source and people can't understand that.

Kind of reminds me of incarceratedbob. Lemming has been the best / more accurate person out their when it comes to following the Bears (so not sure what is shady about it). Maybe you should spend less time getting your panties in a bundle when someone on twitter reports / mentions something. These people do the best that they can and the alternative is for none of the info to exist and just wait to hear what actually happens. I also hate how good people with inside info eventually stop sharing such info because people react / respond to them like you. Reality is the info is going to more often than not not come true and people should just understand that. I've been wrong on inside info and I've been right.

Apparently dissenting opinions are treated with hostility. So sorry I dont believe he's the best when it comes to the Bears. If you dont like that I dont know what to tell you.

If you treat people who have inside info like a dick, what do you expect? It has nothing to do with this site, rather you consistent willingness to go bash media people on the twittersphere. If that gives you kicks, great, but I find it rather pathetic. I'm not certain what the dissenting opinion is related to? I'm purely talking about a track record you have of bashing the media and individuals with those sort of opinions as well as the track record to blast them on twitter where you can do it in a nameless / faceless fashion. It is pathetic. Their is no other possible conclusion to come to other than that. This is not debating whether X or Y player is a better fit or which scenario is more reasonable. And when it comes to members of this site, I'll protect the right of any poster with some legit inside info who shares that info and will take offense when people want to "bash" said individual. Said bashing just ruins it for everyone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Name 5 media members I've gone out of my way on Twitter to bash Or if you cant do that name 5 regular people("with those sort of opinions") on Twitter I've gone out of my way to bash.
