QUOTE (lostfan @ May 10, 2016 -> 09:48 AM) I think there's a lot less things that are "canon" than people think are actually canon, cuz stuff changes from writer to writer and movie to movie. Batman for example has a much shorter list than people think: -His parents were murdered in front of him in an alley when he was very young -He's a billionaire who was raised by his butler Alfred after the murder and as an adult he carried this trauma with him -He disappeared in early adulthood to somewhere (the Himalayas, but could be anywhere) to master a bunch of martial arts -His liaison with the GCPD is Jim Gordon That's it - the rest of the stuff is totally negotiable, even the extended Bat-Family (unless they are included in the story, which changes the equation for that character only who has his/her own canon) Bring back Bat-Mite.

Silly Question. Regarding a walk-off HR... If the run doesn't count until the batter touches all of the bases - including home plate - how can teammates leave the dugout and celebrate without being considered to be in the field of play? Guys are all over the base line, etc. The game isn't officially over, correct? Would Harper have been considered to be returning to the field illegally after being tossed? If the other players can be out there too, then he's not technically on the actual field if he's outside of the baseline?

With The Score turning Cubs, ESPN Chicago is about the only non-Cubs connected station left.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ May 10, 2016 -> 12:43 AM) Is a guy kicked out allowed back onto the field even on a walkoff like that? Isn't the game over by then?

Hey, why don't we merge them into one giant catch-all?

Johnson can play LF, 1B, 2B, 3B and has averaged 15+ HR a year in his past.

At this point, I'd be reluctant to mess with the present chemistry and fiddle with the defense. If they get a hitter, it's got to be a DH that can spell guys occasionally at multiple defensive positions. If you want simplicity, you can get Kelly Johnson from the Braves. Lefty bat, versatile on D, has some pop.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 6, 2016 -> 02:30 PM) One night too late. You really think that it would have been much different in the result?

QUOTE (gosoxgo2005 @ May 5, 2016 -> 01:43 PM) I was told that unless Johnson throws a no-no, today will 99% be his only start for now. Take that FWIW I don't understand their short leash on Johnson. He's no worse than Gonzalez or Danks right now. At least give him a chance to try and improve at the MLB level.

Avengers...? You mean, Civil War, right?

Is it wrong to want Nelson Cruz as our DH?

Bruce Wolf, Rich Koz, and Dan Bernstein are the same guy. Prove me wrong.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ May 5, 2016 -> 12:52 AM) No it is not ok! She said she is a HUGE Cubs fan, that should be it. lol "I went to YOUR team's game; you shouldn't have any problem going to MINE. Here, put this Cubs shirt and cap on."

He's a habitual liar, 'roider and has a monster contract. I really doubt that this is more than speculation.

Foreign box office has made over $200 million already for Civil War.

Enjoyed Creed last night. It was a longer movie than expected, but it was pretty good. I wonder what Burt Young thought when they killed off his Rocky character... 4 out of 5 stars

QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ Apr 29, 2016 -> 03:24 PM) The Bears size on that opportunity to draft......Grandpa Leonard, the guy about whom every conversation starts with a list of excuses as to why he's so old they had to carbon date him and he didn't do anything at Georgia. Wow. You're a pretty rude individual.

I heard that Jack has the potential for microfractures in his knee.

QUOTE (Palehosefan @ Apr 28, 2016 -> 03:46 PM) Just keep him away from women. I'm in no way excusing the act, but I bet that there are dozens of NFL players with unreported college sexual assaults in their life history.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Apr 28, 2016 -> 02:39 PM) Shawn Oakman was always a day 3 pick. He can't play. I think that he'd be worth a 5th-7th round easily.

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 28, 2016 -> 11:21 AM) Close. 6-3. Which will also be Danks Innings/ER. 7-6. There's no way that Danks doesn't give up at least 5 runs.
