  1. Don't agree with greg a lot, but ridiculous to pull the sexist card there.
  2. I bought a hot dog for 4 opening day...
  3. Listening on radio, guessing they're not letting Sale throw sliders per usual April?
  4. Garcia should not be in the lineup even with Eaton out after yesterday
  5. QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 8, 2016 -> 08:07 PM) Another ACL for Dudek Absolutely devastating
  6. QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 8, 2016 -> 05:46 PM) Padres scored a bunch of runs but Alexei is 0-13 so far. It's April
  7. Tarp still on field it's absolutely miserable here. On the other sidr, I'm not sure I've seen so many people at the park. It's mobbed here.
  8. If they cancel they'll have to do it very soon. Hourly looms fine. 40% chance of rain at 3 but should be quick and nothing past that.
  9. I know way more about the White Sox franchise and it's history than I like to admit but for some reason player numbers never really stuck to me. I barely know anyone's. Off the top of my head it's Frank Thomas 35 and Nick Swisher "Dirty 30" (yuck).
  10. QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 7, 2016 -> 11:15 PM) It doesn't remotely hold any water. Even if the leaks were motivated (as if Snowden's werent), has there been any pushback whatsoever that this information is forged or untrue? Cameron has admitted his involvement. The Icelandic PM has admitted their involvement. But a US businessman was willing to throw 2 allies under the bus to cause mild discomfort to Putin? This information has been spread to multiple news sources nad the actual docs are with the Suddeutsche Zeitung and 5 other news orgs, with only one org that has Soros as a contributor to the non-profit company. I don't think they're saying it's untrue (unless I missed that) and I don't think the Soros connection is the story here. It's more that the most transparent organization out there is being ridiculously critical of the biggest leak of our time when you'd think they'd for it. In fact it seemed like a week ago they were, which is why I was surprised reading their tweets tonight (from the last couple days). Wikileaks has either been overcome with extreme jealousy they didnt break a story right up their alley, become a Russian puppet themselves after securing Snowden's transfer or they have a point and these docs should flat out be dumped and released Wikileaks style. I don't completely agree with the latter since there is going to be a ton of personal data involved here but at the same time I don't trust the journalists to come out with this story in a timely and orderly fashion with so much data out there. They are releasing some so far but it's basically a grain of sand compared to a beach of documents. I believe there's a large release set for May although I'm not sure if that similar to the 150 we've seen so far. I'd much prefer they just vet documents for personal info then mass release as much as possible, letting the public write the stories. That'd be both timelier and would eliminate any uncertainty of the vetting of these documents.
  11. QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 7, 2016 -> 10:39 PM) LOL Not a fan of what wikileaks is saying here?
  12. So Wikileaks is claiming the documents were more or less being vetted by George Soros and company for release and are being used to target BRIC countries, hence little to no American involvement here. Wonder how much truth there is to that. I guess if there's one thing about Wikileaks, they are for complete transparency. Could be a case of jealousy too.
  13. Fowler just took out the knees of Schwarber.
  14. QUOTE (Vance Law @ Mar 29, 2016 -> 04:22 PM) Hawk is a character. Virtually all other broadcasters in baseball are pointless, worthless, flavorless and devoid of personality. They suck. They're grown in a laboratory in Orlando. They're if khaki pants could talk. They are audience-tested by the corporation. They are not people. They are not interesting. They suck. Cubs are unwatchable. You can dislike some of what Hawk does, and I'll agree it gets way worse when the team sucks (3 straight seasons). But good god, give me anyone with a personality over the Len Kasper/Chip Careys of the world. Legitimately one of the best posts I've read on this site. Lost it at if khaki pants could talk.
  15. So the Dominono free pizza after a no hitter is gone? Wow how unforunate. That was the best promotion ever.
