I can't recall getting screwed by umpiring so much in one season. Especially this early.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 16, 2016 -> 03:20 PM) Did you guys know that the Cubs players go to bars and sing karaoke? OMG, they are just like you and me, so fun!!!! Cubs players have been going to stanley's for that since I moved back downtown in 2003. Its hilarious how "new" everyone thinks it is

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ May 17, 2016 -> 12:23 PM) I'm just patiently waiting for the Bathroom Dilemma thread to re-open. Some interesting s*** in there lately. A bathroom is where s*** belongs

Pre-check was 5 min long today FYI

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 17, 2016 -> 10:10 AM) Now all we have to do is patch up things in our LGBT dispute, so the world can go back to normal and the White Sox back to their winning ways... LOL

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ May 17, 2016 -> 08:26 AM) This is why I'm scratching my head. I've already had a dozen flights out of Midway this year, and the security lines were all pretty typical. Yep. I fly every week and its weird this just started.

This Eero device is very interesting to me. Better at home wifi is a constant challenge for everyone.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ May 17, 2016 -> 08:53 AM) The thing is you could also easily make an argument that Thompson fouled Westbrook prior to the travel too. So hard for me to feel like the Warriors got robbed. You dont get robbed if you are up that big and sleepwalk an entire quarter

QUOTE (Ezio Auditore @ May 16, 2016 -> 10:57 AM) The Boltons were already known for that, Ramsay was just known for it in the extreme. It's always been their banner. She just got out maneuvered there.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ May 16, 2016 -> 10:21 PM) I traveled right around New Years and Late Feb/Early March and never really had problems with TSA lines. But I can see why Chicago airports are much worse then STL Ohare is always bad but Midway rarely is. That line was one of the all time worst.

QUOTE (JenksIsMyHero @ May 16, 2016 -> 06:07 PM) Has anyone found out why this suddenly became an issue in the last 7 days? Were their massive layoffs or something? I haven't had an issue at either airport in years. I still got through ok with pre check.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ May 16, 2016 -> 07:10 PM) Why don't you f*** off and not tell me how to parent my kids. Lol what?

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ May 16, 2016 -> 12:55 PM) She's 6 so no exposure to sex-ed or the internet yet, and seeing a picture of genitals is different than seeing the genitals of someone you actually know. Cool, so in 6 or 7 years when shes getting snapchatted dick picks from boys in her school let me know how worried you are about the one trans kid hiding out in the locker room where girls dont even use the showers. I'm sure it will be terrifying.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ May 16, 2016 -> 11:45 AM) She's not that age yet. Fortunately I have a few years to see how this plays out before deciding how to handle those years. So no exposure to sex-ed or the internet yet? Kids these days have seen alot more shocking stuff than a penis

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ May 16, 2016 -> 10:44 AM) It's already started happening. Think about when you were 15 and the lengths you would go to in order to see girls naked. Maybe schools are different now. When I was in HS the showers for after gym class and sports practices were just big shower rooms with no stalls or curtains. I'm sure the number one thing teenage boys want to do is out themselves to faculty family and friends as well as face bullying and ridicule to catch a glimpse of the rare chance that a girl may shower. It's not like there are any other opportunities to see a woman naked. And if your daughter is that age she's already seen a penis and nothing crazy happened.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 16, 2016 -> 01:53 AM) Great post. He said he didn't want his daughter in a shower with dicks in the shower. It's ridiculous that America is siding with the small population of men who "identify" with being a woman. Hey I just read this today. Part of the law is if a male identifies as a girl, in high school he MUST be allowed on the women's basketball team if he so desires, not the men's team. WOW. This will be interesting. I think it'd be a helluva lot of fun to DOMINATE the high school girls games. If I were in high school I might fake it so I could score 40-50 in the women's game vs. five points in the boys game. Seriously this is ridiculous. The boys are gonna be able to say "I identify as a girl!" and be allowed on the girls softball team! Wow. Lol. Dicks in a shower. I'm sure that's a huge issue. And Greg show me the link on the second half of your rambling.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ May 15, 2016 -> 05:20 PM) Holy brawl with Texas and Toronto Odor is gonna be suspended awhile.

Lol. Pampered babies, yet you are too scared to order a sandwich behind a guy in a dress.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 13, 2016 -> 10:04 PM) If Avila can actually stay consistent with that short/quick swing to LCF, it would be HUGE for the Sox. He doesn't have to be the 2011 or 2012 Avila, an All-Star caliber guy, just something in between. You can bet both he and Jackson want to prove to Alex's dad that he was wrong to let them both go...especially when we face the Tigers. I agree though I like Navarro. As long as the running game for the opposition is somewhat contained it doesnt matter to me. The defense needs to be priority #1

QUOTE (iamshack @ May 13, 2016 -> 09:56 PM) Semien is just so inconsistent. The thing about our roster is that defensively its pretty amazing in the positions that arent hitting great. If anything we need a sweet pinch hitter in the Matt Stairs mold. OUr defense is whats carrying this team and removing someone like Jackson or Rollins is just not going to help

QUOTE (iamshack @ May 13, 2016 -> 09:53 PM) Yeah, for sure. I am hoping to order a TTRS in 2018 or so. For now, content to procure the next family truckster. See anything you like? I cant say much because of my NDA, but lets just say they know where they are short (engine) and they are fixing it. The tech stuff is incredible. They are going after the X5 hard

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 13, 2016 -> 09:50 PM) I'd go with Kershaw or Syndergaard/Sale...but then someone who's averaging almost 98 MPH as a starter isn't long from the surgeon's office, either. This isn't a guess. He's asking for the largest contract for a pitcher ever.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 13, 2016 -> 09:40 PM) I hope so, and I hope the Cubs give it to him. Its a win either way. Its either going to be awful for them or they are going to lose the best pitcher in the league.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ May 13, 2016 -> 09:35 PM) The Sox have Jose, Q, Sale and Eaton locked up to some of the most insane contracts in baseball mostly because Hahn was smart enough to realize whicih way the wind was blowing with pre arb buyouts. Even the media is piling on now and he's said hes not giving a discount. Its going to be the largest contract ever.
