Big Hurtin

Welcome back. That didn't take long, no rust on him.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jun 2, 2014 -> 10:30 PM) No Dodgers did their own TV package which is Sportsnet L.A. (SNLA) and DirecTV won't buy it I think. Yeah, they think the price is too high. What's strange is they have it on Extra Innings, but local fans are blacked out. I believe it's the same situation as CSN Philadelphia.

On the ESPN crawl it said Sterling is going to sue the NBA for a billion dollars in damages. That whole mess can't end soon enough. Now they say the deal is done and they can't be sued by Donald Sterling. (this is assured by the Sterling family trust, but I have no idea how this works)

The articles I see online mention the Cubs' contract being up after this season, unsurprisingly, there's no White Sox mention.

One thing I didn't see in the article is when this is going to start. I wonder if this means more OTA games, or more CSN games.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 28, 2014 -> 12:49 PM) The Cubs do have a contract with them, and now want to basically change the terms. I don't know any rooftop owners personally, but do know they have spent a lot of money on those places and Ricketts and the Cubs want to basically take their revenue stream almost totally away. Who is going to spend a lot of money if you can only see a small part of the field? If the Cubs didn't have a contract with them, I would have no problem, but the Cubs hold others up to their end of contracts, why shouldn't they have to do the same? And does anyone find it very weird that the Cubs seem to go out of their way trying to act as if Sammy Sosa never existed, yet they hire Manny Ramirez as a player/coach in the minors? I didn't realize they had that long of a deal ( (2023?). I think they are a tacky eyesore. I wonder what the net would be if they were sued. I.e., new revenue - settlement cost (or damages if not settled).

That was an interesting hit.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ May 27, 2014 -> 09:42 PM) Conor Gillaspie is the greatest hitter of all time Do you have any numbers that back that up?

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ May 27, 2014 -> 09:36 PM) roids Manny Ramirez, moral high road closed

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 27, 2014 -> 02:39 PM) Those new scoreboards are a major f*** you to the rooftop owners. Who cares? Do people really feel sympathy for them, or is it just an anti-Cubs thing?

Anyone know how long of a rain delay?

Ryu perfect for the Dodgers through 7. Dodgers winning 1-0 over Reds.

Which Sox hitter is going to get drilled now?

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 25, 2014 -> 04:02 PM) Yesterday's game was so huge you'd think Coop would have demanded to get Bella the hell out of that game. Although Downs would have blown it too I'm sure. if you actually believe that, you are in for a long summer.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 25, 2014 -> 03:53 PM) Most Sox fans at game are saying I paid to see this. That is it for 2014. Soriano another hit. How many of them ARE Sox fans? 1/2?

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 24, 2014 -> 05:14 PM) Ventura is never responsible for anything in your eyes. He was tossed from the game hours ago.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 14, 2014 -> 09:05 AM) There is literally no name anywhere that will produce a response other than "furious". Fine, maybe Popovich, but no plausible name. Mike Brown?

Lundqvist is putting on a clinic! Holy Sh**!

Is Kenny Powers in the actual game? (MLB The Show)

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 5, 2014 -> 04:23 PM) That is Dunn in LF and De Aza in CF. Dan Hayes ‏@DanHayesCSN 4m #WhiteSox lineup for 5/3 vs. #Cubs: De Aza 8, Beckham 4, Abreu 3, Dunn 7, Viciedo 9, Ramirez 6, Flowers 2, Semien 5, Quintana 1. They should put Viciedo in CF and Dunn in RF for S and G's. In case anyone was wondering, WCIU = White Sox / CSN = Cubs

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 1, 2014 -> 01:57 PM) Peggy Kusinski 18 mins · Thanks to ‪#‎Bulls‬ season ticket holder for clearing up the cat fight at Game 5 loss to Wizards. Apparently a female fan was overserved & launching vulgarities towards Carlos Boozer on the bench. First time she threw a cup at the bench, the ice hit DRose & spilled onto court. Fans started telling her to put a lid on it - she started directing her vulgarities to Carlos' GF who WALKED AWAY. A friend of the GF defended her & THAT was who the fan started clawing at. For the many kids in the area behind the Bulls bench, it was despicable behavior by the supposed Bulls fan shouting vulgar insults at Carlos Boozer. Kudos to his GF for taking the high road & walking away, but many sitting in the area thought the woman should've been ejected after the first cup of ice was thrown at the Bulls bench. There you have it. http://guyism.com/sports/catfight-behind-b...girlfriend.html Uh-oh, how long is he going to be out now?

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 30, 2014 -> 05:01 PM) I wonder what crazy GM would be stupid enough to pay a 39 year old DH $15 million for a year. QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Apr 30, 2014 -> 05:05 PM) We will find out. Um, Ben Cherrington

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 29, 2014 -> 10:30 PM) Tigers with all the momentum in this game right now. Any more rain coming?

Thank YOU very much
