  1. Angelo has actually attempted to address the issues with this team. Its just they rarely find the right player who can actually perform.
  2. Touche, but f*** me if people aren't a little too addicted to the idea of "rebuilding" round here.
  3. The Soxtalk mantra. First sign of being half-bad just quit and guarantee suckage for years.
  4. http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/09...esidential-run/ I knew it, I knew it, I f***ing knew it.
  5. He already owns the record books when it comes to kick returns. Another 5 years of this and he shatters those records by a long shot. His body of work already justifies the Hall of Fame as long as its assumed KR/PR's have a place in Canton.
  6. Just so people know this really isn't possible. Chicago (I think) still has the largest municipal harbor system in the world and there's plenty of business that goes on the water. I work for a company that does it, but the Water Taxi's have really gained a lot of momentum and taken at least some of a load off the CTA. Besides the CPD just got two new patrol speedboats that dont look cheap. So its kind of out the window anyways.
  7. Hasn't the Congress Hotel been thrown around as an idea? EDIT: for the casino.
  8. Unbelievable a guy who was part of this franchises' unprecedented levels of success is being treated like this on his way out.
  9. There is no possible way that is true unless you started following the team in 2005.
  10. There's just something a lot less appealing about boring, good lineups failing miserably than bizarre, awful lineups failing hilariously. What I'm really trying to say is the team he has sucks and he's been thrown under the bus for it.
  11. White Sox go from fun bad under Ozzie to just bad bad under someone else. Oh well, usually when ST gets something it really wants they look back on it 12 months later and berate the organization for doing what they demanded.
  12. Except the flag was thrown from the back of the endzone the instant it became clear Knox was going to cruise for a touchdown.
  13. Chris Harris is really important to the Bears defense, I think we really learned that Sunday.
  14. I cant believe how comfortable people are with just dumping Mark Buehrle. Its so ridiculous.
  15. Hard to imagine he had character concerns coming into Chicago. What a nice thing to do.
  16. 1) Clean house in the SEC: Without a doubt the most corrupt law enforcement agency in the United States, and when they're not playing favorites they're just being generally incompetent. Put some hateful assholes in there who actually despise Wall St. and maybe we'll see some of the crooks actually go to jail. Congress can pass whatever financial regulations it wants (lets be serious though, it wont), but without proper enforcement the rules just get trampled on. 2) Impose import tariffs: Unfortunately NAFTA keeps us from protecting domestic industry from two of our largest importers, but we can still isolate the bigger EU producers and East Asia. The loss of middle class manufacturing jobs has really hurt 3rd and 4th tier American cities and all but destroyed smaller working communities in rural areas. 3) Rethink our subsidy priorities: Looking at the energy companies here. If energy innovation is supposed to be what bails us out of this mess we cannot keep incentives for maintaining our unsustainable energy infrastructure.
  17. I did. I want to get this whole party platformed narcissism out of the way and done with. Palin is the Queen Bee, let her get clobbered in a national referendum for her insanity and the whole craziness we've seen the past 3 years just goes away. Until that happens however her legion of fans will cling to the hope that she'll rescue our country.
  18. It would be a disaster for the Bears to let Matt Forte walk in free agency. I'm not gonna spend much time thinking about it while theyre playing football, but he has to be priority #1 in the offseason.
  19. But when it comes to Ozzie Guillen 800 topics is nowhere near enough to contain Soxtalk's seething rage. Quit being so damn mad Steve, holy s***.
