QUOTE (1dog @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 10:12 PM) Haven't read the thread, just responding to the title... Shortly after they figure out their starting Catcher is, well, not a starting catcher. Based on what's already transpired, that might take a while. I repeat. Gordon Beckham remains a daily fixture in our lineup despite the fact that he is now in his 5th straight year of being absolutely dreadful. 2,766 plate appearances of being mostly terrible.

Ladies and gentlemen, your trade deadline acquisition.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 10:00 PM) He didn't stand up to him, he basically cried to him. They should have made a move on Devin right away after he outed their original alliance but they instead did what he wanted when he had no power. The person who is going to win Big Brother is not going to make the "big move" in week one. That would be suicide. EDIT: In fact, it was. Joey tried to get something done and she was gone. Sit back, let Devin dig his hole and stay out of his sights and he'll be gone soon enough. BB101

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 10:13 PM) Now I have venemous hate because I'm not a James jockrider, lol ok. LeBron is the best player right now, find somewhere I say otherwise. I just don't get caught up on the hype and I would rather wait until their career is over to judge where they stand among the greats. BTW, 99-2003 Shaq to me was the most dominating NBA player I've ever seen besides MJ. You were probably too young to really appreciate peak O'Neal. You brought this on yourself and somehow manage to keep digging deeper. I'm 31. How the f*** is that too young to appreciate peak Diesel? He's one of my favorite players ever. That's twice now you've just made things up about me in the last 20 minutes - first that I guaranteed the Heat would beat the Spurs when I couldn't even post at that time and now. Hell, I wish I were too young to appreciate peak O'Neal. That'd be awesome to rock my 20's again. It's time for me to shut you off for the night so I don't get baited into saying something stupid due to your baseless claims that do nothing to back up anything you say. You're the worst type of poster - instead of ever making a valid point you just make things up about people you're "arguing" with, which is just weird. Also, you have Luol Deng and Carlos Boozer in your signature. Wake the f*** up and change it.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 10:03 PM) I think Steve missed this thread. I've been "back" for like a week. I actually work at work now, so I don't get to f*** around. I decided to get all up in this thread tonight for old time's sake. Some of the comments are... well... amazing.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 09:55 PM) the best player ever not named Michael Jordan. omg omg please bring up Bill Russell. pretty please

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 09:45 PM) Is that Watterson? I hope that guy pops up out of nowhere with a few books worth of comic strips some day No, just fan art. Me too. That'd be the best gift ever, honestly. I still read the entire C&H series yearly. I can't wait until if/when I have a kid so I can plop the collection on his/her lap at the age of 6 and say "enjoy".

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 09:48 PM) I'm liking the season but these players are still pissing me off. No one has the balls to stand up to Devin. We've had one eviction and he's the HoH this week. The only moron dumb enough to stand up to Devin got put up on the block after the veto. Now is not the time to have the "balls" to stand up to Devin. Now is the time to kiss his ass.

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 09:49 PM) Pretty sure you and J4L basically laughed at the notion of the Heat losing these past Finals... Or are you going to say you never said that? J4L laughed at me when I kept saying the Spurs were gonna beat the Heat. It isn't that I 'hate' LeBron, I don't, I just don't overrate the hell out of him. But carry on... Well, I will say I never said that because I didn't. Sh*t, I was suspended for the entire lot of June and wouldn't have even had a chance to post such nonsense. Anyone who watched the Heat and Spurs in the playoffs this year would have been nuts to make any guarantees like that. I've backed LeBron for years on this board. Go climb a tree and stop putting words in people's mouths just because of your venomous hate for the best player ever not named Michael Jordan.

QUOTE (soxfan49 @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 06:42 PM) If the cap goes up to $74m by '15-'16 and the Hawks make no big moves, their big 6 will consist of 57% of their team in terms of money. This year, it was 54%. I'm not worried. Nice. Well done.

Holy f***. http://www.lebronjames.com

QUOTE (TRU @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 09:40 PM) Youre so off base here its ridiculous. LeBron, Love, and Kyrie will have a better supporting cast than the heat had and they would get to the finals with ease. If its Wiggins, LeBron, and Kyrie I still would put them as favorites, but not auto. The LeBron hate by some around here is so undying it's commendable.

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 09:34 PM) Laugh all you want, the vacuum created by the Heat's demise will put the Bulls with a healthy Rose, Pacers, Wizards and Raptors in position to take the East before the Cavs get their s*** down and dominate the rest of the decade. And it begins.

New obsession: Hobbes and Bacon http://imgur.com/tUzAL Short but sweet.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 09:27 PM) Are we talking about whether the Cavs will be the favorite or if they're going to be the automatic Finals representative from the East, don't even bother watching the playoffs? I'd hope the favorite. They'd also be really fun to watch with the bonus of enjoying seeing a completely empty American Airlines Arena. Also, check your GTT email.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 07:31 PM) The players this year on Big Brother are just as bad so far as the players last year. I'm adoring this season. Plus, HD.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 08:20 PM) SportsCenter ‏@SportsCenter 1m Chris Bosh has decided to sign with Rockets if LeBron James leaves Heat. What a p****. You are a grown-ass man. Sign the deal and don't let "The King" f***ing own you. What an idiot.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 05:59 PM) Congratulations, mavs. You are now the 5th seed (at best) in the west next year. Way too much for a guy that's not even gonna come close to putting you over the top. Moronic signing.

The internet is ready to f***ing explode. These millionaires need to s*** already.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 9, 2014 -> 04:57 PM) Kobe Bryant having a live press conference coming up now. He's been traded to the Bulls for Luol Deng, Kirk Hinrich, and some picks. #danbernstein #2007
