  1. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 31, 2017 -> 04:58 PM) no guts no glory. It's funny because the Astros bullpen has been so bad that Hinch hasn't been able to wear out his relievers like Roberts has. He's been forced to use his other starters and long relievers, which has worked out so far.
  2. Schefter slightly changes his story @AdamSchefter Bengals and Browns actually agreed to AJ McCarron trade at 3:55 pm, per source involved. Bengals approved trade to NFL, Browns did not.
  3. Hinch says McCullers would be used to close out game tonight.
  4. Browns and Bengals agreed upon AJ McCarron trade. After the deadline, so no deal. Oh Browns.
  5. QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Oct 31, 2017 -> 03:25 PM) Kelvin Benjamin to Buffalo. All the Panthers. Wow. That seems interesting for a 5-3 team that already lacks in wide receiving depth.
  6. QUOTE (bmags @ Oct 31, 2017 -> 03:16 PM) In Illinois I was definitely taught that Robert E Lee was a reluctant soldier who didn't even believe in slavery but loved the south and states rights, but I didn't really encounter the "the civil war was about states rights not slavery" until I lived in Missouri. Growing up in the Chicago burbs, the only idea I've ever known was that the Civil War was over slavery. Guess it makes sense that other parts of the country think differently, but I would have never thought to think about it another way.
  7. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Oct 31, 2017 -> 02:18 PM) Now the White House Press Secretary is peddling Lost Cause propaganda Willing to say anything to keep a once in a lifetime job? Or just flat our ignorant/racist?
  8. Adam Schefter‏Verified account @AdamSchefter 7m7 minutes ago More “Zero chance” Dolphins trade WR Jarvis Landry today, per league source. Not happening.
  9. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 31, 2017 -> 11:56 AM) I dont see any way in hell that Detroit trades him to an interdivision rival He is available(as well as Vontae Davis and Donte Moncreif), but apparently Indy is asking a kings ransom I haven't seen much of Ebron, but if fantasy football reports tell me anything, the dude can't catch at all.
  10. QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Oct 31, 2017 -> 10:52 AM) Pats lost this deal already. Everyone thinks everything the Pats does is gold but it really isn't true. Tom Brady covers up a lot. They have busted on some large FA signings and the Chandler Jones trade was no bueno. The Pats got a high 2nd round draft pick for a guy who was gonna be an unrestricted free agent and they had zero chance of re-signing or franchise tagging. If Jimmy G is a stud or Father Time catches up with Brady sooner, then it will look bad. But as of right now, I don't see how you can say they lost the trade already. Jimmy G is a question mark and Brady is cruising along.
  11. QUOTE (RockRaines @ Oct 31, 2017 -> 09:27 AM) He literally live tweets fox and friends every morning. Its pretty pathetic. That's because he can't think of the tweets himself, he needs the boob tube to give him ideas.
  12. QUOTE (bmags @ Oct 31, 2017 -> 09:07 AM) I think this is a bit disingenous to as why people are focusing on fox. It's not "ha, look at the stupid people!" Fox, and specifically fox and friends and then hannity, have become a tell for what Trump will start tweeting angrily about. Everyone knows the president watches it, and so when major news around the investigation into the president drops and they are covering emojis it just underscores that dynamic. It is for all intents and purposes state media with Trump in office. I understand the state media point, but there is a good portion of "ha, look at the stupid people!" too. It's crazy because all it does is help Trump and his narratives of everyone and the media being against us. I guess it's a damned if you do, damned if you don't situation.
  13. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 31, 2017 -> 08:36 AM) Schefter just tweeted that an nfl exec told him this is the most active trade deadline ever Nice, I hope there is more. The NFL has always been lacking on the trade front compared to other sports. And Zeke Elliot's suspension is back on. Maybe. I have no idea what any of the legal mumbo jumbo means.
  14. The obsession with Fox News is fascinating to me. I saw more tweets yesterday about Fox News than I did the indictments. Meanwhile, every tweet about them gives them more publicity. Every "look at what crazy Tomi Lahren said now!" video just adds to her followers. They can't pay for this type of free pub. Meanwhile, 25% of the country uses TMZ as their one and only news source, maybe that's just as big of a problem?
  15. QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Oct 30, 2017 -> 10:02 PM) I'd rather have Trubisky then pay a 26 year old Garoppolo $100 million. Yeah, the 49ers have 24 games to decide if he's worth $100 million. Unrestricted free agent this year, but I'm sure they can franchise him for 2018. The funny thing is that everyone seems to assume that Garropplo is good, but nobody knows for sure.
  16. Per Schefter, 49ers trade 2nd round pick for Jimmy Garrapolo.
  17. QUOTE (whtsoxfan @ Oct 30, 2017 -> 01:30 PM) TV Ratings: World Series Climbs, Trouncing Sunday Night Football #KeepTakingAKnee http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed...ootball-1052876 I would hope that the ratings for a sport's championship would be much greater than a regular season game in a different sport.
  18. QUOTE (Jack Parkman @ Oct 30, 2017 -> 10:26 AM) Akili Smith and Ryan Leaf are two off of the top of my head. And the second comment makes you think, doesn't it? Cam is average. If he's the best you can come up with it just proves my point. Both of those guys started 2 seasons in college. And I'd be ecstatic if Trubisky had a pro career as good as Cam Newton's.
  19. QUOTE (Jack Parkman @ Oct 30, 2017 -> 09:46 AM) Manning still threw 26 TDs that year. Talk to me when Trubisky a) has a multi-TD game and b) completes more than 50% of his passes, when 62% is the minimum acceptable level for modern NFL QBs. My argument is this: If this guy needs so much time, then maybe you shouldn't have wasted the 2nd overall pick on a guy who isn't going to be able to contribute until 2019. IMO, Deshaun Watson has the "it" factor. Trubisky doesn't. Watson has had a 5 TD game in his 3rd NFL start. (And, IIRC, he had a rushing TD in that game too) My complaint is that Trubisky was a blatant severe overdraft due to position. Watson was the only QB who was a 1st round talent and he probably shouldn't have been taken top 20. Trubisky and Mahomes were 2nd or 3rd rounders. They got overdrafted because of a need at a position. I hate drafting QBs who have only started one season since HS, because they almost always are epic busts. As a matter of fact, I challenge anybody to give me the name of a QB since 1990 who started one season since HS, was drafted in the 1st round and wasn't an epic bust. Cam Newton? I could barely find any such players that were epic busts, almost all QBs has 2+ years of experience in college.
  20. Kevin Spacey is the latest to be accused of past sexual assaults, although he is trying the "I'm not a pedophile, I'm just gay" excuse.
  21. QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Oct 30, 2017 -> 03:08 AM) Yeah man, this game was just f***ing nuts to watch. I'm pulling for the Dodgers but I'm glad I'm not emotionally attached or I would be bats*** crazy after that loss. I think it's time to start PED testing the baseballs. If you get a chance , check out Correa's HR. I kinda wonder if that ball had more height than distance. Not trying to take anything away from Correa but damn. StatCast said it was the highest home run hit the entire season. Between that hit and the Puig check swing homer, something is going on. Minute Maid Park was the top pitchers park all year too.
  22. QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Oct 29, 2017 -> 10:43 PM) Check Fox when you wake up, this crazy game might still be playing. Holy s***! Woke up at 2 am, my Twitter timeline was mayhem, another classic. But the ball is not juiced.
  23. QUOTE (soxfan49 @ Oct 29, 2017 -> 07:08 PM) Pace has drafted Jackson, Amos, Howard, Whitehair, Goldman, and Floyd and signed Hicks, Sitton, and Trevathan. If you consider the roster he took over, Pace has done a really good job IMO I love the defense now and Pace has done well with that, but his entire tenure will depend on what Trubisky does, thats.all.
  24. This series is amazing. I have to work in 7 hours, enjoy the game.
