QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 08:07 PM) Don't let the salesman know that. When I bought my Focus back in 2001, I made my best offer and when they wouldn't meet it I walked away. About a week later they called me up on the phone and asked if I was still interested. I said yes, but only for the price I offered. They told me to come in, and met my price. Good luck! Yeah that's about where I'm at...it's really the trade that's the sticking point right now

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 08:00 PM) I feel your pain! It's gotta be done though...I like the Focus ST too damn much

A win today would take aware from the horror I'm about to go through tomorrow with car dealers

Garcia needs a golf club to hit that

They have to keep making changes because if they arent in playoff position in a few months they can start packing. It's pretty obvious Hahn knows this has to be the year.

QUOTE (shipps @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 11:30 AM) Yes, unfortunately he is still the manager. Alright that gave me a good laugh

Well we can thank Jimmy Rollins for helping us get rid of LaRoche. That was worth the price of admission.

Atleast with Rick Hahn's last comments he pretty much put everyone on notice. He knows he's on the chopping block if this continues.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 09:25 PM) How do you punish a team? Are they supposed to spend a certain amount of money? What if a team has a strategy of trying to play their own young home grown talent thinning they can win with it? You give them a window of a few years like I mentioned above. Then you start fining and moving them out of their presumed top draft position. That's really the problem with the lottery. The 76ers still are able to get good picks. Let's not act like these teams plans are secretive either. GMs have been very open about these type of strategies because they want to prepare everyone else for the long term sucking.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 09:20 PM) It's not like players on teams in those situations are intentionally throwing games. They are playing for their career. Who cares? The Front Office's are throwing the games and it makes the league(whichever one) look like a joke. When you can start writing off teams in the offseason and who obviously have zero desire to win there's a problem.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 09:19 PM) The lottery system for picks is somewhat a decent way to do it. It's a good start. Really there should be a window of time set up league wide or something to that effect. You have "X" amount of time to get your team together.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 09:17 PM) I'd take my chances at this point. The owner wont though. Honestly I hate tanking in any sport. I think there should be punishments/countermeasures for what some of these teams try to do.

A rebuild doesnt guarantee you anything either. Prospects can implode and then your left with nothing. You have to wait even longer then.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 07:50 PM) SD GM may die laughing tonight. He shouldnt be. He's going to be fired at the end of the year too.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 07:48 PM) Lol does it really matter at this point? He was injured apparently yesterday. So now they are going to make sure that he is apparently.

Oh good...let's kill Putnam's arm

Bullpen? Why?

QUOTE (Tony @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 07:46 PM) I would LOVE to be in the box with Hahn and Williams right now. Screw that...you want to be where JR is watching the game

Coop going out there to tell him to stop sucking

He's getting the s*** booed out of him

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 07:40 PM) I mean at the end of the day it's a business. His loyalty is ruining his business. Well for the Bulls too. That team is in line for a house cleaning. Hoiberg and the front office are in the firing line.

Just keep weathering the storm

JR cares obviously...he just has a loyalty problem

Good he deserved to get booed after that s*** start.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 07:27 PM) How he keeps a job after this mess is a mystery I dunno. I thought the Bulls front office were going to be fired. But they are still sitting there. Who the f*** knows at this point. Say what you want about the Bears ownership in past years. But they got their act together recently.
