  1. QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Jun 4, 2016 -> 03:46 PM) Time to hang them up. He should just try to bat RH. He just doesn't look natural swinging from the left side.
  2. I don't get how other pitchers mow down our hitters and Sale has to expend 30 pitches getting out of the first.
  3. QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jun 4, 2016 -> 02:59 PM) It says green goddamn it I took green as a sign for money.
  4. QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jun 4, 2016 -> 02:48 PM) Johnson, Tatis Jr., Davidson, and Garcia for Shields, Jay, and cash!! /green link?
  5. James Shield eh... maybe coop can fix him.
  6. QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 3, 2016 -> 08:43 PM) We don't win Central Division games, especially on the road. That's the Sox mojo during the Robin era. That, Robin lovers, is why he needs to go. I'd agree to him staying if we totally switched up our advance scouting department. Detroit, KC and Cleveland know all the Sox weaknesses. I know you guys don't like my gambling tips. But bet the house we finish below KC, Cleveland and Detroit. We'll finish ahead of Minnie. This may sound harsh, but we're probably the only reason the Royals will be in it all the way. The way they beat on the Sox ... that's a lot of victories coming up considering they are 5-1 vs. Chicago this year already. greg, make your predictions but don't give anyone gambling advice. Do you know how many homeless people you have created with your shenanigans?
  7. Can't swing at balls out of the zone. He would have had to be looking for a slider on 3-0, which noone is their right mind is doing.
  8. QUOTE (SoCalSox @ Jun 3, 2016 -> 07:38 PM) Rodon cruising right now, finally. Need to get some runs or it'll be another tough luck loss. Rodon gave up two bombs, that's hardly tough luck.
  9. QUOTE (Brian @ Jun 3, 2016 -> 01:59 PM) Cuba just missed Kershaw, now will miss Greinke. They can dodge all of the elite pitchers in the regular season. They still have to beat them in the postseason... oops
  10. QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 3, 2016 -> 01:16 PM) I just hope all turns out OK for Melky and his family. Yes this is important of course.
  11. Why do they need another RP? Call up one of the f***ing outfielders in Charlotte FFS.
  12. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 3, 2016 -> 01:06 PM) The problem in Illinois is that education, transportation and public safety are in huge trouble spots because of the pension disasters attached to them. At some point someone is going to have to get costs under control, or push through a LOT more taxes to pay for them. Every year this gets pushed down the road, the worst the problem is going to get. Chicago has already seen this start to happen locally, and you can see the costs through all of the insane taxes and fees they have pushed through to try to balance things from the decades of Daley just borrowing money for everything. The day of reckoning is coming for Illinois. They might be able to keep kicking the can down the timeline for number of years more, but it is coming. Raise taxes with some goddamn transparency and accountability then. People hate paying taxes because of the f***ing politicians squandering money which I am 100% sure Illinois has been doing for a long time. Illinois is broke due to negligence not because there isn't revenue. If they need to raise taxes to cover these pensions they absolutely better be going to that with the notion that taxes are not to be f***ed with for a while. Illinois, that is Chicago is one the highest taxed in the nation, yet they are always broke. That sounds like user error.
  13. This article shows Rauner is finally willing to partially play ball. He wasn't before and I think he caved due to the fact he would look mighty stupid if 400,000 kids were not able to go to school this Fall. Good for Rauner for doing his damn job. What is unethical and unconstitutional about the dems budget?
  14. QUOTE (JenksIsMyHero @ Jun 3, 2016 -> 09:01 AM) Someone remind me how Madigan continues to rule the state? They passed a budget that was unconstitutional. Rauner is doing the right thing IMO by telling Madigan to go jump in a lake. Standing up to Madigan and his cronies is exactly what this state needs. Sadly, the stupid people of this state will blame Rauner and Madigan will continue to hold all the power. I believe the democratic machine in Illinois needs to be eliminated with extreme prejudice but Rauner is not helping matters by what he is doing. If he continues on this destructive path it will not end well for him. The government has a few basic jobs and one of the most important ones is education. You can try to fight the rest of the pork spending that Illinois has but education and transportation are ones that should absolutely not be f***ed with. Get money to those organizations with compromise and continue the f***ing fight, it's not rocket science unless you're Rauner who is underneath his exterior is a racist and oligarch looking to push the standard republican agenda.
  15. Rauner is probably going to get recalled.
  16. QUOTE (greg775 @ May 24, 2016 -> 03:12 PM) They seem to do a nice job of getting you where you need to go if you miss a connection, etc. What's the best airline to take from KC to Honolulu? I have no idea. My guess is you'll have to transfer at a bigger hub and fly from there. What options do you have in KC? I'm assuming AA and UA atleast.
  17. QUOTE (brett05 @ Jun 3, 2016 -> 07:40 AM) It's more of he's better than the other two remaining candidates. Not much more to say than that.
