Illinois is 4-1. I'll take it anyway I can. Illinois just beat Nebraska! So happy right now.

I love you Chris Sale.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 2, 2015 -> 02:24 PM) Longoria is a name I had in the back of my head. He fits the bill as both a hitter, and fielder. Dont think we'd have to give up Q for him though.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Oct 2, 2015 -> 11:10 AM) Wow, that is big news. But with that said, while I haven't watched really any preseason, it could be good to give Dano a little bit of a wake up call, just because you were penciled in to play with Toews and Hossa, you have to earn it. See how he enjoys riding a bus in the AHL. While I expect the Hawks to be competitive this year, I'm also looking at it as sort of a development year as well. Not a bad thing. I could see Dano getting the Teuvo treatment from last year. Didn't make it out of camp last year, spend a month down in Rockford, come up and dominate. QUOTE (LDF @ Oct 2, 2015 -> 11:11 AM) they finally did it. according to some rumors, stan didn't want to do it, b/c he didn't want to loose bickell. why??? i just don't know what he see in him. i bet he goes unclaimed..... if he does, can the hawks bury him in the minors??? Yes, they would save 950K in cap.

Also, Bryan Bickell is on waivers.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Oct 2, 2015 -> 11:02 AM) You've been on the Heyward thing for awhile. No chance the Sox will be interested though. Sox were interested this last off season before the Cardinals got him. He's one player in free agency that fits the White Sox and still is young enough to build around the core of Abreu and Eaton.

Surprising cut of the day. Marko Dano sent to Rockford, WOW. Baun makes the team over him

QUOTE (LDF @ Oct 1, 2015 -> 10:36 PM) the hawks lost.... darling in the nets. i know this is preseason, but i still don't have confidence in darling. but what in hades do i know compared to coach Q. Darling has looked great this preseason besides last night when they basically threw out the IceHogs team. Considering how Darling changed his life and after his performance last year in regular season and playoffs, I have confidence in both him and Crawford. He's deserved it, just like the extension he got. If he does well again this year, could make Crawford and his 6 million cap hit expendable next summer.

Rumors that Carlito might be making a comeback with his brothers los matadores?

QUOTE (flavum @ Oct 1, 2015 -> 10:35 PM) 8. Tigers 73-85 9. White Sox 74-85 10. Padres 74-85 11. Mariners 75-84 This weekend: 3-0, don't do that 2-1, probably safe for 10 1-2, safe for 10 0-3, 8th pick As long as we are in the top 10 and get that 1st round pick protected, then I am happy.

Boston lost. Padres won. Arizona winning 2-1 in 3rd. Sox probably going to lose

Shooter was a 20 year old male. Confirmed dead. He killed at least 13 with 20 others wounded.

QUOTE (LDF @ Oct 1, 2015 -> 01:30 PM) nice update. the hawks will need to sweeten that deal to make the bickell move. they screwed the pooch on that rumored trade with arz. you would imagine it will go with bickell + 1rnd pick + ???? who will be the ??? They don't need to add a 1st round pick. Nikitin from EDM actually has a worse contract than Bickell, it just expires after this year. I could see Bickell and McNeil for Nikitin work.

Mark SpectorVerified account ‏@SportsnetSpec CHI is trying to move Bryan Bickell, with Seabrook deal kicking in next year, + Shaw, Kruger going RFA. Talked w/EDM 4 Nikitin, but no deal

QUOTE (woods of ypres @ Oct 1, 2015 -> 01:07 PM) Blue Jays or Mets for me. This would be the best WS for the league in my opinion. Houston/Pirates would intrigue me as well.

QUOTE (oldsox @ Oct 1, 2015 -> 08:21 AM) 2015? Were Sox going to take Benitendi if Bosox passed on him? 2014? We got our guy in Rodon. 2013? I can't remember who we wanted. Sox wanted Rodon and Fulmer the whole time. QUOTE (flavum @ Oct 1, 2015 -> 08:37 AM) Same order. All four lost last night. 8. Padres 73-85 9. Tigers 73-85 10. White Sox 74-84 11. Mariners 75-84 Tigers and Mariners off today. Final weekend: Sox host Tigers. Padres at Dodgers; A's at Mariners. Sox hold tie breaker advantage with the Mariners, so 2-2 the final four should keep them safe for the 10th pick. We also hold the tie breaker over the Padres and Tigers if our records were the same, correct?

EATON

This is where Goff is ranked so far this season. Per @PFF, Jared Goff is: #1 QB Rating #2 Accuracy % #1 Deep Passing #5 Under Pressure #1 Play Action #119/130 on time given in the pocket (meaning he's doing ^ those things with a complete train wreck of an offensive line)

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 29, 2015 -> 03:36 PM) Realistically they will have two first round picks next year, when you add in White taking the field,. Add in a high pick in round 2. QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Sep 29, 2015 -> 03:40 PM) Jeffrey should be a block as well. I agree.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Sep 29, 2015 -> 03:27 PM) Would be nice if Josh Norman or Sean Smith hit the market. I know the CB position has gotten "overpaid" but with the cap room the Bears have I'm fine with them going all in on one of em. Norman, Amaukamara, and Wilkerson are my top guys I want.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Sep 29, 2015 -> 03:23 PM) Sorry, I meant to say the team performance has sucked (i.e., won / loss). I am a huge fan of the current regime. I haven't heard about how great we have been practicing or any of that nonsense. It is clear that accountability exists at Halas Hall. That said, if special teams keeps doing what its doing, I expect to see some accountability their as well. Well, sucking was expected unless your a total homer. Pace really needs to hit on this next draft. 9 total picks and 7 of them, they will have in the 1-5 range of each round. Huge young names and a massive amount of cap space in free agency could be huge for the Bears as well.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Sep 29, 2015 -> 03:19 PM) Big difference between the previous regime and the current regime. We suck terribly in both regime's, but the current regime clearly is setting a tone that it is unacceptable and we will find new people until we right the ship. How can you say that this regime has sucked when they have been at it for half a year and inherited the least talented roster in the NFL?

QUOTE (AustinIllini @ Sep 29, 2015 -> 03:16 PM) Vereen waived. That's 8 Emery guys gone from the lineup. It's not hard to figure out why we're so bad. Lol. I'd be surprised if Emery ever gets a job in the NFL again. Trestman won't after this season with the Ravens.

QUOTE (LDF @ Sep 29, 2015 -> 12:38 PM) ok you asked, but seriously, i am not taking about bickell the person but his contract. 8 yrs of seabs contract. Bickell's contract is/was one of worst in NHL. Seabrook earned that deal. He's been really really good in every single cup run.
