Well, the Bulls still suck

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 07:49 PM) The Bears have done nothing to prove otherwise. The Sox and Bulls have legitimate stars on their teams. I'd consider Pernell McPhee and Alshon Jeffery stars. Pace and Fox had a good 1st year considering everything. Good draft, free agency was average, development in young players was a huge positive. I definitely trust the Bears organization now than the Bulls.

QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 06:57 PM) Cliff Corcoran of SI just called what the Sox did with their catching situation "the worst move if he offseason" on MLBN. True story. Went on to talk about Flowers being a league average catcher with elite pitch framing, Avila shouldn't be catching anymore and Navarro is terrible defensively. ODowd responds...you're really digging deep with that one . Saw that and I laughed.

These 2 need to sign already. We've been talking about these 2 to Baltimore for 2-3 weeks now. Getting annoying, just like the rest of this off season since the Frazier trade. (I did love the Latos and Albers signing)

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 01:45 PM) Ok that's just super f***ed. Was she trolling you? No lol

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 12:19 PM) Holy s*** dude, seriously? Wow. That would absolutely drive me up the wall if my lady critiqued everything I did and she would have been gone a long time ago. Thankfully, she's not at all like that and we get along like two peas in a pod. Reading the stuff in this thread just makes me even more greatful for the relationship the little lady and I have. Yeah, I started laughing and then she wanted to show me how to do it. I was just like, "are you serious right now?" Just insane.

Traded Garrett Richards ($12) for Brian McCann ($8)

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 11:51 AM) Apparently Gasol has been told that he will probably not be traded, and might even be extended. The Bulls are in NBA hell.

What have scouts said on how Hernandez game will translate to the MLB?

Bulls in discussions for Shabazz Napier

Whitman killed that press conference. #InWhitmanWeTrust

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Feb 17, 2016 -> 05:31 PM) Thanks. We met and there was a great instant connection and we started dating, but just the day-to-day things weren't compatible. Mostly centered around I'm extremely laid back and she's a little more high strung (not in a bad way, just a description). We just didn't really connect, every thing I wore was critiqued, she'd always want to go out and do "fun" things and dinner and a movie, or an occasional relaxing night wasn't really for her. So just things like that, as you said "personality conflict". That really sums it up. We discussed issues, I'd say I'd try harder to do more "fun" things, but it just didn't work out. Weird mix of, damn I miss her, but fully realizing it would never work, even if one of us changed for a short time all the issues would pop up in short order. How long were you dating? I'm kind of in the same boat that everything I do is critiqued. I've been dating my girlfriend for 5 years and she wants to move in after I graduate in May, but I really don't want to because I don't have a job lined up yet and no money for rent on a place. Just last week she said I was spreading mayonnaise on my sandwich wrong. I dropped the knife and walked out of the kitchen.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 10:10 AM) The match itself would suck and I'm not usually a nostalgia guy but I'd actually love Taker-Sting for whatever reason. I don't ever want to see Goldberg again though. Did you not like Goldberg?

Outside of the Cubs, the Bulls are my least favorite team. I like them, I'll root for them, but they are ran by morons.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 09:38 AM) People can b**** at ozzfest all they want, but if the Bulls don't move a piece or 2,particularly Pau who could get you something, it is a GarPax fail. I can't blame them for not trading Snell. Someone would actually have to want him. I completely agree.

Jared Allen retires.

We all know nothing is going to happen.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 08:46 AM) From a Sacramento board If we somehow got Okafor to come back home, I'll pick him up from the airport.

QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 06:46 AM) Polish Sausage pregame, funnel cake later. Where I had my seats last year, there was a funnel cake stand right outside my section. Loved it. Didn't miss a pitch.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 08:18 AM) The Dodgers need him as insurance for Puig, Pederson and Crawford. He was their best all-around outfielder the second half of the season. Plus, he's very expensive...and aging. Too much to pay for a platoon bat. They don't need Ethier. The Dodgers also have Thompson, Van Slyke, and Hernandez out there. One of them has to go. I wonder what the asking price for Puig is.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 08:23 AM) So, the current rumor is Gasol and Snell for McLemore, Koufos, and lowering the protections of the Sacramento pick to which we have the rights. There is also another deal being discussed which includes Marco Belinelli returning to the Bulls, but the parameters of that are unclear. The 76ers are also gauging interest in Jahlil Okafor. I'd do that Gasol trade in a second. The protection would probably go to top 8 protected.

So, my professor asks the class yesterday anyone know who the most famous person from Davenport, Iowa is? I didn't say it out loud, but definitely thought to myself, Seth Rollins lol.

Wideman suspension upheld at 20 games. He sent this text message to a teammate.... Frank SeravalliVerified account ‏@frank_seravalli Wideman sent text msg to teammate on Feb. 2: "(t)he only problem and the only reason I'm here is cause the stupid refs and stupid media." Elliotte Friedman ‏@FriedgeHNIC 11m11 minutes ago How did the NHL get Wideman's text messages? Subpoena. I didn't know they had that power, but evidently they do.

I might get blasted for this, but what about De Aza? Mets looking to trade him, he for sure will come cheap. Can platoon him with Avi. Sure, he doesn't upgrade the overall defense, but he's still a decent hitter.

QUOTE (Tony @ Feb 16, 2016 -> 09:02 PM) I know he isn't playing, but I wonder if they aren't working on a bigger deal for Drouin, QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Feb 16, 2016 -> 09:10 PM) If they could get him without giving up Teravainen, that would be outstanding. Do you guys think Drouin would be a good fit with the Hawks? He already has an attitude problem and not much of a defender. I'd have a feeling he'd get in Q's doghouse real quick. Don't get me wrong, huge talent, but is the attitude there, and is he a good fit for the Hawks. What you guys think?
