QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 09:07 PM) You sure about that? Dunn walked a ton. Positive and he doesn't strike out as much

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Apr 20, 2015 -> 01:43 PM) That is Sucker Punch with Superman and Batman. Snyder is about to Michael Bay the DC universe 1. That's kind of an ignorant comment but I will say that based on the 1 minute of footage that we were shown, that it more like a Zack Snyder film, he's embracing his auteur a little more here. (Look up auteur theory) Again we only saw not even a minute of footage and all of it was out of context. Never judge a movie by its trailer, especially its teaser trailer 2. There is nothing wrong with Micheal Bay the filmmaker.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Apr 20, 2015 -> 02:07 PM) The new Star Wars movie looks awesome. Then they also released a teaser for the OTHER new Star Wars movie called "Rogue One", which is an anthology movie set between Episodes III and IV, and is about a band of rebel fighters who work to steal the plans of the Death Star. Apparently there will be no Jedis in the movie, because they want it as realistic a Star Wars movie as they can make. It's going to be a hardcore war movie in the vein of Saving Private Ryan, Blackhawk Down, etc. I think that's an interesting take that may bring in viewers who aren't big Star Wars fans, but do enjoy war movies. Wouldn't say that they making it realistic but that the Jedi were basically extinct during that time frame so it makes sense not to have them in it.

QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 09:03 PM) Left handed batter who strikes out way too much. Where have we seen that before? You know LaRoche walks more and Im guessing he has a higher contact rate than Dunn.

QUOTE (winninguglyin83 @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 08:21 PM) Buddy Bell has one more conference call to pitch Jared Mitchell's potential. Im really rotfling

QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 09:01 PM) I'm already tired of LaRoche, he's going to be Adam Dunn Jr. ?

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 08:52 PM) Can't dwell on that inning, offense needs to come out and score some f***ing runs. Thank you.

QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 08:50 PM) This coaching staff is f***ing stupid. I can't support them. They're clueless. You're grounded

QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 08:48 PM) Haha Robin struck again. You stupid f***ing bastard Leave, you're grounded

Would have kept Hector in the game, he was pitching pretty well.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 20, 2015 -> 01:06 PM) I watched that last trailer and felt like I was watching a nostalgia piece rather than a new interesting story. The last time I saw Abrams do something that was "too much of a nostalgia piece" it was Into Darkness and that was a fairly weak movie. That was the point of the trailer, it was meant to evoke nostalgia. This is JJ Abrams that we're talking about, he is one of the most secretive filmmakers on the planet, the fact that they gave no details about the actual plot of the movie was done on purpose. People like to say 'don't judge a book by the cover', the same applies to movies, 'don't judge a movie by its trailer/title. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Apr 20, 2015 -> 01:42 PM) Im excited for star wars because I read a lot of the post RotJ books, and I have a pretty good idea where the story is going. And it certainly is not a nostalgia piece(if I am right), its a new start, and a very good one at that. The entire Expanded Universe (EU) has been thrown out, meaning that they are no longer considered to be canon. The Force Awakens is an original story by JJ Abrams, Lawrence Kasdan and George Lucas.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 17, 2015 -> 12:07 PM) http://chicagoist.com/2015/04/17/leaked_ba..._dawn_of_ju.php Batman vs Superman trailer leaked Hopefully it's as awesome as it looks. Went to the IMAX event downtown and as a token of appreciation WB gave us the two posters and a ticket to a see a early screening of the movie before it comes out, I think a week or 10 days before. And we got to see Superman and Batman go at it.

QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 07:31 PM) Wasn't a bad pitch he just caught up to a high fastball Completely agree.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 07:31 PM) C'mon Hector you're pitching for your job right now. Don't know about that

I always hated Carlos Santana's music

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 07:28 AM) Good luck, it sounds like an interesting idea. But don't take this the wrong way, just trying to help, but that synopsis paragraph needs some major overhaul grammatically and structurally before you publish it. Thanks, I double major in English and I am not pleased with myself. Let me add that synopsis is old and that I should probably add the new one.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 11:08 AM) Five posts in and nobody has asked the most important question yet: Will this miniseries have any female nudity? The first scene involves the mayor of Chicago killing a hooker, who looks very, very young. So maybe.....

QUOTE (IowaSoxFan @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 01:25 PM) I don't think the Sox are going to go high school bat in the first round without second and third round picks as they don't have a way to back up the pick with a higher floor player. I think if the Sox are going to sign Reyes, they have enough depth in the system at OF not to go after Tucker who will cost probably most if not all of your slot at that pick. The Sox are going to need to be creative to add as much high level talent as possible in the draft, going all in on a first round pick is not a good path to success. Tucker likely is gone by the Astros at #5 anyway so the point is pretty moot. Judging on buzz thus far: 1. Arizona - Brendan Rogers 2. Houston - Dillon Tate 3. Colorado - Carson Fulmer 4. Texas - Chad Smith 5. Houston - Kyle Tucker 6. Minnesota - ? Mike Nikorak 7. Boston - Alex Bregman 8. SOX - ? Reyes is not a outfielder in the majors, he'll be playing first base in majors. I believe Kiley McDaniel reports and you can pretty much chalk up Reyes to the White Sox as a done deal. Once it is officially announced by the club on July 2nd, I am going to start think of him as the first baseman of the future and as Abreu's potential, long term replacement. And you said that the Sox are going to want to save money with their pick, thats the whole Houston Astros m.o., they save as much money as they can in regards to amateur talent and spread their resources around. That probably rules out Tucker for them as well. I see that they are mocked to Tate, who is a college player in this draft, but I can see Tate getting every penny that he is entitled to and not signing below slot.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 01:31 PM) My guess is absolutely yes No. Didn't he start a game a few days ago?

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Apr 20, 2015 -> 12:32 PM) That is awesome and it sounds very interesting!!! It has been a very exciting time for me. Me and my partner feel like the guys from entourage before they got famous

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Apr 20, 2015 -> 04:13 PM) A LF who hits .290 with 25 HR and plus defense in the OF? That's an All Star level player. Heck that's a guy who could get MVP votes if he does even a little better than that. That's an insane projection. I mean I hope he does, but sheesh. You are absolutely correct, at reddit when we did our reports on players, we wrote our projections under the assumption that everything pans out for that player and that's what I wrote for Kyle Tucker. That's what I wrote when I 'scouted' him and that's what I'm sticking to.

I would draft Kyle Tucker at #8 overall and have him be my LF of the future. I think he's going to be a guy that's hits for .290 while hitting 25 homers and driving in 95 rbi a year from the left side of the plate. And he projects as a plus defender in the outfield. Can you imagine an outfield featuring him and Micker together?

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Apr 16, 2015 -> 01:28 PM) Jesus, Star War nerds are out in full effect today. My Twitter is chalked full of it. Why is there so much excitement for franchise that (1) hasn't been good for decades and (2) was always a bit overrated and has been passed, numerous times, by other, better franchises/stories? What make believe and delusional world do you live in?

QUOTE (Brian @ Apr 17, 2015 -> 04:29 PM) Ditto. The whole look of his films and CGI are just brutal to me. What don't you like about it?
