    Good pick by Toronto getting PJ Tucker
  2. Seconded Pepsi is the official soft drink of Major League Baseball Coke is the official soft drink of not tasting like its diet version
  3. Farnsworth Thome Dmitri Papelbon
  4. Sox tied it 3-3. Phew that was fast! Hawk and DJ commending each other and taking credit because they called it. What's so surprising about calling it? This team is good, charmed, and they're playing Pittsburgh.

    B, but it's impossible to grade now as we have no idea how these guys will turn out. My bet: Thomas becomes a slightly better version of Tyson, and Sefolosha is surprisingly effective.
  6. The Cubs' opponents are nothing if not perceptive. I don't believe this is the first time another team has moved a crappy pitcher into the rotation to face us this season. Prior pitches great, Cubs get shut out, Prior gets the L. Happens every time.

    Mardy is actually a decent pick, was one of the guys rumored to be headed to Chicago at 16.
  8. Andy

    And he virtually just said Duhon is gone. Unfortunately that was pretty much inevitable
  9. Andy

    HUH? He's buying the Penguins with Dan Marino.

    Pax on now. Needed length and anthleticism at several positions Thrilled he got Khryapa, Thomas and Sefolosha Believes that Thomas will excel in the Bulls environment Skiles holds players accountable Skiles on board with all the decisions today Glad he got a complement for Kirk/Ben

    I kinda thought TT might be pleased with that one. Eerily reminiscent of my immediate reaction to DeAngelo Williams a couple of months ago. :D
  12. Andy

    I trust Pax. If he wants TT and Sefolosha, then so do I.
  13. Dempster is having a crappy season, but I see no reason not to think that he deserves a chance to close for a team that can get him a save situation more than once a month, and for a manager that will pitch him more than once a week.
  14. How is it that our players are good enough to win with, and yet Dusty is doing a good job guiding them to 28-48?
  15. Gammons is the best there ever will be on ESPN baseball. I know that's not saying much, but it's very much the truth. Get on the air again soon, Pete.
  16. No objections here. Less Womack has to equal more Walker eventually, and I am interested to see Soto play.
  17. Those teams stink because they're in small markets and have no money... and because they've been terribly managed. The Cubs have the resources to be very successful, but they're incompetent in how they allocate these resources. Then, they keep around a moron like Dusty even though it's painfully obvious he should have been canned long ago. Not to mention that it's bad enough to try to follow this team through the computer. I really wouldn't want to waste the time commuting to and from Wrigley and spending money at the game to watch the Cubs lose 7-1. Oh, I agree in that I'm not wasting my money going to games to see them get stomped. However, I still don't see how the much ballyhooed boycott of the Cubs is going to help things. Getting competent management will help things not lowering team revenue. That would only give the Tribune company an excuse to lower payroll. I'm with CM here and am going to three more games this season, stupid a waste of money as it is, this is still my team. I'm not big on hating on the fact that we're one of the few fanbases in sports that doesn't run into a corner and hide when the team isn't good.
  18. Yes, we know White Sox fans have an anti-ESPN agenda, just like they have an anti-Jay Mariotti agenda, and an anti-Cubs agenda. Really, And I thought we were so Pro-ESPN and Pro-mariotti. And you always come off as so Pro-sox. Yes, but White Sox fans have some sort of anti-agenda that they make a priority to hate on these things. We don't. We may not like ESPN or Mariotti, but we don't complain every day about them like Sox fans do. But we (by we i mean you) do complain about the white sox and their fans every day. You remember we root for the CUBS here, right? Yes, I root for the Cubs, but I only complain about the Sox when fans bring it up. If you didn't bring them up, you'd see. YOU STARTED THIS THREAD Also true
  19. I was in LF last night, this is war :wink:
  20. Bring in more experienced vets to get this team rolling. I hear Russ Ortiz is available. Nope, he signed with the O's. Damn

  23. The good news is that not even Hendry would trade DLee for making such comments
  24. Seconded
