I don't know about that guy and his weirdo fear stuff, but yeah, they can be annoying.

No kidding; he was trying to crank everything out into the streets. -
Bring us the Beef.

Except it's nothing like that since Wisconsin is Wisconsin and this is [expletive] Chicago. It's not like I live some hermetically sealed life on the upper northside around Wrigleyville like some kind of cracker-ass cracker. Another White Sox WS would be awwwwwful.

[expletive], JACKSON.

How or why? His BABIP is only .020 off his career average. The rest of his other numbers are all inline with his career numbers (LD, GB, FB, HR/FB percentages) are within 1% +/- . The only thing he's doing more than 1% better than his career numbers is walking about 4% more than usual 12.5 v. 8.6. He is what he is. An okay backup option whose gonna hit somewhere between .220-.250 have an OBP around .300 and SLG around .350. Could've fooled me. Another clutch walk in a big spot. What the what? You keep acting like you're pointing out things that can't be tracked. Do your damn homework.

How the hell do you figure that? His at-bats are always fantastic. He has a really good eye and drives the ball to the opposite field consistently. Those are things his numbers can show.

I care because I live in Chicago and I can't stand cocky White Sox fans. Plus the White Sox suck.

Come on, nobody has said "anyone but the Cardinals...and the White Sox?"

http://blogs.suntimes.com/bears/2012/09/jeff_fisher_get_off_jay_cutler.html I am glad someone said that. I agree with UMF, this whole thing is ridiculous. My favorite thing I saw this week was the CBS pregame show. They had Marino and Cowher discussing how Jay Cutler needs to change and it was wrong of him to do what he did. While Marino is speaking, the CBS producers cut to video of him (Marino) tearing into teammates on the sideline back when he played... then a video of him tearing into two assistant coaches on the sideline. Every quarterback does this. Brady, Manning, etc. Marino was famous for it--except when they do it, it is totally acceptable. I don't understand why Cutler is such a lightning rod for criticism. Pretty sure Marino wasn't running for his life in those games, also. Dan Marino should die of gonorrhea and rot in hell.

I like all the 9/11 Truther comments.

Trading Soriano

Oh, you mean like every trade ever? Thanks for clarifying. But every trade ever hasn't involved eating somewhere between 25-35MM worth of salary and a player who will be 37 years old next season. So yeah, it's likely that our side will be asking for a significant player return to make it worthwhile and the other side to be cautious about what they give up regardless of how much money is being absorbed. You're doing this on purpose, aren't you? -
See, the joke is that Germano is not a very good pitcher who gives up lots of home runs, except when he doesn't in which case he is a pitcher who does not give up lots of home runs. It's quite the gasser!

Love how the mic is basically picking up everything said by the fans.

Those are kinda one in the same, aren't they? If Wrigley becomes unusable then they need to find another location. They at least need to start threatening a move to the burbs somewhere. Or at least out of the city of Chicago so that Rahm will do something about the massive amount of lost tax revenue with such a move. How are they one and the same? If the Cubs left the city would still have to fix the place up if they wanted to keep using it; that's why that's the more pressing issue for the Cubs to use as leverage as opposed to pointlessly "threatening" to move.
-
The threat of an unusable Wrigley is more viable than threatening to move.
-
I mean, we're talking about something that's literally falling apart.

It's a huge asset to the city. This isn't someone trying to squeeze public funds for a pet project.

MORE DOMINATION.

Well, I fudged that up. I thought his WAR was 2.4, but that's his BR oWAR.
