  1. Our old friend Stanley Cup champion Nick Boynton was in the news today. Was arrested for being beligerant at a Buffalo casino and then bit the hand of the officer arresting him. http://espn.go.com/nhl/story/_/id/12562746/arizona-coyotes-broadcaster-nick-boynton-arrested-incident-buffalo-casino
  2. So is this basically a result of him trying to doctor their books for their own lawsuit against the Cubs? If so, that is some sweet, sweet justice. Amazing. Should have sold your building before the Cubs lawyers found your dirt. This is getting ugly and I love it.
  3. Awesome...I was wondering when that might start going up.
  4. kid from colorado. can't think of his name. miss him dearly. skyballer? yaaaaaaassssssssssss he was obsessed with that Alter Bridge band too. Well obviously, they are better than the Beatles
  5. Was this posted? John fox says Cutler will have to earn the starting QB job in an open competition http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/03/27/john-fox-cutler-will-have-to-earn-the-job-in-an-open-competition/ I don't think that it really means too much, it's still almost certainly Cutler's to lose.
  6. Gah Javy guessing that entire AB and is rewarded by striking out on a pitch well outside the zone.
  7. Me too but part of me fears we've entered into a whole new era of umpire bashing.
  8. Bernstein said he's an idiot. The tweet was childish and unnecessary, made an observation he shouldn't have made. Said there's a time to be crass and this wasn't it.
  9. 1pm cant come soon enough Actually Who You Crappin should be fun whether or not Dan's on the air.
  10. Finish 3rd, they get the Preds. Finish 1st, they get the Wild. Either way they'd have home ice against in a series against the Wild. The ideal spot is the #2 spot vs Nashville. They pissed away one of their games in hand last night. Yup...they havent looked good at all the last 3 games, 4-0 loss to Dallas, 3-1 win over Carolina that everyone says they looked terrible in (missed that one) and 4-1 loss to Philly. 3 teams that are not going to sniff the playoffs and we looked bad in all 3. Of course they were 6-1-0 in the 7 games prior so who knows whats going on with the team. Last year they slumped a little to the finish and were a bad bounce away from likely winning the Cup.
  11. DiCaro probably wants a job at the Score and doesn't want to burn bridges
  12. Guess the Hawks are just happy with the third seed. Getting blown out by a [expletive] team..
  13. They are certainly doing a...more interesting job of marketing him.
  14. Man can we fire Klinsmann yet? I'm not even asking from a tactical standpoint because I am nowhere near qualified to comment on that. I'm just sick of watching this team lose.
  15. Since I don't see myself ever using heroin, I presume reading this article is the next best thing: http://grantland.com/features/2015-mlb-preview-chicago-cubs-world-series-contenders/
  16. What jersey said. Especially not for just half his already modest salary...wtf What if the Cubs won't eat his deal to get rid of him? I guess its not the end of the world for him to be a mop up guy. I realize that this would open up another can of worms with regards to the Cubs financial flexibility, but focusing on this hypothetical situation which to me doesn't seem too outrageous of a scenario, what is the best solution to the Jaxon problem, keeping in mind that trip to colonize Mars won't launch for another decade or so.
  17. Does anyone else look at the pictures posted online or drive by Wrigley and wonder how in the hell they are going to host a baseball game in 11 days? It looks like a gigantic mess, and not just the bleachers.
  18. Can we do one of those things where we basically just give then Castillo, but they have to take Jaxon and half his salary? That might honestly be the most productive return the Cubs could get.
  19. Gah tonight was a great chance to gain ground as St Louis was in Pittsburgh and Nashville had to play Montreal. Of course both teams got OT victories.
  20. 10?? Are you serious? How many days off do you expect Bryant to get in Iowa over 3 weeks?
  21. Walk free. At least he was hitting the strike zone!
  22. thats hilarious. that's how you earn a spot in the rotation!
  23. Apparently Hendricks threw 5 innings of 1 hit ball
  24. arrested, but charges eventually dropped, I believe is the sequence. http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/49ers/2014/11/10/ray-mcdonald-not-charged-felony-domestic-violence-assault/18801223/ Was arrested but never charged. Sounds like the investigation was bungled. I just remember him getting arrested because I was thinking he wouldn't be able to play against the Bears in week 2.
