  1. maybe stamkos See there might be players you could argue are better or have more value (like Giroux, Stamkos, Malkin, Crosby), but even if I were to agree, the difference in talent is not much and not enough to overcome the emotional attachment that Toews has built in Chicago. It's like LeBron is better than Rose, but most Bulls fans wouldnt trade Rose for LeBron. But the gap between Rose and LeBron is even bigger IMO than Toews and someone like Stamkos And this is why fans aren't GMs. There isn't a GM in the world that wouldn't trade Rose for LeBron... lebron has to not malfunction and burn down the ghetto once. not that rose is adept at it. but i DO know it's the cool thing to be loving on lebron and hating on rose, rather than see lebron as a heartless and soulless golem, misinterpreting commands his rabbi has given him.

It's like LeBron is better than Rose, but most Bulls fans wouldnt trade Rose for LeBron. But the gap between Rose and LeBron is even bigger IMO than Toews and someone like Stamkos he's just the perfect combination of player and leader. he has no flaws in his game. he's young, he's already won almost everything, and guys just follow him because he always backs it up in the big moments. all that cliche stuff like leadership/grit etc etc actually matters in hockey. i'm not saying he's necessarily better than all those guys, but would i trade him for them? i couldn't do it. he's just too perfect. i don't know, having a guy that scores goals like stamkos would be pretty sweet
  3. malkin's pretty good, too
  4. i miss looking at vicente padilla, his face is so kissable
  5. oh that ghetto is going to burn with jew and gentile alike.
  6. i don't know much about soccer, but i think i'm gay for christiano ronaldo
  7. i was rooting for him, it was a nice story
  8. unless they plan on bringing up jackson, then yes, i'd imagine that the sox would have to pick up a majority of his contract, seeing as how the only other alternative is campana. otherwise, there's no reason to trade him. Campana has already been called up with Demp going to the DL. yes, i know. but essentially he's replacing byrd, whose production he is unlikely to eclipse.

  10. it's a shame that 25 games raffi torres won them a playoff series. what's to stop teams from doing the same to any star in the league?
  11. i just want the white sox games moved so i can listen to boers and bernstein again
  12. i like the new one. the old one was a cigar store indian.
  13. i am harassing the hell out of jms397
  14. the old logo was embarrassing.
  15. check this [expletive] thread out. http://mbd.scout.com/mb.aspx?s=169&f=2616&t=8922952 then i get this....
  16. there's just no way i see us scoring again in this series.
  17. not our series hopefully there's nothing long-term wrong with hoss, i guess i'll take that.
  18. every single questionable calls and some not very questionable, have gone against us
  19. why would anyone go to law school in this day and age?
  20. maybe a space shuttle will crash on russell's head
  21. look, i just wanted someone that can kill a quarterback and a million good receivers that catch anything thrown at them.
  22. we're in year 3 of waiting mode already. true, 2 more years then.
  23. i can't wait until garza is hit by a tractor, castro gets AIDS from a toilet seat and rizzo, jackson, baez, and vogelbach are killed by falling stagelights at a performance of cats.
