  1. Congrats, Nellie! Probably the one who deserved it most
  2. There is a certain beauty in brevity ... let's hope for a beauty of a game!
  3. Fun times! Thanks, Brock!
  4. Curious … he wants to play elsewhere? He’s said this or hinted at this? Do you have a source or is that just what you think he thinks because he’s currently on a losing team? I hadn’t heard this so I’m curious what that is based on. Thanks.
  5. I would have to be overwhelmed to trade Donaldson, with pieces the Mets don't want to trade, and that's not going to happen. Whoever said it above, that it was likely the Mets who 'leaked' this story because their real interest is Kris Bryant ... that's likely the real story.
  6. That musical was pretty revolutionary when you think on it ... Poooooor Judd is daid, poor Judd Frye is daid ...
  7. No worries ... they got it done ...
  8. Okay ... thanks, SSo1 for that intro ... I will be singing 'Oklahoma!' tunes all evening ... and if the game goes south, maybe I'll put that movie on instead. It's one of my favorites.
  9. Prime example of why you shouldn't use an at-home, hair color kit
  10. I can't disagree more ... especially the clickbait title. Of all times? Really? There was NO THOUGHT into that ... it was for nothing more than to garner clicks. Hit and run. Come on, John ... you are better than that.
  11. It's a difficult job to write ... to identify what you want to write about, put some thought and research/analysis behind it, and be brave enough to put it out there for all to see. It's a tough job and I recognize that and appreciate the output of most all of the writers on this site because I can see the effort that went into it, whether or not I agree with it. It's something that I am not brave enough to do. And this site has done a terrific job putting together writers who do their due diligence and put out thoughtful and though-provoking articles; it's what sets it apart from the STrib comments, from Twitter, from other 'run-of-the-mill', 'fly-by-night' sites. However, the Donaldson article put out today (yesterday) lacked all of what I have come to expect from the output at this site ... thoughtful, due-diligence, effort. There is a huge difference between putting out something that is thought-provoking to inspire response and discussion than putting out something that is nothing more than a Twitter 'post and run' kind of thing. I'm sorry if that seems harsh, but that's what it is. I prefer the 'quality over quantity' that most every writer on this site follows. Articles like the recent Donaldson article, well ... that is something you expect to see in the forums from some random poster (and honestly, most of our posters do better than that) ... not a front-page article.
  12. Ugh ... no, not by a long shot. I've wanted Donaldson on my team since he played for the A's. I'm happy he's a Twin. This is so unworthy of a question, imho.
  13. You know what's classless, Gio? Cheating. Cheating is more than classless, you cheat

      This isn't a great look for Giolito.

  14. heh ... Giolito ... 'It was a classless move' ... you know what's classless, Gio? Cheating.
  15. The first photo came 2nd, the western sky after the rain in the 2nd photo passed through
  16. And here is the White Sox lineup: 1. Tim Anderson (R ) SS 2. Brian Goodwin (L) CF 3. Jose Abreu (R ) 1B 4. Yasmani Grandal (S) DH 5. Zack Collins (L) C 6. Andrew Vaughn (R ) LF 7. Gavin Sheets (L) RF 8. Leury Garcia (S) 3B 9. Danny Mendick (R ) 2B
  17. Today’s webcam view … and this is in the direction of the stadium and not a camera perspective that was extremely misleading to the actual weather we have been and are having. Hopefully by game time this will pass but we are getting more rain over the next couple of hours. At game time the chance of rain is only at 40-50%.
  18. We had some pretty horrific weather over the weekend with a lot a lot of rain and flooding ... the ground is pretty saturated, not to mention the rain we got on top of that today and were predicted to get. Yes, there were some breaks in the rain ... but the photo you posted, you can clearly see the start of gray clouds moving in from the west ... that one snip didn't tell the whole story by a long shot. I live here ... and the weather was awful all weekend. And given the time the game was called, I wasn't in the least surprised. However, it's not projected to be much better through the week, they might have been smart by trying to fit the game in today. We'll see.
  19. I should get out my phone, stand out on my balcony and start taking pics for proof! Too late now as it's completely dark out
  20. Lol ... okay ... so ... not only is the Field Museum NE of the stadium, that view is looking north and the stadium is west and south of there ... notice the clouds moving in? Yeah ... those gray ones on the left (from the west)? It's crappy here.
  21. I'm not sure what forecast you were looking at, but clear skies is not part of it ... we had a thunderstorm roll through around 3 this afternoon, with continuing rain off and on since then ... it's currently cloudy and wet outside with more t-storms on the horizon. As I just posted above, the whole week is in question.
