  1. Okay, Brian … where in Boston did you eat? Did you try No Names? And … Chicago Beef vs Philly Cheesteak? (I already told you my preference in that contest.)
  2. Cmon, keep it going! I don't wanna wait 'till the 3rd inning to see Bux's 1st at bat!
  3. You'll just have to wait until the game thread comes out to see the lineups!
  4. If Clinton is the nominee I will vote for her. Given the candidates in the Republican group, and given the current state of the Republican Party, all I can say for each and every one of them is 'No way in Hell!' Bernie Sanders, at this point, would be my choice but I'm not sure he will get the nomination. By the way, I'm not a Democrat. I am party-unaffiliated, but I am a very liberal voter. In national elections I usually vote Democratic as I feel that's the lesser of two evils. Also, as a woman, it will never, ever be in my best interests to vote Republican or have a Republican elected, given the state of the current party, so I will cast my vote for the best chance to beat whomever the Republican is. In state and local elections I'm more exacting with my votes.
  5. You can read the article and comment here.
  6. I'm really curious to find out the corresponding move ... Hicks to DL? A pitcher (Deunsing) gone? Robinson gone? Someone else gone?
  7. Okay … i gotta get outa here … this noise from that damn spring awakening thingie is making me ill. Later all ...
  8. lol … spinowner will (if he reads this.) It was one of his favorites as a young child, so I'm told.
  9. sigh. I might just go to work early. Noise from all directions is driving me nuts.
  10. http://onlinebooksforchildren.com/sites/default/files/IfIRanTheZoo.jpg We could end up worse.
  11. This is what's going on in 'my neighborhood' this weekend: http://springawakeningfestival.com http://www.dewtour.com/actionsports/event/chicago-2015 https://www.cityofchicago.org/city/en/depts/dca/supp_info/chicago_blues_festival.html Needless to say it brings with it a very eclectic clientele and sounds. The first on the list is the most annoying in terms of sound. It's a constant rumble … like standing right next to a freight train going by.
  12. Well, I disagree and still think you are putting too much on this. <shrug>
  13. But that's what I think it would take … and I personally think, if I were on the other side, I wouldn't take less than at least one of those two, along with others. It's not something I willing to part with as I don't think it would be worth it. Guess we just disagree.
  14. I can and I think it will be more than I'm willing to part with which makes it unrealistic, imo.
  15. Again … I put the onus of that on the RP, not Hicks. I'm not saying that Hicks should stay out there forever and that his non-catch is 'forgivable.' I'm saying that it's not equal to the relief pitching problem and that they should take a much higher percentage in the loss. And everyone else who didn't hit when there were opportunities to score more runs earlier in the game. I just think you are laying too much at one person's feet.
  16. I don't disagree with that. But what I'm suggesting is 'first things first.' And that I think you (the collective 'you' not the singular 'you') are using this one bad play to scapegoat Hicks to support an argument to get Buxton here now. And Buxton coming up is something I'm more 50-50 about … at least as a first step.
  17. While I think Hicks should've caught that, I think he's the lesser problem right now and is an easy scapegoat to last night's loss. An 8th inning RP shouldn't be giving up a walk then a single followed by another RP giving up a hard hit ball to deep center. Thats the more glaring problem, not Hicks.
