    Predators looking to keep Chicago fans away.

    It said zip code so I guess that's just what I thought of right away. Credit card billing makes sense. But just because the fans from Chicago are kept out doesn't mean there aren't Hawks fans in the "allowed" areas. I think that a lot of the reason for the Hawks fans travelling so well is that...

    The Official 2013 White Sox Vent Thread

    He was a number 2 under Buehrle and a damn good one in my opinion. After that he got hurt a lot. Hence what I said before. Injury prone.

    2013 White Sox Waiver Trade Period Thread

    Hmm ok. I just figured he wouldn't want to move even further away from his real home. But I'm no expert.

    OT: NHL Players Allowed to play in Olympics

    Except in baseball it only matters for the 15 or so teams actually in the race at the point in the season. The rest of the fans know their team won't gain or lose anything by the all-star game. Also with a fan vote there is collective bitching over which players make it. Not like that in the...

    Predators looking to keep Chicago fans away.

    What a bunch of pussies they have running the marketing department. Herp derp lets not have the place sell out when the Stanley Cup champs come to town just so that there aren't any Hawks fans. Also...not that hard to google zip codes and put in a fake one. Nashville is a joke. A fucking joke.

    2013 White Sox Waiver Trade Period Thread

    That's shocking. But I wouldn't mind it. I'm not sure if Konerko would approve a trade to the Os though.

    The Official 2013 White Sox Vent Thread

    I wouldn't say that Danks is mediocre. Should he be the ace? No. Should he be the number 2? Maybe not. But mediocre isn't the right adjective. I'd say at this point he's injury prone. The shoulder isn't an "excuse for bad pitching" the shoulder is an injury that won't go away. Unfortunately...

    OT: NHL Players Allowed to play in Olympics

    I have no problem with the Hawks players and other NHL players playing in the olympics. It's an equal chance that a Blackhawks player gets injured as to a Penguins or Bruins player. The top teams in the league have the top talent. Those players are going to be on olympic squads. All the top...

    Stalgod gets his day with the Cup

    Someone should buy that bobblehead for Joe and have it shipped to his address. I personally found it hilarious when I was shopping for Stanley Cup Champs gear that they had a Stalberg bobble. In 2010 they only had like 5 players. This year it seemed like they had everyone.

    Pussies @ Sox IST

    What post season award is there for pitchers other than Cy Young? And we all know he won't win that.

    With the huge amount of outfielders the Sox have in the minors, I'd rather just have Tank move to 1st and see how that goes for a year. Not like the team is going to be in the race anyway so just see if that will work.

    Bernstein : A reason for White Sox Optimism.

    The talent level of the team that started the beginning of the season was a .500 team or maybe even a few games above .500. Injuries happened and certain players didn't perform up to the expectations. I can't remember who it was, but some baseball writer tweeted awhile back that the White Sox...

    White Sox Minors Thread

    I just saw that he was number 9 on some prospect list. I realize that doesn't help at all... :shrug: It's really good to see these young guys getting a lot of time in the majors. The lineup absolutely screams rebuild and I love it. The only way these guys are going to be better major league...

    Breaking: Alex Rios Traded To The Rangers

    Rios tweeted earlier today that he loves the energy in Texas. Not surprising since there is probably no energy with the White Sox right now. Profar for Rios is ridiculous. Even if Profar hasn't performed like he was expecting to, Texas still considers him one of their top prospects. Rios for...

    Hahn: Sox To Re-Shape Not Re-Build

    I really don't get why the entire White Sox organization has this phobia of using the world re build. Calling it a re-shape is the same damn thing as a re-build. Obviously the Sox are going to just gut the team. But no team ever does that. In the case of the Cubs they have said re-build and...
