PrintToday is the first of 9 free webcasts this spring through ChiSox.com
I know there is already a SSS Fantasy league, but SB*Nation has teamed up with CBSSports.com to form a partnership around their CBSSports.com Fantasy Commissioner League product. It's a premium service that they say features:
- Customize entire league the way you want...rules, scores, teams + more
- LIVE scoring & stats so you can follow along as your teams rack up points
- Keeper league capability to carry on the tradition for many seasons to come
- Expert analysis provides up-to-date information on all players & teams
- Live chat/league messenger to trash talk with your competition
- 14-Day Free Trial included
- SB*Nation discount -- 50% off your own league
Phew, now that I fulfilled my advertorial obligation, I'd like to offer some of you the opportunity to join me, (some of) the editorial team and fellow Sox bloggers in the now-official SSS Ultimate Fantasy Showdown. I sent out feelers yesterday to some of you, but a few emails bounced, and there should still be about 10-12 spots open. So if you're interested in participating in a private league that will be occasionally highlighted on SSS, express your interest in the comments, and I'll come up with a roster by next week, when we'll hammer out the finer league details.
Oh, and Billy, this is your gamethread.
CBSSports.com is an SB Nation partner and paying sponsor of the SB Nation baseball communities. This post is one of a series of sponsor endorsed posts related to the CBSSports.com Fantasy Baseball Commissioner League.

Mitchell's leading off
I'd rather have Rios steal 50 bases than hit 50 home runs. I want production.
Mitchell can definitely run

At least, unlike WGN, this broadcast will be ready to show the first at-bat of each inning
signature
Seriously..
How is this not corrected? It’s not like the inning breaks time length is random.
by Grinder in Training on Mar 5, 2010 2:28 PM CST up reply actions
you think they wanna correct selling an extra 10s ad every break?
i think they’re wondering if the can get away with skipping two pitches
MLB Atbat only gives the LA audio.
Not that I’m complaining.

Almost makes me feel bad that I only participated once, and kind of half-assed it that one time.

$40 million in guarantees for Peppers - not sure what to think
Obviously Angelo is trying to save his job so why not spend the McCaskeys money. I’m sure Urlacher, Harris and Briggs will welcome him with open arms.
Tommie Harris will open his arms, and then they will break.
Urlacher will say something snooty, and then tear his ACL coming down from his high horse.

They signed Chester Taylor and a 300lb tight end too
Probably a better blocker than any of the current o-linemen
Taylor is really good, so naturally he will be terrible.
And the O-line still sucks.

I forgot about that
he sure does it a lot, especially for a guy who walks his fair share.
You guys win. You can keep your little marked-out piece of internet territory. Spend your days communicating via keyboard with people too ugly for the real world and too nerdy for anyone to care, anyway. Your piece of land is here. Do the rest of civilization a favor and stay within its limits. You bore me.

did melton just say that konerko's liner, if not caught by the second baseman, probably would have gone to the wall?
really?

He also said "after those last 2 outs the Sox find themselves in a situation with 2 outs"
for someone with nothing to say he sure speaks alot.
Duh, Rios was already fixed in the offseason. 5 swings tells walk everything.
Says Walker, ‘’But to be honest, it took the first five swings in the cage to show me that he had passed the eye test. Mechanically, this is the Alex Rios I saw on tape when he was in Toronto.’’

Top Gear is better, by like a bazillion percent, but inbetweeners has some good moments
Just a Rip-off of the Actual El Guapo, but a fake not funny one.

is it time to fire greg walker yet?
sox are averaging 4.8 hits and 2.77 runs per 9 innings.

the rays-yankee game on mlbn
is at 3 1/2 hours so far, 11-7 rays, top of the 9th, and the yankee pitcher just walked the lead off batter for the rays.
is this really necessary?

Rios needs lasic eye surgery or something
he doesn’s appear to see the fucking ball.
have you seen his career BB/K rate?
he’s never seen the ball especially well.
I'd rather have Rios steal 50 bases than hit 50 home runs. I want production.
has there been speculation about this before?
there are plenty of big leaguers with less than stellar BB/K rates. presumably not all of them need lasik.
I'd rather have Rios steal 50 bases than hit 50 home runs. I want production.
you're the one agreeing that he's never seen the ball especially well.
i wasn’t overly serious. all teams do vision testing, i doubt it’s the problem.
you think he's seen the ball especially well over his career?
I'd rather have Rios steal 50 bases than hit 50 home runs. I want production.
If nothing else...
this post reminded me to change the email address on my account (“Not that larry would have invited me anyway,” he says, walking away kicking at the dirt and with his head hung low).
Now back to the game action….
yes, we're all different!
I'd rather have Rios steal 50 bases than hit 50 home runs. I want production.
On several occassions last year you could see him looking past the pitcher into CF as he's k'ing
maybe he’s like a free throw shooter and looks at where he wants the ball to go. I’ll email Walk to fix that.
you are a flighty fickle little girl
I'd rather have Rios steal 50 bases than hit 50 home runs. I want production.
Mitchell has looked pretty intriguing so far

there's always a better word than "intriguing" or "interesting" to describe something or someone.

How about "fascinatingly electric"?
You guys need to pay attention. Mitchell is for real.
I just don’t feel like killing anyone else for as long as I can help it.
"Electric" and "for real" is more descriptive.
Also racist.

Im starting to get excited too
I watched him in the CWS and he is the first legit “leadoff” prospect who can actually, you know, leadoff in like oh gosh, like forever

Way to undercut e-gus and the rest of the fantasy leaguers, Cheat.
Are you going on vacation soon? Fer Chrissakes. The day before the draft. You and SB Nation suck balls.
I just don’t feel like killing anyone else for as long as I can help it.
it's CBS' fault
follow the money, WU
I'd rather have Rios steal 50 bases than hit 50 home runs. I want production.
for the hoi in the now un-official SSS league...
the draft is at NOON TODAY.
turn on White Sox weekly on the Score and pick your players.
If there are any spots left
I’ll like in. I’m defending in my current keeper league, finished 2nd, 2nd, 1st the three years prior.
