  1. You are always #1 in our hearts. It's a long season . . . Championships are not won in April. Now be a good girl and go get the men some beers
  2. Sosa may have the Cubs HR record, but Banks will always be Mr. Cub.
  3. I am liking what we are seeing for the next few years (contracts hoefully worked out) Olivo, Kong, Harris, Uribe, Crede, Lee, A-Row, Maggs I think that would be competitive in our division for the next 3-4 years.
  4. The Bible tells us yes. It's an area that we have to have the faith that God forgives us our sins. It doesn't even have to be in prison. The killer may never have ben "caught" by anyone but God.

    I know. Just kidding. It has become a problem here as well. In my house this year we have had 10 fundraisers between my two kids, three at one time. That is why, if possible, I urge groups to look for corporate underwriting. Or stop and think if we really need a fundraiser to accomplish the program goals. For example, one group was trying to raise about $30 per person. To do that each kid needed to sell about $75 from a catalog. I asked f the parents would rather just send in the $30 or but $75 out of the book. (Face it most of the sales goes to family and friends.) THey chose the straight donation.

    OK, I'll donate, but that was a s***ty way to ask I have to do it all the time. I prefer asking for biger dollars from fewer people so I usually go to friends who own businesses and ask for a contribution. For the smaller stuff, I rotate. This person hears about Girl Scout Cookies, this person about Boy Scout Popcorn, this person get's the High School Tennis Team stuff, etc. Effectively? Do not worry about effective, just keep asking people. Play the numbers like a mutual fund.

    Off Day for the Sox.
  8. SportsCenter showed the lack of closers in the AL Central. Minny is the only team better than .500 in closing situations. And Koch shouldn't be a surprise. Disappointment, but not a surprise. The 2003 edition is back.
  9. Honey, you know Friday Jr. is going to his grandmas and his sister is at a sleep over, we'll be the only ones home. Just like before we had kids. Wanna make some noise? Dear, you know I'm day to day. . .
  10. I will never forgive you for that last comment.
  11. Sorry, it was my fault. I had him as my PTC.

    Don Imus crying ...

    I stayed up on all the current events this weekend, Sox won both

    fun poll

    Statistic fans will note the lovely bell curve we have going.
  14. It's the standard we are striving for, and precious few reach. I do not believe I could reach a level of total forgiveness in the situation that Nuke gave. When I finally "got" that part of the Lord's Prayer, I realized how difficult it is to be Christian.
  15. I was laughing at the sight. I believe Joey is around 160 and Frank is listed at 275. Here's an idea, .285 career batting average 491 HR
  16. The Edinburg Roadrunners start in early May. I cannot wait. The UTPA Broncs are on another road trip so I cannot even catch some college action.
  17. Gee he must think the Sox are a bigger deal right now. What an idiot. Doesn't he know the Cubs are #1 in this town. Always wrtite about the Cubs whenever possible. I'll bet if he were in NY he would write about the Mets and ignore the Yankees. He's written two Cub and two Sox articles so far this month. One article was how the Sox need to pony up the money and sign Maggs the other was about Thomas whining. Both hot topics on this board, and both with plenty of support. On the Cub side it was a part time Prior may be enough and how Maddux looks old and tired. Get a grip. He's writing about what Sox fans have been talking about. Or do you want him to tell us what we should be talking about?
  18. 3 were mine Number 20, isn't the all white the traditional battle flag of France?
  19. As I said there is no way we should expect E-Lo to maintain last year's pace.
  20. In a stunning bit of irony, he would find the shrimp farm closed
  21. Under 100 pitches. I wouldn't even have Marte up and throwing. I would send Koch out to pick up some pizzas for a post game party. Ooops they are in Florida, send Koch to pick up some boiled shrimp for the party.
  22. I love watching a catcher pick em up and put them down. 7 for 9 hits for extra bases
  23. So he writes about the Cuns we b**** he's not writing about the 1st place Sox. He writes about the Sox and we b**** he isn;t writing about the Cubs. Frank is one of the biggest super stars in Chicago, he's going to get press.
  24. Almost every player read it. I've known too many athletes to think they don't reaad the papers to see what is being written. It would take super human strength not to. If your company was in the news, would you read it?
