  1. I will be there as well....Sounds like a victory to me!!
  2. Yahoo Finance Hope this is what your looking for... I use Yahoo all the time for historical stock price information when working on stock basis information for tax returns....Should be what you need...
  3. QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Apr 17, 2005 -> 06:21 PM) Yes, go to San Diego. Awesome awesome city. LCR if your reading this, tell your brother to move down to San Diego for the week you visit, lol. Weather will be awesome. I'm going to be going to the 3 games in San Diego. You can go to the Pads games in down town (fantastic stadium) and then afterwards go to the gas lamp district which has bars and all that sort of stuff. Places where you can go and dance too or listen to live music as well, depending on your interests. I try and go there a few times a year and its a total blast. However if you stay in San Diego I'd say spend a couple days there, make sure you go to the beach (its really nice there, Mission Bay). Take a drive out to Coronado Island, very nice. If your interested you can go into Mexico for a day (personally I stay away due to bad experiences there). Then I'd recommend going into Orange County and LA for a day or two to check out the sites there. Ha...well it sounds like i'm definitely in now...We might have to do a mini soxtalk get together if we have a few people in attendance. I've heard nothing but great things about san diego and I'm really pumped about checking it out!!
  4. California Question, Part Deux... Has anyone ever been to San Diego, because im tentatively planning a trip to check out the Sox while they are down there...1. Does this sound like a good idea? 2. Should I plan on my entire week there or should I take a drive out someplace else while im down there? Thanks and Chisoxfn I'm expecting a response from you!!
  5. QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Apr 17, 2005 -> 11:28 AM) You meant to put that in green, right? Unfortunately he probably didn't.... As for this thread, I'm optimistic that our bullpen will and should be fine. Once, everyone settles into their roles which should be... Long Reliever: Cotts 6th or 7th Inning: Politte RH Specialist: Shingo LH Specialist/setup: Marte Setup guy: Vizcaino Closer: Hermanson I REALLLY REALLY like our bullpen!
  6. QUOTE(BridgeportHeather @ Apr 17, 2005 -> 10:07 AM) Let's just hope that the Sox bats will :begood today. I'm sensing an offensive explosion today..at least five runs!!
  7. Sounds shady... Yahoo News This story has been strange enough and took another turn.. She is no longer taking wendy's to court for the finger in her food, makes you wonder
  8. Mariotti likes it better when all of our teams lose, give him more material... STOP READING HIS GARBAGE!!!!!

  13. I will be at the Sat April 16 game. One of my teacher friends can get 75% discount tickets so I cant refuse that deal. Other than that I will have to see but I plan on hitting up at least 3 games this month.

    I need a book...

    If you want to stay with the book outdoes the movie theme then I would recommend "Bringing Out the Dead" by Joe Connelly. Amazing book, not so amazing movie...
  16. QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Apr 1, 2005 -> 03:45 PM) 2 stories Someone I knew (huge Cub fan) told me a similar story. I guess they were staying at the same hotel as the Cubs during ST. I guess a white kid came up to Shawn Dunston and asked him for his autograph and he said 'No, I don't sign autographs for white kids". I tend to belive it since it came from a Cub fan. One of the worst stories I ever heard. Someone I knew who was a cabbie in the 80's told me he picked up Ryne Sandberg once. The cabbie's son is a huge Cub fan, so he strikes up a conversation with Ryno. Five seconds into him telling Ryno that his kid loves the Cubs and idolizes him etc., Ryno interrupts him and 'Hey, can you turn the radio up'? I guess athletes can be jerks........like everyone else. I'm not saying that Shawon Dunston story isnt true but I've met him a few times and he is a REALLY REALLY nice guy. Got his autograph about 10 years ago myself and yes I'm white...
  17. QUOTE(Jabroni @ Apr 1, 2005 -> 12:53 PM) Did anyone like Royce "The Choice" Clayton when he was on the Sox? All he did was steal playing time from the Valenstache who was much better. I always considered that shortstop combo as the greater of two evils..one who couldnt field and the other who couldnt hit...needless to say we didnt perform well that season :headshake
  18. Anyone else have tickets to the USA vs. England game at Soldier Field?? I'm pumped...4th Row Section 136!!!

  20. QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Mar 31, 2005 -> 06:51 PM) Yep, that settles it, she looks just like a horse. And I thought I was picky.... Apparently I'm attracted to horses
  21. QUOTE(RockRaines @ Mar 31, 2005 -> 11:37 AM) Illinois is the basketball form of the cubs during their playoff run. Orange krush your bandwagon is boarding. HEHE....since my avatar has been the same for over a year i'll refrain for comment on this post
  22. All this talk about backup catchers is a little well, meh.... IMO, if the three headed monster of Widger, Davis and Burke see more than 175 AB's this year combined we are in big trouble. AJ should and will see the majority of the playing time. Your backup catcher should be solid defensively, be able to stay healthy and if he is able to carry a bat to the plate is good enough for me. Sandy was pretty bad last year. Burke, once again a good guy who put his time in, is nothing more and nothing less. He is below average defensively (no matter where you put him). He's well for lack of a better word, OLD, and he hit relatively well last year but I wouldnt bank on his consistent inside-out sawed-off singles into right field on a timely basis. So lets not fret we have AJ, hopefully he stays healthy and were good to go
  23. QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Mar 31, 2005 -> 09:20 AM) ChiSox that's a pretty accurate take on the recruiting situation. I'm expecting that this final four and possible NC will help Weber recruit. Right now there is no doubt he's having issues. Losing Wright to Self really pissed me off, and the Palmer situation was very sticky. Both were very unfortunate, would have really helped the class. If we could snag Rush, this wouldn't be that bad...but this next class better be killer, or we're gonna have some problems keeping this an elite program. Agreed, we have to follow up this class with a Top Five class...you need role players, but without a few stars role players become mediocre real quick. The Palmer situation was at best, confusing, and to be completely honest after seeing him play a few times with Oak Hill i'm glad we didnt keep him. I do feel bad for him, and was happy to see him git a scholly with Seton Hall, lets wish him the best. Have you seen much footage of Rush? He is a ridiculous dunker, the type of guy who electrifies the crowd...I would love to have him for a year or two. BTW, I do frequent the IlliniBoard, hence forth the vast knowledge on the recruiting situation

QUOTE(CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Mar 31, 2005 -> 09:16 AM) There is only one person who's posts annoy me slightly but being a relative newbie and the person I refer to is considered a God/Goddess around here , I'll choose the high road and STFU. Oh the suspense is killing me to find out who it is!!!
