put me down as a "no" loved Robin almost more than anyone but his place with us is in the past

wow, those are great numbers Sox fans are back and soon Chicago will be ours again

I missed the game because I was working my second job - but just saw the sports coverage - looks like USCF was full - what type of crowd did we have?

and every athlete believes they are bullet proof damn

points 1-4 are excellent point 5 is good too, and JC will be there for us.

I am not taking sides in this they were not all Saudi. not all 19 of them. off hand IIRC it was like 15 out of 19 were Saudi. chnages the math a tad but doesn't obscure the central elements of this debate now, back to Point CounterPoint

life without Frank and Mags is not something I wanted to contemplate for about another decade

wrong way to look at it try instead: Nebraska and MSU got to watch the Olewein Marching Band

it would be great if you were right and that is a great looking sig there too - took you long enough to get that avatar up!

gees Heads, I think being on the Ben Davis bandwagon may be more lonely than what it was like cheering for Royce

A post from Murcie!!!!!!! you are too seldom here my friend later ok...

I don't know of any sox fans who were cheering for the cubs last playoffs - my perception buttressed by the way people were posting in here

The few times I have been on other team's boards, it looks like they have the same type of thing. soxtalk has the best posters though, in my opinion - I came over from whitesox.com and stayed because of the quality fo the posters - then the other extras here like real sox news and everything that turned into futuresox.com, that kept me staying

it would be cool if he did

welcome to soxtalk!

happy belated birthday and bump

his concert at USCF was awesome, too

For what it's worth, I think the story is true. Totally true. What would you do if you were on the plane, seeing dead crew, knowing of the other three planes - you are dead anyway, why not have your death have meaning. I hope that I would have done the same thing, to give one's death meaning rather than go like a lamb to be slaughtered. In the chaos of that morning there is no way some sort of elaborate make believe story could have happened, nor the elaborate planning of how to shoot down a plane at the exact right place in a vacant field as some of suggested - it just happened, it was just one of those things. And as for "let's roll" - that was the usual phrase of one of the four guys who led the charge - wonder what I would have said. Let's do it, let's go, alright now, something -I might have even said, "here we go White ox" which is a phrase I have been known to utter when confronting a challenge. this story rings very true to me in every way. And on that morning I think America would have welcomed a decisive action, there would be no reason cover up the intentional sooitng down of a 4th plane given what the other 3 had already done. Prior information was that Cheney did not give the shoot down order for aircraft in general until 93 had already crashed. I think a point of what we have learned so far is how unprepared we were for something like this. I think the crew and passengers on 93 were heroes, they wanted meaning to their deaths, and they gave it. I think it went down just as we have head. That is just my opinion, my gut instinct. What would you have done if you were on that plane knowing what they did? I like to think that I, and all of us, would have decided to go down fighting - they were the only passengers on any of the 4 flights that morning who knew what their fate was otherwise, and they gave meaning to their deaths.

they don't go away nothing is ever that easy

HB to one of the best Canadian posters ever!

Somehow I doubt that ELo is all shaken up that a poster at soxtalk has called him out. I am not even sure what this is supposed to mean. And it seems to me that whether he wins or loses or gets a no decsion tomorrow that he will be pitching the best he can and will do the same every game he pitches.

I don't have the 83 feeling - at least yet. Never riding too high or crashing too low based on any series or a couple of series, I am very optimistic about what may be happening however.

happiness is crushed buckeye nuts

Thank you - thank you a whole lot. That was so very nice!

you have finally discovered what a "buckeye" is
