  1. If we suck and the season is over, WTF are you still doing here Shuf?  Get your whiny ass-clown self to a Bears board and leave us alone.

    I wouldn't say that myself but oops, your quote got in my thread :o

  2. Because Beltran would look real f***ing good in a Sox uni about right now, and, quite frankly, I really do not care the cost, so long as we are not crippled for the future.  If they want Sweeney, I say give him.  He may be a future 40-50 homer guy, but this team needs a f***ing spark, and it won't come from Joe Bo...nothing against him.

    they have what, 22 hours to do so...

     

    clock watching, begin now!

  3. Lower deck seats are better, IMO. I'm a former club level season ticket holder...I got tired of not being able to be an 'ass' real fast.

    UD for me unless I can get club - for many reasons I prefer being up there, inclduing much shorter lines for everything plus having whole park access if I want it

  4. Met D12 two weeks ago in an airport because of white sox logos

     

    Met Tommy and Sally (I think it was Sally) John at the Methodist Church downtown Chicago (The Chicago Temple) in 1970; he asked me for a hymnal.

     

    Met Mayor Daley and Senator George McGovern and Ted Kennedy at a political rally in the Daley Plaza in 1972

     

    Have known Michigan Governors Blanchard and Granholm and Senators Riegle, Levin, and Stabenow, and in May sat at the same table with Stabenow, Grannholm, Levin, and Missour Representative Dick Gephart at a Democratic dinner.

     

    Met Bob Archer, host of WGN's Barn dance and the first mayor of Schaumburg back in the 50s at a taping of Barn Dance

     

    Met someone who claimed to be a member of Steppenwolf in 1968 while petitioning for Eugene McCarthy

     

    Met John Dominic Crossan and Amy Jill Levine, he the greatest living Biblical scholar and she will be after Crossan leaves us, at several Biblical and theological conferences

     

    Met Taryn Fisk, Carlton's cousin, when she worked for me at a Jimmy John's in Kalamazoo; also know Rocky Biddle's dad and step mom and have met John Buehrle and have Jason Buehrle's autograph (much harder to get than Mark's)

     

    that may be it for me - others here have meet famous folks, lets share the stories. :bringit

  5. YASNY and Molto state it for me too.

     

    I can't be upset when the Sox play the game the way we wanted them to. Execution isn't perfect. They were trying to make something happen. It is what we wanted from Ozzie and expected from Ozzie so being upset with Ozzie seems counter productive.

  6. I thank God every chance I get because he spared me of a fate that so many others have when they have cancer. I spent a year and half in  the hospital and I met some people who didn't make it. God bless that young man he battled and he sadly things didn't turn out so well. I'm sure he was a fine boy and one hell of a White Sox fan. God Speed buddy my prayers are with the family :crying

    yo!

     

    thanks for sharing that personal information, and my prayers of joy are with you!

     

    And as Jeus wept for the death of a friend and blessed thouse who mourn, so we too can cry for this young man and his family and friends.

     

     

     

     

    (and we share something in common.... 13 years now... been there, done that, gives a whole different perspective to life and sports, eh?)
