    I'll be there all weekend.
  2. I'll be there Friday and damn right we better bump into each other! The best part about going is seeing great friends!
  3. I am not too keen about the part of the article that suggests that Colon might be our opening day pitcher. As far as I am concerned, it is Buehrle's team, and that it should remain such. MB is our #1 and that should be made clear.
  4. I always liked Parque and I wish Jim all the best.
  5. I know little about the guy - what is that about, about him talking s*** - someone said the same thing on the MLB boards
  6. eventually - which gives him 5 - no one in Michigan ever understood Chicago's swoon over Rodman, there were reasons he was known as Worm here, but, there is was - traffic all blocked up on the Kennedy as everyone beat off to Rodman's picture on the Bigsby Karruthers (spelling) building - what was that all about anyhow?
  7. then that proves that KW likes you better... the ones that I usually get are from my ticket rep, although I get other ones from the Sox sometimes that are not always identical so who knows. I just forward them on to my friends who think I have some super in with the WS.

    by getting Willie Harris' taxi cab driver would be one way...
  9. The WS email me on all their signings and trades -- but not because I am special, only because I am a seasons ticket holder.
  10. Rodman was first on the 95-96 team. Remember that I said Reinsdorf WON with Rodman, that is why he took another chance on another bad character.
  11. Just got this in the email from the WS WHITE SOX AGREE TO TERMS ON ONE-YEAR CONTRACT WITH RIGHT-HANDER TOM GORDON CHICAGO - The Chicago White Sox have agreed to terms on a one-year contract with free agent pitcher Tom Gordon. The move was announced this afternoon by Ken Williams, White Sox general manager. Gordon, 35, went 1-3 with a 3.38 ERA (16 ER/42.2 IP) and no saves in 34 relief appearances with the Chicago Cubs and Houston Astros in 2002. He missed most of the first half of 2002 with a Teres Major muscle tear in the back of his right shoulder. The 5-10, 190-pound right-hander made his debut on July 2 and finished the season with an average of 10.1 strikeouts (48 SO) per 9.0 IP. Gordon, who was traded by the Cubs to the Astros on August 20, compiled a 0.92 ERA (2 ER/ 19.2 IP) in 15 outings from August 10-September 12, including scoreless streaks of 8.2 IP and 10.0 IP. Over his 14-year career, Gordon is 106-101 with a 4.11 ERA (792 ER/ 1,733.0 IP), 1,546 strikeouts and 98 saves in 525 games (203 starts). Gordon’s best season as a reliever came in 1998 with Boston when he recorded a league-leading 46 saves.
  12. That trade has to be at best neutral in that at least we got a few months of pitching out of Wells and nobody has gotten from Sirotka since. And whatever Wells did with Buerhle is a positive. But Wells was also a Ditka-wannabe, wanted to own Chicago and he shot off his mouth (about Frank) like he possessed all truth and knowledge. I am glad he is gone.
  13. That would probably be "obscene" and who could blame him for that? I miss it when Belle was on the Tribe and he'd come to bat and we'd all chant, "corked bat." And I always figured that since a JR team got Dennis Rodman and won, that was why he was ok to get Belle. I have a bunch of Belle Sox shirts for home use (would never wear them in public); the giftshop at Comiskey had them on sale for $5 @ a few years ago and you can't beat that price.

    Olivo

    I think Olivo will do just fine and I stopped liking Bradford sometime during game 1 of the 2000 playoffs.
  15. no, it was the only way that I could keep track of the predictions or rumors, to do it one at a time, sorry --

    Barrett

    I can answer that for HSC - that is how she has called them - along with Borchard -
  17. This one happened, and give all credit to Murcielangelo, but when I buy him a couple of beers at a game, I will spill one on his lap for the "the Skank" comment (as well as his refusal to comment on his promise of what he would do to KW should KW ever sign Colon... )
  18. Any possibility this may yet happen, or is window of opportunity closed?
  19. I give all thanks to the Almighty Soverign of the Universe that this did not transpire!
  20. this was only a wished for rumor not a real rumor so can't evaluate this one - but since I ove HSC for being such a hot sox babe, I give her 100 points to Gryfferndore.
  21. Is this one still a possibility or has Ochoa signed elsehwere?
  22. thanfully this rumor did not happen because it came into play in a rumor that did happen - but points given for reminding that Liefer was being shopped
