welcome to soxtalk! this is the sox talk part of sox talk - the getting to know each other stuff takes place in sex lies and politics so better to talk here about how you came to be a sox fan or something, just a suggestion and again welcome!

from Chicago Sports

it is only right, that is the team we were going to beat in the 1994 World Series

Ishmookie proved he didn't start that thread - children, never have the computer on when friends are over! If they aren't embarassing you with weird posts, they will be looking for porn.

I love club section... I love the upper deck but I love club section -- get that one right to the right of home plate, first row, and never move!

up to you.... keep posting here daily!

that's why I picked it, bro!

my friend, you are always right!

depending on who is there, more than you will ever know

sweeping the Spos is key to sweeping the Cubs a week later... so lets get pysched for the Expos series!

I'd have the concession stands serve Caffeine Free Diet Coke and Blue Moon Beer, some no carb food, and move my seats to the club section. Any player moves would just get a lot of b****ing here so I'd so go for my favorite drinks, something to eat, and new seats!

if we are going to start all the game threads early... hope we sweep the Expos!

that is so last year! this year we are wiping up on them! I hope....

I was about to post the same thing - suggest it say "God Bless It"

no maybe about it

thank you to you and Mr Eye for the scoring

thank you

4-2 us? inning?

if you keep leaving the inning and score, I will include you in my will - thanks and please keep posting that info

then I apologise for not wording it well. Although might you both be awfully, awfully over sensitive? Go back to those days and the House GOP leadership was dead set against any US peace keeping missions in Rwanda. No nation building (as your candidate ran on in 1996 and 2000) at all. Gingrich and Delay were very clear on their total opposition to US involvment. That does not place the blame on the big bad republicans. After Somilia no one was wanting to get involved in Africa again. I very clearly said Clinton did nothing. He acquiesced. He did not go out and build a case, he didn't do anything. The Democrats in Congress did nothing. They could have made a case and failed to. If you think I am blaming one party here, I am not. I didn't, anywhere in this thread, and if someone says that one party is at fault, they are not being honest. Both sides shared equally and complicitly in the silence. When the UN pulled its small forces out the entire world abdicated. In retrospect, it is easy to second guess but the fact is on this one the moment Clinton started hinting he might want to act he got total opposition from across the aisle and Clinton went with that instead of doing anything and I am very sure that had Clinton actually pushed the matter the oppsoition would have included folks from his side of the aisle. So Clinton did nothing, he hinted, then he dropped it. Now how you can interpret that as blaming one side is beyond me. I blame my guy and my party and your party and its leadership and the Church and every nation in the world including the UN and the African nations and everyone. Given Somilia was still fresh in everyone's mind and given the opposition to Clinton sending some troops to Haiti (and that includes both sides of the aisle critics) and the later controversy over intervening in Kosovo, how anyone can imply that the failure to act in Rwanda was anything but mutual is beyond me. And it astounds me that some try to blame Clinton - as if they supported intervention then, which they did not. The failure to act was everyone's failure, the blame is on everyone, and anything else than mutual silence in the face of genocide here is just not reality, just not the way it was. And it was never a secret. It was fully reported in the print media. I don't watch much television so I don't know what the networks or cables ran but it was very fully examined in the print media and via NPR and BBC as soon as the Rwandan president's plane was shot down which started the killing spree. Everyone knew. The UN yanked its troops. It was all covered. It was all covered. The world - everyone - did nothing. To imply that only secret intelligence knew and Clinton hushed that - now that is bulls***. Alll one needs to do is go back and get the New Yorkers from that time period, or any of an number of journals, and it was all there, week by week as it unfolding. NPR and BBC were covering it daily. The whole world knew as it was happening. The very small contingent of UN troops felt threatened and withdrew and everyone knew. Clinton apologised as he should have. We all owe the dead an apology. We all did nothing. We. Collective. Humanity. Nations. UN NATO Africa the Church everyone failed everyone and everyone did nothing.

Controlled Chaos - your sig - I love it - it has the 3 tattoos I have and the next 2 I want to get if they can figure out how to tat yellow and white - awesome

you and me both one of the few players I really coveted from another team

the political discussions take place in the sex, lies, and politics forum You certainly get more intelligent discussions here, non of the troll like stuff from cary, et al; the political stuff can be heated at times but everyone stays friends or at least not enemies. A lot of the folks are friends though dispite differences. You get a lot of well-informed and documented things from all sides. And from all sides is about the way it is. I think people would give you different opinions on where most of soxtalk is politcally, or at elast those who post politically - the conservatives think the liberals are shouting them down and they are valiant witnesses against the flood and the liberals think the conservatives outnumber them and they are valiant witnesses against the flood. Of course you are one of the good guys so I encourage you to jump right in or whenever you are ready. Unlike mlb the opinions given are generally researched and thought through. Graphics are cool here, we have real genuis graphics people who do some grteat stuff. And f*** yeah you can swear if you want - my own opinion is better in the threads than in the thread titles but that is just me. We have no trolls here. They get booted immediately. That makes a huge difference. We also have some players who post and some folks with good knowledge and good connections including from both the big team and the minors so the information here is pretty astounding at times. If it is happening, liable to hear it here first. The analysis and the knowledge of the game places soxtalk way, way, way beyond mlb. If you like minor leagues, futuresox.com (linked at the top of the main page) is incredible. Again, beck, it is so good to see you here. Always enjoyed your stuff at mlb and so glad you are here.

I just turned the tv on and the first Sox play of the year that I saw was PK stealing successfully it was scary!

not at all like it once was
