  1. QUOTE(Punch and Judy Garland @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 11:34 AM) Definitely right that your source was money, no question about it. This is bad for baseball though. I feel good about it.. It means the policy and testing are working. I was a conspiracy theorist before. (I'm sure there may be some other conspiracies theories floating around now about latin players. I thought it was odd that they couldn't catch a big name.) Sure it hurts the image of the game, but I'll take a few hits at the image if it means the game is clean.
  2. Howard and Kotchman won't clear waivers, that's just dumb. Overbay would be a huge coup, if he was able to slide through waivers to some team.
  3. QUOTE(UofIChiSox @ Jul 31, 2005 -> 09:45 PM) My theory on this is that Peter Gammons not only reports first on all of the deals, but is actually the mastermind behind them all. Since he was in Cooperstown, not orchestrating the deadline deals, very little went down.. Gammons rules the baseball world. I'm so using that one
  4. QUOTE(ChiSoxyGirl @ Jul 31, 2005 -> 05:29 PM) Or I also really enjoyed The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime--funny, quirky. That would be a great book for a 'club' -- The story teller is an autistic child, so the reading level is accessable, and the story is a very cute one.
  5. QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ Jul 29, 2005 -> 01:32 PM) I just picked up "The Numbers Game" at walden today. First time in a long while, i just randomly bought a book at the mall. I'm excited to read it. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detai...=books&n=507846 I really liked this book.... Lots of neat stuff that I didn't know about baseball's past, especially the root of statistics. Not really good material for a book club though I think.
  6. QUOTE(SoxFanForever @ Jul 22, 2005 -> 01:02 PM) It was too tempting to pass up haha. I've been half ass posting that for a couple days...Mockingly, obviously... Everyone's favorite A ball prospect is putting up a .250 OBP with a 18/1 K/BB ratio in AAA... CALL HIM UP NOW!
  7. SB, Stop being so rational, and help us figure out a package that will get us David Wright
  8. You heard that Colon declined to sign his contract because of deferred money.... You heard that maggs did the same... You have no insider knowlege of either. You weren't privy to the negotiations. They wanted more money, not less deffered money. They both got it.. I suppose that's my agenda. Truth is overrated I guess.
  9. QUOTE(Tadahito15 @ Jul 22, 2005 -> 11:25 AM) Well, within 10 days we will see if this deal is true at all. Less than that if Shingo is part of our package. I'd say so... The Trade deadline is the 31st
  10. Keep bangin that deffered contracts drum SSI... There's no truth to it. But keep bangin it. You're fighting the good fight man. For those of you who are living in reality.... The Sox cary no player on the current team with a deffered contract. "the sox love deffered contracts" "the sox love deffered contracts" "the sox love deffered contracts" Maybe that will make it go away.
  11. This is funnier than the Illgauscus (sp) argument you got in a while back..... Next week Willie will piss you off and you'll admit you're wrong.
  12. QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Jul 21, 2005 -> 11:08 PM) do a search with my Username Re: Guzman. LOL This is my favorite one -- http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=25255
  13. Sure as the Sun rises in the east... CubKilla is here during a 3-game skid
  14. Ozzie said 'maybe if Frank doesn't play tomorrow we will know more' or something like that in Ozzie speak. -- That's akin to kenny getting giggly in an interview. Think outside the box a little bit people.
  15. I BET CASEY DAIGLE WOULDA CAUGHT THAT POP UP!!!ONE1!1
  16. QUOTE(Brian @ Jul 21, 2005 -> 11:06 PM) Please tell me your joking. do a search with my Username Re: Guzman. LOL
  17. I told you we should have signed Guzman
  18. This place is gonna be terrible when we get swept this weekend.... Good thing I'm going on Vacation. I suggest many of you take a break too.
  19. I Blame negative posts.... They are sucking the positive energy out of this team.
