  1. I believe the ruling on the play was not that it was a blocked punt (which occurs when you touch the ball after it has contacted the foot), but a fumble which happened to go off of the punters foot... The Illinois player clearly swatted the ball down.... It's a stupid rule.. But that's how we figured they ruled it when I was watchin w/ my Friends. I've gotta give credit to Illinois, they played a great game... I called Purdue's D underrated, I based that off of last years defense more than anything. They were really good vs. the run last year. Yesterday they were abismal. Also Drew Tate is Good. I miss Bob Sanders and Fred Russel(Who had 1 year of eligability left)
  2. Your opinoins can only carry as much weight as you grammar can hold...
  3. From now on Ross Gload shall be know as .... OMGload
  4. I must admit that was much more impressive than I thought ILL would be on offence
  5. What themes are you guys using -- I haven't really found one that I really dig.
  6. Any good sports bar should have ESPN Gameplan and you should be able to watch pretty much any semi-major game.
  7. This is the first day of the CFB season that I'm actually excited about... I wanna watch the Purdue/Illinois game then flip over and watch Iowa/Michigan -- I don't care if it's a nice day outside I'm sitting in my lounge chair watchin football
  8. Welcome to Soxtalk. First round's on me.
  9. I've got an extension that randomly generates different browser names... Throwing off website tracking info.... It says I'm currently running Mozilla SpaceCheat. I've customized the random options so it's always a variable of the Cheat.
  10. Willie had 2 months where he had more WALKS than hits.
  11. The first week of July the Sox hit sub 200 as a team. The writing was on the wall then.
  12. My feeling is that "hawk" has been here a lot longer than you think.

  14. /waiting for the Felix Diaz is a T-Ball stand post :rolly
  15. Not limitted to just pitchers. (lifted from my blog) I made a post last night where I stated that no player contributed to the demise of the Sox more than Joe Crede. Maybe that's a little harsh, but he's been the worst everyday third baseman in the AL this year. Before tonight, he was only better than Eric Hinske after the ASB. Maybe there was like some really bad radioactive dirt on the left side of our infield, because the same thing can be said of Jose Valentin too. He has been the worst offensive shortstop in the AL since the break. Aw hell, some of it must have spread across to the second base side of the bag too. Guess who's been the worst offensive 2B in the second half. Maybe Joe Borchard makes sand castles in the radioactive dirt, cuz he's been afflicted too. Seriously, how pitiful is that? The Sox have 4 position players with at least 150 PA's since the ASB who have been the worst at their respective positions at the simplest measure of offensive prowess. I'm going to take a break from bashing Timo Perez after realizing that one.
  16. I think the candidates are Takatsu Crosby Madritch Cabrera - Baltimore.(he was really good before getting worn down and being pretty bad -- Made his debut against Chicago winning 1-0) Greinke
  17. Actually Lew Ford is not. he spent too many days on the roster last season. So even though he didn't have the # of AB's to disqualify him from rookie status. Time on the bench cost him the award.
  18. My feeling is that they are married to their third baseman that they choose for next season for 2 years... It will be at least that long before Josh Fields can be ready. And there will not be another FA class for thirdbasemen like the one that's about to happen anytime soon.
  19. It is his highest RBI total against any one team, and one off of his highest HR total against any one team. FWIW.
  20. easy enough. .259/.318/.475 -- 8HR's and 31RBI in 158 AB's
