QUOTE (kwolf68 @ Apr 5, 2010 -> 02:35 PM) I think Ozzie wanted to risk the steal...cause he'll have Juan leading off next inning. Teahen can steal a few bases, it was a good throw by the Indians catcher. I don't mind stealing there. Juan isn't gonna hit an extra base hit, but he could easily get a single which woulda picked up another run. Yeah with Juan's complete lack of any power i'm actually fine with it there too

QUOTE (Wanne @ Apr 5, 2010 -> 02:27 PM) MLB really hilighting Mark's gem. Makes sense, not too often they get to do it for a perfect game. How many were there last decade? 3?

Good way to start the season right there.

Konerko!

So is the Gameday mini no longer an option?

Teahen seems like a real quality individual

QUOTE (qwerty @ Apr 4, 2010 -> 03:41 PM) I cannot believe people bought into the idiocy that was the ultimate warrior. This thread should be locked with the key thrown away. This thread will just be another way for jimh to get off to himself throughout the entire season. It's pathetic, absolutely pathetic. Brando and jimh should start up their forum, but they would likely end up banning one another simultaneously. +eleventy

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 1, 2010 -> 03:20 PM) Well played.

I just had to delete a post I made. ESPN is fooling me left and right today. I'm a rahtard.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 1, 2010 -> 10:56 AM) Then you have no basis to have any opinion to agree or disagree. Jack Bauer is f***ing awesome. That.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 1, 2010 -> 11:18 AM) Who are you referring to? Jurassic

Recent tweets from Mark Titus within the last hour I really can't see him staying, I mean Turner would (should) be a top 3 pick if he came out. As a college bball fan i'd love him to come back and OSU would have to be a top 2 team next year pre-season but I just can't see it happening.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Apr 1, 2010 -> 01:33 AM) I was just as shocked. I remember hearing the sox saw him as another Ellsbury clone. Guess not. Didn't that come from that scout here a couple years back?

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Mar 31, 2010 -> 11:58 PM) Econometrics, you are so very rude to me. I actually enjoyed that class when I took up. Of course that may have been because I was a statistics major.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Mar 31, 2010 -> 03:08 PM) Last but certainly not least... the Padres?

Stumbled across this here...not sure whether it means anything or not.

QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 30, 2010 -> 10:11 PM) People really don't understand KW's comments. He's simply asking Ozzie to start Andruw Jones instead of Kotsay on Opening Day. But isn't Andruw Jones really only an imposter?

QUOTE (earthshiner @ Mar 31, 2010 -> 08:51 AM) http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/official_info/offic...l_scorer_10.jsp the last one I think he means how does he get a FIVE inning save in a 9 inning game when only two pitchers picthed? Doesn't the starter have to throw at least 5 innings to qualify for the win? If so, that should have made Colon the pitcher of record I believe. Unless rules are different in ST...?

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 30, 2010 -> 04:13 PM) Not sure how you think that's possible. 75% of this country drinks at least occasionally - what % are alcoholics? 1% maybe? Cocaine, after 2-3 uses, is something like 30% addictive. They are on different levels for addiction. I'm mostly on your side of the debate, but I know for a fact there is no way that is even close to true and we'll just leave it at that.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 30, 2010 -> 04:09 PM) Completely disagree. Alcohol is not nearly as addictive as cocaine, not the same universe. The great majority of people can have an occasional drink and not be addicted - if the great majority of people did cocaine a few times, we'd have 10's of millions of addicts. And while alcohol does represent danger to society, mostly due to DUI problems, a person with a few drinks in them is not nearly as likely to be violent as someone on cocaine. I'm not very sure where you're getting the violence thing from. I don't actually think that's true. The real danger is when you mix the two. Cocaine has a false sobering quality to a drunk person that can create a dangerous situation.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Mar 30, 2010 -> 04:08 PM) Kids don't have legal access to vodka either. So once they turn 18 (21) you won't care anymore?

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Mar 30, 2010 -> 04:07 PM) I see no difference in cocaine or alcohol in terms of impact to society or tendency to become an addiction. One was selected arbitrarily to be legal while the other is demonized. And no, I am not a user. Cocaine can also kill you pretty much instantaneously and without warning, while alcohol doesnt have that direct capability. I don't think cocaine is any more addictive than alcohol, but it is leaps and bounds more dangerous.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Mar 30, 2010 -> 03:57 PM) How is your life impacted if you next door neighbor enjoys cocaine? Possibly not directly at all, but that doesn't mean I want it legally available and accessible to anyone who wants it. Wood you want your kids to be able to walk down to the local store whenever they pleased and be able to buy an 8-ball, for example?
