The Beast

I don't see why this is such a big deal. I don't think Escobar can come back from the injury to be the top ranked player like he was, when he was the key component in the Roberto Alomar Indians/Mets deal a couple years ago. I'm hoping that now my boy Jamie Burke makes the team as a utility player. He can be played at 3rd, catcher, and outfield. I better not see that sorry piece of s*** Borchard on the team come April 4th. I hope they designate his ass for assignment, or release him, because he's a pain in the ass. You don't sit there and wait on a guy who got a bonus and hasn't lived up to anything. This year it is make or break for him, and since I saw what I saw in the Mexican League release, he's already behind. I'll rip on him all I want, because look at his numbers, and I'm not even seeing any injuries, so there's no excuse. I don't see any major infielder coming in, seeing as how we have Iguchi coming in to play 2nd base. And these relievers? I thought our bullpen was set...or are we discussing the sake of a 25th man here? Am I confused? rockin emoticons guys

Lots of ppl have moved on from the board. Maybe the youngins have grown up a little bit

He was a lot skinnier there...oh, and anyone want to guess why he's called the tiny one...ahem, down there,

I'm going to beat my 20 something games from last year. I'm a suburbs boy.

I want to be in an active league with a head to head format without quitters.

It's like your dog that you raised biting your hand while feeding him, running to your neighbors, and viciously barking at you every time you walk past his fence. Maggs- :finger I'm not going to turn on him though, that guy did great things for us when he was in Chicago.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Feb 7, 2005 -> 07:25 AM) Question for you Beastly. I know you're a Maggs fan, but do you think he's worth a 7 year deal for about $105 million considering Comerica Park isn't one of his favorite parks to hit in? Hell no. But at least he got a job. I didn't want to see Maggs in ruin like a few bastards on here did. Its not easy coming back from that injury and playing like you did before.

All you guys aren't thinking of what he did when he was here. So he signed with another team? We got Dye to replace him, who is a gamble yet, a lot more versatile. I will cheer when he comes back to Chicago.

Happy birthday Ian

I have this headset that my bros got for Christmas for PS2...I get back after my buddy was using it, and we take pretty good care of it. However, it seemed to be loose and when I picked it up, the speaker for the ear piece fell off, and the wire was torn. Should I bother spending another 30.00 on another one? I just think that was lame that it happened... Anyone else have problems with crappy PS2 products? I know I haven't gotten far in San Andreas because it seems to freeze on me in Los Santos...anyone else have any problems?

QUOTE(CubsSuck1 @ Feb 4, 2005 -> 06:49 PM) I wore my $5 replipca Belle jersey from the Sox Garage Sale to school the other day. I was forced to see that piece of s*** on his back...and his ugly face just kidding andrew.

QUOTE(Controlled Chaos @ Feb 4, 2005 -> 03:10 PM) INFORMATION FOR DADS... It's not the dress...it's the guy...take this sly lil stallion for example.... http://www.cameroncole.net/humor/prom.jpg That link will be shown to many people on my buddy list just because it is utterly hysterical! lmao

You still should wear it. That guy did so much for the White Sox when he was here, and I'll never forget him. I'll remember the void in right field...and seeing spectacular defensive plays. He's still my hero.

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ Feb 3, 2005 -> 01:22 AM) No. f*** you! You were breaking the law and they were doing their job. Agreed, f*** him...he broke the law, he needs to learn a lesson...and was lucky to not get arrested.

I'm in...

AJP will be a hot head and go through a slump and tell the media to piss off.

QUOTE(JimH @ Jan 31, 2005 -> 08:37 PM) No ... no ... no. Right Gil, wrong pew. Meant Heredia. The ex Oakland guy who went down to Mexico or may have just hung it up by now. Meche, would love him, that won't happen. Wait, wait, you mean Felix Heredia? Gil Heredia, beat out by Loaiza..those were the days...

QUOTE(quickman @ Jan 31, 2005 -> 07:50 PM) Please stop with your jokes I think its hysterical, I'm having a santa like chuckle

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Jan 31, 2005 -> 06:40 PM) A top 3 defensive unit of all time and one of the greatest running backs to play the game is really flukey. What. The. f***. I'd suspend that guy for calling sum1 a name, but u no, thats just me

QUOTE(quickman @ Jan 31, 2005 -> 06:45 PM) Relax, sometimes its just in the delivery. Write like a writer not like a teenager. i am not picking on you. You aren't, however, the others most certainly are, I write like a teenager on these boards, and write like a writer on other boards.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Jan 31, 2005 -> 06:37 PM) Beastly does have some point in the fact that we are NOWHERE near a bottom 10 offseason, thats absurd. For what Kenny Williams did, I'd rank us higher than the Mets.

QUOTE(quickman @ Jan 31, 2005 -> 06:42 PM) Don't you want to be a writer? Yeah, and I'm studying journalism. I just didn't like the article, why is everyone so friggin critical?

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Jan 31, 2005 -> 06:36 PM) OK -- Just let the record show that you've called one of the smartest, most respected, baseball minds there is a "stupid journalist who has no intelligence whatsoever" -- That doesn't exactly reflect well on your opinion, which you have to admit is clouded by a pair of think silver and black glasses. Well I don't agree with him. My point being that article is absurd, and that we tend to listen to what these writers say TOO much.

Well Mr. Editor, do you want to restate my post for me? Huh?
