The TB broadcast was just talking about his HR stroke. That's now 9 HR in 17 games.

My PTC starts things off with a base hit up the middle!

I have a feeling it's not going to take long to tie this back up.

QUOTE(whitesoxin' @ Jul 5, 2005 -> 06:40 PM) We need more! It does get kind of tiring, but after hearing that he was a hair away from Jeter I got my motivation back and have been going pretty die hard all day. Same, I'm in a good groove with it now. I have to watch tonight's game on MLB.tv, since it's on WCIU. So I'll be voting, while I watch the game.

QUOTE(aboz56 @ Jul 5, 2005 -> 06:28 PM) Thanks for the news greasy, since I still have my student Id I'm going to try and get my sister to get a friend who doesn't want tickets to get them for me so I can be at the majority of the games. Of course at the MSU game I'll be wearing my green though. Sweet man. I just hope we can get a full slate again. I think the demand's going to be really high for tickets again this year with all the hype that's coming with this season of IU basketball. This season, we got tickets for all 12 home games that took place while we weren't on break. And Balta, I believe the team's going to be really successful this year. Teams are going to have a lot of trouble with our big men this year, and Bracey's gone (I still don't know how he got drafted). And I agree on where you stand with Davis. I've been a backer up to this point. However, I believe the expectations for what Davis has to do this year are beyond just qualifying for the tournament. If he can't do that, I'll have given up on him, and IU will have too. It would then be time for a change.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jul 5, 2005 -> 06:23 PM) Can't complain about seeing more money go to my Alma Mater. I just wish we could win a few damn basketball games again. I didn't know you were another of the IU guys on here. I'll be a sophomore this year. We're definitely going to be back on the map after this year.

I heard murmurs of this during the last school year from my friend who's a manager for the team. Some reason this will probably be blown out of proportions by some IU alums about keeping all traditions. However, the vintage ones were become very costly and hard to maintain. It was difficult to get the right lights for the old one, and replace them in the scoreboard. One of the old ones New scoreboard http://iuhoosiers.com/mensbasketball/news/...bk07-05-05.html

Another ESPN poll gem.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Jul 5, 2005 -> 04:56 PM) Borderline HOF candidate right now. But he does have some serious post-season heroics that should push him over the edge. QUOTE(danman31 @ Jul 5, 2005 -> 04:53 PM) It's Curt Schilling as I suspected.

QUOTE(bsox12 @ Jul 5, 2005 -> 04:51 PM) Hello all, I'm new to the board and I'm a big fan of Jermaine Dye. I 'm just curious to know what kind of second half you think he will have, and will he make a big impact to the "Pale Hoze" second half? bsox12 He's definitely going to get into a groove now. It seems he's heated up with the weather. Like DB said, I can see him giving us 30 HRs and 100+RBIs. BTW, welcome to the board.

QUOTE(AnthraxFan93 @ Jul 5, 2005 -> 04:42 PM) yes we all know its maddux, I would love to see him turn out 1/2 as good as that. But something is wrong with him and they need to fix it.. even in triple-a he sucks. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/players/stat...ontext=pitching

QUOTE(DePloderer @ Jul 4, 2005 -> 04:47 PM) Thanks guys. I'll have a go at Frank soon. Can you think of a tag line? Awesome. Hmm..I'm horrible with phrases. You could use the HR call. "You can put it on the board"

Damn, I'm obsessed with this team. I was thinking this was going to have something to do with Podsednik.

Haha, I saw that last night. I miss Wimpy. This was definitely the last thing I expected seeing that title.

Definitely my favorite one you've done. Could you make a Frank like that?

QUOTE(whitesoxin' @ Jul 4, 2005 -> 11:46 AM) I can't believe I'm watching people eat hot dogs. I'm mad I missed it. Did that insane Japanese guy win again?

QUOTE(SoxFan562004 @ Jul 4, 2005 -> 10:28 AM) uh-oh, wasn't there concern that Paulie's participation in his last HR Derby screwed up his swing and tanked his second half? Meh, he's had a "HR derby swing" all year.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jul 4, 2005 -> 09:38 AM) Come on guys, this is much more important than those stupid Chicago team polls vs the Cubs. This is the All-Star game. This gets recorded in MLB history. I was telling WH last night that the All-City team was just spring training. This time it's for real.

Looks to be a 40% chance of scattered T-Storms throughout the entire span of the game. http://www.weather.com/activities/health/s...6hr_topnav_skin

I found this to be pretty funny.... "Is this not the same dude stalking both Lindsay and Hilary?" I know it's not easy, but sometimes you have to make a choice.

Hope you two have a good birthday as well!
