You can buy hand held breathalyzers for under $100, but I'm not too sure how reliable they are. Don't a fair amount of boderline .08 DUI cases get thrown out? IMO DUI's are like speeding. If you're right around the limit you're not going to experience too many problems (as long as you are a reasonable driver while sober.) If you are way over the limit on DUI's or speeding, you got some problems. The way Dontrelle was described definately didn't sound like a .08 case.

I always saw the busty Megyn Price (Grounded for life) as a MILF.

How can I forget Bevington making a call to the bullpen with nobody warming up? Or him arguing with the umpire in Buggs Bunny fashion. "I was trying to say the ball was fair, but I was saying it was foul, and he was saying the ball was fair instead of saying the ball was foul." Carlos Lee getting picked off of third to end a one-run game against the Expos back in 2002. Graffanino not making the tag at third on a sacrafice against the Cubs. (thought it was a force out)

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Jan 12, 2007 -> 08:33 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The worse thing about that Neal Cotts game is Loaiza followed that up with a pretty damn good start vs the Tigers and we lost anyways if I remember correctly. I still dont know why Loaiza didnt just face the yanks. Loaiza threw a one hitter against the Yankees on the opening game. Manuel said he wanted Buehrle against the Tigers the game after the Yankee conclusion because Mark had a good career record against them. Of course, Buehrle didn't pitch that well and the Sox lost.

I wanted to recap some of these in the other thread, but it's not like they are some of the worst moments in Sox history. Dumbest moments in Sox history: --Jimenez losing a pop up resulting in 3 unearned runs in Oakland. --Ron Schueler drafting his daughter. --Carlos Lee posing at a long fly ball then getting thrown out at second in 2004. --Some catcher in the late 90's rolling a ball back to the mound against the D-Rays after thinking it was the third out resulting in a run scoring. --That 9th inning in the Twins game in August of 2005 with Garland and Silva. "He drops the ball! DAMN!!!!!" --Jaime Navarro complaining of run support despite having an ERA over 6.00. --Neal Cotts starting game 3 of the Yankee series in 2003. --The Jon Berry/Jeff Barry mixup with LA in 2001.

QUOTE(Steff @ Jan 11, 2007 -> 10:44 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I've never called her a ditz, but with video evidence I think it's a safe bet that she's a slut, which I have said she acts like. And would you mind pointing out to me where it is that I said he couldn't call him a jerk...? We also have evidence of his best friend and trainer possessing steroids and Bonds admitting to using steroids (unknowingly supposedly.) Your response was to WCSOX saying "it's how he treats people." It's obvious to see WCSOX is talking about Bonds in a negative light. WCSOX, do you think Bonds is a jerk? I read your response as "you never met him before, so you can't have an opinion on him."

QUOTE(CanOfCorn @ Jan 5, 2007 -> 09:33 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes I did...and answered earlier in the thread. Are you talking about this? QUOTE(CanOfCorn @ Dec 21, 2006 -> 10:56 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> First of all, Chicago is DEFINITELY a football town. Where else can hated rivals in the summer come together and cheer with each other in the winter? Not New York, they are divided in ALL sports. Not LA, unless you consider the Kings (which I don't). As for your other cities. I think you ar dead-on. Not sure about Detroit, but I think it's a coin flip between hockey and basketball. Houston? Football, hands down. Even with the Texans, who, um, aren't that good...there's still high school football and college football. In fact, I would default all of Texas to football. So your logic was that the HATE of the seperate baseball teams make this a football town??? I don't see you loking exclusively at the sport. Is the White Sox love + Cubs love > Bears love in this town? Maybe, but I certainly wouldn't say Bears love >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> White Sox love + Cubs love in this town. Plus wouldn't loving one baseball team and hating another one with a great passion (although not all Sox fans hate the Cubs and Vice Versa) make that sport more popular because the fan is so passionate both in a negative and positive fashion towards a team?

QUOTE(Steff @ Jan 11, 2007 -> 12:27 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Really... would you care to share your personal Barry experience..... I don't get this. WCsox can't think Bonds is a jerk because he never had a personal experience with him? What's your personal experience with Paris Hilton? I guess if you never met her before you have to right no call her a ditz or a slut?

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Jan 11, 2007 -> 07:19 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> However, I just wish they would do a COLA on the minimum wage so we wouldn't have to debate how cruel the EVVVVIIIIIIIIIL Republicans are for not passing wage hikes "for the poorest of the poor". How many people making minimum wage or around it live in section 8 housing or use link cards? They shouldn't get COLA if they're getting a price break on rent and food.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jan 10, 2007 -> 09:06 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That game against Minnesota that Loaiza started while sick which simultaneously cost us the division and him the Cy Young was pretty rough. Even worse was Flash Gordon sitting on the bench by himself in tears. The Cubs game on the 4th of July back in 2004 was pretty embarrasing on national TV. Buehrle pitches well, but Rusch shut us down. Marte walks in the winning run (which was like the 5th time the Sox walked in a run that year.) I remember Foulke giving up 6 straight singles to the Mariners to throw away and easy game in 2002. Also in Seattle, Koch pissed away a game on national TV in 2004.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jan 10, 2007 -> 02:12 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> MLB does not but independent baseball statistical organizations do like baseballinfosolutions.com and Stats Inc. Yep. I remember John Dewan being on Murphy's show over the summer talking about where Jenks, Thornton and MacDougal rank amongst hardest throwers, and they were near the overall leaders. Aardsma was the hardest thrower for the Cubs and was in the top 20 overall for highest average speed of a fastball IIRC. That is based on a two year sample, but on Murph's segment I think he just used 2006 statistics.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jan 10, 2007 -> 06:38 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Minimum Wage hike to $7.25 passes the House. Checking off #4... Is that large of a hike really necessary? I was thinking of starting a thread on this. How many people making minimum wage are high school students living with parents, college students working a campus job, retired folks bored with their lives, elderly, or people working a second job? I sure hope I get a 40% raise in the next two years. Then again I did get one a few months ago when jumping to a competitor.

I like how it's OK for fans to piss and moan when Mackowiak misplays yet another flyball, then blame Ozzie for being too dense to not play Mack in CF and call him a bad manager because of it, yet when Freddy stares at him or throws his hands up he's a bad teammate. I guess that makes the original complaining posters like shoota "bad fans." How come the second part of this quote wasn't bolded as well? It's very accurate.

21. For fun I tried to be extremely right wing as possible, including banning porno, supporting Reagan and Robertson, and being against AIDS research and Gays, and I still got a 33. I can't even imagine how NUKE got a 37. I did the same thing for the liberal side and got a 5

The only thing worse is probably the Brisco-Patterson evening gown match at a King of the Ring which involved either a maxi pad or a pair of depends. The crowd was dead from the start and the segment, and once the match started, they couldn't stop booing. The funniest part was when "Rosie" collapsed on the "Donald" and people thought the match was going to be over. The ref took forever to get the count, and "donald" kicked out at 2. The crowd was SOOOO pissed. They started chanting "TNA."

Dick Young, on Willie Mays not receiving a unanimous Hall of Fame vote: If Jesus Christ were to show up with his old baseball glove, some guys wouldn't vote for him. He dropped the cross three times, didn't he? Oh man, I love that quote describing the voting process.

QUOTE(Brian @ Jan 8, 2007 -> 07:26 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Trips out 4-6 months, meaning probably no WrestleMania which is a big hit for the E. They will definetley need to bring back one or some of Hogan, Rock, Jericho, etc for WM23 to make it interesting. Nah, they could always have a hell in a cell match between Rosie and the Donald. Holy s*** that was horrible

Would somebody please remind me of the last time the Sox had a "true" back up CF? I'm guessing 2003 with Rowand, but they didn't have a "true" everyday CF at the time.

QUOTE(SoxHawk1980 @ Jan 6, 2007 -> 11:05 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> He's one of those players that KW has an odd man crush on. Since when? After the Sox lost out on Vizquel, they were rumored to sign Cristian Guzman. Reinsdorf came out to the public and said they had no interest in signing him because his numbers away from the Merodome were "pathetic."

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jan 4, 2007 -> 05:24 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> So let's see, thus far, this deal works out for the Yankees as: The D-Backs get: Brad Halsey Dioner Navarro Javier Vazquez Something in the neighborhood of $9 million in the first deal Roughly $2 million in this deal The Yankees get: Luis Vizcaino Ross Ohlendorf (10-8 with a 3.29 ERA at Double-A Tennessee last season, made southern league all-star game) Alberto Gonzalez (a 24-year-old right-handed hitting SS, batted .290 in 129 games with Tennessee with six homers, 50 RBI and 20 doubles, supposedly solid defense, and is currently serving as the Attorney General of the United States) and potentially Steven Jackson (8-11 with a 2.65 ERA in 24 starts at Tennessee) 2 years of mediocre pitching from Randy Johnson, and 1 beaten up cameraman. Yeah, I'd say the D-Backs made out pretty well in that. Especially when you replace Javy with Chris Young. Still, I wouldn't have made the deal to get Johnson back. Randy Johnson was nowhere near mediocre in 2005. Just because he didn't win 30 games like Kruk predicted doesn't mean he wasn't that good. Let's start this trade from the beginning and look at the net result Yankees lose: Juan Rivera Nick Johnson Cash Dioner Navarro Brad Halsey a little more cash Yankees get: Luis Vizcaino Ross Ohlendorf Alberto Gonzalez Steven Jackson Sox lose: Vizcaino Chris Young El Duque Sox get: Vazquez a little cash Diamondbacks get: Chris Young Juan Cruz Evan MacLane Cash Diamondbacks lose: Ross Ohlendorf Alberto Gonzalez Steven Jackson Dioner Navarro Beltran Perez Danny Muegge William Juarez cash

QUOTE(klaus kinski @ Jan 5, 2007 -> 10:28 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> We are going to have to get some infield insurance, however. The Cubs seemed to sour on Ronny Cedeno-any thoughts? Behind Cristian Guzman he's the most worthless piece of s*** in the MLB. Doesn't walk, strikesout a buttload, doesn't hit for average, can't make great plays, and can't make routine plays. Did you bother to check his numbers to see how bad of a player he actually is before posting this?

QUOTE(Jenks Heat @ Jan 5, 2007 -> 09:57 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hence my stating that we would get something more on top of Guzman. If Uribe is out we are not dealing from a position of strength and every GM knows that. Having Guzman on the team hurts us. Giving up ANYTHING to get him is just like picking at a scab.

QUOTE(jasonxctf @ Jan 5, 2007 -> 05:20 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> how many times have I been shot down with it so far??? The search function is down () but I recall you supporting Steve Finley over Podsednik for 2007 and as a defensive metric you used FLD%. QUOTE(Jenks Heat @ Jan 5, 2007 -> 09:49 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Maybe Christian Guzman could be had. Throw a decent starter (Broadway/Phillips) out there and get something else decent on top of him. Assuming Guzman is trying to be a MLB player again. s***, Gilluen will demand Alex Gonzalez. Broadway for Cristian Guzman? That is absurdly stupid.
