Just ordered it from Best Buy online. Using $60 in gift certificates and I'm picking it up Friday. PS3 40 gig.

Can somebody (Balta?) find out the percentage comparison of freights by semi vs. trains and have historical trendlines? I would gladly sit through more train stops if it meant less semis on the road.

I knew big Pena was out by the time he was traded (the crybaby quit after declaring the Royals would win the AL Central after an embarrasing loss at Fenway) but thought he had an influence in getting the Royals to trade for him. It turns out Dayton Moore had his eye on him fo a long time while working for the Braves.

Having a s***ty leadoff hitter does not solve any problems Ozzie Guillen said all he wants is his leadoff man to get on base.

Please describe in fuller detail. Was it worse than Erstad versus Zumaya last year in Detroit?

Makes the team because of his father's connection as the head coach? Brutal defensive SS? High strikeout rate? How about an offensive line of .145/.167/.188/.355 and that's BEFORE going 0-3 (so far) tonight.

Jason Jennings fetched a nice return for the Rockies before the 2007 season. Randy Johnson to the Astros was a gold mine for the Mariners and he only had half a year left on his contract. At the time of the trade the White Sox gave up the minor league player of the year and their supposed future catcher for Freddy Garcia who only had half a year left.

Juan Uribe and Tubby Hall completely disagree.

Young had like the lowest OPS of left fielders in 2007, and his 2008 season looks worse than Anderson's 2006 season. He's extremely overrated.

Brewers' sloppy defense has allowed the Cubs to have the bases loaded with one out.

I didn't see this opinion as popular as some other Sox sites, but how terrible of a first baseman would Swisher be? Some people thought Swisher could easily surpass Konerko's numbers, but if we pushed out Konerko, his replacement would have just been a Darin Erstad with a higher ISoD.

Brooks Robinson's career numbers: .267 BA, .322 OBP, .401 SLG, 104 OPS+, 1232 Runs, 268 HR, 1357 RBI's, 2848 hits, 10654 AB's, .971 FP% I'm going ask the old farts here if they think Brooks is the greatest third baseman of all time. A second base option? *waits for fathom, cheat or Kalapse to reply*

That's why shipps got the

Which makes it sucky for the rest of us in the consumer industry. Come on, let's just tap into Alaska already.

Gut check time....Who here would be willing to take on all of Zito's contract if it meant we got Lincecum in return?

It's so memorable, you can't get it right. P.S "You're," not "your." I didn't vote, but Animal house is probably my top comedy, and American Psycho is really funny.

He was traded However the Sox ate a lot of money moving Koch. Ben Davis made a million dollars with the Knights in 2005.

Well I guess technically speaking "1" is a number. He's 0-1 in stranding runners.

Welcome to Soxtalk Bob Vandenburg!

"Malt Liquor" is beer with higher alcohol. Steel Reserve just won a gold medal in those beer tasting events.

Matt Stairs with two home runs so far tonight.

God damn Abreu kills us. He's one guy I wish Ozzie would use his Velenzuela connection on.

Exactly. If Frank got hot, which he claims he would've done, over his next couple hundred PA's the Blue Jays would have good "problem" on their hands. Instead they bench him two games out of 18, tell him to take a rest, plan to use someone who has better numbers and had better numbers than him last year, and he pouts and asks for a release.

Show some concrete proof or shut up. It's getting really old. Dick is the only one citing quotes here before and after he is put on the spot. How exactly were the Blue Jays classless in the situation, because they gave Frank what he wanted? His release?

Spaceballs sucked. I didn't jump in on the action, but did anybody list a movie that was so bad it was one of the funniest movies they ever seen? (Plan 9 from outer space?)
