Hope everyone that is going has fun and gets to see a White Sox winner Wish I could of made it out.

I was always a McClendon fan. He just got dealt a tough gig, especially with Pitt trading away a ton of guys and getting limited value in return (aside from the Brian Giles deal).

I saw some mention of Rooney and Anaheim where he'd be in the TV booth. Oh my god....fire Hudler now. End of my anti angel announcer rant

QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Sep 6, 2005 -> 10:59 PM) Agree with Critic. However, like the Sox, win and the fans will come out, to a degree. I know you weren't Brian, but I just want to make this point. No way can anyone, no matter how much they hate Jerry, even come close to comparing him and Wirtz. Jerry may not spend a ridiculous amount of money on the club, but he does do things for the fans and thats something you can't say about Dollar Bill.

He could still find his way to Detroit and barely miss any of the regular season thanks to that clause in his contract.

Tom, sorry to hear that. Prayers and thoughts go out to you and your family.

QUOTE(Spiff @ Sep 6, 2005 -> 01:18 AM) I was waiting from a comment from you. Your guys defense looked damn good. Can't say much about either teams offenses

Sweet, thanks a bunch

Hell of a player and an even classier individual.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Sep 5, 2005 -> 02:41 PM) Yeah, why not. Which one do you want to use? I can put your name on it if you want. http://img265.imageshack.us/img265/3453/revamp56rq.gif This one please. Also the name I use there is DABEARSDABOMB (if that doesn't fit well, you can use DBDB) Thanks a lot

Hey Kalapse Is it cool if I use that sig at the Bear forum I post at?

Color is too bright and odd for me. But thats just me. Still, as always appreciate your stuff.

Tied for 7th all time with Maggs in the record books for most doubles. Also led the southern league in runs scored and homers.

Anyway closed the forum down and moved it into the archive section of the board. We'll probably re-open it during the off-season, unless people would prefer to keep all that discussion on the main board (whichever the masses prefer we'll do). I also moved over the two active threads that were in that forum (one made by tony and than the other on Furcal).

QUOTE(Jeckle2000 @ Sep 5, 2005 -> 02:15 PM) Did anyone watch the ESPN broadcast... Those two clown announcers were listing guys that Timo had but under his wing and one of them said Damaso Marte... Doesn't Marte actually have more experience then Timo... I mean he's hardly just some kid... Timo has more major league experience. I gotta be honest, I knock Timo and I think Ozzie uses him too much (thats my major problem with Timo) but from what I do know he's very well liked in the clubhouse and has gelled with a lot of the latin players. He's also a pretty heady ballplayer, despite how I cringe every time he tries to catch the ball.

Great win and a great game by the Sox. Job well done Brandon

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2005 @ Sep 5, 2005 -> 12:49 PM) You could be right. But still, there's no way he would be left off the playoff roster. That's all i'm saying. Remember, while I gave Duque his due when he had a few nice starts a couple weeks ago I have been pretty much bashing the move since day one. I'm not a Duque fan and I don't have much faith in him when he goes out. At the same time I've long supported Contreras (well this season). He's shown me a lot and overall I've been impressed (even though he can frustrate the heck out of ya).

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Sep 5, 2005 -> 11:34 AM) Okey doke. I'll sport a Bears one if they go over .500. 8-8 or lower....you're gonna get a Colts one. Done

2 starts one way or another don't mean anything. Only thing I know is the guy has some serious skills and has the ability to turn into a front of the rotation starter.

Timo is a major contributor in the clubhouse, there is no denying that.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2005 @ Sep 5, 2005 -> 12:39 PM) The main reason they brought Duque over was for his experience in the post-season. No way in hell they would even consider leaving him off the playoff roster. Ozzie will ride the hot hand. If Duque struggles down the stretch and Brandon pitches like he has since being recalled, it will be a no doubter in my book. All that said, I don't think Duque will stink. I also don't think Duque will be making any starts, unless the match-ups favor it. Things could change though, Count could get shelled his next couple starts and Duque could be the favorite. Who knows.

QUOTE(ChiSoxyGirl @ Sep 5, 2005 -> 11:09 AM) Is it supposed to be funny? From the previews it looked serious. Oh no...but it was so awful and unrealistic it was absolutely hillarious. There were so many scenes where we were in stiches and two scenes where I was in tears laughing so hard.

QUOTE(OilCan @ Sep 5, 2005 -> 12:18 PM) Arnie Munoz....starter or reliever? Joe Borchard...trade bait or 4th outfielder for next year?? Ryan Sweeney....AAA promotion or another year at Birmingham to develop some power??? I don't think Borchard will be in the organization next year.

Transporter 2....by far the funniest movie I've seen all year. My friends and I were in tears in the theatre. Unfortunately the rest of the audience seemed to think it was a serious flick, lol. I highly recommend renting it and watching it with friends when it comes out. I can't even speak of how funny this movie is.
