Our "puppy" is a blue heeler/Akita mix. He's 6 months old now and smart as hell. He's too smart for his own good. But overall he's a very very good puppy. Doesn't bark, doesn't bite too much, listens well, etc.

QUOTE(56789 @ Jun 10, 2005 -> 04:48 AM) I just found a perfect example to the comment on how admins and moderaters are treated better than other posters. In the NHL Salary Cap thread people would say something bad about the NHL and everyone would say "If you dont like the NHL stay out of an NHL thread" well then aboz comes in and says "the nhl :sleep :sleep :sleep " and no one says a word to him. That would because I didn't read it. I'd a taken his ass on. Seriously, have had very limited access the last two days and I didn't see it. My stance is pretty well known on that topic. For people to just go in and start throwing s*** around about "I hate it and you should too" type of stuff in ANY topic is horses***. If it doesn't interest you and you don't want it to escalate, use common sense and just let it go. If I jumped in every thread I wanted to say was :sleep , I would have more posts then southsider. I just simply don't comment. That's common sense. BTW, hey Aboz, stay outta my NHL thread.

Guys and gals, this is a GREAT thread. There's some things that have needed aired out and I think everyone handled this in a very good way. We know we make mistakes, but we try to do what's best for every one of you. We try as best as we can to look at the big picture on this site. Thanks to everyone for their input. Kap

QUOTE(Pauly8509CWS @ Jun 9, 2005 -> 04:54 AM) Nuke, you must have been some Hawks fan... mentioning that the "final straw" was when they let Amonte go. Amonte SUCKED in the playoffs in his contract year. He had a chance to prove himself and could not do it. People talk about wanting winners and guys who can come through when it counts. TA COULDNT. I was at the playoff games against the Blues and he had plenty of opportunities to score goals. Set up by "that pussy" Zhamnov, who is a very talented player. Although I didnt agree with the Roenick deal, Zhamnov isnt as bad as you Hawk "fans" think. Basically, if letting TA go was a big hit to being a fan, then you really werent a fan at all. Because you would have known that Amonte was offered what he was worth and rejected so then he basically became a 3rd liner in Philly. If watching "superstars" like Steve Maltais, who flirted with NHL teams before they realized that he was a GAY (goal a year) player, then by all means go support the Wolves. Big difference between Maltais and, say, Zhamnov. Not even in the same league. The Blackhawks problem is management, not the players.

QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 10:30 PM) I don't give a damn about hockey and I'll excersize my God given right by posting it here, whether you guys like it or not. I mean it allowed 14 extra CBB games to be picked up by ESPN this year. 14 EXTRA! It's your "God Given" right? REALLY? If I were an asshole, I'd tell you that it's not, it's the people who provide you this place to let you post it, but I'm not an asshole. Carry on.

I know you all are entitled to your opinions, but damn, if you hate it that bad, don't post.

Sooo, anyone know a way to capture java?

I can tell you that a salary cap for the NHL has been agreed upon (IN PRINCIPLE - gotta leave myself wiggle room)... it really looks like hockey will be back this fall now. You will see it start hitting the press in about an hour or two.

QUOTE(aboz56 @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 03:44 PM) Friendly reminder to all: We are using this tailgate, as Steff is paying for our airfare, tickets and all other expenses, to oust Vince as an admin here at Soxtalk. Sorry, I just had to. It was just so there for the taking. Thanks again, Steff.... ZIIIIIINNNG! Paranoia is a great thing.

damn... java... I want to save the stream of where nick got drafted.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 02:15 PM) Its never televised, so check around mlb.com and they probably have an archived version of day 1 somewhere. soooo. someone with some time do that? I'd REALLY appreciate it.

I think that you get position players via other means. When a trade comes up, most of the time teams are looking for pitchers. We just stocked our system to make later moves if necessary. That's how I look at it.

You need a Fire Ant Reaction Team (F.A.R.T.) to drop a big bomb on them. (I know, they're not fire ants like they are around here... but hey...)

Does anyone have this on TIVO or tape? I REALLY need a copy of this somehow, some way.

Look, GWB, contrary to "stupid people's opinions", is a pretty smart guy. So is Kerry. Kerry is a gifted speaker, Bush is not. It doesn't make him stupid. Texsox said it. The most qualified candidates will not run because every single *PRIVATE* mistake a person has ever made in life will be cast out of the closet and out there for everyone to see, and frankly it's bull s***.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2005 @ Jun 7, 2005 -> 08:07 PM) Alright. I'll try and be positive. I admit, I don't know much of anything about this guy. Didn't even think he was anywhere on the Sox radar before today. But his stat-line is impressive. And I see those last 3 starts he had were against very good college competition. Last three starts = one good week. Big fat hairy deal. Granted, he's pretty good, but I don't think he's that good.

Broadway has been pitching his arse off lately. But I certainly agree there was better talent available with this pick. I'm pretty disappointed with this. They should have done a lot better then this.

I just saw it... #94. The Indians. And who did I say had an interest, eh? I knew it.

Keyboard, screen, whatever inanimate objects are nearby...

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 7, 2005 -> 01:04 PM) Wins too. LMAO Ain't that the truth. Hell, we use the damn hubble telescope for every damn play around here.

UH OH! :uhoh ChiSoxy'll be drooling all over her screen when she finds this thread.

Good call, Juggs! I've been trying to say that too intermixed in game threads and what not, I just have not put it as well as you did.

LMAO That is just too funny. But you know, Kerry is the smartest person to ever run for President, just ask him.

Is this the wrong time to mention that I'm writing a symphony based on this trial? It's called Michael Jackson in A Minor.

QUOTE(Palehosefan @ Jun 7, 2005 -> 05:24 AM) Don't be so sure its not the truth, those Canadians can get frisky when they get to the heat in Texas. I've personally had to turn down 3 Canuck girls and a frisky snowman. : Is that how that works? Those Canadian chicks get so hot down here that they have to... umm, nevermind...
