Need a job? Hey Scott, Proctor and gamble is hiring!

(Wasn't sure which forum to place this in. It's an off the wall topic, but yet it's still baseball related. If it needs to be moved to The SLAM, please do so) Anyway, couldn't sleep worth a "dink" tonight, so I thought that since I was up and reading threads, that I would start one that was similar to one I did a few years ago. The idea is to take any baseball players name (past or present) and fit it into a sentence or quote to "punnerize" it (if there is such a word!!!) Since the last one was a few years ago, a lot have players have come and gone, and a lot more Soxtalk mermbers came on board, so let's see where we go with this. Here's a few to get started. I don't think that Jorge can do that! Oh yes! Jorge Cantu!!! Does he drink beer, or does Harmon Killebrew? If Roy Rogers wife is soaking wet, and Don Johnson towels her down, is that the same thing as saying that Don Drysdale? If he wants to slide down the staircase railing that's fine, after all it is Floyd's Bannister! There, you get the point! Yeah...it's pretty corny, but it makes your mind think in a "warped" fashion! Let's DIG for some REALLY clever ones. And Oh....no cheating by going back to the old version of this thread for ideas!!!

Yeah...and I'll join you someday. At the rate that I am going since I became a member, I estimate the timeframe to be about Jan. 2012.

QUOTE (Rooftop Shots @ Mar 8, 2011 -> 07:30 AM) Well.........they are not exactly White Sox related pictures, but at least the message gets across in a unique way in order to still fit within the confines of the thread.. Uh.....it would help if I learned how to count, (Sholud have been "3" days!)

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Mar 7, 2011 -> 09:57 PM) Hey now I'm the one who suggested using Sox players numbers though I crapped out once we got to about 4 . Somehow my pictures files became paint instead of .jpg . Still haven't got it back right. AHHHHHHH, Yes! That is right! you are correct sir! At first the thread was just about putting up "ANY" numbers that related to the countdown, and your suggestion about the challenge of putting up uniform numbers was indeed an Excellent one. Nice call!

Pancakes! When I eat breakfast, I want REAL Breakfast. To me, pancakes are nothing but a ton of dough and a lot of sweetener on top. May as well get a few oversized doughnuts. It's basically the same friggin' thing!

The movie "Christmas Story" Only because when I saw it at the show, the theater was packed, and there was this REAL Obnoxious lady in front of me with a TALL GRAY bee-hive hair doo, right in front of me CONSTANTLY moving side to side as she wouldn't "Shut Up" with her date! She also had this laugh that would make you cringe so bad, you felt like your jugular vain was going to get ripped out of your throat! Man, that was a horrible experience.

QUOTE (MattZakrowski @ Feb 28, 2011 -> 09:17 PM) Adam Sandler. I'll second that about 40 times over.........and then some!.....and then some more on top of that! That guy just sickens the daylights out of me. I'm sure I'll hear about this one, but Conan O'Brien is pretty high up on my list as well.

Going to miss this thread. Probably the most that I have ever posted on any thread since I joined 7 years ago. Who knows?.....Maybe someday I'll finally make it to post #1000. Thanks Knightni. It was fun doing the digging for some classic Sox photos these last couple of weeks!

Thanks Guys! Always look forward to my birthday. That means the following day is SPRING TRAINING! Yeah.....Baby!

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Feb 27, 2011 -> 03:55 PM) How quickly the tables have turned! Now YOU need to figure this one out! Could it be Juan or (One) or as some broken english people say (Wan?) Uribe??????

QUOTE (knightni @ Feb 27, 2011 -> 03:38 PM) He only wore it for one game. It was tougher than I expected it to be. Man, I thought that I was pretty good at getting some tough pictures during the course of this thread, (especially some of the older players) but man I gotta say, Knightni..................You OWN this thread, You got some stuff that I wore out my browser button on in searching and came up dry. Pods "Showing" a #1 on his uniform was one of them. In the battle of tough White Sox pictures showing uniform numbers, I just tossed out the white flag! I concede. I have "one more" toughy for you. Tomorrow, I have 2 pictures to post, but one that I cannot find is a Marv Foley with a number "0". If I'm not mistaken, I think it was 1979. Have fun with that one!!!!

Ah Ha! A Direct Steal!!!! I learned this one from your Duane Josephson uniform posting a while back!

Al Lopez at the bottom right of the cards, The other 2 guys are not part of the equation. They were part of the photo and I just didn't crop them out.

QUOTE (knightni @ Feb 26, 2011 -> 04:15 AM) Very impressive once again sir! I figured that I'd give you first crack at it today! I figured that the other 4 that you posted were ones that I also had in waiting, But................I still have a couple hidden agendas up my sleeve in the next 2 posts!
