It needs to be stated: One catch doesn’t make Dewayne Wise a good baseball player, it makes him a very important part of White Sox history, but it does not make him a good baseball player. I still find it funny that people hate/don't like him. I mean he is what he is. If there's someone you don't like, don't like the front office/management that gives him a 25 man spot/trouts him out there. Wise is a good minor league player. Most organizations wouldn't even have a Wise up here.

QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ Jul 26, 2009 -> 11:44 PM) I'm ashamed that I forgot this...hell, you could use just about anything from Illmatic & have it be in this thread. Good point bro. Hell I was sad to actually see some of these so called hip hop artist people had on this thread (though some jokingly) with people like Nas, Run-D.M.C., KRS-One, Public Enemy, Eric B. & Rakim, N.W.A, LL Cool J, Grandmaster Flash, Outkast, A Tribe Called Quest, The Beastie Boys, Big Daddy Kane, Wu Tang Clan, Slick Rick, Kool G Rap, The Roots, Kurtis Blow, Common, Too Short, Naughty By Nature, Mos Def etc.. etc.. barely or not even mentioned.

How in the f*** did I forget this legendary song?! I Win. Nas- It ain't hard to tell. (BTW some of you people have horrid taste in hip-hop lyrics.. no offense) Poetic, strong, free for the mind/body It ain't hard to tell, I excel, then prevail The mic is contacted, I attract clientele My mic check is life or death, breathin a sniper's breath I exhale the yellow smoke of buddha through righteous steps Deep like The Shinin', sparkle like a diamond Sneak a uzi on the island in my army jacket linin Hit the Earth like a comet, invasion Nas is like the Afrocentric Asian, half-man, half-amazin Cause in my physical, I can express through song Delete stress like Motrin, then extend strong I drank Moet with Medusa, give her shotguns in hell From the spliff that I lift and inhale, it ain't hard to tell The buddha monk's in your trunk, turn the bass up Not stories by Aesop, place your loot up, parties I shoot up Nas, I analyze, drop a jew-el, inhale from the L School a fool well, you feel it like braille It ain't hard to tell, I kick a skill like Shaquille holds a pill Vocabulary spills I'm Ill plus Matic, I freak beats slam it like Iron Shiek Jam like a tech with correct techniques So analyze me, surprise me, but can't magmatize me Scannin while you're plannin ways to sabotage me I leave em froze like her-on in your nose Nas'll rock well, it ain't hard to tell This rhythmatic explosion, is what your frame of mind has chosen I'll leave your brain stimulated, n****z is frozen Speak with criminal slang, begin like a violin End like Leviathan, it's deep well let me try again Wisdom be leakin out my grapefruit troop I dominate break loops, givin mics men-e-straul cycles Street's disciple, I rock beats that's mega trifle And groovy but smoother than moves by Villanova You're still a soldier, I'm like Sly Stone in Cobra Packin like a rasta in the weed spot Vocals'll squeeze glocks, MC's eavesdrop Though they need not to sneak My poetry's deep, I never fell Nas's raps should be locked in a cell It ain't hard to tell "One Mic" is also gold from Nas.

LOL! We got some nice ones on here for some of our character posters. Won't post the whole lyrics like some here, but.... Let's all bring it in for Wally, Eazy sees uncle Charlie Little Boo, God's got him and I'm gonna miss everybody I only roll with Bone my gang look to where they lay When playing with destiny, play too deep for me to say Lil' Layzie came to me, told me if he should decease well then please Bury me by my grand-grand and when you can, come follow me God bless you, working on a plan to heaven Follow the Lord all 24/7 days, God is who we praise Even though the devil's all up in my face But he keeping me safe and in my place, say grace For the case to race with a chance to face the judge And I guess my soul won't budge Grudge because there's no mercy for thugs Oh, what can I do it's all about our family and how we roll Can I get a witness? Let it unfold We living our lives to eternal our soul If anyone (I mean hip-hop fans) don't know who this is, especially considering they are my favorite rap group of all time, and half their god damn names are on the lyrics, I will drive to whatever city/state you live in, and punch you in the face.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 26, 2009 -> 05:30 PM) Gulp...if the value is good, I'd consider trading Quentin. You know I've been down with that for a while.

2 games out. We REALLY needed to salvage this one.

QUOTE (Jimbo's Drinker @ Jul 26, 2009 -> 09:41 PM) you mean ozzie, and the ghost of divison champs past. Him too, but the posters on here as well. I'll say f*** all the Josh Fields haters too cause I also love him alot.

f*** all the Clayton Richard haters. That is all.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jul 26, 2009 -> 12:36 AM) This is too easy. b****es Can't Hang With The Streets She Found Herself Short Now She's Takin' Me To Court That's Some Real Conversation For Your Ass And for the most melodramatic moment in rap history Move Up The Block As We Groove Down The Block See My Girl's House, Dre, Pass The Glock Kick In The Door, I Look On The Floor It's My Little Cousin Daz And He's f***in' My Hoe I Uncocked My s***... I'm Heart-broke But I'm Still Locked Man, f*** That b****! Not bad though I'd prefer... Perhaps I was addicted to tha dark side Some where inside my childhood witnessed my heart die And even though we both came from the same places The money and the fame made us all change places How could it be through the misery That can't get past the hard times Made a true friend afraid to ask, for currency But you could run to me when you need me, I'll never leave I just needed someone to believe in, as you can see It's a small thang through and true What could I do? Real homies help ya get through, And coming new, he'd do tha same thang if he could Cuz in the hood true homies make you feel good And happy times we be acting up call tha cops Bringing the cease to tha peace that was on my block It never stop, when my mama ask me will I change I tell her yeah, but it's clear I'll always be tha same Until The End of Time

Makes sense for all three teams and I applaud the Rays in that division, on going for it again with Cliff Lee. Kazmir has had a nightmare season, though he is still young but is very wild. I love the deal for the Mariners of course, with Brignac mostly and Kaz for the future and I understand the move for the Indians as far as pure potential with Clement who I still like, and Morrow and that arm of his.

QUOTE (CSF @ Jul 25, 2009 -> 11:34 PM) Looks like Thompson's about to be in the fold. From the LA Times: Yea expected it as much from my cuz giving me the info. I actually thought they would wait another week before announcing it, so I'm glad it's happening very quickly. Hopefully we can get this young man some at bats/experience in the minors soon.

It's nice to see Santos Rodriguez doing well in Bristol. Alot of people feel he'll be the wildcard in that Vazquez deal.

The Josh Fields hate on this board is sickening sometimes. Jesus. Part of me feels bad cause I love Fields, and still love the man's potential in the bigs. They've changed his swing since college, but I still think it was for the better, and he has shown flashes this year, especially in spring training. I still believe his future is bright, just a matter of if it's here or not.

Alright i'll continue to watch the game. I'm outs b****es.

QUOTE (ChiSox420* @ Jul 25, 2009 -> 06:09 PM) This was NOT on Jenks!!! A good LF makes the first catch... he gets a shattered bat single... and then makes one bad pitch on a bad pitch selection. Lets get um in the 10th and put Jenks back in for the save! I agree. Jenks threw very well today. Had some ball luck and a borderline bad pitch selection. I don't think he should be left off the hook now as he did blow a save, and that fastball shoulda been high on Granderson since Curtis likes the high fastballs.

Jenks was bringing it a 97 on Granderson.. just was a bad pitch. I can understand AJ's thinking though. I'm sure he thought Granderson was looking for a curveball so he tried to fool him. He guessed wrong. I don't think Coop shoulda got Bobby thinking like a true pitcher personally. I've said that for two years now.

Extra innings... at least.

Polanco up... he's even more dangerous.

Granderson... wow.

Pods is not the same basestealer in 05 Ozzie!!!

I love Mark Grace. Finally Jenks gets the strike... 4.

Jenks in for the 4 out save.
