I found this site while searching for places from which to buy beer. Doesn't seem too bad price-wise. Anybody use them before? http://www.liquidsolutions.biz/home/wall.asp?dept=beer

928 people have the same name as me. Wow. I am not unique at all.

I need to make a trip to Binny's and get a good selection of fall brews.

QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Sep 29, 2009 -> 09:01 AM) Much better than the Anhauser attempt at a pumpkin beer at least. Have you had Dogfish Head's Punkin Ale?

Fall has officially arrived. I picked up a 12-pack of Blue Moon Pumpkin Ale last night. Not exactly a "fine beer" but a fall standout in my opinion.

*angry yawn* Do we really have to keep talking about Vazquez and Swisher? I realize it was this lousy article that brough it up, but enough is enough. Yes, the Sox did not get anything really for Swisher. But he obvously didn't fit in, whether it be with Ozzie or the team or whatever. And as far as Vazquez, good riddance to an almost guaranteed implosion every time he took the mound. Flowers should prove to be a good acquisition in the not too distant future.

QUOTE (Tex @ Sep 18, 2009 -> 09:56 AM) That's not him??

With 6 more games against Detroit, it will most likely come down to at least the first series before it can be agreed upon that the Sox are eliminated. So, if they are not eliminated and they decide to shut down Buehrle in addition to Floyd, you'd really have to wonder the decisions by Ozzie and the gang. I can see sitting Floyd if he's hurting, but sitting Buehrle would be ridiculous.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Sep 18, 2009 -> 08:06 AM) Well I don't want to do anything until the Tigers series anyways. Just because you never know. But say we get swept by KC here or something and completely fall out of it. If they decidwe to shelve MB and Floyd they might as well do the same for Danks. Let Peavy, Hudson, Freddy, DJ and Torres finish the year out. If nothing else, it will give the Sox (and us) a chance to see these guys pitch. If next year's fifth starter's job is going to be up for grabs with Garcia, Hudson, and Torres battling it out anyway, this will be a nice preview.

Quentin needs to eat his oatmeal.

Is that Kanye West?

Absolutely bring Freddy back. He's been solid as a fifth starter and would hopefully do the same for us next year.

Man, makes me miss living in Alaska even more.

Cartoons still entertain me.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Sep 15, 2009 -> 09:27 AM) The Sox arent going to put him out there if they think he is still hurt. It has nothing to do with them being mathematically eliminated, they are just letting the guy pitch This is what I have been thinking. Not to put words in Peavy's mouth or thoughts in his head, but I would think the Sox will let him pitch if he's healthy and wants to pitch. And being a competitor, I would think he would want to pitch.

Manny cutting off that throw was funny, but also funny in a sad way. Typical Manny trying to steal the limelight. Wait, sounds a lot like Kanye West....

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 15, 2009 -> 01:37 AM) This thread served as bad luck. We've dropped another game to them in the loss column since it was started and they haven't lost since it was started. I'm still trying to figure out how one season can go down the drain on one roadtrip. I hope we have no obvious losing roadtrips like that 10 gamer next year. It was patently unfair. No team in the Central is going to win at NY and boston that time of year and making us go to Minnie added insult to injury. That road trip was BS, especially considering the time of the season. But, even though it was an unfair road trip, the Sox totally tripped over their own feet and gave away some games. It should have been a 5-5 road trip.

Seven words or less...I wasn't aware of that.

Quietly, I try to wake up.

When Pods is looking to the 3rd base coach for signs it looks like he's ready to cry. He always seems to have that emotional look on his face.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Sep 14, 2009 -> 02:50 PM) Is it just me or does Pods look like Jim from The Office? Maybe a little. If Jim were to throw a wad of chaw in his cheek it might be spot on.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Sep 14, 2009 -> 03:27 PM) In my league, we're tied 85-85. He's got Brady, I've got Gates and San Diego's Defense. Who will win? I'm somewhat in the same boat. I'm down 86-79, but I have Brady and Gates. I figure as long as Brady doesn't go down again...
