Name your Surprise Move
I don't believe Fields will be making the team out of ST. Ozzie won't let him sit on the bench when he can just as well get at bats down in Charlotte. Same with Sweeney and Owens. Wait for Erstad to get hurt for the first time, then one of them will come up. Mack/Ozuna will be backups just like last year. BA and or Erstad will go to the bench when Pods is healthy. As for my surprise move, Floyd will not make the #5 slot. It will go to....Danks. With Floyd going to AAA and Haeger winning the long relief role. JMO

Peter may not die. But I didn't see that coming for the other guy (don't want to play spoiler). It must hurt being pinned to the ceiling until April.

Sox Lockup Vazquez to Contract Ext.
should've used that money for Mark. I know that he had already turned down an offer last year. Hopefully, there's incentives in there for Javy getting to the 7th inning.

5th Starter Race
Still can't believe Broadway is in the race. I have a feeling he's going to need a little more seasoning in the minors.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Feb 25, 2007 -> 02:30 PM) OK, just sitting around and watching anything on tv to pass the time. And now I'm wondering, how the hell did The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen get made? You could ask that question about a lot of movies.

Tenative Knights Roster?
I can't believe Kris Honel is still around. That guy was a prospect along time ago wasn't he? Also, whatever happened to Jason Stumm?

Favorite Boardgame
Big fan of Sorry!, Connect Four, UpWords, Uno, Perfection and Life when I was growing up. Also loved Scattegories. These days don't play board games for too much but when we do, it's usually Cranium.

QUOTE(Soxy @ Feb 23, 2007 -> 12:47 PM) I saw Half Nelson last night. It was a very Indie movie and definitely had that Indie vibe to it. The movie was uneven, I thought. The acting was good, Ryan Nelson deserved that Oscar nomination, and I thought the girl that played Drey was also really good. The major problem I had with the film was that it just couldn't keep my attention. I felt like the acting was too good for the direction they received and the way the film was cut and, basically, the way the story was told. The movie was also a lot funnier than I expected (more funny in a Welcome to the Dollhouse way, than anything else). Not a bad rental movie, but I'm glad I didn't pay full movie price for it. I agree. Great acting by Ryan Gosling. But I couldn't pay attention as well during it.

F*** that damn Groundhog!!! At least it's happening on a weekend and not during the week where we have to deal with it during rush hour.

OFFICIAL 24 RETURNS THREAD
Just wait till Jack finds out "Blue Tooth Man" was pulling on the strings of the former President last season. Oh boy. This season is going to be a doozy. Also, I'm still not convinced that Assad is as good as he says he is.

Jack also has the best cell phone service. He can go through tunnels, on airplanes, underground, etc. and still have great communication with Chloe.
