well despite it looking retarded I went with my friends and actually enjoyed it lol..... it was stupid but it was funny and some parts made me totally jump. Also Ive never seen the audience make so much noise during a movie.

Why are you trying to argue with me whether we should trade him or not ive already said im for it.. but not just for a corner OF with little pop.

I remember being so excited about him after the year he had in Kanny 2

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Aug 19, 2006 -> 02:39 AM) And you still haven't said why Garcia is worth more than Crisp, other than that he's a "big game" (hah) and "battle tested" pitcher. Why? Because Garcia always has good seasons and than s*** seasons...Right now he is having his s*** season so keeping to his pattern plus the fact it will be a contract year.. Im pretty sure next season we will see the missing 2-3 mph on Freddy's fastball.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 18, 2006 -> 10:45 PM) Timely hitting and timely pitching win playoff games. mostly pitching is what has led to post-season success...

QUOTE(LowerCaseRepublican @ Aug 18, 2006 -> 02:21 AM) It's a cult film with a title that will either enthrall you with entertainment value or not. There's no middle ground about the film. Not everybody likes Army of Darkness or other cult films like that. It's a niche film and I think it is going to do very well for a niche film. Im not a diehard fan of Army of Darkness but it was a movie I could still enjoy sort of. As in I didnt neccesarily love but I didnt hate it and it didnt look just flat out retarded like Snakes on a PLane lol.....The only way that movie would be mildly interesting if you were mad drunk.

Im not saying Id really be against the trade.. Im saying Freddy Garcia is worth Crisp and more so. While maybe Hansen is a bit much id still expect another piece in return.

QUOTE(SoxFan562004 @ Aug 18, 2006 -> 05:13 PM) IMO it's the managers. That's not a critique at all, I think both managers are very good managers, it's just their personality rubbing off on their club. I think Buck Showalter is a crap manager... and I have a Rangers friend who doesnt think the Rangers will ever get to the playoffs and actually win until Buck retires or is fired.

How so? A struggling SP but is battle tested and has proven himself in the playoffs >>> a corner outfielder w/ no pop and has only had 1-2 seasons of success and has failed in the spotlight... even w/ the difference in contracts Garcia >> Crisp.

I have a lot of friends that actually want to see this crap.... and I just dont know whats wrong w/ the world now....

Not 2 mention right now the Saints already have their version of Lendale White(Deuce McAllister) so he wont have to take the full load anyways.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Aug 17, 2006 -> 07:30 PM) An unnamed source from the Score? Yeah, I'll sure bank that one... More likely the source is you and he meant from the soxtalk organization.

We could bring back James Baldwin

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Aug 17, 2006 -> 12:22 AM) Vazquez pitching in the postseason will be a guaranteed loss. Forget how bad he pitches now when he has a meltdown. What he does in the postseason will dwarf that. Well thats why he would be the game 4 starter and wouldnt pitch probably in a 5 game series. Also we could always have him go 5 only in the playoffs and than we have 2 long men in the pen in B-Mac and Garcia.

I wouldnt even want Freddy Pitching. Game 1: Jose Contreras Game 2: Mark Buehrle Game 3: Jon Garland Game 4: Contreras/Vazquez depending on situtation Game 5: Contreras/Buehrle

QUOTE(YASNY @ Aug 15, 2006 -> 08:33 AM) Male dominated. That's like calling Lake Michigan moist. They treat their women like dogs. Here we have billions being discriminated against because of gender, yet who are we to judge? Ive been to the middle east multiple times... and yes there are some incidents especially in the poorer places where the women are treated like crap but you way over-exagerate. And most of the time the woman accept and embrace the way they are treated...Its an entire different culture.. you cant judge it on our values.

I think his ceiling is a middle reliever... having that great pickoff move is going to help him a ton as well.

Yeah unless Whisler blows up in his next few starts to end the season I think him and Broadway will both be in AAA. It will be nice to finally have some SP prospects in AAA that actually might have a future on the team.(Not counting B-Mac since he was up/down the entire season last year)

Cotts has certainly not been the same as he was last season but some of you make it seem like he is politte out there. His era is a little deceptive but its no where as much as Marte's was last season. It should be high 3's low 4's probably with how he pitched while Marte's should of been around 6-7.

QUOTE(whitesox61382 @ Aug 15, 2006 -> 04:06 PM) I am not a greedy man. All I want out of my back up catcher is good defense and a .250+ BA. I think he would be a perfect option next year. Relatively young, cheap, right handed, good defensively, ok bat, puts the ball into play, ect. The Sox haven't had that in a back up catcher for a while. It would be nice to have a catcher that can actually throw out a runner every now and again. Chris Widger was poor in all aspects of his game besides the cool sunglasses. With Stewart you get the good defense/arm plus his batting avg. should at least be respectable. Thats all you can ask for in the backup catcher of the team.

This is the first year Beane can take any credit.... all those other playoff teams were thanks to having 3 aces on your pitching staff he never drafted.

QUOTE(BFirebird @ Aug 15, 2006 -> 07:11 AM) Or just a case of Boston really not playing well. They have looked flat of late and other than Ortiz and ManRam..no one else has done much. Sox should kick the crap out of Hernandez. I also will be there with about 800 of my closest friends...Evans Scholars in the house tonight. You forgot Mike Lowell.... Im actually really hoping Boston can win their division because id much rather face them than the Yanks.

Personally though if i had to take a choice of young OF's in mlb id take Nick Markakis over Brian. I just love watching that kid play.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Aug 15, 2006 -> 03:23 AM) Why? Hernandez isnt all that bad.. he has some decent stuff and all. And compared to the other Royal SP's.... I just noticed his era... he seemed so promising a couple seasons ago lol

QUOTE(blazewc77 @ Aug 15, 2006 -> 02:02 AM) Maggs would not have gotten the rbi last year in game 4 of the WS against Houston, he is not a clutch hitter. I would rather have Scott Bora's other player...........................JOE CREDE. Id take Magglio pre-injury and with a haircut over Dye but thats about it.
