QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Nov 19, 2005 -> 10:21 AM) IS THAT IT!!?!?!?!?! Is that the one we've been waiting for. Oh gosh. Heart racing. Panting. It's not exactly what we wanted, the DVD comming out in March is only the 4 world series games. It doesn't include any of the other 8 playoff games like the Red Sox and Yankees DVDs did.

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Nov 19, 2005 -> 09:56 AM) You got that right, my man. I have never written a "fan letter" in my life, but, after having seen this week's episode, I've been compelled to write those two a letter professing their genius and my appreciation for the brilliant work they put together. This episode was SO far ahead of its time, it's not even funny...much like Beavis and Butthead in the 90s. These two write a political/societal commentary week-in-and-week-out and are able to pass it off as sophomoric dick and fart jokes out of the mouth of grade schoolers. Seriously? I really hope this humor is being appreciated for what it truly is. After an absolutely genius episode, they challenge the church to sue them at the end and then make John and Jane Smith all the credits. Are you kidding me? Just brilliant. I can't say enough about this show. The most amazing thing about Trey and Matt is a lot of the times they end up finishing the episodes on Tuesday night or Wednesday morning. That's why you usually don't see teasers for next weeks episodes because Parker and Stone still don't know WTF it's going to be about.

Saw the episode, it's one of the best they've had in a while. I'm glad they're getting the word of Scientology out there for people to see. So people can see just how truely insane this "religion" is. Tom Cruise is a pussy.

QUOTE(Wong & Owens @ Nov 18, 2005 -> 05:18 PM) Is it Matt, the son? Possibly, but it doesn't necessarily have to be a man. A few of the victims have been raped but that does not mean that it was a real penis. I really think it's Kimber. It all just fits so perfectly.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Nov 18, 2005 -> 03:48 PM) Haeger!!!! Nice!!!!! The rest are not surprises to me. Owens and Young both have a chance to prove themselves in ST That's the name that jumped out at me as well. Maybe the Sox are serious about bringing along the knuckelballer. That's so f***ing cool.

Enough with the Everett jokes, they're seriously old and not funny in the least.

I'd much rather have Pods in LF and Anderson in CF if that's what it came down to. No way in hell would I want Pods playing anywhere but LF or DH.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Nov 18, 2005 -> 12:08 PM) NSBB is killing this move. "The history of baseball, especially the past 10-15 years, is littered with marginal relievers who have had 1 or 2 good years, surrounded by several seasons of garbage. We're talking about a guy who has been less effective out of the pen than Kyle Farnsworth, who was run out of town after supposedly being too inconsistent for somebody making $1.5m. Would anybody have been willing to go 3/11 on Farnsworth? I really liked the guy and wouldn't have considered it." After the money that Eyre got, Farnsworth should be looking at even more money strickly based on his 100MPH fastball and slider. The Cubs may have set a precedent.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Nov 18, 2005 -> 12:05 PM) GROUP 3333333333333. Geoff Blum was the glue that held Group 4 together, without him Group 3 can not survive.

QUOTE(Cerbaho-WG @ Nov 18, 2005 -> 12:04 PM) Eyre is not a lefty specialist, look at his splits from last year. I liked this quote, "Scott Eyre's agent had heard from nearly every team regarding the free agent left-hander, but in the end he decided to go to the team that looked like it was having a good time." What, a good time? Um. Scott Eyre said this morning during some interview I heard somewhere that he chose the Cubs becuase of their "Winning History." I s*** you not.

You have the obvious Rowand-Pierz-Crede clique. Then you have Buehrle and Garland who are buddies. I'm pretty sure Paul Konerko and Jeff Abbott were pretty tight the 2 years they played together.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Nov 17, 2005 -> 11:03 PM) Kalapse, I'd take JD's words pretty strongly. Not saying its 100%, but if he heard it, it is its from someone he knows pretty well whose tied into baseball. He's definately one of the people I'd consider a Soxtalk source. You really have to stop replying to posts before you read the clearification later in the thread.

QUOTE(3E8 @ Nov 17, 2005 -> 09:17 PM) And I appreciate it very much. I remember last year when you let us in on the details about Lee for Pods before it happened. Didn't he post the Raffy Palmeiro steroid thing too? I'm not doubting that the Marlins have a lot of interest in these players I just don't think they've made this wishes public.

QUOTE(JDsDirtySox @ Nov 17, 2005 -> 09:06 PM) Tampering? GM Meetings just took place. A lot of things were talked about... this was one of them. So you could show me a source that says Larry Beinfest or anyone with the Marlins for that matter have mentioned Rowand, Contreras and Marte by name?

QUOTE(JDsDirtySox @ Nov 17, 2005 -> 08:55 PM) Florida has made it clear that they have interest in three players on our Major League Roster... Marte, Contreras, and Rowand. A trade of adding Rowand allows the Marlins to have a cheaper/new alternative to Pierre in center. Pierre will be dealt, if not during the offseason... before the trade deadline. The Marlins are supposedly trying to cut their payroll in half (YIKES). If I had to bet on one player getting traded this offseason, it would be Damaso Marte (but we would need to add another lefty first). If that doesn't happen, I see Rowand as next in line to be dealt. Hard to do that without tampering.

I would appreciate it if people would not unnecessarily freak me out over s*** like this. Anyway, I'm glad it was only a one day thing with those football pics and now it's back to big pics. Even if they are f***ed up.

It was a dumb mistake but how was that a disgrace? Overreact much?

QUOTE(KevHead0881 @ Nov 16, 2005 -> 05:53 PM) ...and your namesake for about a week. That was a horrible week.

$$$

Why did you use none on/none out? Is it becuase he's batting .271 with the bases empty? You really have to take all stats into consideration when making a case like this.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Nov 14, 2005 -> 07:51 PM) This really sucks. I'm just glad my ass saved 5 billion pics during this year from Spring Training until the Parade. ditto, I have well over 1 GB worth of pics from the '05 Sox season that will never be deleted. The only question is, now what? I've grown accostumed to having large pics for every sport and now that has been taken away. The AP started slipping near the end with all the lines and distortion on a lot of the pics but now I get no pics at all.

QUOTE(redandwhite @ Nov 14, 2005 -> 06:46 PM) it would make me laugh if Hendry gave up Pie and more for Juan Pierre. Hendry doesn't give up talent, he'll end up fleecing the Marlins for Pierre, it's what he does.

Now what will I do?

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Nov 14, 2005 -> 05:23 PM) I think it's the Dominican Republic. You're right.
