Kalapse

I am switching my sig back to my Rowand: Future Gold Glover in support of Aaron Rowand.

Remember Pods and Alex Sanchez have the same body type. Just because a player doesn't hit a s*** load of home runs doesn't mean they're not juicing. I think at this point in time if you're going to speculate about Row then you have to speculate about the other 11 evenly as well.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 08:12 PM) f***ing if ARow gets caught juicing that will taint this WS so bad Pods or Dye would be worse.

Funny how both major rumors to come out have included Johnny Damon's name.

QUOTE(sayitaintso @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 07:31 PM) Has anyone heard the Go Go White Sox song by Tadahito and the Iguchis. (i think thats the bands name) They do the song in a japanese accent i think. My friend from school told me about it but i haven't heard it. It's just a fast pace updated version of "Let's Go Go Go White Sox". I personally think it sucks.

I got my World Series side patch Sox hat a few days ago, i got an Official World Champs hat this morning along with my World Champs T-shirt with the World Series Trophy in the background as well.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 06:45 PM) I know Felix is a stud but that sig is still an embarrassment. Just to let you know. The sight of Felix Pie in every thread is beginning to upset me.

If you're going to make a Sox Soundtrack then maybe you can read one of the 30 other threads with the same subject matter.

QUOTE(fathom @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 05:52 PM) The question I'm still waiting to be answered would be: What's the rule about players being allowed to advance if Uribe would have ended up completely in the crowd? I can't recall if it's one or two bases. I remember Carlos Pena having that happen to him a few years ago vs the Sox. I'd say 1 base, giving a baserunner 2 bases in that situation just seems excessive.

QUOTE(Steve9347 @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 05:49 PM) nothing you can do. there is absolutely NOTHING that could upset me right now. except maybe having my member removed. other than that... NOTHING!! the white sox are world champions. how friggin' sweet! You smell funny and you're not very intelligent. Now how do you feel?

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 05:56 PM) Duh. How are you passing any of your classes?

Mine is way better, the Unicorn kicks your ass.

You are very welcome.

QUOTE(3E8 @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 02:37 PM) I made an Excel spreadsheet for '06 player salaries. The ones I'm sure of I have entered already. I took some liberties assuming that Frank and Everett's contracts would be bought out. You can easily change that. As players get signed you can enter their salary and it will automatically total the '06 roster salary at the bottom. You can also enter guesses for salaries just to see where we might end up. File at the following link: http://www.keepmyfile.com/download/f32eff134364 I love you. I never had the patience for Excel, I usually just end up doing all the math in my head and it tends to stick, this should help.

QUOTE(bighurt2719 @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 02:25 PM) who cares? i think we should bring up bartman at every opportunity possible so that we can rub our world series in cub fans' faces! Personally I don't give a s*** about Bartman but hey some people have hangups. I could care less about Cubs fans, I'm enjoying the Sox right now.

mlb.com has a deal where you can download every game of the world series for $4 (american) each.

QUOTE(Wedge @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 02:21 PM) The only info I found on AJ said a 1-year contract. Isn't he too old for arbitration? EDIT: He is a 7th year player and I think arbitration only applies to the first 6 years in MLB and only with your original club. AJ is eligible for his 3rd year of arbitration this offseason. I'm positive that he's protected.

QUOTE(easyw @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 02:20 PM) Arbitration.. right, got it.. just too lazy TO TYPE IT IN LARGE ANNOYING BIG BOLD LETTERS! the point being, who is NOT under contract.. who will be back, and who won't. I knew about Thomas... no way they'll exercise his option. AJ's option - player or club? AJ does not have an option, his contract is up but he is arbitration eligible so he'll be on the team next year for sure. I'm thinking 2 of Konerko, Thomas and Everett will not be back next year. Konerko: Contract is up Everett: $5M team option, $500K buyout Thomas: $10M player, $12M Team, $3.5M buyout.

Actually Uribe's play was more similar to Derek Jeter and David Wright's plays from the past 2 years. The Bartman play really doesn't compare, they were under totally different circumstances.

QUOTE(bighurt2719 @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 02:00 PM) race stopped being an issue for me and for many others (i think) a long time ago. when jackie robinson played, it was very important then that he was the first black player (he technically wasnt) in the MLB. today, all different kinds of folks are everywhere, doing all sorts of things for the first time. big whoop. so, when i say "who cares," it's not because im racist or insensitive. who cares? Mainly because there's still a problem with getting minorities into coaching positions (mainly in the NFL), at GM and probably most of all as owners. The big 3 sports (NFL, MLB, NBA) might have a majority of players being minorities but these sports still don't have many minorities at the higher positions. This is a big deal.

I have a sneaky feeling I'm going to have to add a certain line of text to my sig for the offseason, it seemed to do the trick earlier this year. Joe Crede, AJ Pierzynski and Jon Garland are NOT Free Agents this offseason. It's called ARBITRATION people, look it up.

Just to add onto what has been stated already. . . Brooks said that he had just got out of a meeting where they figured out all the particulars for tomorrow's parade with the city. He said that everything has been worked out but that he could only speak in broad terms because the City is going to put out statement with all the particulars. So everything is set, we're just waiting for the city to tell us all the details.
