QUOTE(knightni @ Sep 13, 2005 -> 09:28 PM) This site is a LOT looser than any other Sox messageboard you will find. Where does that comment have merit? Not to mention the fact that Soxtalk has been gaining members like crazy of late simply because people are getting banned from WSI because of how anal they are.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Sep 13, 2005 -> 09:03 PM) $250,000! 5 years being someones b****!?!?! What type of prison do you think you go to? If you're convicted of illegal use of copyrighted material you're not sent to a maximum security prison. You do know there's different kinds of prisons right? Not just Oz.

QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Sep 13, 2005 -> 06:36 PM) Saw it comin from a mile away. Congrats, you're cool.

QUOTE(Punch and Judy Garland @ Sep 13, 2005 -> 04:21 PM) They do a pretty good job of picks after round one though, I'll give them that. Charles Tillman and Briggs are two big examples of that. Hopefully out of Wade, Gage and Berrian they get one of those guys to be a number two receiver in this league I bet not 1 person here liked the Tillman pick. He took some guy noone had ever heard of from some little college (LA Laffayette) and everyone was pissed. I heard an interview with Tillman the night of the draft and liked him from then on but when the pick was made I was pretty confused.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Sep 13, 2005 -> 06:28 PM) Your #8 hitter in September... .486/.538/1.114 That SLG% is f***ing sick. No doubt he should be near the top of the order.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Sep 13, 2005 -> 06:26 PM) Better Question: Where's the hits for this guy? 0-18 in the last 6 games He hasn't had a hit since his daughter was born... Though he went 0-3 the day before, he's 0-15 since his wife gave birth, don't new dads usually get hot right afterwards? Kinda like Mackowiack and his 2 HRs vs the Cubs.

QUOTE(knightni @ Sep 13, 2005 -> 05:45 PM) Interesting bump. Pointless Bump.

Jas will like this thread.

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Sep 13, 2005 -> 05:48 PM) Carl in the lineup? :puke don't get mad -- I'm constantly eating crow when it comes to my assessment of the Sox, so hopefully Carl proves me wrong. here's a bigger question: Who's going to step up and put this team on his shoulders? Someone needs to get f'n hot and pick this team up. PK is showing signs of doing just that. Carl...why not you? Jermaine? Timo? Konerko's September thus far: 36 ABs .389/.477/.889 5 HR 8 RBI

QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Sep 13, 2005 -> 04:23 PM) Jeez, we have been getting a ton of WSI cast-offs as of late. Welcome. Also, I'd stay away from attendance threads here as well. Although I doubt the mods will ban you or anything, other members tend to look down on it for some stupid reason. Maybe it has something to do with beating a dead horse? Oh Yeah, it's so much fun constantly b****ing about attendance and yet the people who b**** don't even go to the games. But no, I understand discussing attendance every damn day is awesome.

When the Bears traded down in '03 I desperatly wanted a dynamic, hard hitting, lightning fast SS from USC by the name of Troy Polamalu. This isn't hindsight being 20/20 seeing how I wanted him then but now that he's been to the pro bowl and Mike Green has been benched, he would look so f***ing good in a Bears uni.

If Mike North takes over color duties on the radio I'll... still listen to the radio broadcasts when I can't see the games on TV. Just because I don't like the color man doesn't mean I'm going to stop listening to the Sox. Mike North would be a bad choice IMO however it will not change how often I listen to the Sox on the radio, seeing how the only time I'm listening to the radio is when I can't get to a TV.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Sep 13, 2005 -> 12:10 AM) because he seemed very honest and sorry about it. He said it took about 2 or 3 years off of his career and that they need to teach kids the dangers of this stuff. He really did seem sincere and i think Kenny brought him in to teach that message. KW brought in Jeremy Giambi as a favor for his agent, that is all. Good relationships betwee a GM and an agent are key especially when he represents players on the Sox. Besides Jeremy never came out and said that his brother did anything, he admitted that he had done somethings during the course of his career but never said that his brother did.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Sep 13, 2005 -> 12:04 AM) I believe Bonds took them from 2001-2003. Also Giambi's bro was with the sox and basiclly said that both he and Jason were on roids. I gaurantee with 100% certainty that he was taking roids before '01. How are you just going to believe Jeremy Giambi, the guy is slime and would say anything for attention. Still no proof that Jason ever did roids.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Sep 12, 2005 -> 11:58 PM) no he was he said he was. I do think he was on roids. There's not proof he ever said this. The court records were sealed and what you heard about him admitting to taking roids was through a leak, which is no gaurantee that it happened. Then when he appologized, he never actually said he took roids. So if you believe Bonds didn't take roids then you have to believe Giambi as well. There's no proof for either.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Sep 12, 2005 -> 11:49 PM) yes but you don't know that maybe he wasn't on roids. LMAO, sure he wasn't on anything, you're right. My bad.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Sep 12, 2005 -> 11:45 PM) i know but from the interviews with conte and everyone he didn't hire Anderson until 2001. He supposedly gave him the roids. He supposedly gave him the designer s*** he was taking. You don't know what he was taking before that. You should just stop, now.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Sep 12, 2005 -> 11:40 PM) first even though i do believe he was on them we don't know for sure. 2nd of all he was a skinny dude that season. Just because you're not massive doesn't mean you're not on roids, why do you think olympic sprinters take performance enhancers? You can take them to get thin and lean which is what he was possibly doing.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Sep 12, 2005 -> 11:40 PM) he wasn't on roids in the 90's. Because you know Bonds sooo well right. :rolly You don't know what he did or when he did it.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Sep 12, 2005 -> 11:37 PM) OVERRATED! Just keep telling yourself that.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Sep 12, 2005 -> 11:35 PM) appreciate the numbers before that 2001 season. They were Sick! Too bad he had to take roids, it totally eliminates anything he's ever accomplished.

When I read that article I literally vomited, I kid you not. It wasn't a lot but it was enough to get my attention. Mike North would be the absolute worse choice to fill in for Rooney, bar none.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Sep 12, 2005 -> 11:19 PM) :headshake He really is amazing. Whether he is on roids or not roids don't give you 500 SB and 500 HR. He had the 500 HR in the bag before 2000. He would've gotten 500 SB. No he is just an amazing hitter. And he is on roids.

Vick is going to be a great QB. He can beat you with his legs and his arm.
