QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 04:54 PM) OMG the are only 80% white. They are THE whitest team in baseball but that does not make them racists. It just means they have a bunch of really good white guys on their team.

QUOTE(GoSox05 @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 04:40 PM) I wanna play the A's in the playoffs. Cause revenge is a dish best served in the playoffs. Ever notice the A's are all white guys. A bunch of racists. Wheres the culture on that team. Kiko Calero - Puerto Rico Ricardo Rincon - Mexico Keiichi Yabu - Japan Marco Scutaro - Venezuela Jay Paton - Black

QUOTE(GoSox05 @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 04:33 PM) Cotts looks like Nolan Ryan. They're both white.

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 04:21 PM) = star Ok so there's a second spelling, I'm a f***tard. Don't mind me.

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 04:16 PM) I think it's not a shock so much as it is finally the bombshell markee player getting nabbed just like we all anticipated would eventually happen. When you add in: • the timing of the story, right after Palmiero reaches the 3,000/500 plateau • his 'Never Never NEVER' testimony before Congress • the accusation by Canseco that he personally injected Raffy's ass and Palmiero's eearlier dismissal of that as a lie, and the new legs this that story will get now that it's going to come down to 'knowingly' juicing... It becomes a big story.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 08:49 AM) Upset, we could have had Villone for next to nothing. Umm no. The Marlins gave up Yorman Bazardo who is a top 3 prospect in the Marlins organization. The Sox would have to top that. I doubt you would consider that next to nothing.

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 12:31 PM) But I'm actually curious. It would make some sense...in a way...maybe. There could be something in there that tests like 'roids. Heck, I'm no chemist. Maybe he should switch to Cialis to see if he still tests positive. I highly doubt there's any kind of steroid in viagra. That's the kind of thing that has to be worned to the user ahead of time. If viagra contained a steroid it would be expressed to the consumer before they took it.

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 12:27 PM) Does Viagra have some sort of roid in it? Kind of a serious question here. 3rd viagra joke.

QUOTE(DukeNukeEm @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 11:50 AM) he's going to spend some time in jail. No, no he's not. I gaurantee he doesn't get charged with pergery.

I wanna go back and watch a tape of the congressional hearings where he gets all emotional and says that he never used any sort of enhancers. What a lying prick bastard.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 04:05 AM) Just a theory. First there's this from whitesox.com I believe: General manager Ken Williams said the Sox were close to landing "something inpactful" that was killed by an opposing team's ownership group. Next, Griffey didn't play today and he owns Woody Williams so it kind of seems odd for him to have an off day. Then there's the fact that I could see the Reds wanting to hang onto Jr bad contract or not because of his resurgence and the fact that if they traded him for a not so hot package it'd be bad pr. JR said he's willing to take on anything and taking on most of Jr's contract would have meant that Kenny would have been able to hang onto most of our top spects while acquiring a difference maker, seems like something he'd do. So anyways, just a theory I came up with, rip into me if you want. You're an idiot Even though I have confirmed your theory as being fact via telepathy.

QUOTE(Dam8610 @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 03:36 AM) If you make a claim on a player, you are allowed to negotiate a trade for that player. Unless the team that placed the player on waivers pulls him off waivers the second you claim him.

QUOTE(wsox08 @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 01:37 AM) I'm naked right now.... Ban this man.

QUOTE(dasox24 @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 12:29 AM) That would be awesome. I love Furcal and really wanted him on this team when there were rumors of him coming here (can't remember exactly how long ago that was). He's really been vital to the Braves' winning this year, and would be a very welcome addition to the lineup. Can you imagine Pods and Furcal batting 1 and 2, allowing Iguchi to move down in the lineup were he would probably knock in more runs and really solidify the bottom of the lineup. I'm not sure, however, what we'd do with Uribe or Crede. I guess we'd get rid of one or the other, or what would be even sweeter would be if Uribe would be happy in a utility role. However, after starting 2 years in a row, I doubt he'd want to go back to being a utility guy. Last thing, who's Furcal's agent? Adam Katz and Paul Kinzer Adam Katz is the guy who got Aramis Ramirez his 4 year $42M contract and Sammy Sosa his 4 year $72M deal.

QUOTE(Sonik22 @ Jul 31, 2005 -> 11:29 PM) what is baj's posting name? Man Hands

QUOTE(sayitaintso @ Jul 31, 2005 -> 11:29 PM) I do the math and check it so much to make sure i am right, but i will say what i do and please tell me if i am wrong. I add our wins to the twins losses(68+50=118) then i subtract 162 from the amount of our wins and twin losses combined(162-118=44 ) then i get the magic number. You're supposed to add 1 to it.

QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ Jul 31, 2005 -> 11:16 PM) didn't they end it by saying they won the lotto in a dream or something? The early episodes i like, but it really tailed off toward the end. Toward the end they won the lottery and were rich and s***, then Dan had an affair and it really made no sense. The last couple seasons were pure s*** but other than that I always thought it was a pretty funny show.

QUOTE(whitesox91403 @ Jul 31, 2005 -> 05:43 PM) Glad he's out of the Central. Glad he's out of the AL.

It would have taken Gio + some to get Villone.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Jul 31, 2005 -> 09:01 PM) I can play all infield positions too if you want a David Eckstein type without any muscle, skill or talent. One thing you do have however is intangables.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Jul 31, 2005 -> 01:11 PM) Man, imagine we don't make a move. How useless would this whole forum have been? All of our time obsessing over possible deals...and nothing. Am I ever gonna be testy for the next few days. Geoff Blum.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jul 31, 2005 -> 12:30 PM) Aren't you supposed to be working? 2 o'clock duh.
