QUOTE(jphat007 @ Jul 7, 2006 -> 08:58 PM) Rooks are like 1-9 against us this year. We just weren't good tonight. Didn't say it was a trend. As a fan I just don't like seeing a big game come up against a rookie with our ace on the mound and not take advantage of several opportunities against an inexperienced opponent.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Jul 7, 2006 -> 08:50 PM) Lester is undefeated this season with a 3.06 ERA and Delcarmen has had ups and downs but a 3.86 ERA overall. Pretty good. Sarcasm without the green, pointing out we got beat by a couple young no-names.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Jul 7, 2006 -> 08:43 PM) Hooray for getting beat by Manny Delcarmen and Jon Lester. Who?

QUOTE(TitoMB345 @ Jul 7, 2006 -> 08:22 PM) Can I get a quick update on how we've looked? Just got home. Ignorance is bliss.

QUOTE(mreye @ Jul 7, 2006 -> 12:38 PM) Ding, ding, ding! "This guy can go yard, folks. His next one will be his 3rd." Whenever something exciting is happening, you can't even tell on the radio because neither Farmer nor Singleton show any enthusiasm as something is happening. It drives me nuts.

Anyone to get rid of Cliffy.

How many teams have gone 11-1 in the playoffs? Come on, no '05 Sox?

The starters haven't done well lately, and every team has stints during the season where they don't play well. The nice thing is, our team is so good that we aren't playing well and still winning at a championship pace. I believe that it's a safe assumption that our starters will return to form sooner rather than later, with the possible exception of Vasquez, who seems to always underachieve. (However, the Cooper fix took almost a year on Contreras, not that I advocate promoting a season of mediocrity before he does well.)

Wow, those are absolutely huge changes.

I'm only disappointed because I wanted to see Anderson rock some ass again before he serves his suspension.

A lot of pro-life supporters will say abortion is okay in cases of rape, but with our justice system it takes much longer than 9 months to prove someone was or wasn't raped. The abortion couldn't be done with proof of guilt or innocence.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Jun 14, 2006 -> 03:46 PM) Here is a discussion question on that topic... Which would be more effective - creating a viable third party, or having the leaders of one party or the other drag the party back towards the middle? I think if another party was formed, eventually one party would end up falling out of favor and we'd be back to our two party system.

That's crazy, driving 40 miles south to Bloomington-Normal without asking would get my ass kicked at home. I wouldn't even think about trying to pull that kind of stunt.

Almost clever, could have been pulled off much better. Just pales in comparison to SNL, which sucks nowadays.

I recall reading about Refrigderator Perry a couple years ago, and when he was drafted he was one of only two or three in the league that were above 300 pounds and he was encouraged to get under the 300 pound mark. Now

Did anyone else get the notion that he pulled Tracey for not hitting that guy?

I agree, I've been sitting here laughing for about 5 minutes. I wouldn't be able to keep a straight face knowing I was gonna look like that.

i'd like to know how they got that done.

QUOTE(rudylaw @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 12:24 PM) Where would he play?

I know a lot of guys in college that have used it to meet potential new friends when new at college and a couple found girls they had talked to around campus on there.
