QUOTE(salty99 @ Apr 15, 2006 -> 08:16 PM) So how was the Crede appearance for anyone who went and what did you get signed? It went pretty good; i got a picture signed from the 2006 official yearbook, and my brother got a baseball signed. We were able to shake his hand, get and autograph and take a picture with Joe if you brought a camera. I congratulated him on a great playoff performance and wished him the best of luck to repeat again this year. Here are a few pics; i'm the one in the jersey and my brother is in the black shirt.

^^ lol

QUOTE(KJean @ Apr 12, 2006 -> 10:52 AM) I was just wondering if anyone had any information about Crede having an appearance/ autograph signing this Saturday somewhere. I think I read about it on here, but then again I could be making it up. Thanks! Crede will be at the North Riverside Toys R Us between 630-8pm this Saturday, April 15th. There were only 225 vouchers given out to people who spent $30+ on MLB merchandise at that store only. I recieved my voucher on Sat April 1st, and was number 88. That following Monday, my friend went and the number jumped quickly; he was #185. If you plan on doing this, I suggest you get to that Toys R Us as quickly as possible, but I'm gonna guess that all the vouchers have been given out already.

i had a few guys sitting behind me on Wednesday that got excited everytime there was a ball in the air, so that kind of gave away that they were new to the Sox. But the thing that made me laugh out loud: 1st guy: (after noticing Makowiak was in RF)....So what happened to Dye? 2nd guy: maybe they moved him to DH.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Mar 6, 2006 -> 03:13 PM) Um just a bit of advice, I wouldn't post about anything illegal here, because it won't stay up. [wink, wink] sorry, i wasn't thinking. you can delete this thread.

last week, a buddy borrowed me season 1 of Lost. I heard a lot of great things about the show, but I was never able to watch it. So, last Sunday I watched the first 2 pilot episodes, and throughout the week, I watched at least two per night. I was addicted, wanting to see more without waiting, and i peaked at 9 episodes on Friday! I finished the the last few episodes last night, marking all 24 episodes in one week. Lost is my crack, and i need more! But i can't just jump into the middle of season two. The first season was released on DVD last September, so I can expect season 2 to be released around the same date, but I can't wait that long. Does anyone have all of season 2 recorded? If so, can I borrow or get a copy of it? You would be my bestest friend of all time

Old World Pizza's deep dish in Elmwood Park is pretty damn good.

Espn's homepage has a pic of Thome stretching. The article, though, is for Insider's only.

thanks for the replies so far. the Hybrid does cost about an extra $3000 over the EX. plus, I don't think dealers will be going much under the MSRP for the Hybrids due to their current high demand.

QUOTE(TheBlackSox8 @ Feb 15, 2006 -> 07:33 PM) i join leagues but don't pay attention to them because they are free............i do however pay attention to all leagues i pay for. that's the reason i have so many last place finishes. yea, i'm the same way. out of 40 eligible trophy leagues: 5-1st place (4 baseball, 1 basketball) 1-2nd place 6 - 3rd place

Ok, i'm finaly signed up. team name: Steve Sax'ofone (yea, i know, its lame) also...the draft tme/date works for me.

Within the next few months, I'm looking to purchase a new 2006 Honda Civic EX Sedan. I'm looking to go more towards the economical road and trade in my gas-guzzling Monte Carlo. I've done a bit of research on the Civic, mainly from Edmunds.com, plus a buddy at work gave me one of those pamphlets he picked up at the dealership. It looks like the car that will best suite my needs, and i love the estimated 30 city/40 highway. anyways, for those of you who currently own a Civic: What kind of gas mileage are you getting (especially in the city)? what do you love about the car? any regrets on purchasing it? can you reccomend a good dealer in the Chicagoland area? when responding, please state the year and style of your car. thanks! (I don't know if Gene Honda Civic actually owns a Civic, or just uses a clever take off the announcer's name)

QUOTE(ChWRoCk2 @ Feb 15, 2006 -> 09:38 PM) Did you join yet? no, i haven't had a chance to register just yet. but i made a note to sign up when i get home from work tonight.

Thanks for posting the league info, commish.

i cant access the yahoo fantasy sports site from work. can someone please post all the settings? like roster requirments, draft date/time, etc.? thanks!

QUOTE(SnB @ Feb 3, 2006 -> 03:02 PM) No one mentioned "are you afraid of the dark?" yet? for shame. i was thinking the same thing! wow, this really brings back old memories.

I don't recall which league i was in last year, but i think it was 6. but i'll play in any league that has a live draft and plays head to head.

please keep Gload as far away from the OF as possible.

question for the PS2 online guys: does anyone know if this D-Link Wireless adapter will work on my PS2? i have the online adapter for PS2 from a friend, but i've never used it.

QUOTE(Ishmookie @ Jan 10, 2006 -> 06:20 PM) i still havent got my al champs stuff and i ordered it the night they won. I had problems with my order too. I called MLB.com, (888-MLB-SHOP) and received credit. they even admitted on being overwhelmed with orders and mixing up addresses.

I tried Fat Tire for the first time on New Years Eve and i really wasn't too fond of the taste. But I'm sure that my buddy will be happy to hear he soon will be able to buy it in the city.

on...NOW

Welcome back Pauly! to another 5 productive years!

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Nov 24, 2005 -> 08:56 PM) I was teary-eyed at moments Same here. So many good moments wrapped up in just 1 hour. What a special season. What a special team. man, i love those guys.

Thank you Aaron. Without you contributions to the team, we would have not have won the World Series. And now a quick story....my sister is a big Rowand fan, and Friday is her birhtday. I was at Grandstand around noon today and I purchased a Rowand autographed helmet. And now, i just told her about the trade. She is crushed. I also decided to give her the gift I bought for her, even though its a few days early. To think that just 3 hours ago, i had the perfect present for her. well, she loves the gift, but she (as will a lot of us) will miss Arow. best of luck in Philly.
