QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 09:18 AM) ^^^ I went to zero football games when I was in High School, and I have no interest in going to any now. Me neither. Basketball is where it's at for me.

QUOTE(whitesoxin' @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:29 PM) I really need to stop dreaming. Getting Griffey would be amazing. I'm already debating which jersey I should buy when he comes here, the sleveless home or the road grey jersey? I'll buy each one. Sleeveless, White, Black, Grey.

I thought the Maggs/Willie thing was bad last year, but man this was brutal.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:20 PM) Considering that we were offering Contreras to any and all takers before the trade deadline, and Ozzie's preference of Duque over Contreras....I think it's very likely we try to trade him in the offseason. He's going to be making a lot of money next season, and with only one year left on his deal, some teams around the league might be very interested in trading for him and hoping for the best. I don't remember Contreras being offered to and for anyone. In fact, Contreras wasn't even part of the Burnett trades. Some people speculated he might be in the deal, but when it came down to it, it was Marte and BMac. I've heard of teams wanting Contreras(FLA & SF) but it doesn't mean we put him out there.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 11:29 AM) Timo Ozuna Timo Widger Timo Rowand Blum Crede Uribe So the regulars today?? I don't think Timo is getting enough at bats today. He could play SS, can't he?

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:15 PM) I don't think Sox will lock up Crede to a multi-year deal. Also, I fully anticipate the Sox trying to trade Contreras and Marte this offseason. Maybe Marte, but I don't see them trading Count. I don't think BMac will be ready next year. I think they'll just let Count and El Duque ride out their current contracts and then when they're up, BMac will at least take Duque's spot.

Problem with Marte is he short arm's his pitches most of the time now. Look at his release in 2003 and look at it now. He short arms it a lot. That's why this year, it's been rare to see him dial it up for the 95 he used to hit consistantly. Even compare the game against Cleveland with one of his bad games and you could see it. That's why he doesn't get lefties out and that's why his slider really isn't effective anymore. Cooper has failed with this guy IMHO. That's the only guy who has really deproved on this pitching staff since Coop got here.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 11:31 AM) This trade will likely all revert back to whether or not the Reds ownership wants to trade Griffey Jr. I'm not sure why everyone thinks they'll change their mind about 2 weeks after saying no to the trade the first time. That's true.

Some people also need to take into account the money Griffey would make for this team which would help pay for his contract. Griffey is the type of guy people would come out to the ballpark just to see. He's one of those rockstar baseball players without the rockstar mentality. Him alone would help attendance. His jersey sales would be off the charts. Money should not be a problem in getting him here.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Aug 11, 2005 -> 10:01 PM) The cheaters boxes for the old cable before Comcast was the s***. Channel 1 and the 90's were all PPV. Yep. I think it was TCI. And Jugger is unfortunately right. They have been hacked, but you need to buy some stuff from a computer store and basically need to have your box opened and connected to your computer. Even at that, it's not full proof.

QUOTE(sircaffey @ Aug 11, 2005 -> 10:15 PM) We should combine forces with all White Sox message boards and raise money... I would seriously contribute 120 bucks a year for his salary if need be. Get him here now Kenny.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Aug 11, 2005 -> 09:47 PM) I still know many people with the cheater box. Pretty much only works with WOW though, I think. But I won't go into detail. Yep, if you have WOW it works like a charm. Problem is, I don't have WOW. Damnit technological advances. I want my free ppv's and premium's back!!! Honestly though, Comcast's lineup sucks. I just lost the tv guide channel last night. I learned I really didn't lose it, but it's all the way on channel 98 or something along those lines. Pain in the butt to press buttons you're not use to.

Let's get things started the right way. Crede will hit a grand slam in the top of the 8th to win it. LET'S RIP'EM!!!

QUOTE(farmteam @ Aug 11, 2005 -> 03:05 PM) Don't take this the wrong way, but schools send lots of people letters, and they mean zilch. Is it a great way to get to know a school? Sure. But it doesn't mean you're in or anything. I can think of a couple schools that sent me letters like that that I have no shot of getting in at. Also, don't narrow your focus so much. It's great that you're interested, but keep your options open. Very true. I got letters from school's I knew I had no shot at.

Not Jenkins. My bad. It was their 3rd WR. I forgot Jenkins was with the Falcons. Bryant Johnson.

Cardinals are the only team that I see that could offer WR's for him. Probably Boldin or Jenkins.
