QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Nov 25, 2005 -> 06:32 AM) .241/.379/.535 That right there is Jim Thome's ZiPS projection. Now, I know a lot of you guys aren't really thrilled with projection systems, and that's fine. Let's throw that to the side for a minute. Would you be happy if Thome posted this line? Do you expect more? I think I expect the BA to be closer to .270, but I like those OBP/SLG% numbers. I think the projection above is the floor of what Thome will do for us (so long as he's healthy). i wouldn't be that happy with that...he'd have to have some sick power numbers...hmm...i just realized i'm not sure what i'm reading...gawd, i'm a fraud...i've been posing like i knew these stat lines all along

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Nov 24, 2005 -> 03:50 AM) I know. I was just using hindsight to show that many times prospects don't turn into the super studs that people think they will be. Kenny Williams makes out well on most of his trades. Aaron Miles for Juan Uribe Miguel Olivo, Jeremy Reed, and Michael Morse for Freddy Garcia Esteban Loaiza for Jose Contreras And Carlos Lee for Scott Podsednik and Luis Vizcaino worked out for both teams. and mike sirotka for david wells...worked out poorly for both teams... so he is a fair trader... I don't know, i love this trade cause we see Jim Thome in a sox uni, but honestly, the phils made out pretty well in this deal, i think this is pretty fair.

QUOTE(hi8is @ Nov 24, 2005 -> 03:20 AM) "B.A. is a good player. He's going to be fine," said Rowand of Anderson. "He can hit. He plays defense. He plays the game the right way. Chicago fans and the White Sox are going to be happy to have him." god damn, it really is a sad day to see him go...

i really don't like pierre

I think i'm imagining this trade being so great because i feel we can still sign Kong...if we can't...its still a great trade, just that project lineup loses sumpum..

i can't believe we had to give up Gio...

i just read in the tribune today that the angels did not go as high as the 5 for 60 konerko and landis wanted

i say keep anderson... but what i love about this deal is i honestly feel we can nab konerko back. And THAT is what's key. This deal is good know...but its even better if we sign konerko... i'll miss you rowand, you are intertwined forever in m y life

i agtree with above, i love rowands attitude and play ... but if we want to get better he is a player we can get rid of without losing too much production

QUOTE(sox4lifeinPA @ Nov 22, 2005 -> 03:43 AM) bmags, what have you got against coldplay? they're like the average man band's band. Solid songs, solid singing, solid playing, solid records. not sure where you're coming from. i don't like bands that refuse to grow so that they can maintain their profits...and you are right, everything about coldplay is avg...except his songwriting, which is disgustingly sophomoric.... look up swallowed by the sea...barf

QUOTE(WSoxMatt @ Nov 22, 2005 -> 02:13 AM) I hate Norte Dame, Love Rudi, Hate Notre Dame i used to hate notre dame, then they started sucking...for a while...and then it tamed.

i got my job at potbellys back

QUOTE(Texsox @ Nov 21, 2005 -> 11:35 PM) I couldn't spell connosouser close enough for the spell checker to find it :banghead Sorry. :rolly i prefer the title "that friend that you don't want to play music around because he'll make fun of you" but snob...thats just disrespectful

QUOTE(Texsox @ Nov 21, 2005 -> 11:22 PM) When you generally dislike a group/artist, and you find that one song that you do like, is it a deep album cut or a most popular. Example, Greatful Dead, Touch of Gray or something else? Todd Rudgren, Hello it's Me or something else? Beatles, Hey Jude or something else? totally depends, sometimes they really create gold...i mean i despise coldplay with all my heart, but fix you was a damn good song, and that was a single, but sometimes when you absolutely hate a band, it'll be that one song that they actually take the chance on that would never be considered for a single that i'd give love to...and i can't think of any right now...but give me a minute...and i resent music snob title in this...

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Nov 21, 2005 -> 06:16 PM) I'm not so sure I want to reply to Critic's disagreement with me about The Clash, especially when I went to length's to talk about "PERSONAL OPINION'S". You can't use "influence", as ABBA, Shaun Cassidy and the Village People surely influenced quite afew people, as did Milli Vanilli. And then you can't say anything about "value" to the music world, as in somebodies eyes RnR and it's like are pure crap anyways...because it is all about personal opinions and tastes. ...pain in my f***ing ass... i think another important aspect to the clash is the sentimental edge they have...for a lot of people, the clash in high school was as good as it gets. As much as i love pavement, all the looking back reviews i see of it tell me there is no way it could ever be as important to me as to someone who recieved a tape of slanted and enchanted and put it in during a party...I mean music is the timeline to our lives. I'd give a good bet that when i put down my favorite cds ever list, they coincide with some of the best memories of my life... just my 2 cents... and no comments on my list besides god only knows...ARGh

i've always hated charlie steiner...he would always be interviewed on chicago sports radio just to say how much better the yankees were than everyone else and how nobody could compete with the red sox and yankees.

well, best in this title should be substituted for "favorite" because thats what this is... My List: King of Carrot Flowers pt. 1 - this is my fav. song on the album, particularly because of mangums drawl on each word...it was beautiful...sorry, this is Neutral milk hotel song from ITAOTS For Real - Okkervil River i love this song. Really morbid lyrics but the slide guitar and slamming i just love... This is just a modern rock song - Belle and Sebastian i love belle and sebastian and this is a particular highlight Black Frank - Brian Eno i love the tongue in cheek way this song is written plus any eno song has some great guitar work Where is My Mind - The Pixies it was between this and debaser, but i love the eeiriness of this song...the distorted voice to make it sound like a dolphin, it's just a perfect song The Classical - The fall just a personal favorite of mine The Endless Plain of Fortune - John Cale, i love the piano, the strange way of singing, the tempo, i love Paris in 1919 When You Sleep - My Bloody Valentine the crazy synths (i think, hard to know what instrument is ever actually playing in a MBV song, the two voices singing...wonderful How to Dissappear COmpletely - Radiohead the climax of the amazing first four tracks to Kid A...haunting in how it makes you feel claustrophobic before breaking out of the box I want her she wants me - The zombies wonderful melodies God Only Knows - the beach boys
