QUOTE(Kalapse @ Nov 1, 2005 -> 11:27 PM) I'm still in shock as to who figured out the rumor before it ever hit the media. By far the most intelligent thing I've ever done.

Present.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Nov 1, 2005 -> 10:14 PM) San antonio is not unstoppable. Three teams in the east can beat them in a seven game series when at full strength. San Antonio is not going to lose this year. They are unstoppable imo.

For anyone who's been watching tnt...I'm with Barkley 100 percent.

In case anyone didnt know...San Antonio is good.

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Nov 1, 2005 -> 02:22 PM) Agreed very much so. That's not what bugged me about that part. LMAO Bill Hall's OPS > Carlos Lee's OPS Willie and I have talked about this a few times, how Carlos had one hell of an overrated season.

QUOTE(chitownsportsfan @ Nov 1, 2005 -> 08:34 PM) \ Jermaine Dye was top 5 in VORP for left fielders in the AL. \ That's good considering he plays right field.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Nov 1, 2005 -> 08:25 PM) If he had went to OSU i would still say he is the best QB in Football. No you wouldn't.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Nov 1, 2005 -> 08:17 PM) Patriots! The Best QB in football will lead the patriots to victory. If I didnt know before I definitely would know now what college he went to.

QUOTE(Steff @ Nov 1, 2005 -> 08:04 PM) No excuse. They make enough $$ to have anything they even think about putting on or in their bodies checked out BEFORE they do it. If players are putting s*** into their body when they dont even know what's in it...then well, they're retarded.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Mystery Person= Frank Thomas. I solved the mystery, do I get a prize?????

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Nov 1, 2005 -> 05:15 PM) Career line vs lefties -- .234/.353/.488. Good for an .841 OPS. Oh, but he has a bad BA vs. lefties. Right... Right, I forget some of you guys just completely dismiss batting average.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Nov 1, 2005 -> 04:25 PM) Kurkjian agrees that Aaron Rowand fans (me), have a right to be upset and I agree. Yet I'm really not upset. Aaron deserves one but there is no point in being upset considering this award has seriously become a joke.

No point at getting upset at these, guys, I mean this award has obviously become a joke so who gives a s***.

QUOTE(rangercal @ Nov 1, 2005 -> 04:13 PM) Your GG Winners , teixerra, Hudson, jeter, chavez, Varitek, hunter, Ichiro, wells, rogers LOL, Hunter?? I feel bad for Aaron and Kotsay..oh well.

Woah..2 years. That's honestly fine with me though and f*** donald fehr and the players union. Sorry, just had to say that.

QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Nov 1, 2005 -> 03:46 PM) Yeah, I thought that too. Then I realized how pissed I'd be when Dunn strikes out swinging with a runner on 3rd and less than 2 outs because he's trying to jack the ball out of the park. No thanks, at least not for the #1 playoff starter of a World Series winning team. That's part of the reason he bugs me as well. He hits around .200 with both risp and risp and 2 outs. If he's the big bat in the middle of the lineup well one of these years he's going to have to drive in big runs in big situations. The walks are nice but you also need your middle of the order hitters to well..drive in important runs. Also he hits .220 against lefties...so basically we're trading maybe our best pitcher for a guy that can't hit lhp, no thanks.

QUOTE(Felix @ Nov 1, 2005 -> 03:41 PM) According to numbers, he's the worst, and has been for awhile now. You said he should have won it in your original post. EDIT: Ok, I see what you meant, the way you had it worded just confused me.

QUOTE(Felix @ Nov 1, 2005 -> 03:37 PM) AJ has no shot. Uribe has no shot since they already said Jeter won it (although he should have won it). Crede is extremely unlikely because A-Rod plays in New York. And Buehrle/Garland likely won't win it, but should. I think Rowand will win one though. Jeter is probably the 4th best defensive ss in the al.

QUOTE(iWiN4PreP @ Nov 1, 2005 -> 03:35 PM) . bah i hate that. After watching a season like that and them not getting some recognition, it sucks . Id at least like to see rowand get it, but also IMO buehrle and crede are well-deservant in it. The others mayb im being a bit biased on. AJ doesnt throw out enough runners to get a gold glove though he obviously calls an awesome game. Joe is almost there but not quite up there yet, he looked like he had a shot but then had a stretch of games that bumped him down just below gg status imo. You can make a good argument for Juan, Aaron, Mark, and Jon imo but none of them are going to win them so oh well.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Nov 1, 2005 -> 09:56 AM) If only the Brewers kept Pods, then they would have won the WS Amazing the ex-player bashing that goes on. I figured since Lee didn't leave via free agency, there would have been less venom :headshake I can't wait to find out what a greedy bastard Konerko is and how it will suck for him in LA, NY, or elsewhere You do know Maggs leaving for more money is not the reason a lot of us hate his guts?

Aaron is the only one with a chance, I'd still bet on him not getting one.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Nov 1, 2005 -> 02:56 PM) I'll never understand why people are so down on Dunn. I don't give a s*** if he strikes out 170 times as long as he hits 40/100 walks 100 times with a .920+ OPS Cause he hits under .250, that's why I personally don't like the guy that much.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Nov 1, 2005 -> 11:03 AM) No...I want to make one thing clear and I think this is how KW feels. The 5 man rotation is off limits (Garland, Buehrle, Garcia, Contreras, and Bmac). The Sox got here with pitching and they aren't about to give it up. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
