QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Mar 23, 2005 -> 03:12 PM) well he has been throwing better than luis this spring. Luis hasn't been great but it's not like he's been awful.

QUOTE(BHAMBARONS @ Mar 23, 2005 -> 03:03 PM) That's my bad I didn't even realize I placed it here until after I posted it. I am still getting use to the site Is there anyway I can move it out of here Tom Don't worry about it, I was just giving you a heads up. I'm sure one of the mods will move it eventually.

QUOTE(BHAMBARONS @ Mar 23, 2005 -> 02:11 PM) Som much for the flubs using him as lead off hitter if he is going to look that bad swinging at pitches in the dirt that is not the mark of a lead off hitter Tom No offense but this shouldn't be in pale hose talk, it has nothing to do with the sox.

Happy bday Mark

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Mar 22, 2005 -> 11:27 PM) Doug will be pimpin the (women)! yea uh oh s*** i may need a prom date too...but I don't think I will start my own thread. I will just save up my money and be like hey, you wanna go with me - $50 in it for you I'm with heads about prom. I know the girl I'd go with if I wanted to go but to me it's a waste of time and a waste of money, the only thing that is making me think about going is that my dad said he'd pay for it but I still think it's a waste of time. We'll see what happens.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Mar 22, 2005 -> 11:30 PM) Where exactly can I find hitting and pitching stats for ST so far? Thx. Whitesox.com

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Mar 22, 2005 -> 05:04 PM) Wow just saw the interview on ESPN.... He's done. I did too, he's a fricken asshole like we didn't know that before. What the hell is he trying to blame on the media here?

QUOTE(Steff @ Mar 22, 2005 -> 05:04 PM) I'm an old hag. Obviously so JK Steff. Doug, I'd do exactly wat MoS is telling you. Bring flowers be yourself and just be a good guy, it's as simple as that.

QUOTE(Steff @ Mar 22, 2005 -> 04:58 PM) I would not recommend bringing flowers to school.. Why not?? Guys bring flowers in for girls all the time at my school.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Mar 22, 2005 -> 04:34 PM) They have a ridiculously thin farm system too... Edwin Encarnacion is about all that's there. The first guy that popped into my mind as a kenny/ozzie type of a player from Cinci is Ryan Freel. He's a grinder and he can definitely run, Freel's actually one of my favorite players to watch but like I said it'd be stupid to trade Garland right now.

It'd be dumb to move garland.

QUOTE(robinventura23 @ Mar 22, 2005 -> 03:30 PM) Hawk says Conteras is mixing his pitches up more, instead of just relying on the forkball. That's making him effective today. Spiezio strikes out to end the fifth. He is. It's not splitter, splitter, splitter. He's still not getting ahead of every hitter but since he's mixing up his pitches much better he's way tougher to hit, looks pretty damn good to me so far. He's never going to have great control so he has to do what he's doing today and he should be fine, imo.

Hawk and dj making fun of sprewell as contreras gets out of hte inning.

QUOTE(TheBlackSox8 @ Mar 22, 2005 -> 02:32 PM) here's your sig Wow, great job, thanks a lot.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Mar 21, 2005 -> 10:52 PM) Ok that's why we never had a prom down here. It's was just Formals and Debs really. I found that if you didn't go with a girl, you had more fun to mess around. So in other words, nobody would go with you

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Mar 21, 2005 -> 10:48 PM) Maybe if you didn't call people dweebs, we'd be a little more helpful. But is taking a girl with you the most important thing? Just go and have a good time. You can't go to prom without a date.

I love Hawk, however I agree with aboz that hawk was annoying as hell at soxfest.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Mar 21, 2005 -> 07:54 PM) Remember who reported this... QUOTE(aboz56 @ Mar 21, 2005 -> 07:54 PM) Please make sure we consider the source, Levine. Good point, I seemed to miss that part

QUOTE(Palehosefan @ Mar 21, 2005 -> 07:34 PM) Depends. Sometimes teams rally and play even better for a few games without their star player. But this news might hurt them knowing they are much weaker for the rest of the tourney. I'm still expecting a great game. I wanted Jason Frasor REAL bad, glad to see he's finally getting healthy, even if it hurts my team. I guess we'll see who wins our bet this week, won't we palehose?? I picked Nova to beat UNC but this sumpter injury really does suck, however Frasor was absolutely outstanding yesterday, I'm not sure who got watch that game but he was unstoppable every time he touched the ball he either scored or was sent to the line and if he wasn't getting the ball, he'd get the offensive rebound. Hopefully Frasor can keep up with may and make up for the absence of Sumpter.

QUOTE(hi8is @ Mar 21, 2005 -> 07:32 PM) Just heard Bruce Levine on ESPN 1000 and the results from the CATScan were also inconclusive and that Buerhle may be out of the woods. The only thing that showed up on the scan was a dark shadow that may be a result of an old injury. The new prognosis is that they will rest him for a couple of days and that he may even start to throw again by the end of the week. That's fricken awesome.

Damaso looks awesome. His fastball is crisp again, last year it just wasn't and his slider has that nasty bite back on it. He still needs to get ahead of the hitters but he looks 10 times better then he did last year.

Well obviously buehrle being out really, really sucks. Brandon will get his shot no, no doubt and if he continues to impress and does what we all think he can do, I don't think you can send him back down to the minors. Like I said before if Brandon does pitch well in the majors, that's a great problem to have and something is going to have to be worked out to keep brandon on the major league roster.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Mar 20, 2005 -> 10:00 AM) I am still looking pretty good. Let's hope that lasts. Me too. In the soxtalk bracket there are 6 people either ahead of me or tied with me. Out of those 6 only 2 of them didn't have wake in the final four and those two had them in the elite 8, my whole elite 8 is intact still because I had wake losing 2nd round.

I'm in great shape in my pools. I had Wake losing this round to Creighton so basically I lost 1 point when everyone else lost a ton, that game was huge for me. I also have ttech and utah in the elite 8 so them both winning was big for me. I still have my whole elite 8 intact, looking good so far, tomorrow is absolutely huge for me.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Mar 18, 2005 -> 01:52 PM) I'm 4 for 4 today. Of course, that probably jinxed my ass big time. Whoops..........
