Lost on another buzzer beater on a phantom foul. Unreal, this team can't catch a break.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Jan 23, 2008 -> 12:51 PM) Five hours. I urge people to support everyone's favorite mid major playing major college athletics, Iowa State. GO CLONES

There have been some deals that I haven't liked just looking at that deal only but I really like what Kenny has done overall. But once again, the starting rotation scares the hell out of me(sorry balta).

Best: 2005, nuff said Worst: Last years SIU-KU game. Felt like my world just ended.

:cheers

Big time game in the Valley tonight with Drake playing at Creighton. If Drake wins they have a strangle hold on the conference already but if they lose, they come back to the pack a little bit and a few teams jump right back into the race.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Jan 22, 2008 -> 12:49 AM) I've very much against giving away MacDougal. I'm with ya. If someone is actually willing to give up something for him then I'd all be for trading him but I'd rather keep him around and hope he bounces back than to just give him away.

I think the Giants will hang around for a while but I give them a whole 0 percent chance of winning.

QUOTE(SnB @ Jan 21, 2008 -> 01:55 PM) we stayed in the holiday inn a few blocks away from the stadium last year. Good location to the stadium, but not much else. If you're going, rent a car because where the stadium is located is all industrial, not that much to do. We had to cab it to go into "downtown" tucson and that cost a fortune. Heh, that's where I stayed when I went in 05. There is absolutely nothing around there.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Jan 17, 2008 -> 02:20 PM) You guys should hear/see the auto dealership voice guy in southern illinois. His name is Dan something or another, and his catch phrase is "You come and see us" with a really thick southern drawl, the guy is just DRENCHED in spray on tan His commercials are so annoying. Im sure Rowand44, Brian, and Sonik22 know exactly who I am talking about Ha, I just saw this. Ya, Dan Walters. The car commercials down here are the worst things on earth, they're god awful.

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Jan 21, 2008 -> 10:54 PM) Yes it is It definitely is but a lot of bullpens have a ton of ifs, that's the beauty of a pen I guess you can say. I really like the depth we seem to have in the pen now, we have some nice options.

QUOTE(Brian @ Jan 21, 2008 -> 09:34 PM) I'm not ready to give Carlos Quentin the starting LF spot. Fields and Crede can both start. Quentin will be starting, my friend.

QUOTE(SoxAce @ Jan 21, 2008 -> 09:23 PM) Ditto. Still iffy on the starting pitching, but this team could actually could surprise alot of people. QUOTE(The Critic @ Jan 21, 2008 -> 09:27 PM) They need to make at least one significant addition to the rotation before I get excited about the 2008 Sox. The bullpen seems to have been addressed well - better than last off-season, anyway. The offense should be better than OK with the addition of Cabrera and Swisher, although the leadoff spot is still a concern. But without AT LEAST three reliable starters, I just can't get too pumped up. Yup, I'm in total agreement. I'm getting excited cause I think we can be competitive but the rotation definitely scares the crap out of me.

This is the first time I've seen a full show but have any of the women completed the hand bike? They always had trouble with that thing when it was at the start of the eliminator in it's first go around, I can't imagine many being able to conquer it, ditto with the treadmill thing.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jan 21, 2008 -> 08:01 PM) The Sox need a power hitter on the bench? As of today two of Uribe, Crede, and Fields will be on the bench. Neither Crede or Fields will be bench players. Crede will either be starting or gone and Fields will either be starting or in aaa(better be starting).

Love it. I'm actually starting to get excited about this team, that scares me.

Last year I definitely went with the no shaving until SIU lost a game and it went nearly 2 months there. The beard was out of control.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Jan 20, 2008 -> 03:59 PM) BTW, Row, our agreement is working out. NCAA championship, man.

QUOTE(Brian @ Jan 20, 2008 -> 01:00 PM) Crud, just noticed Wednesday is the annual Sure Loss for SIU. @ Mizz State. We won there last year. Two in a row would be nice. I'm sure we'll play horrible though.

Depending on what happens with the Crede/Fields situation, I think at this point we're looking at: OCab ss Swish cf Thome dh Konerko 1b Dye rf AJP c Crede/Fields 3b Quentin lf Richar 2b

Well we're still better than the 2 worst teams in the Valley. So that's good news. Mini Rant: We've lost on two buzzer beaters this season and we also lost a game where we blew a 9 point lead in the last 4 minutes. We win those 3 games like we should have and this whole season is completely different. Obviously, good teams usually find a way to win those types of games but it sucks to think about what could have been. sigh.

QUOTE(The Critic @ Jan 19, 2008 -> 10:12 AM) I think he was a bit surprised that the puck came back to him, really. It bounced around a little from the pokecheck and came back to him with everyone else out of position. He did all the work to create that play, and in a huge situation (down a goal in the final minute of play) - it was a true "playmaker's play". Ya, good call.
