QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Nov 8, 2007 -> 12:13 AM) LOL Lots of teams send players on pace for 35 homers and 100 RBIs back to AAA. Especially after finishing worst in the league in offense. We are a confused franchise.

QUOTE(fathom @ Nov 8, 2007 -> 12:05 AM) Josh Fields will be starting for the Sox next year somewhere....don't overreact to what KW said. I heard the interview on the radio tonight, and it was totally bulls***. Probably true but it's not the crap I want to hear. This organization has a history of horribly mishandling young players, it better not happen to Josh.

What the F is wrong with this organization

QUOTE(fathom @ Nov 6, 2007 -> 11:58 PM) I'm hoping Paxson and/or Skiles get fired for this mess. Ben Wallace continues to be the worst player in the NBA with regards to production vs contract. Ridiculous.

MSU beat Michigan Tech by a whole 6 points tonight. Two good exhibition games by Sparty.

That's really a no brainer.

QUOTE(Palehosefan @ Nov 7, 2007 -> 10:06 PM) Kentucky and UConn are both going to struggle big time this year. Gardner-Webb is better than people realize, but UK is just ugly and has no interior defense. Agreed on both. I hate these damn espn u games though, I want to see some of these darn teams play.

UK down 14 to Gardner Webb.

QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Nov 7, 2007 -> 01:18 PM) Good to see you are carrying on the tradition. Let em eat some shoulder, especially if they are looking behind them or to the sides to say hi to another frat boy. Also, people who don't wait for the whistle at a hockey game are huge assholes and should rot in hell. Yeah, I said it. I'm not there to watch you, sit the f*** down/don't come back to your seat until there is a whistle. Same thing also applies, to a bit lesser degree, to the middle of an at bat at a baseball game. Pssh, what are you talking about? We've never had trouble with those type of people at games.

Oh goody.

Erin Andrews by far and away.

Richmond tied with Memphis half way through the 2nd half.

Heh, OSU loses. Exhibition season has not been kind to the big 10.

QUOTE(Soxbadger @ Nov 6, 2007 -> 06:31 PM) Strangely good game on BTN, OSU v Findlay. Findlay up 26-14 with 8:30 left to go. Doubt they win, but they actually look decent. OSU still trailing midway through the 2nd half.

People who wear hats while playing basketball.

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Nov 6, 2007 -> 06:01 PM) Not minding Eck might be it. I full envision Eckstein getting something like 3-4 years at $7-8 mill per, and that's way too much Eckstein for me. Some people would boycott the White Sox if they signed Barry Bonds; I boycott the White Sox if they sign David Eckstein (joking...I'd just be as pissed off as possible) If he gets 7-8, I don't want any part of him either. I highly doubt he gets that much(yes, even with the news of this Vizquel disaster).

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Nov 6, 2007 -> 05:53 PM) That's how badly I wish Eckstein to stay away from the White Sox. He's not going to cost that much and he's certainly not going to require a lot of years. No he's not the best player in the world but he's not the worst either. I know a lot of people around here dismiss batting average but at least he can hit the damn ball. At this point, I just want to have some players who can plug some holes, make contact, just have the chance to get on base. Also(this is where most disagree with me), I really don't think he's a bad defensive player, imo he's about average. Hell, I might be the only one but I really wouldn't mind Eck on this team.

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Nov 6, 2007 -> 05:48 PM) I seriously would rather have Andy Gonzalez at SS than David Eckstein, because they're saving money and the club would know that it's putting an embarrassing product on the field. Yeesh, cmon now.

QUOTE(LauraJ14 @ Nov 6, 2007 -> 05:00 PM) Why would Weber lose his job if they had lost to SIU in the tournament? SIU was a better basketball team at tournament time than Illinois last season. As an longtime Illini fan, I can be fair and objective about my team's chances. I think Weber did a fine job last season with the injuries and problems that the team had. I am looking forward to seeing this year's team and think they are going to surprise some people. Because before this recent recruiting explosion he's had, he was just getting criticized like no other due to his lack of superstars that he brought in. SIU was obviously the better team last season but some of the U of I fans would have exploded if they would have lost to SIU.

Definitely hope we try and re-sign Mack.

QUOTE(DrunkBomber @ Nov 6, 2007 -> 12:51 PM) its been a while since I made the drive...Im glad to hear there are still the cornfields And that's about it. The prison is a nice touch though. I've gotten used to the ride but I still have to hop myself up on energy drinks just to stay alert cause it's so damn boring.

QUOTE(Brian @ Nov 6, 2007 -> 11:46 AM) I'm actually going to steal that and make it my avy.

QUOTE(SnB @ Nov 6, 2007 -> 11:06 AM) I'm really excited to see Illinois play tonight, I missed the first exhibition game and kinda feel out of it. Now college basketball can start, because Snb said so. Are you still planning on coming down here for the IU game? Let me know for sure so I can keep a look out for tickets. Greasy what about you?

QUOTE(fathom @ Nov 6, 2007 -> 08:50 AM) Khalil Greene would put up monster numbers in the Cell. I think Jack Wilson is an upgrade over Uribe, especially if Ozzie wants a team that he can put hit-and-runs on, etc. ^^^ I'd absolutely LOVE Khalil Greene.

The "overrated" chant at a sporting event. Makes me want to punch people.
