I'm never getting a haircut again.

I thought that I heard that he passed through waivers.

QUOTE(ZoomSlowik @ Aug 4, 2006 -> 12:37 PM) I didn't know you were an NU guy... They might sneak into another bowl game if they find a quarterback. God, I can't wait for the first game. Tailgating! Ya, I've liked NU my whole life. That being said, they're probably my favorite major sports team that I follow the least. Still, I'll cheer for them all the time and besides the Sox playoff games I went to this year, the coolest sporting event I was ever at was the Atrain fumble game. That game was just ridiculous and awesome.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Aug 4, 2006 -> 11:55 AM) I will be there Ok, so then I won't go to that game.

I'll be going to my first non Northwestern football games this season. Even though I hate the Illini, I already got tix for Illinois-Iowa and hopefully for Illinois-OSU....ahem Steve.

Pretty obvious that Duke is gonna win it all...

QUOTE(MarlinFan84 @ Aug 4, 2006 -> 04:02 AM) BTW...I've always heard of Olivo's strong arm, but none of you ever mentioned that he was so horrible in every other aspect of defense from behind the plate. Cant block balls in the dirt, cant catch the ball, cant block the plate. Very true.

He's bad.

QUOTE(beck72 @ Aug 3, 2006 -> 06:08 PM) The key is, who would be more valuable to the current and future white sox, BMac or Crawford? IMO, Crawford would be. While BMac is a nice arm, he's not a #1 or a #2 [if BMac threw 95 mph then he could be]. I'm sorry, but you can't just say he's not a number 1 or number 2 starter just because he doesn't throw 95.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Aug 3, 2006 -> 06:47 PM) Having a live Keeper leauge football draft tonight at my buddies house, all 12 of us are doing it in person. Can't wait. I did that last year and our draft for this season is on monday. It was a ton of fun.

Pretty solid.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Aug 3, 2006 -> 02:16 AM) -Sign Kerry Wood to an incentive laden deal. I honestly have no problem with this as long as we'd only use him out of the bullpen.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Aug 2, 2006 -> 04:18 PM) Well, he had a better season last year than any before that, and now he has Thome in the lineup. That helps. His numbers from 03-05 were pretty consistant.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Aug 2, 2006 -> 04:16 PM) Well, I think part of the reason Crede is having such a monster year is because he's yet to sign a contract extension. I know he's said that he won't let Boras dictate whether he stays or goes, but he's still a Boras client. Those guys seem to have their best years right before signing a contract. Then why didn't he do this last season?

Happy bdays

Is someone really arguing that JD's option won't be picked up for next season?

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Aug 2, 2006 -> 01:51 AM) After about 3 our list is toast. Fields, Broadway, Sweeney in that order I assume.

Just use Brandon McCarthy and Brian Anderson.

A group of my close friends and I are starting to plan a cruise for winter break and it'll be my first one, so I really don't know where to start in planning this all. Basically I'd like to know: What's the best cruise line to go through? What should I expect to pay for the cruise/airfare? And to go along with that, where's the best place to find a cheap one? Should we book the cruise and airfare seperately or together? And any thing else you guys know would be much appreciated. Thanks for the help in advance

QUOTE(JimH @ Aug 1, 2006 -> 10:22 PM) Do you save Jenks for another nite and keep Riske in with the 3 run lead? Or do you go with Jenks? I say it's a save situation, go with Jenks. If they tack on another run, go with Riske if he's still available. Robert.

Tough play but one that needs to be made. QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Aug 1, 2006 -> 07:25 PM) Where is this from? DJ.

I hate you, Kalapse.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Aug 1, 2006 -> 06:26 PM) now we can't hit Santana or Liriano. Oh well. How do you know this? He has pitched 3 whole innings against us.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Aug 1, 2006 -> 06:12 PM) If it came down to Podsednik and Fields as my 2 leadoff options next season, I don't think I'd mind seeing Fields there. I think I would mind seeing Sweeney there right now, as Fields' numbers fit that spot a little better, if his numbers translate. Fields also has quite a few more steals than Sweeney (19/24 for Josh, 5/11 for Ryan this season). Having Fields lead off would be pretty freakin ugly imo. If he plays next season, I'd expect him to have an obp of about .330 with at least 180 k's. Josh will hit for some power right away if he gets up here, but I expect himt to have a rougher start than BA did, I really do.

QUOTE(zygoat @ Jul 31, 2006 -> 04:35 PM) olive perez could exel in the San Diego park (SBC i think) because the park is huge. He used to be dominant but i believe he was pissed that his team sucked. I think he will do very well wiht the padres. Petco.
