There's also a 'velocity' section, they may be saving him for there

we sooo need another hitter, come sooner waiver deals!

Sox for sure. I do however, really like my dual tuner HD DVR

Much more saner than Dan Rather RIP

Weird story. I think from Soxnet, I got there from some guy who worked at a rock radio station that had an AIM name. I was randomly iming people 'go sox' after or during a game years ago, and the radio station screen name answered and was a diehard sox fan, which was cool, and I think he said he was the owner or his friend was

6 pm already? Let's pump this chump!

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Aug 4, 2005 -> 10:23 PM) Some kind of weak steroid and I heard (for all of you that care so much about little details on a message board. I doubt Peppers or his agent are reading this board) he was a pothead, possibly even stronger narcotics. LOL, I think you just described the majority of the NFL, especially with the pothead/narcotic thing. I'm sure those are also widely used in MLB (we don't need the NBA lesson on this subject), well speed/greenies are widely used, and pot is just used by a lot of people overall (90% of my high school, but not me ), and there have been rumors that Buerhle and Garland are big potheads, but I don't know, from my experiences, it could be anyone, may not be those who would be obvious candidates, but may be those you don't expect

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Aug 4, 2005 -> 09:25 AM) 2. Do you think there is steroid usage in the NBA? Clearly, current players are a lot bigger than in the old days. Plus bulking up a 6 foot 10 inch frame seems like it would be tougher to do than your what your average MLB player juicer is trying to do. Do they test for it in the NBA? I'd say there's a misperception of steroids in baseball that doesn't get followed in basketball, but it's completely wrong to think that there's no use in the NBA for that. Steroids won't help you put the bat on the ball/or give you the knowledge of where to place a pitch (it does help if you already can put the bat on the ball, but we don't even know how much) any better than an NBA player would be helped by putting the ball in the hoop, but I think it can be extremely helpful for a basketball player. I'm no doctor, but steroids give you energy, more stamina to workout longer, helping you to build muscle, making you faster and stronger, giving you an edge over anyone who does it clean or with just supplements. This is where it comes in in sports, helping athletes with stamina, which is big in the NBA, where players have to stay standing and keep running for 48 minutes. I'd say it's also extremely helpful for the big men, who need to get position, which is obviously helped if you work out more and get bigger. I don't think there's NBA players that look 'inflated' like Canseco persay, but I've learned that doesn't always show, like with Raffy, and you can take things to take that effect off that makes it obvious. So I'd say they give an advantage in every sport, the most obvious being for football, mainly for linemen, but for everyone when you think about it. The NBA had a very weak policy. Congress tore them apart on it, I think only rookies were tested, and the whole process and punishments were very weak, and they promised to strengthen it in the new CBA. Stern's argument was that steroids weren't used or needed in basketball, but for the reasons I just stated, I call BS.

Well that sucked

I'm a huge Sox fan, have been for life, and I have been a big KW fan, but if Thomas is wearing another uniform next year, it will be a direct slap in the face to me and I may have to reconsider my allegiances. I may have not been around too long, but I have never seen such a great player (great doesn't describe it, in fact there's no word that does) disrespected so much in his own city, especially for one that did not deserve it. The White Sox owe it to Frank to keep him here no matter the cost.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Aug 5, 2005 -> 06:21 PM) I really wonder if he saw his 1 home run and .247 average in May and decided he needed some help. According to ESPN, since early May he's been hitting 1 home run every 14 at bats, which qualifies as the fastest rate in his career. Giambi had an even worse start to the season...and suddenly has kicked it up over the last 2 months. Or, you have to wonder if him or every player in the league isn't using Human Growth Hormone, which work better than anabolic steroids and are undetectable by this policy because you'd need a blood test to detect it, the MLB policy is crap, from the commishioner, to the punishments, to the testing process itself!

I didn't get him using the same pitchers as the night before, with a day game after a night game, especially Marte for extended time, who already has control issues. Where is Jenks?

QUOTE(3E8 @ Aug 5, 2005 -> 11:29 AM) On my way to lunch today, Dan Patrick said another large fish has been fried, and MLB is just waiting to release information. I have no clue how credible he is. Hmmm, it starts to get exciting at this point, as long as it's not one of our players. It makes you wonder though, if Patrick has this 'info' or even knows who it is, it'd be all over ESPNEWS right now, should be interesting to see, hope it's not one of his stupid fake radio skits. I hope it doesn't take the months of time it took for Palmeiro's info to be released!

This is one of the worst threads I've ever seen

QUOTE(Iwritecode @ Aug 5, 2005 -> 09:57 AM) I very rarely write out a check. I have a few bills (including one credit card that I hate) that can't be paid online. Mostly gas, electric, water... Is it weird that I can walk into a store and pay a credit card bill with my debit card? There is a Sears store near me that accepts Discover payments. So I'll go in, they swipe my Discover card, then they swipe my debit card. I've always thought that was kinda crazy... Your sig gave me a headache

They don't care, you can go whereever you want

When starting off, I thought it was lame, but a thumbs up, pretty funny

Only for my 2 credit card bills. And yes, they are White Sox checks! The debit card scares the crap out of me, I try to resist using it, I intentionally messed up my ATM code and reset it so I couldn't take money out (okay, I just forgot one number and messed it up, but it sounds like a better story if I say I did it intentionally)

It's not my poll, but I'm on that poll...

I hope your happy, Frank read your post, threw up, got disoriented, tripped over his pinball machine, and refractured the leg and is now out for the season You son of a b****

QUOTE(KevHead0881 @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 11:32 AM) I think he's overestimating his celebrity. I doubt anyone would know who the f*** he is. HAHAHA, now this is post of the year material, it's funny because it's true!

ZZzzzzZZZZz...What a horrible interview

No more Red Sox, GAWDDDD!
