I just purchased a 61" Samsung 1080p DLP HDTV , along with a Wii. I finally got a psp with a few games. I have had a sidekick LX for a few months now ( I have had almost every version of the sidekick since the 1st one came out in 2003) . I have had an Ipod nano for about a year and 1/2. My laptop is just a Dell lattitude d600 , it's ok for what I do for work. I used to do netflix and even tried blockbuster. I have little time now, with everything else going on in my life. Redbox works good for me a couple times a month for $1 . Besides going to the gym and sleeping, I am probably by one of these technology items 90% of the day. On a sidenote, It has crossed my mind that I might be exposed to a little too much technology. I hope it won't cause any future health risks or ramifications.

Overall I am Happy with the Game. 8 runs when it could have been 11-12 is pretty sweet. Not to mention against The Cy Young Winner.

f***ing horses***. Worst umpiring in a long time.

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Mar 31, 2008 -> 10:54 AM) Ready for the first rain-out due to bad MLB scheduling...check!

Living in a city without the game.... Check! Ordered MLB Extra innings yesterday... Check! Getting no work done at all today... Check!

QUOTE(sayitaintso @ Mar 29, 2008 -> 12:52 AM) was the billy koch trade good because we got rid of him? cause valdez is a AAAA player at his VERY BEST. exactly

Best Trades Ryan Meax for the Game winning home run of game 3 of the 2005 World Series.. I Mean... Geoff Blum. Thornton for Borchard Billy Koch for Wilson Valdez Kenny Lofton for Felix Diaz and Ryan Meax(see first trade listed) Fordyce and a couple prospects to the orioles for Harold Baines and Charles Johnson.

Just Awesome

The Big Heart

Best Case 90-92 Worst Case 70-72 Realistic 81-84

another thing to note. Besides leading the league in walks, Runs, OBP, Slugging,OPS and Extra Base hits. Frank was 6 points , 2 hrs and 10 RBis away from Triple Crown Status that year.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Mar 26, 2008 -> 08:48 PM) I think you're underestimating the flipping-outness of people. There are people who seem to be really angry with this organization. There are reports that guys like Noah and Deng have actually hired guys outside of the team to serve as coaches for them because they're not getting what they need from the team. Adding Hughes has cost Thabo minutes. Deng may very well be at the point where he wants out. The whole situation is turning in to a disaster. They don't have the minutes for people who want them and haven't done what they need to develop people, and it seems like it's all about to collapse. That's why trading 5 of them for a superstar is not a bad idea. It's better than letting the young players rot on the bench.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Mar 26, 2008 -> 08:13 PM) Compare it to this time last season. Cabrera >>> Uribe at SS. Quentin >>> Pods. Anderson has improved (better than Erstad / Pods hopefully). Bullpen is better. Vaz and Buehrle has re-estbalished themselves as a good 1-2 punch. But unfortunately there are still guys such as Uribe etc. who still have a starting job which they really shouldn't IMHO. I feel we are better than 07 of course. But how much better? I think we will have a similar season to 2004. Which is not a good thing when your GM is in 'Win Now' mode.

QUOTE(CanOfCorn @ Mar 26, 2008 -> 05:18 PM) I wonder if someone ever finished out the 1994 season...simulation style. You know, played the rest of the games and see who wins the series. That year could have saved the Expos, too, if I remember correctly, they had Pedro, Pee-Hands, Delino DeShields, Wetteland, Darrin Fletcher, Marquis Grissom, Larry Walker, Rondell White, Cliff Floyd, Wil Cordero...pretty good team at the time. Crap. yeah, they were stacked. I used to pick them on my Sega Genesis baseball games when not playing with the sox.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Mar 26, 2008 -> 07:54 PM) Do you think Paxson would part with the same pieces asked for in the Kobe deal now? he would be nuts not to trade the bulls 5 best assets for kobe. I came to the realization that it is a superstar league. ( with the exception of the Detroit Pistons) . Don't get me wrong, I think there is a lot of talent on the roster. But, our coaching staff is too inconsistent with minutes given out. How do they expect the team start winning on a consistent basis? Now the players (who are supposed to be high character guys btw) are quiting on the team. Everyone has flipped out on Boylan except for maybe Deng, Thabo and the new guys.

Is it wrong to hope for them to lose the rest of their games?

Rough year for the Huskers last year.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Mar 26, 2008 -> 01:06 PM) I really wish we could have seen that play out; who knows what those numbers would have looked like with almost 50 more games. keeping that average over 162 games.... 54 hrs (at the time it happened , would have been 6th best single season total of all time) 144 RBis 151 runs 156 Walks (at the time it happened , would have been tied for the 4th best single season total of all time)

QUOTE(Controlled Chaos @ Mar 26, 2008 -> 09:33 AM) Well maybe when they start winning you can jump back on. lol

wow Gooden with 31 and 16 tonight. Can someone please tell him the Bulls are supposed to start tanking ?

QUOTE(Steve9347 @ Mar 25, 2008 -> 11:42 AM) At least we have one guy on there. You can make an argument for Fields and Jenks(though, Krod is not on the list) . Also, not saying he should be in the top 50, but, Buehrle will still only be 34 at the end of 5 years. Not counting on it, however, In a perfect sox world Quientin and Alexei can jump into this type of discussion 1 year from now.

QUOTE(SoxAce @ Mar 25, 2008 -> 02:59 AM) Type in "White Sox message boards" on google. Watch the first website that pops up. /thread. "white sox message board is better and so is "white sox forum" Guess who ranks # 1? To fix that soxtalk needs a higher page rank. Page rank Comparison wsi 5 soxtalk 3 thats what needs to be worked on. Re-create the front page. Put articles up and submit every article to digg and reddit. If soxtalk receives 20 digs a day, that would double membership in the course of a year. Do you have a website with pagerank? Link Soxtalk to it.
