Great goal by tunisia. Both of these teams have more midfield skill and creativity than the US>

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jun 14, 2006 -> 10:59 AM) He's only stolen like 3 bases this month, 0 in the last week. he needs to get on base to steal. Of course he is still one of the league leaders, but I guess that doesnt matter. QUOTE(chitownsportsfan @ Jun 14, 2006 -> 10:45 AM) Thank god he's not signed through next year. It's time to end the Pods experiment in LF. I hope you are kidding.

QUOTE(LVSoxFan @ Jun 14, 2006 -> 10:10 AM) I love Pods but agree that those catches could have been made. Dye made a bad misplay last night too. that was a pretty tough catch. Wilkerson had the same chance the day before and looked worse. Not a huge issue.

QUOTE(beautox @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 09:57 PM) Brian looked good at the plate, and even drew a walk, keep it going BA! RHP. Thats why.

BA + RHP = good at bats.

This may turn out to be a slugfest.

QUOTE(zach23 @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 04:07 PM) Let me know, there are always teams in our league looking for guys. We have 16 guys on our roster but we have only been getting 9 or 10 to shop up the past few games. We usually play a fall league where there are no win-loss records and the games are more like pick-up games but with umps. Is there more info on this?

I would love to join a competitive league next summer or the end of this summer. Its been a short hiatus and I would love to get back into it.

Man, I hate having to think about the food like this 1. Hot corned beef. 6 bucks for a meal. 2. Polish with 3. Dog with 4. brat 5. elotes 6. Funnel cake 7. super taco 8. Pizza 9. Steak pits 10.Steak sand. theres my top ten.

QUOTE(Greg The Bull Luzinski @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 02:29 PM) Heath, as long as we have a common enemy in the Cubs, you can always call the White Sox friends. Thanks for the info. I loved Cincinnati when I have been their on business in the past. This time, only leisure. Reds fans are generally good people too. They are my NL team for sure. You guys will love the park.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 02:04 PM) That was a long time ago when that was your SN right?? yessir.

can someone bump the old food thread?

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 01:40 PM) I'm willing to bet that at leats 50% of their passes were lateral or backwards. You can't score goals going towards your own goal. The problem I saw is when they were going backwards with their movement, there was almost no purpose other than to keep the ball away from the other team. If they were swinging the ball, or setting up some overlaps I would understand, but almost none of that happened.

Alot of good points have been brought up. But being someone who played soccer all their life until age 21, i noticed a severe disparity in the talent levels between the two teams. The US doesnt even appear to get good first touches on the ball. They also are extremely boring and predictable when it comes to their attacking. Their passed arent creative at all, and most of the time their touches are atrotious. I just dont think that we have the talent in this club that we need to succeed. It would almost be better to go with a younger team so at least physically we could sustain.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 01:22 PM) Hey thanks for the info, and welcome to Soxtalk. If there is anything we have in common, it is the hate for those babybears would you say that makes us babybearhaters?

QUOTE(thedoctor @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 01:09 PM) thanks for the info heath and welcome. i'll be there friday. i will second his suggestion of trying the chili. i think they sell gold star in the park, but skyline is my personal favorite. Gold star is meatier. For anyone who wants a great beer garden after the game, check out hofbrauhauss across the river in KY. Great great place. heres the website. http://www.hofbrauhausnewport.com/

Lets assume for a moment that some more of this griffey talk is true. Im not for it, nor do I want us to think about doing it, but what if it came true. How would you make the lineup? POds Gooch Thome Kong Dye Griffey AJP Crede Uribe

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ Jun 11, 2006 -> 03:49 PM) I think its totally disgraceful. I think the KKK is a low-rent, redneck bunch of idiots. I also think that despite their stupidity they have rights to free speech and free assembly. Its up to people who know better to counter their message with a more reasonable one. Unfortunately they are pefectly acting under the rights outlined by our constitution. There are many orgs who speak publically, and their message may not be what you want to hear. Unfortunatley, they have the right to voice their opinion, just as we have the right not to listen.

Anyone playing in the 25+ leagues around the area?

I will be there fri, and sat. So excited. Love cincy, and love the park. This will be my first time there wearing opposing team's gear.

QUOTE(GreatScott82 @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 10:29 AM) Im heading to sunday's game in Cinnci. This is my first time going there. What time would you guys recomend I leave sunday morning? its going to take you aroudn 5 hours to get there. I would recommend leaving some extra time.

QUOTE(bmags @ Jun 12, 2006 -> 05:55 PM) the kid who stood up to the blind eye of administration and the aforementioned dumbass athletes. Schools aren't farm leagues for sports, they are supposed to be a place of learning, one that was being corrupted by a bunch of duke lacrosse assholes. Duke lacrosse assholes? It was being corrupted by several athletes who were falsely accused of rape by a stripper? I dont even see how that makes sense? QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jun 12, 2006 -> 06:25 PM) Here's the real story behind this: This kid was a complete loser in school, didn't have any friends and just hated high school all together. So he decided to come out and b**** about the school. Everything he said happens at every single high school. Ding!

Myspace is for stalkers from what I see, that and people who dont have the ability to talk with other people face to face.
