QUOTE(TLAK @ Nov 18, 2005 -> 06:45 PM) I have Norm Crosby disease sometimes I resemble that remark!

This just makes ya feel good all over!

QUOTE(Wanne @ Nov 18, 2005 -> 05:01 PM) True...that's pretty much what I was thinkin too. As for what Al Lopez said...Pods' does get poor jumps in LF...and I know this sounds weird and shouldn't be the case...but it's easier to get good jumps in CF than the corners...you just have a better perspective for the ball hit, where the pitch is, the swing, etc...that's how I've always felt playing there anyway. You're correct. Not only is easier to get a good read on the ball, but Pods has more experience and is more comfortable in CF. Still, I'd rather him stay in LF.

I've heard that the Sox have no interest in bring back Carl. That's ok with me. But, yes, those trades for Everett did work out well. He was a significant part of this team. Regardless of how the players traded away do, this was beneficial to the Sox.

QUOTE(KevHead0881 @ Nov 18, 2005 -> 09:15 PM) Guess I heard wrong. If thats the case, thats awesome. Maybe we'll get to witness another Pablo Ozuna Mash Fest! FWIW, I remember it the same way.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Nov 18, 2005 -> 10:17 AM) Yes, that their fans think this is a solid move, I posted a quote that said it wasnt. Am I taking crazy Pills Yas, or are we totally off each others radar here? Totally! The fact that "their fans think" ... at all... is what I was saying "Since when?" about.

QUOTE(Steff @ Nov 18, 2005 -> 10:18 AM) I guess... you're acting like an ass lately. You know what. I'm just going to let this go.

QUOTE(Steff @ Nov 18, 2005 -> 10:17 AM) Murtha is a different animal I would say. He's beloved by both parties (was). Extremely respected (I would guess still is), and 37 years of experience under his belt. He signed off on going.. and now he's saying he made a mistake. He's being honest... go figure. I've got nothing against Murtha. He's quality from what I can tell about him.

QUOTE(Iwritecode @ Nov 18, 2005 -> 10:13 AM) Oh. The stuff that you can pay the kid next door $5 to do for you. $5? I'd like to have neighbor kids around like that.

QUOTE(Steff @ Nov 18, 2005 -> 10:14 AM) Your point is, I would guess, extremely exaggerated. Guess again, I guess.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Nov 18, 2005 -> 10:04 AM) Since I posted comments from their message board 2 posts before yours. Did you see what part of your post that I quoted?

QUOTE(Steff @ Nov 18, 2005 -> 10:11 AM) I don't care how "on edge" he is.. Talking s*** about Congressman Murtha is pretty effing stupid, and will cost him at the end of the day. My point was that anybody can take a shot at Bush, and it's all cool. He fights back and he "smear people".

QUOTE(Iwritecode @ Nov 18, 2005 -> 10:02 AM) I just heard a radio commercial yesterday where there's a company that will come to your house and put up Christmas lights for you. I had to sit and think about that one for a minute. On one hand it's one of those "why didn't I think of that" ideas. On the other hand, what do they do the other 10 months of the year??? Rake leaves. Shovel snow. Mow lawns. All the other stuff that people do that they wish they didn't have to. That'd be my guess.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Nov 18, 2005 -> 07:38 AM) Kap, here is one thing I am very disappointed in President Bush. I cannot remember an administration that smears people faster who disagree. Reagan was a master at not doing that, yet always getting his way. Bush Sr. was decent at it, Clinton somewhere in between. But this administration reacts like a rapid dog as soon as anyone dares to disagree. His first month in office led me to believe he would be one of the greatest at building bridges, but it hasn't worked out that way. I can't imagine what he would have done if the Dems had control of either house. If you were the target over every Democrat across the country, you'd go into attack mode too. The guy can't fart without some democratic jerk taking a pot shot at him. Yet, when he fires back, he "smears people". That's just a bias crock of s***.

QUOTE(sox4lifeinPA @ Nov 18, 2005 -> 09:17 AM) Colllllllllllllllllllldaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Pizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa the way she holds out the last syllable of every word drives me friggin' crazy. anyone else? Nope. Haven't watched more than 10 minutes of that show since it hit the air.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Nov 18, 2005 -> 09:40 AM) their fans think Since when?

You guys are thinking from a Sox payroll point of view. The Cubs payroll is a totally different situation. Eyre's been a good pitcher since he went on medication for ADD. From a Cub perspective this is a solid move.

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Nov 18, 2005 -> 03:50 AM) I'm not too sure about trading for Thome after reading this: http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/spor...407_mari17.html The Phillies want Felix Hernandez for Jim Thome? Okay. :headshake You can't blame them for giving it a shot.

QUOTE(SouthSide2004 @ Nov 18, 2005 -> 01:50 AM) Here are the facts regarding Levine. He is a pretty good reporter, but he is a huge asshole who hates the White Sox. I don't think people only rip him because of his reports. He's just not a good person. I'm sure a lot of the ripping he receives around here is well deserved. Just not in this case.

QUOTE(redandwhite @ Nov 18, 2005 -> 12:18 AM) it's hard to have a sense of humor with you when everything you say in my regards is negative. Predicting you would prefer Ortiz to win the MVP over ARod is not negative. It's common f***ing sense. You are Red Sox fan and Ortiz is Red Sox. Dude, you are thin skinned if you think I'm picking on you.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Nov 17, 2005 -> 11:47 PM) I recall it as a fact, not speculation that it was near completion. Either way it's not a very big deal. That's true, but Levine catches a lot of flack around here because of that incident. Seems a bit unfair to me.

I don't care what they say on the north side, the Sox World Series win put a lot of pressure on the Cubs. They will probably get Furcal because they are feeling the pressure. The Tribune Co doesn't want anything to disrupt their gold mine and the Sox winning has threatened to do that.

QUOTE(redandwhite @ Nov 17, 2005 -> 10:19 PM) get a sense of humor, gay-rod. How ironic.

QUOTE(redandwhite @ Nov 17, 2005 -> 09:02 AM) just as predictable as it was for you to make up an excuse of why Ortiz and Rodriguez were in the running to begin with. Oh hell. That was a "tongue in cheek" type remark. In fact, in a later post I agreed with someone that it didn't really make any sense. Get. Real.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Nov 17, 2005 -> 11:31 PM) It was on rotoworld and espn before he announced it. But to be honest with you i could care less about bruce levine and i don't have a way to prove it was. He is definitely not where i look for information since i rarely listen to the radio. It was on those sources prematurely. That's what I'm saying.
