QUOTE(Texsox @ Mar 15, 2005 -> 12:28 PM) You don't want that inferior northern oil, get the best, buy Texas Oil! At $55 a barrel, Texas is probably thinking about drilling again.

QUOTE(mreye @ Mar 15, 2005 -> 12:28 PM) Wait a minute. You included the Daytona 500 with all those other sports? I NEVER said anything about it being a sport. Just something people bet on.

Let's get the oil into the pipeline. We can use it.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Mar 15, 2005 -> 12:24 PM) Why do I feel like I am trapped in a bad Abbott and Costello imitation? Or The Three Stooges.... Dewey, Cheatum & Howe Attorneys at Law

Imagine that.

This has got to be the real deal. Who would stand to suffer financial consequenses more than a casino? Who wins Super Bowl XL? Well, the guy with the time machine would know. The World Series ... The Final Four ... Daytona 500 ... year after year. Think about it. You guys buying this?

QUOTE(mreye @ Mar 15, 2005 -> 12:13 PM) I don't think so on this one. $11 Billion! He'll get 20+. The sentence, maybe. Time served? I doubt it.

QUOTE(RibbieRubarb @ Mar 15, 2005 -> 12:12 PM) My Son is too young to do anything unnatural with his balls. WAIT, that didn't sound right!! That depends on your kid.

QUOTE(KipWellsFan @ Mar 15, 2005 -> 12:09 PM) Thanks No charge.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Mar 15, 2005 -> 12:06 PM) I think at some point during the season, everyone will picture what it would be like to have Vladdy in a White Sox uni... I'm sick today, so I get to see B-Mac. First time I'll actually get to sit down, no distractions, and watch the kid pitch. Lucky you!

QUOTE(KipWellsFan @ Mar 15, 2005 -> 12:06 PM) I'm kind of out of the loop these days. What condition is big Frank in and will he be ready for opening day? And if not why do I seem to remember that he's already played some this spring? Frank has not played. There was a box score that had him listed as having played in CF in, I think, the very first game. He wasn't even in camp and he damn sure wasn't in CF. Frank will not be ready for opening day. Maybe, just maybe, late April or early May.

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Mar 15, 2005 -> 12:02 PM) A League Of Their Own, plus it is one of the greatest films ever. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go give the wife a pickle tickle. LOL!!! You're excused.

A possible 85 years sentence. Now, let's see what he really ends up with. I'll wager he spends less than 10 years in prison. Probably less than 5.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Mar 15, 2005 -> 11:41 AM) KW is telling Oz to manage, I like that. KW is taking responsibility for the contracts, I like that. I love competition and if Ozzie believes Harris is the starter, I like the fact that KW has given OZ the green light to play a guy based on merit not paychecks. I read that quote and I thought, "Of course, that's the way it should be." But way too often it's not. That was something I kind of took for granted. But actually. it's something you RARELY hear from the front office, because they want to have their greasy mits on everything. Great post, Tex. It made me take notice and give it some thought.

QUOTE(mreye @ Mar 15, 2005 -> 11:30 AM) Watch a pitchers arm in slow motion throwing a curve ball. It's unnatural. Hell, pitching over the top or 3/4 is considered unnatural.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Mar 15, 2005 -> 11:25 AM) what's up with the missle smuggling? I just know that it was a sting, and 17 of 18 suspects are in custody.

Gotta love those blue state politics.

QUOTE(backman @ Mar 15, 2005 -> 11:20 AM) i heard something, did marrquette loose? I heard they got thumped. But I haven't checked on it.

QUOTE(SoxFan562004 @ Mar 15, 2005 -> 10:49 AM) I'm so glad to read stories like this. I hate when fans of womans basketball act like they could ever compete with men's/boy's teams. They are two different games, it doesn't make the woman's game any worse, it's just a fact What did you guys do? Just run them out of the gym or use physical play? Male chauvanist pig!

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Mar 15, 2005 -> 10:41 AM) Well, it's no INTEROCITER, but then again, what is these days? A flux capacitor?

QUOTE(mreye @ Mar 15, 2005 -> 10:34 AM) I don't agree. The moves he's made that have back fired were good at the time save for Todd Ritchie. The Wells move was brilliant. Shingo. Uribe. Garcia. On and on. This team is one big question mark. I'm generally an optimistic type Sox fan, and I am again this year. But, there are a lot of "ifs" that need to fall our way.

QUOTE(mreye @ Mar 15, 2005 -> 10:30 AM) Wow. A lot of pessimists. I don't think we should be down on Iguchi yet. Shingo sucked in ST last year too. I'm encouraged my KW's optimism and his confidence. I like his "tinkering." Oh, I can understand the pessimism. There are as many reasons to be pessimistic as there is for optimism.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Mar 15, 2005 -> 10:28 AM) I was watching a piece on Tommy John surgery last night. They were talking about how many teens and even younger kids are needing the procedure nowadays, some as young as 9 years old. This is mostly due to year round leagues which leads to overthrowing. Another reason is that more and more younger kids are throwing curve balls at a younger age. A Dr. on there said no one under the age of 19 should be throwing curves. Anyone have kids or coach little leagues? Not any more, but I always emphasized fastballs and change-ups. I wouldn't let my kids throw curves.

THe Washington DC post office on B Street has been closed indefinintely, and all 275 employees have been offered Cipro.

There has been a major bust of people trying to acquire and smuggle missiles and the like into the US. Also, a DC post office has been closed due to a possible anthrax scare. Keep an eye on the news as things are sketchy now.
