QUOTE(qwerty @ Jan 25, 2005 -> 11:10 AM) I agree, i was just wondering their reasoning for order of the rotation. Cool.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Jan 25, 2005 -> 11:02 AM) Line-up looks correct why not do the same with the rotation? I just don't think it's worth b****ing about. After April 15th, it won't matter. There is so much emphasis on who's number 2 .. or 3 .. or 4 .... and it really doesn't amount to a hill of beans.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Jan 25, 2005 -> 11:00 AM) Way i take it is they think contreras will start the second game of the year. That is why it matters. Who cares what they think?

QUOTE(qwerty @ Jan 25, 2005 -> 10:57 AM) What is with the rotation? What does the order matter?

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jan 25, 2005 -> 10:52 AM) so you are saying, he is a sure thing becuase you know for sure that he will be mediocre. So you think a sure thing is any player who doesnt leave a little mystery to his game. So we could pick up a crappy pitcher, and he would be a sure thing because we would be sure he will lose 12 games?? He's a sure thing because he will be at least mediocre. Garland still has a damn good future ahead of him. It's all a matter of when it kicks in for him.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Jan 25, 2005 -> 10:52 AM) Larkin will not get the starts he is looking for so he is not an option. I've rethought this. If we keep Harris, then Larkin is viable option for the Sox. If he won't agree to backup ... that's his problem. But he'd work for the Sox.

This dead horse has had enough of a beating. I'm out.

As a US president he faced impeachment. As a US citizen, he didn't face trial for perjury.

QUOTE(winodj @ Jan 25, 2005 -> 08:13 AM) Last time I checked, Bill Clinton went through Impeachment. I'd say that's being held accountable. He lied under oath. Did he face a perjury charge?

Well .... I tried. :rolly

Hava nagila!

QUOTE(Steff @ Jan 25, 2005 -> 07:46 AM) Someone emailed it to me. Likely story :rolly

What's the big deal about being REQUIRED to operate a motor vehicle on public streets in a safe manner?

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Jan 25, 2005 -> 08:05 AM) Acquiring Vazquez would add an extra $5 million to our payroll, I doubt JR is going to allow that. Exactly! So, it's a moot point. Let's not have this argument again.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Jan 25, 2005 -> 07:21 AM) Yeah I heard that too. Didn't he have a hernia problem or something? I really don't know what the problem was. I don't think I've ever heard it specified. I just know I've read that his lack of expected speed was due to injury.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Jan 25, 2005 -> 07:19 AM) This Detroit Columnist wants the Tiggies to give Maggs a guaranteed 4 years, 40 million; I read that column. It would be a huge gamble on the Tiger's part, but the writer has some good points that it would be a gamble worth taking .... for the Tigers. They are in a unique situation.

I think you'll see Timo have more range this year. He was on bad wheels last season.

QUOTE(EvilJester99 @ Jan 25, 2005 -> 07:14 AM) Yeah maybe it would be a mistake but it could also not be...can't always worry about what may be because it just might never be as well...hehe Whatever. Here's my opinion on it. If Garland is traded, Sox fans would regret it. Somewhere down the line, KW would be called a moron for having traded Garland. And that will be coming from a majority, not just me and Jeckle.

QUOTE(EvilJester99 @ Jan 25, 2005 -> 07:10 AM) I would hate to see the grade Jeckle would give KW IF he traded the "Great" Garland this year too even if it were for an upgrade.... :banghead I don't think Garland's great, by any means. But, I feel trading him would probably be a mistake in the long run.

4A is exactly the terminology I had in my head. Of course, qwerty may have put there at some point. Or .... I may have planted it in qwerty's head at some point.

QUOTE(The Bones @ Jan 24, 2005 -> 05:34 PM) I'm taking a class at ISU this semester called Text and Context: Baseball as Metaphor. I'm excited about this because I'm already learning more about the history of baseball and my professor has seen a lot of cool stuff over the years. I'm reading the book You Know Me Al right now, pretty good stuff. Anyone else got any good or bad things to say about their classes this semester yet? Report in to us on what is happening in this class, if you don't mind. It sounds like it could be interesting.

QUOTE(aboz56 @ Jan 24, 2005 -> 07:37 PM) I found it interesting that you posted a lot of names and didn't include mine... In all seriousness, good post but lay off the ass kissing for a while, would ya? I'm sure it was an unintentional oversight on Beastly's part.

The same kind of accountability Clinton was held to?

Very very very very impressive.

QUOTE(BHAMBARONS @ Jan 24, 2005 -> 10:08 PM) I am just wondering who will be cut from 40 man with the Iguchi signing Tom http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=29070 It's been discussed in that thread.
