Hats off to Joe Morgan
Joe Morgan is a dick. As for ESPN, sure they don't give CWS enough credit or airtime. Here's what I do. If Baseball Tonight starts at 8pm, I turn it on at 8:40 for Sox highlights. Same way for Sports Center. That leaves more time for me to watch Stuart Scott on "Dream Job," "Stump the Schwab," "Teammates," MNF preview, and jogging on his treadmill with that tool Chris "My Schtick Isn't Tired At All" Berman on ESPN2. :sleep Something ironic about Stu (the worst ESPN anchor) giving pointers to Dream Job contestants.

Ticket Master Codes
QUOTE(GreatScott82 @ May 3, 2005 -> 05:48 AM) would you need ID going into the stadium that your a libraian, season ticket holder for the Bulls, mail-man exe? Or can you just buy the tickets and everything is fine after that? Seems suspicous The firearms will suffice as proof that you work for the postal service.

Dan McNeil's Contract Situation
QUOTE(hammerhead johnson @ May 1, 2005 -> 12:19 PM) And yet, you project that Boers and Bernstein will get broken up? If you're basing it purely on the strength of Boers and McNeil having experience together, that would be pretty bad. I hope that you're not thinking along those lines. I've been listening to the Score daily since 1992 when I was a freshman in high school, and nobody can tell me that there has been a better show that B & B. The original Monsters/Heavy Fuel Crew line-ups were way better than anything they have on the "snore" now. MJH is really solid on am1000. B&B tend to get a little too morning zoo-ish with their uncontrollable laughter at semi-funny things.

42 game theory
QUOTE(RockRaines @ Apr 26, 2005 -> 02:38 PM) What the hell are you talking about, UH OH, byebye I like "Uh oh, Bye bye" WAAAYYYYYY more than when DJ chimes in on Hawk's HR call. The simultaneous "YESSSS!" sickens me.
-
42 game theory
Hawk has alot of dead air to fill (since DJ lacks thoughts in general, and pertinent thoughts in particular). Let's give him a break on the repetitiveness of some of his statements.

Twins' new stadium
QUOTE(RockRaines @ Apr 26, 2005 -> 08:32 AM) Molding their area after wrigleyville huh?? Makes me hate them even more. It's a great idea to have parking similar to Wrigleyville. Park in some alley and hope your car hasn't been used as a urinal for 3 hours. Great idea.

Twins' new stadium
I'd vote for Tampa's stadium as the worst. I can't even watch the tv when the sox play there.

Question about Hawk
Hawk is a union guy. 10 minute break for every 4 hours worked. He hates when MB pitches.

Mike North in the morning
The Score really messed up when they blew up the old teams (North & Jigs - McNeil & Boers). I know it's been some time, but that was 8 hours of solid, funny sports talk. I used to listen to both shows beginning to end (after listening to Johnny B's show) while I worked.

Redskins interested in Bears #4 pick
I do this trade in a heartbeat. The Bears need more than just one player. I don't know that I see McCaskey paying two first round bonuses, though. Let's hope they get a defensive wing.

The Mendoza Line...
Nice fight. It's April. Relax. I think this thread is just an excuse for you guys to have "make-up sex" later.

Game Thread 4-21 Sox .vs. Detoilet
Hawk is clearly looking forward to his 6th inning potty break.

D.J.s Home Run Call

What was No.1 on the day you were born?
QUOTE(qwerty @ Apr 14, 2005 -> 10:59 PM) Videos were so bad then. Half the time they would just be sitting in a white room or on a stage playing their song. Wtf is with that? I mean how cheesy does it get. I would rather not waste the money on that garbage if i were them. "The first time ever I saw your face" Roberta Flack - May 16, 1972. Perfectly worthy of being butchered on American Idol. What's really sad about the old videos is that I used to watch them and try to record the songs I liked by holding a little radio up to the tv and pressing record. Poor, poor quality. Kids today have it made.

Sox fans will love this
QUOTE(YASNY @ Apr 5, 2005 -> 11:26 PM) Whatever. It's asinine to throw out unfounded speculation and accusations. For awhile I felt the same, but then I thought that the players' silence and unwillingness to step up and get steroids out of the game puts every player under a cloud of suspicion. They brought this on themselves. Take someone like Luis Gonzalez. Nicest guy in the world. 57 home runs all of a sudden in 2001. Cashes in with big check. Did he? Didn't he? We may never know. Seems kind of fishy, though. Then you see some of the BALCO names - Randy Velarde and Marvin Bernard. Not big power hitters. Most of the minor leaguers named yesterday. Not big time prospects. Makes it seem as if Caminiti and Canseco are closer to telling the truth than Schilling, et al.

Sox fans will love this
QUOTE(qwerty @ Apr 5, 2005 -> 11:12 PM) The lowest his fast ball ever was in is the low 90's. But i do agree with that speculation. Did you get a peek at Ivan "Slim" Rodrigues? No need to speculate there.

Sox fans will love this
A guy on the radio here in AZ speculated that Koch was a steroid user, and that's why his velocity fell from mid 90s to high 80s. Might explain his lack of production lately.

Whatever happened to...?
QUOTE(Texsox @ Apr 3, 2005 -> 07:58 PM) Dibble didn't have his contract renewed and is hanging out with his newest wife. He still has all that Sox money from his last contract I REALLY have trouble listening to Dan Patrick. Seems like a big phony. It wasn't much better with Dibble (because Dibble hardly talked - and when he did he was just a big apologist for athletes), but at least there was some kind of conversation going on.

Ron Kittle's Book and Barry Bonds
I generally don't like when people complain about someone not signing autographs, but I have to. I was at a Sox spring game this year, and after the game (it was at Oakland's home stadium) there were maybe 30 Sox fans waiting for the players next to the bus. Konerko walked out (full uniform - didn't play in the game) and got on the bus without even glancing at the fans. He was, maybe, the fifth guy out, so he had to wait on the bus for everyone who played to shower, etc. Totally "big-timed" the fans. I wasn't looking for autographs, just trying to get my 5 year interested in baseball. He got a few from minor leaguers, so it didn't really make a difference, but I just kind of thought PK was a jerk. Sorry, had to vent.
-
Whatever happened to...?
I listen to alot of talk radio, but I must have been absent the days that Howard Stern explained why KC is no longer on his show. Also, where's Dibble on the Dan Patrick show? Anyone know?

Creatine
QUOTE(shagar69 @ Apr 3, 2005 -> 06:17 PM) Since i came to college this year, i have been working out a lot, almost everyday. and recently i began thinking about using creatine to supplement my workouts. I have read that it is safe and widely used. Do any of you guys use creatine and if so what is the best brand and is it safe? I'm not here to talk about the past.

I hope that fat load DWells gets his ass kicked tonight. He stole from the Sox for a year. Dick.
