Middle Buffalo

QUOTE (Jake @ Aug 5, 2009 -> 04:53 PM) Is this real? You made my day with this post.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 3, 2009 -> 10:19 AM) I wish the schedule makers would just leave out the good teams. Oh bother Pooh, is that you?

I crapped out a Barbie shoe. Still pink after 20+ years..

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 30, 2009 -> 11:46 PM) Canseco now saying a Hall of Famer was on PEDs Hate to continue to feed the ego on this douche, but he's somehow became a saint lately. 7 HOF teammates of Canseco's.. Reggie Jackson Wade Boggs Don Sutton Nolan Ryan Rickey Henderson Rich Gossage Dennis Eckersley Since he's saying this now, ima go out on a limb and say it was Rickey Henderson but that's pure speculation on my part. Though Rickey would probably tell me that Rickey don't do steroids, Rickey is a clean player, and Rickey got all of Rickey's stats the natural way cause he's the greatest of all time. I swear that I heard Reggie Jackson was good friends with one of the steroid suppliers who was caught a few years ago. I tried to find the story, but couldn't find it. Of those seven players listed, the only ones I'd rule out are Sutton and Eck. I doubt Gossage and Boggs, but could be talked into them.

QUOTE (League @ Jul 31, 2009 -> 11:53 AM) Eh. Beckett has been mediocre in 2/4 of his years there, and Hanley could possibly be the best player in baseball. Imagine an infield of Youk-Pedroia-Hanley-Lowell. Sick. Didn't Lowell go to Boston in that trade?

QUOTE (JPN366 @ Jul 29, 2009 -> 09:11 PM) I don't know if your at that point yet, but the best advice I can give you is live within your means, budget your expenses, pay your bills on time, keep your credit card balances manageable and don't buy a car that costs more that what you make annually. That may be more than you're dealing with currently, but in the longterm, it'll help. More valuable advice: "Never get less than 12 hours sleep. Never play cards with a guy with the same first name as a city and never go near a lady with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Everything else is cream cheese." - Coach Bobby Finstock

Wise and Fields are supposed to help him out yet again.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 27, 2009 -> 02:09 PM) For some reason "The Rev" looks like Don Cooper from behind. I'm not sure why anyone would know what Don Cooper looks like from behind - or why they'd admit it.

QUOTE (santo=dorf @ Jul 22, 2009 -> 05:00 PM) I nominate anyone who uses only their first name, and if it's not their first name, it's weird. Brian, Jake, etc.... real creative. Afraid to call out Steff?

QUOTE (CanOfCorn @ Jul 22, 2009 -> 08:47 AM) I want to know how Middle Buffalo came up with that name. I like it...and I don't know why. I'll wait and see if anyone knows why before I answer. All right. 4 minutes is a long enough wait. Middle Buffalo is one of the names that the Indian Chief proposes as Peter's Indian name in the Grand Canyon episode of "The Brady Bunch." Peter's voice cracks with disgust when he hears it, and I've always thought it was a funny thing to randomly throw into a conversation. That also explains my avatar. Best I can tell, the Peter Brady pic is from the "porkchopsandapplesauce" episode - which is another thing we used to say way too much around my house growing up.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jul 20, 2009 -> 10:08 AM) I checked the box score and he three 77 pitches and 56 or so were for strikes . I hate when box scores aren't specific about game stats.

The Karate Kid - I watch it every time I stumble upon it until I have something important to do. There's rarely anything more important than The Karate Kid.

QUOTE (Tex @ Jul 17, 2009 -> 08:09 AM) Are there any other laws besides rape that drunk people should be exempt from? Yeah, that's exactly what I said.

I believe Albert Pujols takes PEDs, and I can't understand how the national media has so quickly signed off on his numbers as legit. Didn't we just go through this with ARod? Sure, he's a nice guy, but he's putting up power numbers that have rarely been seen in baseball history.

QUOTE (Soxy @ Jul 16, 2009 -> 04:33 AM) Here's an easy fix: don't f*** drunk girls. Well, I'm kind of making the assumption that both people would have been drinking, and the following day one (or both) of them regret what happened. I'm sure you'd agree that drinking leads to lowered inhibitions and generally poor judgement. Saying "don't f*** drunk girls" puts all of the responsibility of good judgement on the male - a male who' likely been drinking.

QUOTE (La Marr Hoyt HOF @ Jul 15, 2009 -> 03:15 PM) Was very cool to see the President in a Sox jacket ... that said, and I'm not questioning his legitimacy as a Sox fan, but during the Costas interview referring to the old park as Kominsky Park? Anyone else catch that? That was a pretty common mispronunciation of Comiskey when I was growing up - and he called it Cominsky Field. Ugh. I always hated hearing kids call it Cominskey. It's like shopping at "Jewels".

I took a sex-ed class in college and felt the wrath of an angry female when I expressed the following opinion: I think most girls who say they've been "date raped" really just got drunk and did something they regretted the following day. I'm not saying date rape doesn't happen, but I think it's incredibly unfair to a guy who hooks up with a girl who's had too much to drink that he might later be accused of rape because the girl wasn't using her best judgement. And, no, I've never been accused of this, nor do I know anyone who has been accused.

QUOTE (dasox24 @ Jul 14, 2009 -> 09:34 PM) So I just had a pretty hateful statement written until I realized I'm drunk as s*** and don't need to be posting right now. I had 8 beers in 6 hours tonight and drove home fine, but according to the law, I'm pretty sure I would have blown over a .08, which means I legally drove drunk tonight even though I was fine. Huh?

QUOTE (EvilJester99 @ Jul 14, 2009 -> 05:46 PM) That was awesome to see him in his Sox jacket... not to mention he didn't make himself look bad on the first pitch!! Well, that wasn't exactly the most impressive pitch I've seen, but being Obama, I'm sure he threw his "change."

I was on dahl.com yesterday, and he has some videos and articles on his site about Disco Demolition. Pretty cool stuff. http://dahl.com/dd30/

QUOTE (CanOfCorn @ Jul 10, 2009 -> 07:45 AM) Who do you think you are? Sting? Bono? Cher? Madonna? Liberace?

I'm pretty sure this is mine. It was in a thread about Kittle's book where Kittle said some bad things about Bonds as a teammate. http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?sh...=31571&st=0 "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." Well, my kid's not too interested in baseball. Must be Paulie's fault.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jun 14, 2009 -> 08:35 AM) I didn't have a problem with the chants. I think calling Miller Park, US Cellular North, is disrespectful to the Brewers organization. I would hate if any fan base did that to their opponents park. I feel the same way. I hate hearing Cub fans refer to Miller Park as "Wrigley North." It's so obnoxious. I feel the same way about all of the Red Sox Nation stuff. Too many fans are fans of the fans of teams, rather than of the teams they profess to follow. Sadly, the media have bought into this crap and there's no escaping it now. Now we have the Red Sox Nation and the notion that Cub fans have always filled up the park and loyally followed their beloved Cubbies.

QUOTE (soxfan3530 @ Jun 11, 2009 -> 08:42 AM) P.S. taillgating should be awesome. if you see a large group of sox fans blasting some wilson phillips and go west, that would be us! I just did a quick search of the internets, and this phrase has never before been uttered.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 22, 2009 -> 09:32 PM) I live in Chicago and have that problem when they are on WCIU. When it was Hawk and DJ, the sound was excellent. Unfortunately.
