Have fun trying to break your dad's Cinemax code tonight. thanks... haha, You always seem to resort to talking about me doing something to "daddy's" things.. Learn about me before you attempt to talk s*** about me..

QUOTE(Steve9347 @ Aug 21, 2005 -> 02:03 AM) Wow, just wow. This coming from the 12-year old in daddy's basement. I'm a college graduate, (although, I'm the first to admit that does not mean much) but I'd be willing to bet that's more e-d-u-c-a-t-i-o-n than yourself. wow let's argue about who is more educated... haha :headshake

http://www.sportsline.com/nfl/story/8756958 DENVER -- San Francisco 49ers offensive lineman Thomas Herrion collapsed in the locker room and died Sunday morning, shortly after the 49ers played the Denver Broncos in a preseason game. He was 23. Herrion, a 6-foot-3, 310-pound guard, was on the field for San Francisco's 14-play, 91-yard drive that ended with a touchdown with two seconds left. Players had finished listening to coach Mike Nolan address them in a postgame meeting when Herrion collapsed. Medics administered CPR on him and took him to an ambulance that rushed him to a nearby hospital. About three hours later, 49ers spokesman Aaron Salkin confirmed that Herrion had been pronounced dead. The cause of death was not immediately known. "This is a colossal tragedy for the 49ers and the entire NFL community," Salkin said. "We still do not know all the details. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Herrion family." The death comes a little more than four years after offensive lineman Korey Stringer of the Minnesota Vikings died of heatstroke during a training camp practice on a day during which the heat index soared to 110. Since Stringer's death, NFL teams have increased their efforts to teach players about hydration and how to manage the heat. They have been experimenting with sensors to measure players' core body temperatures, although those by themselves wouldn't be able to prevent a heat-related death. Temperatures were in the mid-60s with 50 percent humidity Saturday night in Denver, although experts say heatstroke can occur even in cool conditions. After the game, Nolan said he had no comments about San Francisco's 26-21 loss to the Broncos. "There are more important things on our mind than the game," he said. "Right now, our thoughts and prayers are with Thomas Herrion." Shortly after that statement, the Niners dressed and boarded buses that took them to the Denver airport for their flight back to California. Salkin said coaches notified players of the tragedy at the airport. "We didn't see anything happen," Niners defensive lineman Marques Douglas said. "I sat by my locker and prayed for him." Herrion, a first-year player with the 49ers, played college ball at Utah and spent part of last season on the San Francisco and Dallas practice squads. He also played this season with the Hamburg Sea Dogs of NFL Europe. Stringer's death was thought to be the first of its kind in the NFL. In 1979, St. Louis Cardinals tight end J.V. Cain died of a heart attack during training camp. Chuck Hughes, a wide receiver for the Detroit Lions, died of a heart attack Oct. 24, 1972, during a game in Detroit against the Chicago Bears. In April, Arena Football League player Al Lucas of the Los Angeles Avengers died of a spinal-cord injury he endured while making a tackle. Very sad... , It's always bad to hear these types of things

QUOTE(Steve9347 @ Aug 21, 2005 -> 01:54 AM) the picture is, you make no sense, and daddy should have shut off his computer before going to bed and letting you take over. the picture is you make no sense??? Talk about not making any sense.. Geez buddy, it's called an e-d-u-c-a-t-i-o-n... I think you should consider attempting to get one..

QUOTE(Steve9347 @ Aug 21, 2005 -> 01:27 AM) I'm starting to think that you don't actually watch these games. Our pitching has continued to be rock solid, but our offense has been woefull... like, record-books bad, over the last month. If you had actually seen some of these games, maybe you would realize how much it sucks to be at the game, and when the White Sox are down 3-1 in the fourth inning, that game is already over. Yes, I'm happy we're in first, but guess what... a hot start to the season does not a whole season make... as much as you want it to. nah I dont watch any games... I'm blind!!! Are you retarded? It's called a slump.. I have been to a few games if you can read.. If you noticed we are still up 8.5 and a few wins can get us back on track.. Wow, why don't you just give up... Go to the northside where you belong.. :finger

QUOTE(Steve9347 @ Aug 21, 2005 -> 01:25 AM) you = :sleep oooooooooh you = and :puke and wait... .. (you are on the right) (right side is you again) get the picture?

QUOTE(Steve9347 @ Aug 21, 2005 -> 01:43 AM) Or, get really, really, really, really, really, really f***ing creative, and turn down the volume, and turn up Rooney and Farmer... and if you have a problem with Hawk, Rooney, and Farmer, then go be a Cubs fan. I actually did that today when the game was on FOX.. God I cannot stand those announcers or any fox ones.. SO the radio was good except we knew what was going to happen on TV because the radio was ahead by a few seconds...

QUOTE(Steve9347 @ Aug 21, 2005 -> 01:09 AM) Genius s s s s s. Sorry, I don't buy it. We couldn't hit Shawn Chacon hard. We didn't make hard outs. This team swings at more bad pitches than any in memory. If they make the playoffs, I'll be happy, at this point. This team lacks a guy who can get the job done on the offensive side.

QUOTE(beck72 @ Aug 20, 2005 -> 05:17 PM) Even with the horrible play of late, the sox have me more encouraged that they'll get it out of their system before the playoffs start and be ready for October. Sure, there are the doubters who worry the Indians and Twins may yet overtake the sox. But IMO, the sox pitching is strong enough that the offense will score enough runs to keep the AL Central teams at bay. today was a prime example of why the sox should be OK. Before, when the sox couldn't buy a hit or get on base by standing on the plate, I wasn't so sure. But they had the scoring chances, had guys on base. They execute, they win. It didn't happen today. Yet even at their worst, they still were in the ballgame. Up and down the lineup, most of the guys are at their obsolute worst hitting wise--avg, OBP, SLG, situational hitting, working pitchers. They can't get any worse if they tried. This collective funk will pass. All it takes is one game to get over it. It's not like in years past where you'd feel the sox were overmatched, and unable to mount a serious threat against even weak teams. Against possible playoff opponents who've been playing good ball, the sox, at their obsloute worst, have been in the games. They get back to playing the unselfish team game, working pitchers, playing solid defense, they'll be ready for the playoffs.

QUOTE(Steve9347 @ Aug 21, 2005 -> 12:23 AM) If the White Sox play one more week like they just did, its going to be a 3 game lead. Holy s***, we might just f***ing blow this thing. Does anyone have confidence? god damnit.. :banghead

QUOTE(robinventura23 @ Aug 20, 2005 -> 10:32 PM) But the Royals probably have a better offense. :puke :headshake :headshake :headshake :headshake :headshake :headshake :headshake :headshake :headshake

I enjoy hearing Hawk's stories and just about every thing he says. If you don't want to listen the I'm sure most of today's televisions have a button that says "MUTE" on it. Deal with it and stfu.. He is part of the team...

Scotty P?? NO WAY!! Damn you Canseco!

QUOTE(effectivelywild @ Aug 20, 2005 -> 01:37 AM) Honestly, most of my white sox fan friends think that Hawk is almost single-handedly detroying the fan base. Television is crucial to developing fans. Hawk can be just painful to listen to sometimes. Honestly, I could do a better job. Let me guess.. You don't have any friends.. or they aren't humans...

I hope this chair kills me... or how about this hammer.. maybe this punch will kill me sorry, guess im not that funny.. :headshake :puke

great great article... he is definitely right

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Aug 18, 2005 -> 11:01 PM) Just thought I'd share two of my favorite steroid cases of all time. One was suspended for steroids the other was never proven but it reeks of roids not to mention the fact that it has been widely speculated that he used. Brady Anderson... ___HR_SLG% '92: 21 .449 '93: 13 .425 -8 HR '94: 12 .419 -1 HR '95: 16 .444 +4 HR '96: 50 .637 +34 HR '97: 18 .469 -32 HR '98: 18 .420 NC '99: 24 .477 +6 HR '00: 19 .421 -5 HR '01: 8 .300 '02: 1 .250 A 34 HR spike and a .193 SLG% spike. A small little leadoff hitter for the Baltimore Orioles suddenly hits 50 HRs and suddenly becomes this: but my favorite.... Why would a WR weigh nearly 260 pounds? David Boston was suspended for steroid use on Dec. 13, 2004. The guy was always pretty big dating back to his days with the Buckeyes but a sudden weight gain and muscle gain once he reached the Chargers was quite alarming. Suddenly he was giant and bulky with hardly the speed he used to have. Steroids in essence ruined his career. shhhhh he's on my fantasy team this year..

QUOTE(Joe Mac @ Aug 18, 2005 -> 11:23 PM) You guys can find it here yeah I read that part of the book... Barry Bonds is an asshole... We all know that. , It's a shame that being an asshole and steroids can't keep him out of the hall.
