Milkman delivers

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Nov 11, 2009 -> 10:38 AM) I have strawberry blonde hair, and light freckles. If that makes me a ginger y'all can suck my nuts. My parents always told me not to play with fire.

QUOTE (Disco72 @ Nov 10, 2009 -> 11:44 PM) SOA tonight...just wow! What an episode...so many things going on...so many questions going forward. That was seriously good television. I thought it was sort of boring, but it's one of those necessary boring episodes which sets up the rest of the season.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Nov 8, 2009 -> 07:11 PM) Looks like now the Red Sox need a new SS.. Officially at least. I don't even recall him getting traded to the Red Sox. Shows how much I paid attention to baseball this season.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Nov 8, 2009 -> 01:17 PM) Has anyone seen the new Boondock Saints movie? I know one person who has seen it so far, and he's the type of guy to love those kinds of movies. I know he really liked the first one, but he called All Saints Day the worst movie he'd ever seen. Apparently it's the first movie he's ever walked out of, and he wonders how it even got made. I tend to trust this guy's taste in movies.

QUOTE (SoxFanForever @ Nov 7, 2009 -> 11:30 PM) Pretty solid card from what I watched. ****SPOILERS**** Gegard Mousasi is awesome. I love his fights. He looked good tonight. Shields was his usual boring self. After he realized he couldn't sub Miller he just did some LNP action for the rest of the fight. I think Miller is pretty fun and was hoping for him to catch Shields at some point. Fedor/Rogers was a good fight. Rogers looked like a threat during the first round. However, he had the same fate as the rest of Fedor's opponents. Man, that KO shot was so fast and brutal. Just like that, bam, it was over. The guy is simply amazing. He looks beatable and then does something crazy to win it. Like when he had him choked out, and Shields was saved by the bell?

QUOTE (SHIPPS @ Nov 7, 2009 -> 01:04 PM) I met her through one of my good buddys that I work with. She is 26 and she works as a database admin at at&t. So yes we are both admins. lol She is a conservative christian and is a five tool player as far as a prospect. Does that mean you're not getting any yet?

QUOTE (zenryan @ Nov 7, 2009 -> 01:25 AM) How is it entirely UCF's fault if their adidas reps gave them the ok for Jordan to wear his dad's shoes? Sorry, I meant between UCF and Jordan.

I agree that it is entirely UCF's fault, but I think most people in Jordan's position (after learning that Adidas will pull their sponsorship of the school) would just do what is best for his team and school.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Nov 6, 2009 -> 11:03 AM) I would flip the script and ask her why she hasn't internalized the fact that you hate Tyler Perry movies, and why she didn't tell her friends that when the suggestion was made resulting in you being in the awkward position of having to accept. Then again I'm kind of a dick. Instead of digging in or getting defensive, I counterattack. He can also politely remind her that he's not a fan of Tyler Perry, and use that to his advantage while still going.

There's a time to take a stand and a time to let it slide. As much as you may hate Tyler Perry, something like this is not where you want to make your stand. To me, this definitely seems like a power move. The chances that this girl remembers what you said are pretty good, and she's going to use this as a test to see if you will bend for her. If you go, you'll likely be rewarded and her friends will like you (considering you are friendly and all). If you make a stand with something this small, it'll be trouble eventually. I mean, it's just a few hours of your time. Concentrate on the benefits of sitting through it. Think of it as a weekday where your stomach seems a little upset, but you go to work anyway because you're saving your time off for a better time later. This is just my opinion, though.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Nov 5, 2009 -> 10:17 AM) If true it opens the door for a Polanco signing. I know I'm incredibly late on this, but that would make this move pretty good. I'm just wondering if we picked up a guy who only hits well against us. And might this make Dye our DH?

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Nov 4, 2009 -> 10:30 PM) All that's fine. But with all the whining about their payroll (not singling you out. I'm talking everybody in general), you would think they were going on their 9th straight title. I just find it annoying to continually complain about their payroll. They do what they do because they can. It's not against the rules. How many times just on this board has KW been referred to as 'cheap'? Yet we all hate the Yankees because they spend more than everybody else. This is just how baseball is. The Yankees win about once every four years. This is in over a century of play, so nobody should be surprised. It's just how the game is. We've been fortunate that it's taken them 10 years this time.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Nov 4, 2009 -> 09:09 PM) I thought I read that Matsui is either retiring or going back to Japan Really?

You know what, I just found a reason to like the Yankees winning it. Hideki Matsui. I really like that guy (want him to be our DH next year), and he doesn't have a ring yet.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Nov 4, 2009 -> 07:18 PM) this is what I have http://www.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.pro...oduct_Id=179211 It connects directly to your USB drive, you put a cd in your computer to program it, and program the password and you are off. No need for chips or anything else as long as you have a USB connection Ha, I started doing more research into it, and that was the exact web page I found. I was coming back to Soxtalk to ask if it was the right kind to get. Thanks.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Nov 4, 2009 -> 07:01 PM) make sure your aunt gives him her password if she has locked her signal. I bought my wireless adapter for 30 bucks and havent had any problems Wait, I just started looking them up, and they all seem to be chips of some kind. Are these chips supposed to be connected to a router, because this computer doesn't have a router. It's just a monitor and tower.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Nov 4, 2009 -> 06:58 PM) He just needs to be a wireless adapter which will pick up the signal. Get a USB one for 20 or 30 bucks, plug it in, follow the instructions, access the WIFI and your golden. Gracias.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Nov 4, 2009 -> 06:00 PM) Why do you guys think that? Pedro pitched pretty well in game 2... He's going to have to, because Petitte shut down Utley/Howard/Ibanez in game 3. The Phils need big games out of their righthanded bats tonight. Just a feeling I have.

OK, my younger brother still lives at home with our parents. My parents have no use for computers and no knowledge of them, but my brother wants to get the internet on our computer. Since my parents don't care about the internet, they have no desire to buy it, and my brother doesn't have money. My aunt lives directly next door to them and has wireless internet. So, here's my question. How do you get a regular desktop computer to pick up a wireless signal? Can you even do it? There is definitely connectivity in my parents' house from my aunt's house, and she doesn't care.

I think Pedro gets destroyed tonight.

QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Nov 4, 2009 -> 02:31 PM) Rush made my cut and ELO wasn't even close. Didn't mean to bring you down, Bruce! You're an evil woman and I hope you turn to stone. My dislike for you will burn like a fire on high all over the world until you get on the telephone line and take back your blasphemy. Otherwise, hold on tight because there's gonna be a showdown. (There's at least seven ELO references right there.)

QUOTE (Tex @ Nov 4, 2009 -> 02:09 PM) ELO is on my list and Rush just missed. They would both be on my list if I had remembered. I also tried to do mine as quickly as possible, with only the top 10 spots or so with my definite favorites.

QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Nov 4, 2009 -> 10:46 AM) Some of John's Double Fantasy stuff was intentionally anachronistic to begin with, harkening back to doo-wop days etc. So now, yeah, some of it is doubly-anachronistic with the 80s overproduction on top of the throwback musical cliches. Sort of like ELO stuff, but good. ELO is great, and this reminds me that I left them off of my list...Rush, too.

QUOTE (knightni @ Nov 3, 2009 -> 12:33 PM) If it's Carl, it's literally what he means. I meant like is it a poster of him playing some sport (I know people who have those because they were gifts from their high school) or something that he might have done by himself.

QUOTE (Tex @ Nov 3, 2009 -> 12:12 PM) OK, let me change to, I don't think a veteran player should have to have a cheerleader in his face if he doesn't want it. Give the guy some respect. A leader should have more than one approach based on who he is trying to lead. Perhaps there are some guys that need a kick, some a carrot, and some you should just stay away from. Perhaps we have too many one trick leaders in the club house. They also shouldn't have "cheerleaders" booted from the club if they don't like their "cheerleading," which I think was insinuated.
