Milkman delivers

This guy might've just earned himself a spot in the Hall of Fame with a few more seasons of winning. I love Mark Buehrle. I was driving back to work from a meeting at another location, but decided to stop at home on the way back to catch the final inning. So happy that I did. P.S. - I bumped my own thread to apologize to Wise.

I swear on everything, I will never speak a bad word about Dewayne Wise again in my life. Ban me if I do. Please delete this thread.

QUOTE (G&T @ Jul 23, 2009 -> 05:32 AM) Atlanta is 5.5 games out of first. We will see what happens if they are actually in contention down the stretch. Exactly. I fully expect him to collapse when any amount of pressure is applied.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jul 23, 2009 -> 07:21 AM) Lame by me. Yeah, that sucked.

I, for one, think BigEdWalsh is the coolest poster on this site.

Happy birthday, TheBigHurt. Very solid start by Torres. And you just saw our eventual new closer tonight. Trade Jenks while you can still get a pretty good haul for him because we have his replacement already.

Washed-up acquisition, here we come!

Mine used to be popular.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jul 22, 2009 -> 08:02 AM) I was dragged to the Billy Joel/Elton John concert last night... but it was quite enjoyable. Dragged? I'd love to go to that.

QUOTE (SuperSteve @ Jul 21, 2009 -> 09:48 PM) I personally really like her. Realness is a part of it. She's a normal girl pretty much. Plus I've seen her for how long on ESPN now. I'd rather see her naked than pretty much any of those porno chicks. But, would you rather see Erin Andrews just walking around topless or a porno chick getting ____ed by 3 or 4 ____s while ____ing her ____ with a ____?

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 21, 2009 -> 04:24 PM) Well, the service is pretty good. Is it like directly across the street?

Oh, I thought you were talking about a restaurant.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 21, 2009 -> 04:06 PM) It was a slightly above average play that about 22-25 starting MLB centerfielders would/should also have made. Let's not overstate it. None of which are currently on the White Sox.

QUOTE (rangercal @ Jul 21, 2009 -> 02:05 PM) and you would be wrong. A healthy tcq is a top 10-20 player in all of baseball. Haha, well you can tell me when that happens, then. The guy puts in part of a season, and he's suddenly the best player on our team over guys who have consistently put in their time and produced.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jul 21, 2009 -> 03:26 PM) Put it on the ticket exchange here, or put it on stubhub. Even craigslist is an option for you. I bet you get a bunch of hits on craigslist immediately, just make sure you ask for cash only They were 80 bucks. How much do you think I should ask for?

QUOTE (Cali @ Jul 21, 2009 -> 01:27 PM) Couple thoughts on the Lollapalooza thing: 1. I Hate Festivals. The sound sucks, it's hot and sweaty. Give me indoor shows any day of the week. 2. When I do go, it's never for the discover new bands, experience thing. Not my bag. 3. I would never go to a festival unless there was already 5+ bands I want to see. Other wise it's a huge waste of money. If it's only one band (like Beastie Boys) I would juts wait till a headlining tour, where they will be playing indoors, with a full set, and where you won't be sun burnt, and tired from standing on your feet all day. Thank you. The f***ing Yeah Yeah Yeahs. I can't believe I have to tell my friends that that's who the replacement is. QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 21, 2009 -> 01:31 PM) Then I better watch out walking in dark alleys. He may decide to pounce on me with a poorly fashioned cane. I'm slightly less angry now.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 21, 2009 -> 01:22 PM) Somewhere in the North East milkman is punching a wall... Yeah Yeah Yeahs replace Beastie Boys at Lolla I actually live in Chicago again. The Yeah Yeah Yeahs? Wow, that is a band roughly equivalent to the Beastie Boys? I want to punch someone in the face. Kyyle, where do I sell these tickets and how? Does anyone on this site want tickets to a terrible day of music plus Tool?

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 21, 2009 -> 01:57 PM) Me too, I am a regular at xindy's nearby........ Expound. And SHIPPS, you got into my head. I had to go get a breaded steak from them for lunch.

QUOTE (rangercal @ Jul 21, 2009 -> 07:52 AM) This is all I care about. The team just received it's best player, yet most of this thread consists of people arguing which is better between piss and s***. Best player? Based on less than one season of baseball? Our best player is Dye, no doubt. Arguments can even be made for Thome and Konerko.

Is Torres someone we drafted, or did he come via trade? Was he known before this season, outside of the few posters on here that follow the minors very closely?

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jul 20, 2009 -> 11:18 PM) Only one person inquired and he did not leave disappointed. I may have asked, but it's not surprise sex if you have to ask.

QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ Jul 21, 2009 -> 01:26 AM) I understand where you're coming from but the number of people who buy tickets for just one band are outnumbered by people who are going just for the experience. That & they're looking to discover new music & just hang out for the most part. That's where we disagree.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jul 21, 2009 -> 09:57 AM) Meh. Not worth the hype. They should have denied it was her and moved on, especially since it's been around for 4 months already. Instead they created a firestorm (intentional?). I've never understood the fascination with her. She's hot, no denying that, but in 5 seconds I can find 500 hotter women doing very nasty things. Is it her "realness" versus the porno plastic look that people like? I was saying the exact same thing in the chat yesterday.

QUOTE (SHIPPS @ Jul 21, 2009 -> 10:06 AM) I have too but I just didnt post about it. It is f***ing awesome though isnt it... You bet your ass. I've actually heard that the breaded chicken is even better, though. The only problem is that it's all pretty expensive.

QUOTE (PlaySumFnJurny @ Jul 21, 2009 -> 09:44 AM) I think the lasting impact of Apollo is vastly undervalued today, particularly its contributions to computer advances. People also forget that it employed 400,000 people, and was, in a sense, its own form of "economic stimulus," in the form of a unique partnership between public and private concerns. Also, I've heard some interesting theories lately about how the Apollo program indirectly effected the Cold War and helped insure peace with the Soviets; the basic theory being that it not only increased American prestige at a time we were "competing" with them for influence over developing nations, but also got the USSR thinking that if we had the technological and finanical ability to land men on the moon, we must also be developing/have developed some bad ass secret weaponry. This not only helped deter potential Soviet aggression against us, but forced them to spend more of their money on guns than butter, similar to the tactics employed by Reagan just prior to the USSR's ultimate downfall. Besides, the space program just totally kicked ass. For some reason, I thought Russia eventually landed someone on the moon. I just looked into it, and there have been 14 people to walk on the moon, and all were Americans.
