Milkman delivers

Wow, we f***ing suck. I will officially declare this season over if KW can't manage to bring in a legitimate offensive threat before the waiver deadline passes. Sure, we'll probably still make the playoffs (I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't, though), but we'll be shown the door very quickly. We've gone to s*** faster than the Orioles did.

QUOTE(3 BeWareTheNewSox 5 @ Aug 19, 2005 -> 03:54 PM) I think this is the quote being referred too: Dan (Boston): Are you a Carpenter or Clemens man? Rob Neyer: Clemens, although that could change soon. I don't think Neyer would stop being a Clemens man because he got injured. He clearly means steroids.

So, about that steroid rumor?

QUOTE(Steff @ Aug 19, 2005 -> 11:30 AM) And let me tell you how under cover that was.... his own teammates did NOT know until it was announced. Tease

If a person ever asked me to my face where Griffey would play as a reason to not get him, I would hit them in the face with a steel chair ala Ric Flair. Yes, that last part rhymed and now you'll remember. Griffey would be, without a doubt, hands down, no ifs, ands or buts about it, the single best offensive weapon on this team. I don't even care what his range factor or ZR or any other garbage stat that someone like Juggs can make up, err...find is. He could play SS for all I care, even if he is left-handed.

Alright, I'm gonna have to go with the comedic look at this. How do you miss a ship that isn't moving?

I must say, this might be getting me even more giddy than the trade rumors did. It's at least close to making me as excited.

QUOTE(Steff @ Aug 18, 2005 -> 04:28 PM) Ahhh.. I didn't read that board that was linked. Of the players Fergie discussed.. I would agree 1 is a definite HOF'er. Wait, did he actually name names? Just yes or no, don't say who unless you want to.

I have a strange feeling that they'd be doing this no matter how far ahead or behind they were at this point. We just have a tendency to choke out of our minds, except we're lucky enough to possibly be able to survive that choke this year because of the lead.

I'll fix PK's quote for him to make it more truthful.

Not starting s*** here, but what teams has Buehrle beaten this year? Is it all like the Royals and such? AND HELL YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOODBYE NO-HITTER!

QUOTE(Brian @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 04:37 PM) Can't keep trucking Ozuna out to 3rd. He is out of his element there. What the f*** is the point of having Blum if he's not going to back-up Crede any game in which Joe can't play? We're looking at the sweep here, boys. Already have to go up against Santana, and it looks like we're putting ourselves at another disadvantage with having Ozuna at 3B. It's almost set in stone that Pablo will make a costly, costly error.

QUOTE(redandwhite @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 03:21 PM) I must have not made myself clear in my original Kapler post. I think Kapler has used AAS in the past and will continue to do so once his baseball career is over for bodybuilding purposes. I also believe that being how good of a guy he is, he didnt leave Boston for the money, but did infact go to Japan to clean out his system before returning. This is not to say that using anabolics has helped him any on the field. Bodybuilding does not exactly go hand in hand with swinging a baseball bat. I just want to add that with proper diet and supplementation, good routinely training, and above average genetics, the body he carries can be built without AAS usage. Alright, we're on the same page. Kapler is certainly a beast, though. His forearms are bigger than my thighs. The guy should be able to hit a homer just by flicking his wrists

QUOTE(Steff @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 03:12 PM) I didn't mean it like that.. sorry. Peace. No, I was honestly thanking you.

QUOTE(Steff @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 03:06 PM) A former Sox player who went to Japan to play for a while told me that this is common practice. I have no idea on Kapler though. Sweet, thanks for making my story hold more water And redandwhite, I said exclude because it seems that you're the only Red Sox fan defending Kapler against steroids allegations.

QUOTE(Pauly8509CWS @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 02:48 PM) Dont you think that the OF'er would be Gabe Kapler, who mysteriously signed to play in Japan, and now is back? I know you said big names but Kapler is the obvious choice for me... All the rumors I've heard (from Red Sox fans and in Boston) say that Kapler took the time in Japan to clean out his system. Every single Boston fan I know, which excludes redandwhite apparently, believed Kapler was on steroids. Being a "gym rat" is absolutely no defense against steroids. You have to work out to get the results, and the more you work out, the better the results.

HELL YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! EAT s***!!!!!!!!!!! Err, uhh...HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 02:28 PM) Did you read my whole post closely? Go back and look very close.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 02:22 PM) Hawk is the f***ing man. PERIOD. I am a big ass boner just like Hawk and thats why I like him. [evil laugh]hehehehe[/evil laugh]

You shouldn't pat yourself on the back so much. I'd never do anything like that. You should be more humble, like me. Congratulations!

HAHAHA, exactly. This guy announces every big game on ESPN, and he gets worse every time.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 01:06 PM) LMAO, you cannot get through it sober, you probably needed more shrooms. Whoa, I just wanna make sure everyone knows I've never touched either of those things in my life.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:56 PM) I refuse to believe that whole scene was ever mostly about the music. It wasn't. It was about smoking a bong or eating some shrooms. Those friends I referred to tried to make me listen to that garbage more than once, and I felt like ramming my head into the wall because of how terrible it was. They had some songs that were good, but they had like 500 bad ones for every good one. 500 might be low-balling it, too.

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:53 PM) He means your avatar, and I, too, laugh each and every time I see it. It has to be one of the best avatars around, not to mention one of the single funniest moments of the fourth season. Anyone else want to see Boomer get bounced out in the second inning? 1.2 IP 6ER would look mighty nice tonight. I actually meant the larbage part. That line cracks me up, but Gary the Cougar was great, too. That's great.

QUOTE(bmags @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:46 PM) Jerry Garcia was NOT that great of a songwriter...he has his moments, but their music did not rely on their lyrics He relied heavily on the use of illegal substances both for himself and his fans. That's honestly the only way you can enjoy that garbage. I had a few friends that really liked him, needless to say they were all burn outs. And I agree with almost all of your list. Very nice.
