QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ May 21, 2009 -> 09:55 AM) Wait, a deal has already been decided on? We're just waiting for Peavy to accept or decline? Kalapse was on to this immediately, he gets the credit here(besides KONA). He completely doubted the validity of it as soon as he saw it, but he had the link up to us in chat when the MLB.com rumor was a page and a half

QUOTE (joesaiditstrue @ May 21, 2009 -> 09:12 AM) you'd have to think other teams have been digging for Peavy with deal scenarios all offseason and up until this point the fact that *this* deal is the one getting reported could mean a lot The only thing I am concerned about is if this is the deal that is being thrown out there to have a team(most likely the Brewers) sweeten the pot. Kind of like what happened with the Miguel Cabrera trade to detroit

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 21, 2009 -> 08:59 AM) Levine on ESPN right now. Confirms nothing new. Levine must be upset about this

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ May 21, 2009 -> 08:46 AM) If this happens today I will rub one out at my cubicle. truly a BigSqwert

This is kind of like last year waiting for Griffey to say yes And I would like to add, I wont doubt KONA from the mlb.com messageboards ever again if this happens

QUOTE (chisox2334 @ May 21, 2009 -> 08:10 AM) sorry source said deal is done pending peavy deicsion Thats been the status quo since last night. This deal is (supposedly) done and signed off, all Peavy has to do is waive his NTC

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ May 21, 2009 -> 08:08 AM) I just read this on BBTF. Is KW really going to pull this rabbit out of a hat? As of now, KW has his hand in the top hat, its up to the rabbit to come out

QUOTE (G&T @ May 21, 2009 -> 07:56 AM) This has nothing to do with the Cubs. If this deal happens, you can bet your money the Cubs are going to be all over the papers for missing out

QUOTE (chw42 @ May 21, 2009 -> 07:11 AM) Thing is, do we really want Peavy? His career ERA is 3.80 away from Petco. Now he comes into a better league in a hitter's park. Can we say regression? I know Peavy's a good pitcher and he would probably be our best pitcher if we got him, but damn, he pitched in the WBC in 06 and sucked that year and he's coming off the WBC this year as well and he's also not pitching too well other than his last start against the Reds. I honestly don't see a Jake Peavy in both Richard and Poreda. I think those guys make sense. They're expendable. If this deal doesn't involve Beckham or Alexei, I'm fine with it. I also don't like the idea of getting rid of Dye since this offesne already sucks. The thing with this deal is, I don't see the Sox winning the division even with Peavy. Not with Gavin Floyd pitching the way he has been. Peavy affords the Sox time to get Floyd straightened out, especially if Contreras can figure things out. I dont know why you are so hesitant to put a pitcher of this caliber on the starting 5

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ May 21, 2009 -> 07:20 AM) If you're referring to my blackberry then yes. Otherwise I want to get out of there asap. Thats pretty much where I get all of my reading done. Its the only place I can get some PEACE AND (relative) QUIET!

How many of you are bathroom readers?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 20, 2009 -> 06:52 PM) Not unless somehow someone could have put your hands on Josh's legs and said "They are healed." I didnt know the timetable on his knee injury, so i didnt want to use that as part of my reasoning. I know that Josh slid hard into second base in a game early last year and jammed his knee, and really wasnt very good afterwards until he finally went under the knife.

QUOTE (Marty34 @ May 20, 2009 -> 06:43 PM) Guillen's terse response to a question about Fields. Meaning he's about ready to join Lillibridge in Charlotte. More than anything, I think Fields was messed up by not making the team out of spring training last year. In hindsight, Williams probably should have dealt Crede after the '07 season. Did they sacrifice Fields career to win the division last year? I dont think the Sox win the division last year with Fields at 3rd to start the year

So he ended the season on a 23 game hit streak, I wonder how many games he played in(ie. did he actually have a game in which he did not get a hit)?

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ May 20, 2009 -> 04:29 PM) Disagree. 90% of games are for each platform, so it does little to hype the 5-6 exclusives it has (which it does btw, quite a lot, especially MLB The Show and Metal Gear when it was new). Sony's biggest problem wasn't the cost, it was that the 360 had been established for over a year. Most of my friends went ahead and got the 360 because they figured they'd eventually get both. Then when the ps3 came out they had no reason to rush out and buy it. The exclusives were non-existent at launch and really are just now really coming out. IMO this generation wasn't about which is better, because they are different machines. PS3 is designed for single player home entertainment, whereas the 360 was designed around xbox live and multiplayer. As an owner of both, they do what they're supposed to do in a fantastic way. As I've said for a long time, Sony knocks out the best hardware and Microsoft puts out the best software. It's too bad they can't collaborate for a really good console. Meanwhile, in a distant galaxy, Nintendo is content servicing milf's and old folks, completely forgetting their fan base, and probably screwing itself in the future. The Wii's shelf life is easily half that of the ps3 or 360, and the only must-have game in the future is Zelda, which is still a complete mystery. So we'll keep getting gamecube knockoffs and lame hello kitty titles until the next next generation. Thanks Nintendo. LOL, ok

wow, she went for broke, Weed, Beer, Sex, Children in the backseat, DUI.

QUOTE (False Alarm @ May 20, 2009 -> 12:12 PM) don't really feel guilty about it but RA salvatore's an author i followed for years who'll never have library of america editions of his novels. he's a sharecrop pulp fantasy writer and i no longer read everything he puts out, but he's done many great, energetic scenes over the years, and that does take skill. he's got nothing to be ashamed of. I enjoyed his Dark Elf series

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 20, 2009 -> 12:11 PM) OOOOOOOooooooooHHHHHHH! GOOD FOR YOU........ admit it, you are a fan of Charlies Angels Full Throttle, arent you

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ May 20, 2009 -> 12:10 PM) Yeah, and I thought it was hilarious in the movie that Muldoon goes out hunting velociraptors (which are dramatically exagerrated in size from reality) with a friggin shotgun. Seriously? An animal roughly the mass of a grizzly bear but much faster, more muscular and with tough skin, and you think that 12 gauge is doing a damn thing? In the book, they used LAW rockets and/or tranqs, which seemed over the top but actually would be much more effective. The movie was silly. Book has silly elements too of course, but not as bad. The lawyer character was entirely different in the book as well. Muldoon was supposed to be the premiere big game hunter in the world too, which makes his death in the movie a little more comical with him getting trapped by the Raptors using the "focus on one while the others close in from behind" hunting method. I cant recall how he died in the book, but I think it was a little more graphic

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ May 20, 2009 -> 11:46 AM) The book, which is short, is pretty good. Not great, but entertaining. Actually, the book Jurassic Park was a decent read, far better than the movie. The movie version of Jurassic park cuts off some of the more interesting action in the book. The Aviary, the second younger T-Rex, and Hammond isnt presented as much as a crazed billionaire in the movie as much as he is in the book, plus Hammond and Malcolm die in the book(although Malcolm gets a soap opera style rebirth for The Lost World book)

Yeah I am reading some bleh reviews for T-Salvation, not BAD,but certainly not good. It doesnt surprise me, this is McG
