QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 14, 2009 -> 10:45 AM) No...I mean, would BA be booed? Because it's not so easy for me to differentiate "Ozzie booing" and "Wise booing" like so many are doing. In other words, I am sure there would be muted boos or no boos at all for BA in the same situation...but why should it be different for him than Wise or Owens? Why does this fantasy scenario that will never happen(because BA will not lead off) need to be clarified so much? I think you have gotten your answer already, it is the same thing with BA as it is with Wise, some would boo and some would not. People want to see productivity at the plate in an important spot in the game, and the booing would encompass BA/Wise not producing as well as Ozzie/KW putting out a player who was not prepared or sufficient to lead off a game.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Apr 14, 2009 -> 10:13 AM) I once said the baconator had too much bacon on it and it was suggested that I be tortured for such blasphemy. my problem with the baconator is the lack of lettuce tomato and onion. Its just a big pile of gooey salt. I always ask for the Big Bacon Classic

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 14, 2009 -> 09:47 AM) Sorry. I didn't realize your testicles already evaporated. be quiet or I will pull your ponytail

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 14, 2009 -> 09:44 AM) This is a guy who made $8 million last year, and averaged about 10 million over the previous 5 years or so. Why would he want to come to a place he vetoed a trade to for $500,000 or even a million dollars? Or how much are you talking about offering Edmonds? Im not talking any amount, Im just saying that sometimes these guys are swayed by paychecks thats they previously turned their heads away from. I think he could contribute, but I wouldnt count on him being the guy we all remember. A platoon with BA would probably be ideal for him. He really made 8 million from the Cubs last year? Jeez

QUOTE (lostfan @ Apr 14, 2009 -> 09:37 AM) So I will take her to Wendy's and f*** her when I get home. make sure she orders the baconator

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Apr 14, 2009 -> 09:37 AM) I saw him in the Busch Field stands the other day taking in a Cardinals game as an anonymous fan. Good to see he's keeping busy. does he still have highlights in his hair? that always cracked me up

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 14, 2009 -> 09:34 AM) Sounds nice in theory, but this is also a guy who blocked a trade here before. We don't know that he would even want to play for the Sox now. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ talks, especially for out-of-work players

QUOTE (lostfan @ Apr 14, 2009 -> 09:00 AM) I don't know about you guys but I'd still f*** the real LindsayL. she is kind of scary skeletal right now. that girl needs a few cheeseburgers

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 14, 2009 -> 09:18 AM) I do. Thankfully she hates Hannah Montana. But if she liked her I'd tell her to go with some friends. I would rather put up with the screaming kids(and subsequent banning) than the week long silent treatment from my wife for saying I wont take my daughter because I would get banned from soxtalk. My daughter is past HM as well, but the Jonas Brothers are on her radar now.

Who is Beckman?

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Apr 14, 2009 -> 09:06 AM) Stealing signs isn't necessarily cheating, it depends on how the signs are stolen. supposedly signs are stolen from the centerfield scoreboard and relayed to the Rangers dugout(not sure how, i have heard certain lights indicate certain things)

QUOTE (lostfan @ Apr 14, 2009 -> 07:41 AM) God damn dude, lighten up a little go get your outerwear

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 14, 2009 -> 07:48 AM) Any chance this is played? Looks like showers all day in Detroit. I was wondering the same thing. Detroit always seems to get the Chicago weather a day later, and the only reason the Cubs played yesterday was because it was opening day, they had no business playing on that field

QUOTE (JohnCangelosi @ Apr 14, 2009 -> 07:41 AM) Are we sure he's in the lineup and it's NOT Jerry Owens??? I haven't seen a lineup posted anywhere Ozzie already said he is going to be starting .

Im going to go out on a limb here and say this is the first day of Brians long career as a fulltime starter. I just have this feeling he is going to take it this time.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 14, 2009 -> 05:57 AM) Thought I would start collecting some of the most interesting Wise/Owens comments....last time I checked, nobody had ever talked about "killing" Brian Anderson or wishing that he got injured. In all fairness, I started one of the anti-Wise threads (Special thread dedicated to shots at Wise) but this whole situation is really starting to be aggravating if you say ANYTHING positive about Wise/Owens. EXAMPLE 1 QUOTE (kyyle23 @ Apr 13, 2009 -> 03:04 PM) How many times can you "kill" this guy? "It requires silver bullets and a wooden stake through the heart. And decapitate him for good measure." (stan bahnsen) EXAMPLE 2 f*** this idiotic decision. WTF are KW and Ozzie thinking here? I mean seriously, at LEAST go get someone who can hit in AAA, let alone the majors, like Kroeger or even Cook. Jerry Owens? Seriously? You STILL can't give Anderson, who is superior in just about every aspect of the game, a chance to start here? You WANT a guy with no arm playing CF? Godammit, son of a b****, f*** this cover-my-ass clique protection vendetta they have to put Owens out there when he ISN'T GOOD!!! Of course, the irony of the situation is everyone assuming the "conspiracy" was still in by Ozzie against BA and that Owens would actually be starting today in Detroit, coming off a 1/7 start in Charlotte with 3-4 strikeouts. Come on, I never wished injuries on Owens, I put kill in quotations to make sure that I wasnt implying that i want him hurt, the only thing I meant by it was that he keeps coming back.

Last night was "Everyone is drafted to RAW"

Hmmm, maybe we should trade back for him.....

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 13, 2009 -> 08:50 AM) Anyone one went to see the Hannah Montana movie for whatever reason should get an automatic 2 week suspension on this site. My 2 cents. Daughters automatically rescind this suspension(although I havent seen it yet. But I am sure at some point my daughter and nieces will want to see it, and I will have to see it as well) And SS2K should agree with this, since there are going to be some embarrassing movies coming up for him

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Apr 13, 2009 -> 08:21 PM) I hadn't thought of that, but if Jerry doesn;t pan out Jim Edmonds is an option for sure and he's a lefty. Maybe we can swing a trade and get Melky Cabrera or Swisher back from NY This is the worst idea ever. EVER Why would we want to bring Swisher back to lead him off and play CF when he completely failed there last year? because he had a good first week with the Yankees? Forget that

The Bulls werent getting any calls all night long, the Pistons were hacking on every play. It was a really hard fought win, and it wasnt pretty, but it doesnt need to be pretty on the road.

I think you are nuts

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Apr 13, 2009 -> 04:37 PM) Well yeah, of course, but that doesn't take away from the accomplishment of JD and Paulie. None of this discussion matters though, the no hitter is gone. I wasnt saying that, I was just stating where ESPN has their priorities. I think their accomplishment is absolutely amazing, back to back 300's is unreal

If a no hitter gets thrown, ESPN will undoubtedly find it more interesting than Dye and Konerko hitting back to back 300th homeruns.

How many times can you "kill" this guy?
