QUOTE(Lemon_44 @ Jan 23, 2008 -> 05:53 AM) When you think about it, the Sox have improved their roster as much as anyone,outside of Detroit, in this off season. They've added 6 players in Cabrera, Swisher, Dotel, Linebrink, Quentin, and Ramirez without having to give up any major league talent, except Jon Garland, who was gone after this year anyway. Also they are not stuck paying an aging CF 90 million dollars the next 5 years. People rip KW because of the people he missed out on but Miguel Cabrera was pretty much a pipe dream and Detroit gave up their entire minor league prospect list to get him. Not signing Hunter will turn out to be a blessing.Who knows what you're getting in Fukodome and Rowand, i don't think, was really ever in the picture. Acquiring another SP would have been nice but there really wasn't a whole lot out there.Plus, KW may still swing a trade for somebody.I still won't be surprised to see an Angels trade go down. But the two main weaknesses last year were the bullpen and getting guys on base. I think the Sox have addressed those issues nicely and all's it cost them was minor leaguers and cutting the dead weight from the roster. Throw in the return of Ozuna and Crede and your roster looks even better.That's 8 guys you have added. Crede may still be dealt but nothing is for sure. Detroit still looks like the team to beat but the Sox are going to be right there. People like the big splash signing or trade but KW has quietly put together a very quality roster. We won't have to watch the likes of Gonzales, Aardsma, Sisco, Pods, Erstad, et al come in a flounder away. The Sox will have quality at every position, assuming Danks and Floyd make the expected improvement. Take your sunny optimism elsewhere my friend, this is Soxtalk.

QUOTE(The Critic @ Jan 22, 2008 -> 11:05 AM) This was me watching the game with my wife during every Freddy start in 2006: "Okay, watch what he does.....ONE look to first.....sloooooooooow leg-lift and delivery!" "I swear to God, I can't steal on ANY major-league pitcher, but I could steal on Freddy Garcia EVERY TIME!!!" "LOOK, here we go again!!! ONE LOOK, LEGLIFT, STOLEN BASE!!!" And this was her reaction: No wait, that wasn't it.....oh yeah, THIS was her reaction: then "No, you STILL couldn't steal on him." then about the horrible life decision she made almost 16 years ago.

QUOTE(Shadows @ Jan 22, 2008 -> 09:38 AM) I agree, it was killing me to know what the monster looked like But you knew already!

God I hope KW isnt planning to deal Jenks. A closer like Jenks doesnt come along every day, and I dont know if we can count on Dotel Plus, I want to see the back end of this bullpen as it is constructed right now, because it looks damn good

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Jan 22, 2008 -> 01:20 AM) I hope Tom Terrific just f***s them. And I hope this foot in a boot thing is all a ploy to try and get the Giants to think that Tom Brady is sore. This is definitely a Belichek ploy, he loves to play the "He may be hurt, he may not be hurt" game with the media and opposing teams

Its hard for me to have a favorite commercial anymore. Anytime I think something is funny, I usually see the same commercial 50X an hour for the next year and get burned out on it quickly. I guess my favorite commercial now are a few of the Southwest Airlines "Wanna get away?" commercials, the one where the guy puts all of his saved and loose change in the bank box and sends it into the bank where it explodes, and the commercial where people are at a party and the guy starts dancing to impress a girl and knocks over the dj booth.

The Packers secondary is getting eaten alive.

When did Dexter get moved from Showtime to CBS?

QUOTE(SoxAce @ Jan 20, 2008 -> 07:19 PM) Technically, he did play (got hurt later) but probably wouldn't have been that much of a difference. 2 carries for 5 yards certainly isnt much. agreed

QUOTE(Steve9347 @ Jan 14, 2008 -> 11:12 AM) but still... thats two big losses and to beat indy on the road was a defining game for the chargers. assuming they get LT and Rivers back... an upset is brewing in foxboro. book it. QUOTE(SoxAce @ Jan 20, 2008 -> 05:18 PM) Steve's prediction was 10x worse than mine. Least I could say mine through the Colts beating the Pats or a SD upset. In Steve's defense, his prediction hinged on LT playing.

QUOTE(Brian @ Jan 20, 2008 -> 04:15 PM) Didn't you guys have Algae eaters in your tanks? algae eaters(Plecostamous)really dont do the whole job, they will clean up leftover stuff that you dont get when you clean, but they dont really do the job that people think they do. in fact, the older they get, the less they will scour the algae off the tank and the more they start eating the remaining fish food that floats to the bottom. When they get really big they are just about worthless, I had a 12 inch pleco in my 55 gallon tank with my Oscars and it basically sat in the same place at all times.

Anyone see Candice Michelle's softcore lesbian porn (HBO or Cinemax late night, nothing special) with Belinda Gavin from American Gladiators? A quick Google search will show you the pictures/clip. The bathtub scene is hilarious, Candice doesnt look like she is too hip to the girl on girl action. Candice - wubba wubba Belinda - yuck

QUOTE(Hatchetman @ Jan 18, 2008 -> 08:16 AM) this guy has averaged 17 innings/year over the past 3 years! tommy john surgery in June of 2005 dictated that

All three of those guys could come back right now and have a better run then Sid Vicious EVER had. What a ridiculous statement

A breakdown of the Cloverfield marketing campaign

You guys should hear/see the auto dealership voice guy in southern illinois. His name is Dan something or another, and his catch phrase is "You come and see us" with a really thick southern drawl, the guy is just DRENCHED in spray on tan His commercials are so annoying. Im sure Rowand44, Brian, and Sonik22 know exactly who I am talking about

Hot Roast beef sandwich (not so good), potato salad(really bad) a pickle (cant really screw that up), and doritos(yay!) from the work cafeteria. I just didnt want to leave the building. I learned my lesson

To continue my story from before, I was at a barn party during freshman year in Carbondale, and it was insane. Naked people swinging from the rafters, drunks jumping over(and into) the bonfire, and then there was me. Pretty much a novice at drinking, I thought I would try everything that was passed my way. A guy who later became a good friend and neighbor(but we didnt know each other at the time) told me that during that night i was seen with a half bottle of tequila in my hand, a bottle of Southern Comfort, Jack Daniels, and 3 different kinds of schnapps, plus the beer that was in 5 different kegs scattered around the party. I just remember thinking to myself "I need to sit down on this couch right here", so I did. And I passed out. And I began vomiting all over myself in my passed out state until a high school buddy of mine saw me and got 3 friends of his to take me to the hospital. It is safe to say that I have never been as hungover as i was the day after that party. I sat in the shower for at least an hour dry heaving, couldnt even get up to go to Grinnell Cafeteria for something, and slept all day and half of the following day.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Jan 16, 2008 -> 03:59 PM) Any of the bazillion commercials for erectile dysfunction medications. If I see another 50 year old married couple sitting in matching bathtubs in the middle of a field... One exception: the ones for whatever that over the counter one is, encite, or something. Enzyte maybe? Those are pretty funny. Yeah, the super happy enzyte user and his super happy wife are pretty funny

QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Jan 16, 2008 -> 04:02 PM) Woman accuses Moss of battery; Moss accuses her of blackmail, denies hitting anyone and calls whatever happened an "accident". Not sure what to believe; don't care, at this moment with nothing but vague charges being thrown about. unfortunately for Moss he has a little bit of a history with hitting women.

Princess Leia = Comedy Gold I dont know what was up with that kid singing like he had his tongue amputated, but there was some serious problems there. Ali was hysterical "Ladies tell me "like the sexy face"
