QUOTE(jenksd @ Dec 14, 2005 -> 11:22 AM) ESPN has still barely given this anything other than a mention since they first had it reported at like 2 am. I've seen the chart with Nomar Garciaparra as the Yankees' first baseman about 6000 times though. LOL, thats cause Peter Gammons had no idea about it, and has to film a small documentary where he traces the steps of the trade, as if he knew all along.

QUOTE(AnthraxFan93 @ Dec 14, 2005 -> 11:25 AM) I think as soon as the Vazquez trade becomes Offical..He can pack his bags, he never wanted to be here in the first place. ESPNews has changed their breaking news corner from "Report:Vazquez traded to White Sox" to "Vazquez traded to White Sox", TIFWIW

I dont know if Garland ever felt that Chicago was his true home, if you think about it. He had to hate it when Manuel was the coach, the guy had no plan for Garland and no faith in him. Then he almost gets traded for Erstad, gets killed by the press for not caring, and doesnt complain about anything. I think he enjoyed his time here, but I wont be surprised when he goes elsewhere, either through a trade or free agency. I never thought he would stick around past his free agency years anyways. I would like to see him put together a "contract-year" type of season, however. I think keeping Garland next year would be very beneficial for the Sox in 2006, but you cant let that kind of talent walk. I dont think his value will be any higher for the Sox to unload him though.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2005 @ Dec 14, 2005 -> 12:22 AM) I'm not worried about the depth at wr. We've got Moose, Gage, Berrian and Currie. Besides the fact that he is on IR, what has Airese Curry done to give you faith in the depth at WR? Just curious.

QUOTE(AssHatSoxFan @ Dec 14, 2005 -> 10:45 AM) some crazy kid i once knew said the foo fighters killed kurt cobain Didnt the Foo Fighters come into existence after Kurt died?

Ive been nominated! I'm verclempt. Talk amongst yahselves. The Holy Roman Empire. Was it Holy, was it Roman, was it an Empire? Talk. Thanks nuke

I think the problem is that Crawford is basically the senior member of a very young and good outfield. If the Rays want to go cheap, then they will trade Crawford and keep the kids that are coming up. Plus, Rocco Baldelli just signed a bigger deal than Crawford, and the rumor is that Crawford was not happy with that. I would love to have that guy on the Sox. I think he would take his game to the next level if he were part of the White Sox next year.

Please dont bring Tejada here Kenny. Please.

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Dec 14, 2005 -> 09:21 AM) Sorry, I love what El Duque did for us in the postseason but I sure didn't enjoy his 1.46 WHIP and 5.12 ERA in the regular season. Dont forget his time on the DL. Duque brought alot of credentials, and maybe he was a force in the lockerroom, but he was less than advertised in the field.

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Dec 14, 2005 -> 09:17 AM) I'd rather get something for Garland and Crede now than watch them leave for nothing after 2006. Then shoot high. Garland and Crede can net you a better player than Blalock, IMO.

QUOTE(Steff @ Dec 14, 2005 -> 09:11 AM) No, I didn't. A friend of mine forwarded me the links and I was kinda surprised at all the evidence pointing to murder. I didn't pay much attention to the situation when it happened. Apparently noone paid attention. Courtney got away with murder. After you watch that movie, its hard to believe otherwise. One of the bigger pieces of evidence that was overlooked is the fact that Cobain couldnt shoot himself with the shotgun he had, the trigger was too far for his fingers. He could have used his toes possibly, but both of his shoes were on when he was found dead.

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Dec 14, 2005 -> 09:05 AM) Garland and Crede for Blalock and prospects? Blalock? I thought we covered our 3B jonesing with Mackowiak?

Havent any of you seen "Kurt and Courtney". Lots of people think Courtney killed Kurt. In fact, alot of the evidence points that way too. http://www.thesmokinggun.com/kurt/kurt.html Some good bits of info on this page

QUOTE(tonyho7476 @ Dec 14, 2005 -> 08:58 AM) Wow, what a quote! We are the f***ing kings! Has a nice ring to it.

QUOTE(illinilaw08 @ Dec 13, 2005 -> 05:17 PM) Max Mercy from the Natural = Jay Mariotti I would like Mariotti a little bit(just a little bit) if he could doodle like Max. However, he cant, so I dont.

QUOTE(SnB @ Dec 14, 2005 -> 08:51 AM) we're becoming spoiled with all of this winter activity the past few years. Hey, when you finally get to sit on the throne, you better act like a f***ing king.

i wonder if he is still going to make his appearance with Moose at the Sprint store down the street from me.

I love how NY is hyping this as the Yankees uniting the trifecta of shortstops on one team. Maybe 3-5 years ago, this would have been spectacular. But now, adding Nomar to that currently overpaid and underachieving team just makes me laugh. Let them have Nomar, their starting pitching is still a train wreck, they have no visible chemistry, and appear to have next to nothing in the minors. And who to blame but the Boss? Thats the greatest part, IMO.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Dec 13, 2005 -> 09:47 AM) TWIW, but Gammons said last week if Arizona were to trade Vazquez, they would not pick up any of his contract, including the $3 million the Yankees send them to help pay it. That means, if their position hasn't changed, the Sox would be on the hook for $11.5 million this year, and $12.5 million next year. The way Vazquez has performed the last season and a half, I would prefer to hang on to Garland and/or Contreras at that price. I am one who doesn't think this is going to happen. Not if they are trading for Jon Garland, they arent. f*** that bulls***, we arent sending them a budding pitcher for a well known headcase, and picking up the whole bill. If Arizona feels that they must trade Vazquez because he demands it, then the White Sox hold the hammer. KW better not let his lust for Vazquez get in the way of this deal if he should make it.

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Dec 13, 2005 -> 03:02 AM) That judge deserves to be fired... and thats all im going to say. I agree. The Judge couldnt even come to terms with the "punishment" that she gave to the priest. this guy is scarred for life, and the priest gets to go back to his regular life. There was really no justice served in this case.

Happy Birthday SS2K5. Allot yourself 1500 posts for the occasion. I would say you earned them, but then I would be lying......

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Dec 12, 2005 -> 09:35 AM) Interesting thing is IMO the Heat win the Championship last year if Wade doesn't get hurt late in game 5 of the East Finals against Detroit. The Heat up 3-2 with a healthy Wade wouldn't have lost that series. Also remember in '03-'04, he helped develop a VERY young team (with no Shaq) that started 0-9 into a playoff team that made the 2nd round of the playoffs. Van Gundy is a good coach (best in his family) and he was a victim of a setup and Pat Riley's ego. Sad to see. I dont know if I agree with this. the Pistons were no joke last year. Noone knows how those conference finals would have ended up. But I do agree that a healthy Dwayne Wade would have put the Heat in a much better situation to win, no doubt.

Do they show you how to fill the battery?

Guests will be: Former White Sox *stars* Lyle Mouton, Paco Martin, Danny Wright, Jose Paniagua, and Tony Phillips! Bring your 2005 World Champion White Sox gear to the event to get signed! Be there or be square!

Eh, Im not surprised. The Heat are good, but they should have been great for the past two years. I am sure Riley has been fidgeting in his office for a while now, and finally the pressure has gotten to Van Gundy. I think that Ron Jeremy will find another job soon enough, maybe with Brother Combover in Houston.
