  1. QUOTE(RockRaines @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 02:18 PM) wow that guy got banned extremely fast, any reasoning? every thread I read from him was confrontational, or at least inviting confrontation. Im not surprised at the quick hook.
  2. QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Aug 14, 2005 -> 01:41 PM) Daver eh what does that mean?
  3. QUOTE(Greg Hibbard @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 01:05 PM) Can we please get back to talking about how Paul Konerko is not a $10 million dollar a year value that statement is fine. I agree with it. But you act like Paul is no big deal. he has been a huge spark for a team desperate for a spark, and noone is noticing because they dont want to see it.
  4. QUOTE(Greg Hibbard @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 01:04 PM) Very well, let me just f***ing edit my statement to reflect the fact that Soxtalk is a website that is big on semantics. How many times has Paul Konerko ever hit a walk-off home run or single? My point is that when the chips are down and we are down 2 in the ninth, 2 out, 2 on and Konerko is up, you can count on a pop-up. Right, every other first baseman in the league besides Paul Konerko is more likely to hit a walk-off other than Konerko. Oh yeah, and a Walk-off homerun is the criteria of a good player. Someone quick, get Lyle Mouton on the phone! He hit a walk-off homerun one time, he must be good!
  5. QUOTE(Greg Hibbard @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 12:58 PM) game winning home run is not the same thing as "insurance run which eventually was the difference" Well you didnt say walk-off homerun did you? you said GAME WINNING HOMERUN OR HIT. I just gave you an example that happened last week, and it doesnt fit the criteria of your argument, so you try and say it doesnt count. deal with it.
  6. QUOTE(Greg Hibbard @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 12:59 PM) I mean, how f***ing ridiculous does that sound. there is only one thing f***ing ridiculous that i see. Go find a mirror Greg, you might see it too.
  7. QUOTE(Greg Hibbard @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 12:57 PM) This is quite a stretch. Boy its amazing how many people cannot admit they are wrong when the facts are put in their faces.
  8. QUOTE(Greg Hibbard @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 10:36 AM) Konerko is a COMPLETELY one-dimensional player, and next year he will probably be an extremely overpaid one JUST because of home run totals. Any ground ball is an insta-double play. He constantly clogs up the basepaths for the hitters behind him. He's serviceable, but not remarkable defensively. He's streaky to a maddening extent, and much, much worse with runners in scoring position/in clutch situations. Do you ever remember Konerko hitting a game winning homer or hit? I can't in recent memory but it's early monday morning so maybe I'm just wrong. In his early-mid 20s, he was consistently a .290-.300 hitter with 25-30 homers. For the last three seasons, he hasn't cracked .280, and .277 in '04 seems like the top of his threshold since he's turned into a pure slugger. Except for maybe 5-10 extra home runs and maybe 10-15 RBIs AT BEST, what are you getting out of Konerko that you couldn't get out of literally ANY other major league first baseman? I appreciate everything he has done in the past several seasons, but we could get a first baseman that could hit 20-30 home runs and have 80-90 RBIs for much, much less and go out and get even more help with the extra cash. hmmmmm, lets think way way back, to the good ole days of 2005, in fact it was August 10th, 2005. Paul Konerko wound up, in the 9th inning against Alan Embree and sent the pitch an estimated 450 feet into the Yankee monuments. It put the Sox up 2-0, in a game which they won 2-1, making it the game winning homerun. It was such a long time ago, you seem to have forgotten.
  9. One thing I have to suggest in regards to her chewing habits. A) Always have something available to chew B ) Never provide any of the "sqeaky" toys unless they are gauranteed tough. Those little squeakers are dangerous when the dogs finally get them out of the plastic C) Rawhide is alot more dangerous than the dog treat industry lets on. I always give my dogs natural chews, but never any wrapped rawhide(like the bone shown in the picture with Molly). Many dogs have problems digesting rawhide, and end up having major surgery or even dying because the rawhide blocks the intestine, or gets wrapped in the intestine. Try pig ears, baked bones, buddha bones, or the good old natural cow femur. Those are the most digestable, and actually the pig ears are the best for a growing puppy. D) Dont get sucked into buying pig or cow hooves. These are extremely dangerous(they splinter when the dog chews them) and not very digestable. E) The best way to remove those little pins and needles commonly referred to as "Puppy teeth" is a rope toy. Puppies are such a blast! I used to work at some pet rescues and at Petco for a while, if you have any questions about any products, feel free to PM me.
  10. QUOTE(WSNS-TV44 @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 10:26 AM) Cubs fans are like roaches,and about as lovable too.I wish there are like roaches,step and squash them all!!!! you are never supposed to step on a roach. Their eggs stick to the bottom of your shoe when you squash them and you spread them around. Just spray cubs fans in the face with Raid, that'll make em go away.

  13. QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Aug 13, 2005 -> 09:35 AM) My prediction is the same I made or the Bankee series: If the Sox win today, they'll take the series tomorrow. Book it. Im fairly sure you said that during chat when the White Sox were hanging by a thread in game 2 against the Yankees. I will 2nd that
  14. QUOTE(rangercal @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 02:29 PM) LOL!!!! Yeah right! Philly would do that in a heart beat. We would not trade urlacher or Brown. We already paid those huge signing bonuses for both of them. TO is not helping his trade value. IMO, philly would be happy to get a 1st round pick for him. After watching TO's ESPN debacle last night (3 different interviews on ESPN's various network stations), I have come to the conclusion that Drew Rosenhaus is equal to, if not worse than Scott Boras. Watching TO and Rosenhaus conduct that interview was sickening. They are in some sort of alternate reality where they are never wrong, and they arent understanding why Philly wont bow down to them. I understand it, Philly has made it very public that they dont re-do deals, and that their team will not be offset by the actions of one individual. Over the past three years they have let guys walk for less than what TO is doing. Hugh Douglass, Al Harris, Jeremiah trotter, etc.al have all tried to stand up to the Philly team concept and all of them have been told to take a short walk. He certainly hasnt made himself look any better throughout this ordeal.
  15. QUOTE(beck72 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 02:20 PM) I think you're right. But I'm not sure if another team would have to pick up the entire $8 mill or get the sox discount I dont think the Sox would keep the extra cash thats supposed to go towards paying for Contreras if they traded him. Dont you think the team that trades for him would want that money in the deal?
  16. QUOTE(sti3 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 02:16 PM) Quoting an entire post is underrated, though. lol
  17. QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:54 PM) 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. Actually, jumping out to a huge lead seems to be detrimental to the Sox, they play much better in close games. I dont know which one I would want with the Red Sox though, a close game or pile on at the beginning of the game and hold them off. The Rangers jumped out to a big lead against the Red Sox a few times and they just came right back and won.
  18. QUOTE(kapkomet @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 02:05 PM) yea, but it's not ORIGINAL. originality is over-rated on this site.
  19. QUOTE(upnorthsox @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 11:31 AM) Btw, a 2004 Sox version: Stage 1: Denial The Twins will fade. They can't be this good forever. The bubble will burst. The exuberance will become rational. If we can just pick up a game a week. Just a game a week. Well, maybe, um, two games for a couple of weeks… Stage 2: Anger/Questioning Why would a just God allow such things to happen? Why is evil rewarded and goodness punished? Why would Magglio Ordonez get struck down in the prime of his youth while Robby Alomar was allowed to remain in perfect health? Who replaced the regular bats with ass-bats? Why Scott Schoenweiss, why? Stage 3: Bargaining If the Sox can sweep this five-game series against Detroit, I'll go to the game every Sunday. I'll be good from now on. I'll wear my Ben Davis jersey all the time, even if it does give me a rash. I'll collect all the Sox bobbleheads. I won't complain about what a horrific pile of steaming crap our stadium is. I'll never call Jerry Reinsdorf a black-hearted tight-ass again. I'll… Stage 4: Depression I can't believe we lost five out of five to Detroit. Stage 5: Acceptance. I -- Wait a minute, acceptance? Are you crazy? There's still two months of baseball left to play! And the Cubs Still Suck!!! thats awesome upnorth, way to flip it.
  20. QUOTE(upnorthsox @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:43 PM) Where did she make fun of someone else's stadium? Actually, she didnt. I sort of retract my statement (the statement stands, the context in which I said it doesnt). I was responding more to what sti3 was saying. hmmm, didnt notice the grammar error in that until I highlighted it.
  21. My best friend went to the show, and his wife found a backstage pass on the ground. they ended up watching the rest of the show on the stage, 10 feet from the band. Dammit of all the times to not go to a show!
  22. QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:31 PM) This trade will likely all revert back to whether or not the Reds ownership wants to trade Griffey Jr. I'm not sure why everyone thinks they'll change their mind about 2 weeks after saying no to the trade the first time. I think this all hinges on the ownership getting together and deciding on the future of the Cincinatti Reds as a team. After these past 4 year with Griffey on the DL more than off of it, and consecutive losing years, they should realize that they should get rid of Griffey when the value for him is at the highest. The Sox arent in a desperation mode because of their current record, but everyone knows what Griffey could mean to this lineup. I dont think the Reds get much of a better deal in the off-season for Griffey, mostly because next year he will be a year older. Griffey obviously isnt putting butts in the stands, and the Reds arent challenging for a Wild Card. The ownership just needs to sit down and decide what players they are going to designate as their core rebuilding players(and i use the term rebuilding loosely, they have been in neutral for 4 years now), and get maximum value for the players who arent core players. I would really like to hear the reasoning why Lindner nixed the deal in the first place.
  23. QUOTE(sti3 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:29 PM) Our stadium hasn't been a pile of crap for several years now. I dont see how anyone who is a fan of the Twins can make fun of any stadiums whatsoever. If the Sox somehow pull of Griffey, I suppose her next published article will be about suicide instead of acceptance, lol.
