The title of this thread is priceless. I expect some good replies.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Jan 19, 2006 -> 10:44 AM) Everyone's buddy chimes in: http://www.suntimes.com/output/mariotti/cst-spt-jay19.html I love how he tells you why you shouldnt do it, and follows it with "he should have done it anyways". If it had incited a riot, Mariotti would be leading the way with the pitchforks.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jan 19, 2006 -> 10:41 AM) Yeah, hes not juicing. Doesnt the guild of comedians have some sort of anti-doping law?

You mean his eyes arent supposed to be beady like that, and those muscles arent normal? Yeah, you could say that he has gotten a little more wierd with the passage of time

QUOTE(Felix @ Jan 18, 2006 -> 11:50 PM) Youkilis is a damned good player. I'd take him over Lee in an instant based alone on the price Lee would be (especially if the Yankees are pursuing him) Youkilis cant hold Derrek Lee's jock. If this guy has been the second coming of, well, every infielder in the history of infielders then why hasnt he been able to crack the starting lineup of Boston for the past 2 years? Boston has played some pretty dismal offensive players in his positions(2B and 3B) for the past 2 years(ex. Cora, Bellhorn, Ricky Gutierrez), why didnt they give Youkilis an extended shot? The Greek God of Walks thing is funny too. In 208 at bats in 2004, he had 33 walks and 45 strikeouts. In 79 at bats last year, 14 walks and 19 strikeouts. True, not alot of at bats, but the kid doesnt need that nickname if he is striking out more than he walks.

QUOTE(chitownsportsfan @ Jan 19, 2006 -> 09:45 AM) LOL kyle, I was kinda wondering where that Kerry Wood thing came from. Out of left field I guess. Yeah, out of left field on the Northside. The only thing I can find that remotely references Kerry Wood is in Rob Neyer's article, where he laughingly inserts that if "Prior and Wood are healthy... Hey, it could happen. If those guys combine for 60 starts, the Cubs have a real shot at knocking off the Cardinals.". Thats it.

QUOTE(innersanctum @ Jan 19, 2006 -> 08:14 AM) I am so sick of hearing about Kerry Wood. He is an average pitcher and on the White Sox he would be a 6th, maybe a 5th starter. Take that game against Houston and his 20 strikeouts off his resume, well you get a pitcher that can't win more than 14 games and is injured a lot of the time. I just don't get the hype about Wood. The media has embraced him since that game and he just hasn't produced since. If you are sick of him, why did you bring him up? Kerry Wood wasnt even being discussed in this thread. Why? Because noone cares, and this subject isnt about the Cubs.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Jan 19, 2006 -> 12:27 AM) How come they gave him a T and no free throw? Dont know. It was really confusing at the end there. They announced the technical foul, then gave the Bulls the ball, and that was it.

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Jan 18, 2006 -> 11:44 PM) I saw it. She didn't seem anywhere near as dumb on the news as she seemed on American Idol, and she was wearing quite a bit less make-up. She still had a decent amount of make-up on, but it looked O.K. and she was much better looking. I dont think it matters if they made her look bad with more makeup or not. She was awful. She tried to hit the same note about 6 times in a row and couldnt do it. I understand the show has insane amount of pressure for these people and their nerves have to be shot once they see the judges, but thats what it is all about. If she had it, she would have shown it. She had two chances, and was equally bad and equally glitzed out in both try outs.

I dont think its that much different. They keep making them wider and wider though, and that pisses me off because they always load up annoying videos when i am not paying attention. I wish there wasnt so much s*** going on in the page. I have my tv for watching, I want to read the site.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jan 19, 2006 -> 12:09 AM) I definitely saw a few people standing up, he obviously saw something otherwise he wouldn't have ran up there. I mean the security did such an awesome f***in job getting there so that helped as well. I don't see how anyone could fault someone for trying to help their family. AD isn't going to see something going down and thing "well, something might happen and security still isn't there but hell..I'll take my chances. Its not faulting someone. Its against the rules. Just like if a fight breaks out on the court, you are not allowed to leave the bench to help your teamate even if he is getting his ass handed to him. It doesnt matter, you dont leave the bench. Gail Fisher is now reporting a fine and possibly suspension is coming down the line. His dumbass action has more and more repurcussions.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jan 19, 2006 -> 12:07 AM) I still haven't seen it so I am just going off of what Rowand said... This isnt a huge fight breaking out in the stands. Davis heard his wife barking back and forth with some asshole and went up to make sure he didnt f*** with her. Thats stupid, he shouldnt have left the bench. There is security in the arena to prevent that sort of thing, he wasnt rushing to the aid of his severely beaten wife.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jan 19, 2006 -> 12:02 AM) There we have it. And yes kyyle, I know I am not married, but common flipping sense tell you if your family is in trouble....to, ummmm, help. Ah, Rowand agreed with you therefore it is right. I just saw the replay. You guys are full of s***. They were all sitting down except his wife and some other lady. Totally unnecassary. common flipping sense :headshake

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jan 18, 2006 -> 11:53 PM) I still disagree and I know what you mean but like I said, we still don't know the extent of the harrassment. What if we find out tommorrow morning that his wife was being sexually abused? Would you're reactions change? Ok just shut up now. Dont start making up wild scenarios to defend your opinion that men should rush to the aid of their wives everytime there is a disturbance. You arent even married, you have no idea. The situation was harrassment, she wasnt being sexually abused.

The guy who got ejected looked like a little wienie anyways, She could have kicked his ass. He was probably just making sure everything was ok. But it doesnt matter, it is in the rulebook now, automatic ejection for leaving the bench and entering the stands. AD knows it, he has to. He shouldnt have done it, and his team ended up losing. Whether that had to do with him or not is doubtful but debatable still, but he still shouldnt have done it.

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Jan 18, 2006 -> 07:53 PM) Anderson has more baseball experience, is better defensively, and put up his .295 18 .829 whatever splits at AAA last yeear, while Owens hit .330 at AA in a huge park, and he was something like 38 of 58 in SBs. I consider myself an Owens supporter on this, considering his lack of baseball experience, but he's probably not starting material. Not to mention that Owens is a Left Fielder, right? So winning the Center Fielder Job seems kind of unlikely.....

Chandler- 2 Points, 6 Rebounds, fouled out. Curry- 11 Points, 4 rebounds, fouled out. Just like old times at the UC!

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jan 18, 2006 -> 03:45 PM) Still before we even talk about AJ and gold gloves, I think it would behoove us all to go look at which pitchers had the most wild pitches in the league. Even though a WP isn't credited to the catcher, that doesn't mean there's nothing the catcher can do to stop it...that only means it was in the dirt. Well, that is determined by MLB scorekeepers, isnt it? If they determine the catcher could have done something about it, it is then termed a passed ball and charged to the catcher.

QUOTE(ChWRoCk2 @ Jan 18, 2006 -> 02:53 PM) Just reading some other posts the Indians did imrprove a little, who is to say that Paul Byrd and Millwood are about the same pitchers, they arent very different, Well yeah, if a power throwing pitcher is the same as a junkballer.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jan 18, 2006 -> 03:16 PM) Exactly. I don't know that I have seen many catchers worse at stopping the ball in the dirt. QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Jan 18, 2006 -> 03:24 PM) You also need to be able to throw out runners to be a Gold Glove catcher. I agree with both of those assessments, but it still leaves me scratching my head why Varitek is even considered. .990 FP, 8 errors, 7 passed balls, and they wont even let Wakefield throw to him. Then you have AJ with a .999 FP, 1 error, and 7 passed balls. strange

Carolina Denver

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Jan 18, 2006 -> 01:13 PM) Because Neyer is a stathead and he argued all last season that the White Sox weren't good enough to win the World Series. Now he looks like an idiot because his stats failed him. No, he looks like an idiot because he looks like an idiot. It has nothing to do with stats.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jan 18, 2006 -> 12:50 PM) The Indians strengthened their roster this year Rob? Paul Byrd being that huge upgrade from Millwood? Ha, I read that quote and thought "The Indians and Twins strengthened their rosters? How?"

Im really surprised that Boras let this one get away. Not his style.
