QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 05:49 PM) Though I own probably every product ever produced with Frank's mug on it, and there's a fare amount of it, Frank could never compare to Griffey in that department. Griffey would be a huge draw. It'd be awesome to have 2 of the greatest hitters of the '90s on this team. I was just going to mention this article. I remember reading it, there was a picture on the intro page where both Frank and KGJ are standing in their respective batting boxes at homeplate in the old Kingdome, with both of their bats extended and touching over homeplate. Im going to take this as a sign from above, It was a prophetic article from SI.

QUOTE(Brian @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 03:09 PM) Saw a trailer for "Sound of Thunder". I read the short Ray Bradbury story in high school and liked it. Looking forward to it. The best adaptation to that book was the Simpsons Treehouse of horror episode. One of the funniest simpsons ever.

Somebody tell me that this thread is all in jest. Im trying to figure out if this is some sort of joke or if I am missing something....

QUOTE(BamaDoc @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 02:35 PM) Sorry, I wasn't up for wading through all 18 pages. Missed yours, again sorry. its a joke, dont worry about it.

QUOTE(BamaDoc @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 02:33 PM) Since Griffey is in the NL, every NL team would have to pass on him. Then since we have the best AL record every AL team would have to pass on him in order for our claim to prevail. Slim just left town! Do I hear a poorly executed echo? I think I do!

QUOTE(Leonard Zelig @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 02:20 PM) Yes LOL the answer is four. Now figure out what the question is

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 02:06 PM) i don't have XBOX! I have PS2. either way, unplug the muthaf***a and get back into the real world. Pointing out random lefties on other teams and wondering if they are going to be placed on waivers for no particular reason isnt really helping.

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 01:29 PM) There's a spot called DH. You could put a hitter there who you don't want to play the field. LOL

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 01:22 PM) I think we are going in the wrong direction. I am much more in favor of making sure our whole infield does not speak a lick of english. So you want Cabrera, right?

QUOTE(Queen Prawn @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 01:21 PM) I don't understand why they could suspend him? There was no warning after out guy was plunked so where is the "suspendable" action? Watch, they are gonna pull some bulls*** "We warned both teams no funny business prior to the game" Its gonna get appealed and drag on for a while

Tadahito lives near me, thats kind of cool. I cant believe he drives through the traffic around here to get to chicago, that must really suck. I would have lived closer, but he obviously feels comfortable in the japanese community in Schaumburg

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 01:03 PM) you are the yankees of soxtalk....sinner LMAO same wavelength

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 01:02 PM) You should see what a new font costs on the open market. Luckily I have the biggest posting total on Soxtalk and can afford it. Im gonna start calling you steinbrenner2k5 then

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 12:59 PM) Yeah, I sold all of my green font to Texsox for use on SLaP, in exchange for a font TBNL. Wow, font TBNL passed through waivers already? Im an average baseball fan and I am shocked.

QUOTE(JimH @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 12:57 PM) Mike do you have a green font deficiency today? He lost that priveledge with his mod/admin title

QUOTE(ChWRoCk2 @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 12:53 PM) yanks arent going to go after him, i think their lineup is already pretty packed and there arent many open spots on their roster to put him, im not even sure where we would put him quite frankly, i like carl and id hate to bench him Sorry, but i think even Carl would defer to griffey as being the better hitter in this situation. Griffey would be PT outfielder and almost fulltime DH, while Carl moves around filling in for Arow, Pods and Dye and being PT DH. No brainer

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 10:04 AM) http://www.cnn.com/2005/TECH/ptech/08/02/m...g.ap/index.html These guys are gonna learn their lesson when a hacker drains an account as while he is hanging out by the pool, right before he takes off.

Waivers is a 2 day process or a 3 day process?

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 12:39 PM) I'd be willing to bet Griffey already has or soon will pass through waivers. How is it known that a player is placed on waivers? Is there a formal letter sent to team offices around the league? is it a wire that the public can access?

QUOTE(YASNY @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 12:35 PM) Slim and none. Slim just left town. Do you think another team would block it before it reached the White Sox, or do you think it wont go down for another reason. I was in utter disbelief that Larry Walker ended up on the Cardinals last year, Im wondering if a similar situation could arise.

QUOTE(Cerbaho-WG @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 12:16 PM) I don't believe the reports, any of them. Cinci needs arms, not Chris Young. Why would they trade for Young when they would already have an OF of Dunn, Kearns and Pena? With Griffey gone they could easily afford to resign Dunn. I'm willing to bet that the prospect package would have included a Tracey or McCarthy over Young. Well if they are still going to try and get rid of Dunn, and Casey is rumored to be on the way out because of lack of production and hefty contract, then Young and Rogo make sense.

QUOTE(VAfan @ Aug 2, 2005 -> 03:38 PM) Do you know of a site that gives AAA comparables? I'll be happy to make the comparisons. Does it matter? You are trying to say that Brandon McCarthy is good because of a fact that you cannot compare to a major leaguer. Then you compare that stat to a major leaguers stat. The argument is moot. You can look around the minors for K/BB ratios and K/9 ratios that compare or are worse than BMACs, but in the end it doesnt matter because the minors are not even close to the majors.

There should eb something cruel and unusual thought up for people who treat animals this way. What a horrible senseless thing for anyone to do.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Aug 2, 2005 -> 02:03 PM) Keep him. Keep who?

You guys gotta learn to ignore the morons. They are everywhere and will continue to post stupidity. Dont let them bring you to their level. There is no real arguments there, those guys arent arguing numbers or statistics or performance, they are talking about personal opinions. there is no argument for personal opinions, only more opinions.
