QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Aug 16, 2005 -> 02:27 AM) I'm equating that none of the stuff said has nothing to do with baseball by both parties. You also said you'll side with Hawk over Mariotti on anything for being there blah blah blah. I wasn't equating abortion with a sport, I was equating a hot topic with another hot topic. Hawk also needs to shut the f*** up because he wasn't even discussed in the article. Where's Hawk ripping Morrisey?? All parties are wrong, but none are more wrong than Hawk. Nite, Hawk and Jay have a had a personal problem with each other for a long time. Jay has had his say about Hawk plenty of times without Hawk saying anything, just because Hawk turned around and took some shots at Jay without being provoked TODAY doesnt mean he wasnt provoked previous to today. I have read some pretty awful things that Jay has said about Hawk, and it would eat me up too. Was it childish? Yes. Was it out of place Yes. Was it funny? Most certainly yes. Was it uncalled for? No. If it was uncalled for, than everything Jay ever has written about was also uncalled for. How are you going to assign blame to Hawk here? These two have been acting like schoolyard king-s***s for years, it isnt going to stop now. Just laugh at them and read Jays articles and notice Hawks response. But abortion? Not even in the same sentence. Bad correlation buddy, it has no place in your argument.

Clarett is a piece of s***. This kid has been living on silver spoons his entire life, and every time something goes bad, he gets pouty and tries to force everyone to give him what he wants. I watched an ESPN special report on Clarett(probably one of the many reasons he is such a spoiled brat) and all he could talk about was how tough it was, but he was gonna make it. Every shot from practice i saw of him, he looked overmatched. I hope Shanahan lets him go with the first team in a pre-season game, I hope Clarett is just annihilated. Shanahan needs to realize that he cant make gold out of EVERY running back.

Anyone chatting tonite?

On Sportsnite tonite the Sox beat reporter said that KW said during his interview that they basically have the trade out there, and they have done as best as they possibly can, and its up to the other side to decide to do it or not. Kenny going through the media?

QUOTE(SpringfieldFan @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 05:12 PM) From the Red's fansite: No confirmation, or backup resources but a fan over there is saying: Redszone Take it for what its worth. SFF Reading stuff like that puts a smile on my face For a while I was saying to myself it wasnt gonna happen, now I am starting to believe it will. Cubs Levine was saying it wasnt going to happen, now that he thinks it will happen, im starting to think that the baseball people are starting to talk about. If some of those guys are talking about it, something has to be happening a little bit. At least thats how my mind works.

QUOTE(spataro51 @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 03:38 PM) AT ONE POINT I WAS THINKING THAT THIS DEAL WAS FOR SURE FOR THE MOST PART GOING TO HAPPEN. BUT I AM NOW SECOND GUESSING MYSELF AND THINKING THAT WE ARE GETTING OUR HOPES UP FOR NOTHING. IN MY OPINION IF THE SOX REALLY WANTED HIM THEY WOULD OF CLAIMED HIM.... I KNOW THAT MEANS THE SOX WOULD OF GOT STUCK WITH THE WHOLE CONTRACT AND ALL THAT STUFF. BUT AS IT LOOKS NOW THEIR IS TO MUCH OBSTACLES IN THE WAY, BECAUSE THE PEOPLE WE SEND TO CINCI ALSO HAS TO CLEAR WAIVERS AND REALLY ANY ONE OF OUR PROSPECTS THAT ARE GOOD WILL BE CLAIMED.......BUT I STILL HAVE HOPE. STOP YELLING AT ME! Seriously though, the Sox are trying to get a trade done without having to claim the entire contract. They are trying to make the trade look better in the long run.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 02:39 PM) Speaking of cool conspiracies, could Atlantis have been found??? There was a story about this on CNN the other day. there is a guy who thinks, based on landmarks and a aerial map, that he has found the lost city of Atlantis in South America, more specifically off the coast of Brazil. The problem with this theory(as presented by the pessimists in the story) is that the story of Atlantis is said to have originated from the philosopher Plato. Plato's story is more of an eyewitness account, and there is really no way that Plato could have traveled to South America to witness such an event, and it is even more unlikely that he would travel back after witnessing the event and tell the story. The same people also mentioned that they think the idea itself is a hoax. the stories of Homer and the Illiad was very popular during Plato's time, and the thought was that Plato came up with the story of Atlantis to "one-up" other philosophers. The story is fantastic, but there really isnt alot of concrete evidence.

QUOTE(longshot7 @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 02:46 PM) Just listened to Gammons on Dan Patrick Show - he said there are some other teams interested, but still unsure if a deal would get done. Said it would greatly help the Sox while Pods is out (so he can heal) but suggested the Sox move Rowand to LF. I'm not sure I get this - Rowand is younger, faster, and a better CFer at this point. Move Griff to LF until Scotty gets back and then platoon him and Carl. Ahhh, The Red Sox arent interested so Gammons doesnt really care.

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.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Aug 14, 2005 -> 01:41 PM) Daver eh what does that mean?

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.
