Folks who live in Chicago...
QUOTE (3 BeWareTheNewSox 5 @ Jul 31, 2009 -> 02:49 PM) He is texting/making jokes with Harold Reynolds and MLB Network crew. That should tell you how busy he is... Wait he seriously was? How could he find time for that if the deal was as last minute as everyone says it was.

Manny and Big Papi tested positive for steroids in 03
QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jul 31, 2009 -> 08:46 AM) And to those who are begging to have the whole list released... it'll never happen, at least not officially. The LAST thing baseball management wants to do is piss of the MLBPA by throwing their players under the bus. I don't think it would be MLB releasing it. It would be the government.

Manny and Big Papi tested positive for steroids in 03
QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Jul 31, 2009 -> 03:38 AM) A tree could have told you that Ortiz was cheating. I felt badly when the Yanks lost to the SawRx in 2004. Not only did it spawn terrible unspeakable s*** such as Fever Pitch, but it also offered all a glimpse as to what will happen when miserable, miserable cutesy loser franchises finally chance upon a World Championship. You will never hear the end of it. I hate that this has happened to baseball, but I'm also glad that Jimmy Fallon's movie can be further questioned and disregarded. The PED SawRx were a slightly more successful, less bumblef*** version of the Cubs until 2004. A pill here and there, two buddies jabbing each other in the ass with needles, and all of a sudden you have the most nauseating World Series Champions in forever. You couldn't hide in an Afghani cave from it. The only thing magical about the PED SawRx winning in 2004 and 2007 is that everyone chose to ignore the fact that Papi's head was comparable to a small hot air balloon, and that human beings were able to develop artificial means of achieving endurance and strength. Both are remarkable. On a side note, IIRC, and if I'm wrong correct me, wasn't Damon's name also associated with PED's at one point? I could have sworn that there was at least the briefest mention somewhere along the line. I've never read, but anticipate Curt Schilling's thoughts on all this craziness and tomfoolery in his blog. I'm literally putting down a Dostojevsky novel right now in anticipation. It's a shame for MLB. A full blown enema of the 104 who tested positive would suit the league far better than this steady drip drip that keeps you up all night. Sooner or later (with 'later' being a bad, bad thing for MLB) these names are going to surface. Just an FYI. Fever Pitch was coming out weather they won, or lost the series. But the ending was rewritten after they did. Arroyo thing is also BS. He's just trying to save face for when the list does come out.

AND THAT'S A WHITE SOX WINNER!!!
QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 31, 2009 -> 10:06 AM) If Beckham is really starting to get it defensively, there may be no need to move him back to ss. If we don't trade Lexi, that could be a good ss/3b combo for a while. It worked out for ARod. Short is a lot tougher to play. I don't care if it is Gordon's "natural position." Yes but its much easier to find a 3B that can give you .300 with 25 homers, then it is a SS or 2B. His bat is so much more valuable at short or 2nd. Basically at 3rd he is just a good player, at SS/2B he is one of the best players in the league.

Dome on life support?
QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Jul 30, 2009 -> 11:31 PM) http://score670.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=128&t=35430 I have no credible links to any official release, and harbor doubts as to the validity of this tidbit. I don't subscribe to Bobby Wade's twitter (or any twitter for that matter) but I guess there is a rumor going around (stemming from an alleged Wade tweet or blog post) that the Twins want to utilize the Dome for select discounted "Throwback" series in 2010 and perhaps beyond. I can't see this as being legit, especially given the timing (Sox recent s***show and subsequent b****ing about the Dome). With a new ballpark opening next year, wouldn't you want to milk that sucka till the last drop in it's inaugural season? Only way I can see the Twins in the Dome next year is if the new park isn't quite good to go in the first few (cold) weeks of the season. To use it throughout the summer? Can't see it. It's a great idea. There will be 78 games at the new park, and the 3 games at the dome will probably get high attendance just due to the novelty of the idea. Of course all 3 games will be vs the white sox no doubt.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 27, 2009 -> 12:27 PM) Just a heads up, the video quality isn't that good for the online version. And kudos for having an open mind about it. I watched half of it last night. It's pretty powerful, and terrifying at the same time. I turned away a couple of time because I didn't want to see what they were showing. But I've had beef, and chicken since watching it so it didn't sway me that much. I'll watch the 2nd half when I get around to it.

White Sox @ Twins, 7:10
QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 27, 2009 -> 06:44 PM) Mauer for Fields and Flowers? What? Well Fields would then become a rental to twins because of the changing of ballparks next year. So they might want someone else Bartolo Colon could fill Slowey's spot perhaps.

LOST!!!!
QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jul 27, 2009 -> 04:50 PM) I sure as hell hope this isn't the case. So, happy i could watch five seasons, love four of them, just for them to screw around on the mainland in some alternative universe for half-a-dozen episodes. part 2 of comic con, at 4:40 addresses you concerns

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 27, 2009 -> 12:07 PM) Check it out and let me know what you think. There isn't a whole lot of dialogue. Mostly video images. In fact you can watch it on google video for free:http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=6361872964130308142&ei=Ht9tStnnOqXSrQK5_8B2&q=earthlings&hl=en&client=firefox-a I'll watch it tonight.- Mark Buehrle Enjoys Hunting
QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 27, 2009 -> 11:47 AM) Curious if anyone here has seen the award winning documentary Earthlings. It's going to be biased documentary. Although its almost impossible to not be biased on this topic. Because you have to eat.- LOST!!!!
QUOTE (The Bones @ Jul 26, 2009 -> 11:08 PM) So, I'm all caught up now. Wow! Can't wait for next season. Feels weird not watching any Lost for the last week or so because I've been watching for a few months straight. I kinda want to go back and watch all 5 seasons again because I probably forgot so many things and I would be able to catch some things I missed with a second viewing. Well now that you are all caught up. I present you with your new best friend. lostpedia.com- Mark Buehrle Enjoys Hunting
QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 26, 2009 -> 10:08 PM) You really think humans have sharp, pointy teeth like a wolf, lion, or other predators? Perhaps you can demonstrate for me how a human can run down a deer or other prey and sink your sharp, pointy teeth into their hide like other predators do. Fact is our canine teeth are there to rip into meat weather you want to believe it or not. And nature gave us a brain to get food so that we don't have to run around like idiots trying to kill animals with our teeth and strength. The whole point of life is survival of the fittest, and because of our brain we are the fittest creatures on this planet so I don't feel guilty eating meat or killing animals to get it.- Danks on track for next start
QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 25, 2009 -> 02:51 PM) I'm not liking the fact that he's gonna start again in Minnesota though. Besides the first 5 or so batters he was pretty good in that start.- Richard causing good problem
QUOTE (WCSox @ Jul 26, 2009 -> 10:51 PM) And if he stays with Richard and Richard has a couple of bad starts next month, Soxtalk will tear him apart as well. After all, people here were calling for his head just a few weeks ago. Damned if he does, damned if he doesn't... The good news is that the Sox may have found their #4 starter for next season. Richard's stuff has always been there, and it appears that he's finally figuring out how to wield it. If he replaced Richard with Poreda or Torres I could take it. But Colon is worthless to this team, and its future. Good Job White Sox you give Richard a chance to prove himself, and then he does but you put him in the pen anyway.- Richard causing good problem
I have never criticized KW in my life. But this past month has been pissing me off. Allen for Pena, Wise over Anderson, and now Colon over Richard. Seriously there is no reason why a fat over the hill pitcher needs to be starting, when Clayton can.- LOST!!!!

Look out in nature animals kill animals all the time. I eat meat, and will continue to eat meat and if some animal is able to outsmart me then it can eat me because of my stupidity.- Fox Saturday Baseball
