No Ripley, no Predators, just swarms of aliens against people who had no idea it was coming. I'd pay to see that.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 18, 2008 -> 12:46 PM) How do you know I am of the opinion you should never boo a hometown player? Sounds like that's what you've been saying in this thread. And your very next sentence (see bolded) says you wouldn't. QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 18, 2008 -> 12:46 PM) I wouldn't do it. I wouldn't yell at the guy next to me who does it. But you'd yell at a guy in a message board for suggesting they would boo a Sox player.

I'm not sure you can analogize a Legislator with other professions.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 18, 2008 -> 12:40 PM) Keep telling yourself that in regards to Sox great Paul Konerko. You seen that youtube clip yet of his granny? Give it a rest already. You are of the opinion that you never boo a home town player. Other people feel that you can. No one is right. It's everyone's individual prerogative if they want to boo or not.

Hmm...perhaps a pic of a favorite TV show character? An old school Sox logo? An animated .gif of a favorite Sox play?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 18, 2008 -> 09:06 AM) I can give you about $100 million reasons why we don't get one of those kind of pitchers.

It's human nature to be overly critical of an athlete that is severely under-performing.

Todd Jones is awful. I would jump out of a window if he were our closer.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 17, 2008 -> 04:38 PM) John Danks + Gavin Floyd + more. JC and BA won't do? Come on...BA is a king in Seattle. All he does it hit HRs over there.

Please Kenny. Make it happen!

Here's an interesting way to produce energy.

QUOTE (kyyle23 @ Jul 17, 2008 -> 03:58 PM) Well, find this available pitcher, then we can discusss him I realize money and contracts are always involved but I'm a dreamer and would love for the Sox to be involved in the Sabathia and Harden type deals that occur each season.

LOL. It's so life-like.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 17, 2008 -> 03:51 PM) Does John Danks count? I'd say so. Call me greedy 'cuz I want more of that.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jul 17, 2008 -> 03:50 PM) You say that like something is broken and needs to be fixed. Sure we turn around a pitcher here and there but for once I'd love to acquire a guy who we can plug in right away and know that he has a great chance of success.

What's with all the pitching projects we keep acquiring all the time? How about a solid pitcher that doesn't need Coop's magic?

Dang. I'll be flying to Manchester, NH on Sunday.

I had a promising career in Betamax-only adult films.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jul 17, 2008 -> 12:44 PM) Where did you see that? It was in a thread regarding some poll numbers and you were vehemently supporting McCain's case on winning.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 17, 2008 -> 12:41 PM) what's everyones names on tpm? Mines the same. Rarely do I post unless I see something stupid. I have yet to post but I just browsed through some comments and saw athomeboy_2000 with the Hulk version of McCain avatar that he recently sported on this site.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jul 17, 2008 -> 12:53 PM) Typically when numbers are "leaked" early about Obama's numbers, they are way of. I have two theories on this and both are equally likely. 1) People low in the organization see only some of the numbers. 2) The leaks are intended to show how his numbers are way beyond projected numbers and have a "wow" factor. See that you're posting on TPM.

Been watching the last 3 seasons of "Weeds". What a great show. Halfway through season 3 right now.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jul 17, 2008 -> 11:45 AM) Here's a big difference: Al Gore has literally made millions of dollars off of this movement, yet he doesn't seem to follow it himself. Ok but that doesn't change the fact that we are facing an energy crisis on a global scale. With populations increasing drastically in the upcoming decades we should get our asses in gear. Granted Gore's a douche for being a hypocrite but his message is still on point.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 17, 2008 -> 11:30 AM) We do this all of the time in this country. Heck look no further than the Jesse Jackson and Barry Bonds divides in this country. People who say one thing and do another tend to get marginalized. I'd be surprised if you could name one human being that wasn't a hypocrite about something at one point in their life.
