That's the least excited i've seen someone immediately after throwing a no hitter.

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

QUOTE(danman31 @ Aug 31, 2007 -> 01:58 PM) What do you U of I fans think of this weekend's game in St. Louis? I'll be there, anyone else making the trek? Win the turnover battle and we'll have a chance to win. I don't expect to win, but I fully expect to be in the game with a chance to win late in the game. Show some flashes of good football out there, mainly in the passing game and on special teams (this means you punt team), and we'll go from there. A win would be fabulous and would really set us up well to try to get 6 wins. I'll say Mizzou will win 27-20.

Wow, that's terrible.

I don't understand this whole "it was stolen" thing and then 10 minutes later "yeah I did it." Sounds like his brain wasn't functioning properly... IMO he was hiding something, but he took the "smart" route and ditched the scene. Note, I am not condoning it, he just did what he knew would get him in much, much less trouble.

I'm trying to picture this - so the guy with legs sits in the seat and the guy with no legs is on his lap...this is like when your parents would let you 'drive' the car by letting you sit in their lap and you'd hold the wheel while they were holding it as well. They just took it to a whole other level.

Solid job by the students who got word of this and helped put a stop to it before it started, wow

Sister ended up in the hospital today due to carbon monoxide poisoning at her apartment. The level in her apartment was up to 66 when the firemen got there. Kind of a scary day for all. It started when they didn't have a carbon monoxide detector in their apartment when they got in yesterday (which is apparently a felony), then when asked to check on the situation since the one they put in went off, they replaced it with a broken one that had no batteries in it. You can take a guess what's coming next.

Man, these Sox emails are always pricelss:

Two things I'd do: 1) Figure out the school size you want. Do you want to be immersed in 30,000+ or do you prefer a smaller school? That's a decision that is pretty key I think. 2) How far do you want to be away from home? A drive away, a long drive away, a flight away? I went to U of I and I liked it a lot. I can't really comment on the other schools. U of I has a pretty good business program from what I can tell/have heard, I don't know where it ranks amongst those other schools. I'd try to narrow your choices to 3-4 and then try to visit them. You still have plenty of time to get those trips done.

That's the dumbest baseball play i've seen in a long time, nice job Gonzalez. What a f***ing joke.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Aug 24, 2007 -> 08:56 PM) So glad I passed on the game tonight, wow. It's not worth the time, money, or effort for this crap at all.

QUOTE(SoxPride56 @ Aug 24, 2007 -> 01:28 PM) Is Hawk and DJ doing radio? If so, why? They were having technical difficulties on comcast. So it was a screen with the logos and them doing essentially radio. It came on in the bottom of this inning.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Aug 24, 2007 -> 01:24 PM) um... he just hit a double. Um...no

Nice, Hawk and DJ doing radio.

Over at Stuy's boards, skihawk says that "i found out today that there will be NO visible changes to the hawks sweater. the only thing changing is the fabric and the cut. i was told "from 100 feet away, you'd never know the difference". excellent news. also, the new slogan for this year kicks ass, but i can't share it yet. sorry." He works for the Score so he knows what he's talking about. These are two pieces of very good news. I'm really interested to see what this slogan/marketing campaign is. Season can't start soon enough. http://stuy.proboards51.com/index.cgi?acti...ge=2#1187934545

The support of Vick, I believe, has more to do with people's upbringing and now current superstar and wealthy status where they live in a dream world than it does with just the color of their skin. As Wilbon said yesterday, maybe if these guys take the earphones off and listen and pay attention to the world, their comments would be a lot different. People who "wish Vick the best" are idiots though. Why does he deserve the best? GMAFB. He deserves hell and then some.

Tarp on, pouring hard again. If the weather wasn't supposed to be terrible tomorrow they would have already scheduled the DH.

They are actually gonna play this thing, unbelievable. 915 to 930 start time.

f*** off.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Aug 22, 2007 -> 11:59 PM) You really need to chillax about the Cubs. The Cardinals are still on the charge, and even if the Cubs make the playoffs, the NL at least has a few good teams. I know your worried because of what the Cardinals did in 2005, but that's a once in a lifetime thing. Plus, the Cubs starting pitching really isn't 1/100th as good as people think and will be exposed in October if they get there. Relax, enjoy life.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Aug 22, 2007 -> 10:42 PM) Found it (oddly enough it was exactly a month ago today that I wrote this): So Sunday was the latest in the season that the Sox have found themselves alone in last place since 1989. You fail to ever disappoint.

Just curious, when was the last time the Sox were in 5th place at least, say, a month or two into the season? Edit: I mean before this year. Have they ever been in 5th a decent way into the season since they went to 3 divisions?

I was positive this was an error on the bottom line when i first saw the score. Jeezus.
