QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Aug 24, 2005 -> 12:10 PM) He never got above A ball with the Cubs. Thank you.

QUOTE(southsideirish @ Aug 24, 2005 -> 11:54 AM) Under his direction, the White Sox were named 2000 Organization of the Year by Baseball America, USA Today and Howe SportsData. Which was sooooo not deserved. Someone help.. didn't Garland start a few times for the Cubs at the major level..?

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Aug 24, 2005 -> 10:45 AM) Sounds like it was more of a deal than a bet. You chug this milk, and we'll give you $500. It said he provided $500 worth of entertainment, so they must've paid him the money. On another note, I wouldn't recommend doing the gallon challenge. My buddy did it last year and he was sore for about a day. He was about a sip away from doing it before he "lost" it. The sound was funny, though, as it sounded like someone dumped a bucket of water into the toilet. Why was he sore..? From getting sick? I love milk, don't drink it by the gallon, but it's never made me sick. Must be a guy thing..

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Aug 24, 2005 -> 10:38 AM) That's f***ed up. Where was a bat boy gonna get $500.00? 1 week of tips.

QUOTE(tonyho7476 @ Aug 24, 2005 -> 09:13 AM) Definately. We still should make the playoffs...but I am realizing that 'not making it' is becoming a possibility. I just hate when i look in the Sun Times and I see this team being compared with the '69 Cubs....yuck. I'm fine with it. As a matter of fact.. I hope we lose the lead, only to regain it back.. barely make it into the playoffs... then kick the s*** out of everyone sweeping all the way to the series. "White Sox make greatest comeback of the century" BTW.. I'm only half serious.

QUOTE(Y2HH @ Aug 24, 2005 -> 06:50 AM) I disagree, the Sox need fans exactly like him. A fan who blames a curse...? States that this team has no chance...? Eh... pass.

Congrats!! Have fun. And drive safely!!

And guys.. be sure not to skip page 13... Casey is very friendly to the camera.

QUOTE(SnB @ Aug 23, 2005 -> 04:54 PM) i wish i was as pretty as those dumb as brick girls No... trust me you don't.

I can't find the other thread, but the kids of LB fame had their prom a few weeks ago. Here's a good one with Kristin in it.. Eh.. not working. It's from the photographers site. Oh hell.. here if anyone is interested. http://web.sendtoprint.net/proofbook/Alcon...base.asp?Page=1 Event code : Alcone-SarahProm A HS girlfriend's cousin goes to school with these kids. Strange bunch. edit: fixed the link.

I forgot the $20 Sox processing fee. The total charge for 2 seats to all games would be $2795.

QUOTE(SuperSteve @ Aug 23, 2005 -> 03:47 PM) Read them in order...Steff you know I know how waivers and everything work. I was talking about the original post (the first one I quoted here). I was saying why those players would not make it through in reality, not why I thought the Sox were crazy to put them on waivers. Sorry for the mixup guys, I should have quoted the first post instead of the second, sorry. I assumed (and scratched my head when I saw your initial reply). No worries. This topic has been beaten to death.

QUOTE(RibbieRubarb @ Aug 23, 2005 -> 03:39 PM) I'm right there with ya! I know. Your seats were not much cheaper than ours, and we all paid the same for extras. MLB being in charge of setting the prices is bulls***.

QUOTE(SnB @ Aug 23, 2005 -> 03:26 PM) way to make me cry steff Way to make YOU cry.. how do you think I felt writing the check for FOUR seats.. PLUS extras...???

QUOTE(CubKilla @ Aug 23, 2005 -> 02:55 PM) How in the hell do face value tix to all potential White Sox playoff games with a parking pass total up to over $2500? The only thing I can think of is that he bought up alot of seats. This is if he only has 2 seats and didn't buy any extras. $55 X 2= $110 + $15 = $125 X 3 games = $375 $100 X 2= $20 + 15 = $25 X 4 games = $860 $185 X 2= $370 + 15 = $385 X 4 games = $1540 Total - $2775

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Aug 23, 2005 -> 01:14 PM) Then you would have to look at the population, and determine the number of smokers vs. skydivers vs. drivers and figure out the rates directly attributable to dying from each. Too much damn work and it's rather pointless, as steff has said I think 4 times in this thread now. Not too much damn work. Not possible. The numbers of smokers and skydivers, I'm gonna use my common sense here.. and guess... is not a question on the census thus not avaliable. I suppose someone who really wanted to know the infomation could go door to door across the country and gather the actual numbers...

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Aug 23, 2005 -> 12:56 PM) Why do people continue to argue with Jeckle regarding Gload's defense? The same arguement is just going to come up the next time someone mentions Gloads name, I don't see the point. You aren't seriously asking that question..

How in the hell does someone do this to a child... :headshake http://www.wral.com/news/4834987/detail.html Mother Of Gaston Child Abuse Victim Seeks Custody As Authorities Investigate New Claim GASTON, N.C. -- The biological mother of a 4-year-old suspected child abuse victim says she will do anything to gain custody of her child and will soon begin fighting in court. Meanwhile, Gaston police say there may be another victim in the case. Investigators say the 4-year-old girl was locked in the attic in a house on West Hill Street, was force-fed, had her face rubbed in vomit and her head flushed in a toilet. They are also investigating the possibility that there may have been sexual abuse as well. On Monday, authorities arrested the girl's father, Daniel Gibbs; his girlfriend, Phyllis Evans; the girl's uncle, Douglas Gibbs; and grandmother, Mary Gibbs. All four are charged with felony child abuse. "I'm scared for her," said Susan Harrison of her child, who has been placed in foster care. "She doesn't know what to expect from one day to the next." Harrison did not live with her daughter, but says she had visitation rights. "I want a chance to raise my daughter the way she is supposed to be raised -- with love, care and tenderness," says Susan Harrison "Every time I would go to bring her back, she would scream, cry, kick, fuss, beg me 'no' -- tell me 'no, mommy!'" Harrison says her daughter's place is with her and she will go to court Thursday to begin her fight for custody. "I'll fight 'til I get her back," she said. "I don't care how long or what it takes." Although the child is doing well physically, Harrison says her daughter needs emotional support. "I want a chance to raise my daughter the way she is supposed to be raised -- with love, care and tenderness. She needs someone to understand her, be patient with her." Since Monday's arrests, another mother has come forward saying her 2 1/2-year-old who visited the home may also have been abused. Authorities are investigating that claim. Besides the abuse, police say the family and dozens of pets lived in squalor not fit for humans or animals. Northampton Animal Control has removed cats and dogs from the home and is trying to place them.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Aug 23, 2005 -> 12:23 PM) How about the obese? From what I understand, most of them don't have a 'glandular' condition or an actual clinical 'addiction' to eating. You don't wake up one morning and suddenly you're 200 lbs overweight. Don't they eat themselves to obesity by choice? At least a smoker can say they became addicted. Thoughts? Before anyone else says it.. some diagnosed as obese are addicted to food. That aside, I agree with you. Any and every activity in the world could fit this. Hell.. people die from a slip and fall in the bathtub... so would taking a bath or shower qualify..? Like I said... too much time this one's hands. And stupid for the paper to give it attention. Extremely disrespectful to Jennings - who by the way had quite 10 years previous IIRC.

Eh... then I suppose those that drive cars, ride bikes, hell.. walk outside or live outside of a plastic bubble and breathe anything other than "clean" oxygen could also be classified that way. Some people have way too much time on their hands.
