QUOTE(JimH @ Jul 27, 2005 -> 11:24 AM) Steff is this a covert marketing survey that will be shared with people at the ballpark or elsewhere? I get the feeling it is ... Yea.

QUOTE(SpringfieldFan @ Jul 27, 2005 -> 10:22 AM) Folks, this is an honest question about an honest concern; I am not trying to stir things up or simply disagree to disagree. So...If Ozzie implements a "rest the regulars" policy so they are not banged up in the playoffs, could it cause them to get rusty by not playing together as often? The infielders (especially the SS and second baseman) need to always be on the same wavelength and always know and anticipate where eachother is. That comes with playing together continuously. I agree, so far it has not been a problem, but what if he decides to rest the regs even more as we go through the hot August stretch run? So my concern: will breaking that up frequently on the stretch drive cause them to lose their "gel" when playing together? Really, this may not be an intelligent concern, but it is an honest one, so set me straight. Oh Heaven for bid someone ask a question to rock the boat a little... :headshake Agree to disagree... it's such a nice thought.

QUOTE(winodj @ Jul 27, 2005 -> 10:30 AM) I think it would definitely make for a very interesting addition to the Chicago Skyline. It would definitely make it better, not worse. Ick. IMO, it would look horrible.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jul 27, 2005 -> 09:47 AM) I know the Sears Tower spires make a ton of money for the building. On the boat tour we just took we learned that when they first built the ST they couldn't get renters and the $$ made off the broadcasting abilities paid for the building for many years.

What do you guys think about him following the Sox over to the Score..? What's the general feeling on him..?

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jul 27, 2005 -> 09:20 AM) In our defense, there had been no thunder or lightning up to that point... Plus I was in the field with a leather glove It came out of no where by us also Mike.

Hopefully she can recover from this to lead a somewhat normal life.. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/8721125/ BTK killer’s wife granted an emergency divorce Judge waives waiting period, says woman's mental health is in danger Updated: 7:36 a.m. ET July 27, 2005 WICHITA, Kan. - A judge waived the usual 60-day waiting period and granted an immediate divorce Tuesday to the wife of BTK serial killer Dennis Rader, agreeing that her mental health was in danger. Rader didn’t contest the filing or appear for the hearing. He signed over the couple’s property and all his retirement benefits to Paula Rader, who had been married to him for 34 years. In a courtroom confession last month, Dennis Rader said that sexual fantasies had driven him to kill 10 people in the Wichita area between 1974 and 1991. As BTK — his own moniker for “Bind, Torture, Kill” — he taunted media and police in communications that eventually led to his arrest. His sentencing is set for Aug. 17. Paula Rader said in her divorce petition that her mental and physical condition has been adversely affected by the marriage. She also said that she and her incarcerated husband are incompatible and that he had failed to perform material marital duties and obligations. The couple have two grown children. The property settlement approved by the court includes the family home in Park City, the Wichita suburb where Dennis Rader, 60, worked as an ordinance compliance officer. It recently sold at auction for $90,000.

Thought maybe we could have one thread for those of us that care regarding their trip. Today they are looking for any damage.. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/8720825/ Long story and some good links at the link above.

QUOTE(TornLabrum @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 09:21 PM) I want to publicly thank Steff for doing this and sending me a copy so I could do the same at WSI. I was later getting it out because I was acting as my 86-year-old mother's chauffeur today down in Kankakee. I'm hoping the WSI folks can figure out a way to link to the .pdf file so you can just print it out. If they do, I'll let you guys know. Hal Vickery NP Hal.. for some reason I couldn't get it to post properly over there. For those here they can just copy the post and paste it into a word program, print it, then fax it..

As long as the money doesn't run out.. which I don't see happening, they'll be fine. Loved it when the one girl bought a $600 pair of Dior shoes last night.

QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 03:14 PM) Is this all soxtalk has become lately? All the threads are somehow like this or talking about a rumored trade. all in all, this place has become very boring lately. There's an interesting thread over on SLAP of Juggs calling everyone morons.

Anyone watch this show on MTV..? I watched the last season a few weeks ago when they had a marathon.. I nearly peed my pants. Steven reminds me of Jim from American Pie.
