QUOTE(Greg Hibbard @ Jul 18, 2005 -> 02:38 PM) Whoa, Steff. I am a White Sox fan. Believe it or not, White Sox fans can occasionally point out that others teams are to be reckoned with while remaining White Sox fans. OK. Do that. Maybe on the Sports bar board. And, uh.. whoa, yourself.. not me.

Hmmmph.. something stinks.

QUOTE(Greg Hibbard @ Jul 18, 2005 -> 02:34 PM) For starters, in 2004, they added a guy who won 20 games in 2003. How bout that. Dave Justice in 2000. Do you really want me to run down a laundry list? Please.. don't. Since this is the Pale Hose Forum. Maybe you could list the Yanks transaction on the Sports Bar board.. or maybe a Yankee board.

QUOTE(Greg Hibbard @ Jul 18, 2005 -> 02:28 PM) Steff, what exactly is weird about this thread? I'm just pointing out that while we are cruising along at a good clip, another team has compiled the identical record we have over the past two plus months and they are gonna be a force to be reckoned with. I think it's easy to dismiss the Yankees because of their streakiness this year. However, when you look at that 38-22 in the last 60, look at their payroll, their roster and their history of going out and getting guys, it's certainly much more scary than just looking at the surface record of just a few games over .500.... Take a look at our record against the Yanks over the past few years.. I don't fear them in the least. And it's weird because I think it is. Just my opinion.

It's Brando's birthday today... Can we invite him back for a one day only special appearance.. ?

QUOTE(Greg Hibbard @ Jul 18, 2005 -> 02:13 PM) I hope you guys are right, because I think they are one good starter away from being scary with that lineup and that bullpen. 1...?? Anyone else think this is kinda a weird thread..?

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Jul 18, 2005 -> 11:02 AM) This thread got to 5 pages how? Thanks for adding to it..

QUOTE(KevHead0881 @ Jul 18, 2005 -> 10:53 AM) But saying that they WERE indirect shots at Frank would be pure speculation. So far this year, I've heard Pauly do nothing but compliment Frank...directly, that is. I don't even care what they were.. shots, not shots. Doesn't matter. I just think it's best to focus on the great season they are having. I don't see the point in bringing up how good anyone else is/was/etc. I think there is more than enough material for Paul to be praising his current teammates and don't understand why he needs to praise others.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Jul 18, 2005 -> 10:45 AM) The Clayton comment and this one are totally different. Clayton was released by the Sox and considered a cancer by members of the team and management. Ordonez was the best player on the team during Konerko's time here. His teammates respected him and management offered him the largest contract in team history. Konerko is far from the only one with the team who feels the way he does. I'll take that bet.

QUOTE(TheDybber @ Jul 18, 2005 -> 10:21 AM) Sorry Casey, can't hear you from 15 games up. b****. LMAO!!

QUOTE(YASNY @ Jul 18, 2005 -> 10:10 AM) Geez. People are touchy today. :headshake YAS.. you've met my friends pot and kettle, right.. ?

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Jul 18, 2005 -> 10:05 AM) Naturally; I felt that was implied. I have no idea what he was getting at. Whatever. Eh.. pay no attention to the old crabby fart.

QUOTE(KevHead0881 @ Jul 18, 2005 -> 09:31 AM) ^^^^^^^^^^ By my count, this is about the 4th or 5th thread about something "terrible" that Paul said this season, and I don't remember any of them being remotely rational. This one takes the cake. There is absolutely no harm in this statement. He said Maggs is the best player he's ever played with, and you can make a strong case that he's right. He didn't say he was the only great player he played with, nor did he intentionally put anybody down. If a player somehow takes this personally, they should probably grow thicker skin. No.. he didn't say "the only great player".. he said "the greatest".

QUOTE(YASNY @ Jul 18, 2005 -> 09:07 AM) After thinking about it, this whole damn thread is stupid. There is nothing wrong with what Konerko said, and if you think there is then you're just looking for something to complain about because you dislike Paul. Ridiculous. I'm out of here. Bye YAS.. :rolly

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Jul 18, 2005 -> 09:05 AM) Oh I agree. Overall Frank is no doubt teh best. But Paul didn't play with Frank during those years. Maggs has been the while Paul was here. I'll agree with that.. and I have no problem with Paul thinking that.. however.. is it necessary to call 2 ex Sox great players when you're team is currently in first place having the best season in 80 years.. 12 games up, etc, etc..?? That's where I find this all funny.. and sad. Not just Paul.. but every single one of the guys whenever they are asked should be saying nothing but things about this team and the awesome year they are having. JMO..

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Jul 18, 2005 -> 09:04 AM) He tells what he believes is the truth, and he supports his friends. Obviously his "leadership" hasn't been that bad this season because everyone has said great things about Paul, and NO ONE has come out and said anything bad about what Paul is saying. If someone wanted to say something, you can bet the reporter would find that person. As it is, nobody in the clubhouse cares. Juan probably doesn't even know that Paul said Royce is the best SS (he meant defensively) hes played with. Why? HE DOESN"T CARE. None of them do. It's because they have something Paul lacks... class. When in doubt.. keep your mouth shut. Paul will learn soon enough.. right around contract talk time. :rolly
