QUOTE(bkmoney @ Jul 11, 2007 -> 09:32 AM) i think that he should have played pujols. i mean i like rowand but pujols is basically jesus or something i read something like la russa wanted to keep a player in case it went to extra innings, but i disagree they had a shot to win it right there with the bases loaded. seems like a bonehead move to me I like Aaron as well, but Pujols is at least 10x the player he is and should have been in there.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Jul 10, 2007 -> 10:48 AM) Nah, I'm working on that right now Steff. I'm not closing this DB down and we may actually be able to do this without losing posts (key word being may) or any of the info. We have a lot of things in the pipeline right now but the good news is when this is done it should be screaming (key word being should). The stuff done last night worked brilliantly. Give me about 25-40 minutes or so Steff and I'll have your stuff (you don't have to log out or anything). Uhhh.. it's been 7 hours. You still working on that...?

NASCAR officials have confirmed that the husband of International Speedway Corp. President Lesa France Kennedy, plastic surgeon Dr. Bruce Kennedy, died today when a plane he was piloting crashed in Florida. Fire Chief Gerard Ransom of Sanford, Fla. has confirmed at least four other passengers were killed -- including two children. Kennedy was piloting the twin-engine Cessna 310 aircraft when it went down about 8:40 AM ET. The plane crashed shortly after takeoff from Daytona International Airport for the families.

Rumor has it she's been fired. If she is divorced her ex potentially has a hell of a custody issue

QUOTE(Controlled Chaos @ Jul 10, 2007 -> 03:53 PM) My buddy was a cop. He was talking to some homies on the street and asked the one what happened to his face. He said his old lady hit him with a smove. My buddy was like a smove? What the hell is a smove? He said you know you smove your clothes with it. My friend goes you mean an iron? and the dude goes...man you white people got words for everything!!!!!! OMG..

http://cbs2chicago.com/topstories/local_story_191075534.html Video up. No mention of a divorce so I would guess she's still married. Neighbors claim she's been a regular there. Might not be so bad if she was professionally dressed and didn't lug her kids along to cover the story. Extremely unprofessional.

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Jul 10, 2007 -> 03:23 PM) After that I have to go home and wursh my clothes. Is that more of a pronunciation thing or do they really spell it like that? Kinda like axe, ie.. "lemme axe you a question...."

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Jul 10, 2007 -> 02:36 PM) Well, with all due respect to the pope, he can go screw himself. We should do our best to be tolerant and respectful of all religions (outside of the violent extremists of course), and to not only say screw that but ALSO be arrogant enough to say your church is the only true church is asinine. How about you actually show some effort to get the child molestors away and clean your* own closet before you go and try and clean others, asshole? Somewhere up there, Jesus is looking down and shaking his head at this guy. Do as I say and not as I do I see.... QUOTE(Soxy @ Jul 10, 2007 -> 02:42 PM) Uhhhh, technically, he can't. . . Point Soxy.

There is a rumor he's going over to Sirius which for his sake I hope isn't true. Ferrall will eat him alive and since it's uncensored he won't be able to take any calls without enduring some potty mouths who would love to tell him what they really think.

QUOTE(iamshack @ Jul 10, 2007 -> 12:54 PM) I'm sure it was not a promise, but more so Kenny telling Aaron when he traded him (and perhaps again later at some point) something to the effect of "we'll do anything in our power to get you back, if something becomes feasible, Aaron." Kenny has referred to trying to get Aaron back, and Aaron has let it slip a bit when asked about whether Kenny told him he would try and get him back. It certainly didn't involve anythng unethical or unprofessional however. The way you type it, and the way it was presented to me via PM, are two completely different scenerios.

QUOTE(Greg The Bull Luzinski @ Jul 9, 2007 -> 10:01 PM) Borass reminds me of Jim Carrey's character from Dumb and Dumber when he sells the dead parrot to the blind kid. What blind idiot will sign Crede and his back to a huge contract? I know one that won't and this is a case where I am glad KW won't deal with Borass. The same type of idiot that signed Maggs.

QUOTE(mmmmmbeeer @ Jul 10, 2007 -> 12:27 PM) lol. how old was his oldest when you had this conversation, 9? His oldest is years younger than 9. On topic, If anyone wants to believe that Kenny Williams made some sort of back room promise to Aaron not knowing at all the atmosphere of this team TWO years later... I have a bridge in Brooklyn for sale. Not to mention how ethically and professionally wrong it would be.

QUOTE(CanOfCorn @ Jul 10, 2007 -> 12:15 PM) Not only CAN she be this stupid...she IS this stupid. Forget the person of interest angle...she has just made HERSELF news...which is probably the biggest no-no in journalism. I wonder who tipped off Channel 2...? News crews have been living out of vans all over Plainfield for weeks following this guy. There were a group of them following him around the Jewel at 59 and 135th last Monday night.

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Jul 10, 2007 -> 12:00 PM) Also, for what it's worth, at the time Rowand was traded, a source very, very close to Aaron said the White Sox (specifically Kenny Williams) went out of their way to assure him they will do everything in their power to re-acquire him (as early as the 2006 trade deadline). I trust this source an awful lot; so, it appears there would still be some interest on the Sox's behalf. Completely ridiculous.

QUOTE(Controlled Chaos @ Jul 10, 2007 -> 11:33 AM) When you read the headline of the article, it seems like she was hooking up with the husband. Still a very dumb move, but not as bad as I had first thought. Love the picture they used of her on Sun times. Initially I thought that also. Weird all around. This guy is a person of interest in the suspected murder of his wife and you think it's a good think to have your kids around him... good grief. Stupid people shouldn't breed.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Jul 10, 2007 -> 09:40 AM) You shouldn't have been. We didn't mess with anything on this database last night. He was helping me.. and well.. you can guess how that worked out.

http://www.suntimes.com/news/metro/462169,...r071007.article BY ROMAN MODROWSKI Staff Reporter NBA star Antoine Walker was the victim of a robbery at his River North residence Monday evening, his Chicago-based agent Mark Bartelstein confirmed. The masked robbers stole cash, jewelry and a vehicle about 6:30 p.m. It was the second time Walker has been the victim of a robbery. He was robbed of a $50,000 watch at gunpoint while sitting in a car on the South Side during the summer of 2000. » Click to enlarge image Chicago resident Antoine Walker, who played for Mount Carmel High School, is a forward for the Miami Heat. ''He's shook up,'' Bartelstein said. ''Who wouldn't be? ''It's a horrible, horrible thing.'' Several people were seen standing outside the fenced townhouse on West Huron Street late Monday. A man who identified himself as Walker's manager said of the player, "He's too upset to talk. No comment." Walker, 30, starred at Mount Carmel High School and currently is a forward for the Miami Heat. He is often seen frequenting Chicago hot spots. Last November, Walker's mother went to court to deny any direct association between her son and alleged ripoff artist Terry Faulkner, whose $150,000 Maybach luxury car once was owned by Walker. The car was seized by police as part of a six-month mortgage fraud investigation. "Antoine used to own the car but he never met or ever had anything to do with Faulkner," said Diane Walker, who also managed her son's business affairs. "I handle all of Antoine's car deals." Police News Affairs said an investigation was continuing.

http://www.suntimes.com/business/feder/461...feder10.article In too deep? Pool party with missing woman's husband could sink NBC 5 reporter July 10, 2007 BY ROBERT FEDER Sun-Times Columnist Amy Jacobson, a reporter for WMAQ-Channel 5, is in hot water with her bosses for going swimming on her day off with the estranged husband of a missing Plainfield woman. Dressed in a two-piece swimsuit, Jacobson brought her two young sons, ages 3 and 2, with her Friday when she swam in the backyard pool of Craig Stebic. Lisa Stebic vanished from the southwest suburban home April 30. She and her husband, parents of two children, were in the midst of a divorce. NBC 5's Amy Jacobson brought her two young sons, ages 3 and 2, when she swam in the backyard pool of Craig Stebic. When Jacobson informed her bosses of the pool party, insiders said, they told her she had used poor judgment and had "crossed the line" of journalistic ethics. The incident was captured on videotape by a photographer from WBBM-Channel 2 who was shooting from a neighbor's yard. As of Monday, the CBS-owned station had chosen not to air it. Sources said Jacobson told her bosses that she was on her way to the East Bank Club in River North to go swimming with her sons Friday when she received a call from Craig Stebic's sister, asking her to come to his house to talk about the case. Jacobson immediately was taken off the Stebic story and was told to hire a lawyer. She did not return calls Monday. Channel 5 officials declined to comment, saying through a spokeswoman that "the matter is under review." Their options range from a formal reprimand to suspension to termination. Jacobson, a native of northwest suburban Mount Prospect, joined NBC-owned Channel 5 in 1996.

QUOTE(Maverick0984 @ Jul 10, 2007 -> 09:05 AM) I'm just saying it isn't the same, no need to get upset about it. If I were upset this thread would be a lot more animated. Simply responding that you are incorrect in generalizing.

QUOTE(Maverick0984 @ Jul 10, 2007 -> 08:53 AM) Perhaps. But true. Perhaps to those that give a s***. To the rest it's not true.

QUOTE(Maverick0984 @ Jul 10, 2007 -> 08:28 AM) Probably because it is user edited, not "official" and thus not carrying as much "e-weight" if you will. Stupid.
