Jimbo's Drinker

QUOTE(thedoctor @ Aug 9, 2007 -> 01:38 PM) agreed. anyone talking about an imminent firing isn't clear with the way ron guenther operates. if anything, the off court issues probably would push him closer to a firing than recruiting misses would. only time will tell whether those issues were isolated or evidence of a prgram that's out of control. at this point i'd tend to think the latter, although as an alumni i'm embarrassed by what's transpired off the court in the last year. in terms of the recruiting, it is no surprise that shumpert eliminated illinois. i've been fairly critical of weber's recruiting, but on this one i am not sure that he is totally to blame. from what i have heard, shumpert had a personality conflict with one or more members of the existing roster. this played into the decision. either way, i expect he'll choose unc, because it's clear that he's a big fan of the acc. as for illinois, whoever is to blame it's increasingly frustrating to see our top targets go elsewhere. now we are down to two targets who we are reportedly in good shape with right now. that said, we've been in good shape with plenty of recruits, it's closing that's been the issue and that is on weber. now, i don't think not landing these two kids would be disastrous in terms of the program because the 2008 class is weak and there really aren't any program changers out there. that said, this team badly needs a nice recruiting victory for perception's sake. that stuff matters to kids and future recruits and if kids see recruit after recruit spurning the program they're going to think something is amiss whether or not it really is. edit: apologies for the poorly written run-on sentences. Jeebus what a messy post. Just say this: WEBER CANT RECRUIT

In 2007, an internet phenomenon known as "Rickrolling" began to spread rapidly. Its origins can be traced to 4chan, where there existed previously a fad called "duckrolling": claiming a link has something interesting or amusing in its target thread (on 4chan) but which turns out to be a thread with an initial "duckroll" image; thus, the user has been duped, or "duckrolled", much like a snipe hunt on the Internet. "Rickrolling" consists of the same thing, but routed to Astley's video of "Never Gonna Give You Up".[2] Notable examples of this meme entering the mainstream are Carson Daly's attempt to Rickroll his audience [1] and a performance of the song in the Family Guy episode "Meet the Quagmires." One hyperlink frequently used is a classic MTV version of "Never Gonna Give You Up" posted on YouTube on November 27, 2006. As of August 8, 2007, the YouTube video had been viewed 2 million times. Discography My question is this...how do i get this to work in gmail or on lotus notes. I would want a message to say click here, and it be directly linked to a youtube video link.?

QUOTE(Sonik22 @ Aug 8, 2007 -> 01:26 AM) I missed it, what was the question and what did barry say? I forgot the questoin, but he said something like pedro all that comes out of your mouth is kniving.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Jul 31, 2007 -> 02:35 PM) Wow, that's definitely unexpected. Could mean lots of things I suppose. probably KW begging other GM's to remember the white sox.......

probably to announce his extension....dammit KW.

wow here comes our vaunted minor leagues to fill up the 40 man roster....time to sell the seaon tickets with a future of jason beurgoise.

QUOTE(WHITESOXRANDY @ Jul 31, 2007 -> 02:19 PM) It looks like they'll package this prospect along with the return from Boston for Dye and add Contreras to the Marlins for Cabrera. I think I heard Levine say this. Not sure ....I wasn't listening that closely. yeah and pigs fly.

37 men on the 40 and we do nothing with it....you suck KW. Call up the Long Island Ducks and get Ricky Henderson.
