Not nearly as high as the chances of you getting caught with a new ID and getting rebanned. -
MLB considering no crowds allowed on Opening Day?

MLB Final Roster Options out of Spring Training
southsider2k5 replied to Minoso-Pierce-Allen-HOF's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Problem #1. A baseball message board does not fall under "education". That only applies to ACTUAL educational entities. A college, an elementary school, etc. A baseball message board is not in that category. Not even in the gray as a maybe. Problem #2. "Fair Use" is a short snippet of the story, not the entire F'ing article. (I even put the most important part in bold AND italics so that you would be sure to read it.) Problem #3. You are not the victim here. As a user of Soxtalk and a guest on this website, you are expected to follow the forum rules. Even after repeatedly being asked to do so, you decided that your errant interpretation of copyright law was more valid than the people who own and run this page, thus putting the team that runs this in legal jeopardy. This is not OK. When a user repeatedly ignores the rules of the page in exchange for their own point of view, you will run into hostility, as this page has been functioning for nearly 20 years, and we aren't going to endanger it because you feel you are right. Putting this into danger is going to anger people, and create hostility. If you have a problem with this, feel free to "prefer to stick to private associates, friends and professional colleagues who have asked why I share experience and perspective." Problem #4. We tried subtly and with discretion asking you to not create copyright violations on our page, but you decided the rules didn't apply to you and did it anyway. Problem #5. Your definition of "mutual courtesy" seems to be only a one way street. Problem #6. No one has censored anything related to your "point of view." The only materials which have been removed are the copyrighted ones. That is the policy of this page, and will continue to be so, no matter how wrong your opinion is of the actions. Problem #7. If legal action were to emerge because of your actions, this page would voluntarily turn over all of your related identifying information to the authorities and cooperate in any investigation, as well as show proof of the actions we took to prevent your illegal acts. Problem #8. If the rules here are not something you want to follow, please feel free to find a new home. If you keep breaking the rules, we will help you start the journey to a new home. -

Let me put this very clearly. Posting entire articles on a message board isn't for "educational purposes", nor is it "fair use". Websites get sued for this, and this page will not be one of them. This is not up for discussion. This is not a dialogue. This has been, and will continue to be the policy at Soxtalk. ANY more posting of materials in this matter will lead to an immediate and permanent revocation of posting privileges on this page. -
The problem is historically if you try to time the bottom, you probably miss it, and the first appreciable move to the upside. We have a saying on the trading floor about people who pick bottoms. They get shit on their fingers.

This is your tank day reminder. Now is not the time to panic sell. If you didn't already sell, you probably missed your window. if anything, this is a bargain hunting day, assuming you are investing for the long term.

The new FutureSox dot com - it's here! Give it a look.
southsider2k5 replied to NorthSideSox72's topic in Pale Hose Talk
The work that has been done to build FutureSox can't be praised enough. Congratulations team and everyone who has had a part in this! It is literally one of the top content providers for ANY White Sox related page, especially one that is fully independent. -
Hawk Harrelson wins the Ford C. Frick Award
southsider2k5 replied to Thad Bosley's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I am so thrilled this finally happened and that Hawk was alive to breath it in. Love or hate the guy, the one thing that cannot be denied is his impact on the game and his impact on baseball fans everywhere with his catch phrases and enthusiasm for this sport and his team. Congrats Hawk, you earned this! -
Sure, OK. You love taking your personal shots, but get hurt feelings when it doesn't go your way. You want to call me wrong, but when you were wrong you broke every single rule of Soxtalk to destroy the evidence of everything you had ever said, and then tried to pretend it didn't happen. If you want to talk about rule breaking, but pretend that you've done nothing, you aren't being fully honest here. That's OK though, I am used to it. For as much as I have debated people over the years here, no one has quite gone to those lengths to have their cake and eat it too. I can respect the people who are willing to debate and let it stand on their own merits, and not act like half of the story never happened. I am sorry you can't do that.

It is. But I think it will be after the trade deadline.

August 1st is probably the earliest, unless an extension gets done, or something big happens.

FutureSox: Sox to sign brother of Tatis Jr., Elijah
southsider2k5 replied to Rankin's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I wonder if because he is actually eligible today and not July 2, if that changes what they can say? -
Charlotte is 6-1.
