QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 26, 2010 -> 10:46 PM) Sox need to fix the schzophrenic nature of the team. Can't hit .150 the first six weeks. Can't have bullpen-s***tiness the second half of the season. Can't have starters be ultra studly for a stretch, then s***. Cut the shizo, Ozzie. Let's settle down. 88 wins is damn good. Sometimes I wonder how the frick we won that many with that team. That sounds great, but I am guessing every single team in baseball does that over a 162 game stretch. No team has perfectly semetrical seasons. For every hot streak, there is going to be a slow streak.

QUOTE (Buehrlesque @ Oct 26, 2010 -> 10:04 PM) If the Brewers go with Cora (long shot), what are the chances Ozzie would consider bringing in Ryno for bench coach? It is in the Trib today that he would consider Ryno.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Oct 27, 2010 -> 12:10 PM) I'd be shocked if they add the $45M in payroll you are suggesting. I could be wrong, we'll see in April. The big problem is that all of that spending has gotten them nothing. I can't see it keeping up with the crash in the economy there.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Oct 27, 2010 -> 09:59 AM) He owns the Tigers, Pistons, and Red Wings? Wow, that's crazy. And he is probably losing assloads of money on two of the three. I'd bet at least $50 million for the last season.

Ha-Ha

Fun, fun, fun, til daddy takes her Tbird away.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 26, 2010 -> 06:12 PM) Castro is fine as long as we don't expect anything like what we got from him last season. QUOTE (joeynach @ Oct 26, 2010 -> 09:42 PM) Does anyone realize how productive Castro was in limited AB's last year. He hit 8 Hr in 128 AB. If he gets a full a year of AB's, say about 460 for a catcher, thats about 30 HR. Wow. This is exactly what I was talking about.

Xe is not the gas we are talking about.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Oct 26, 2010 -> 04:41 PM) So what sort of penalty should we expect to see laid upon the Knicks for this? link Something along the lines of what the Wolves got for the Joe Smith "signing"?

Really explains the gas though.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Oct 26, 2010 -> 04:02 PM) I like all of these moves. It's obvious to bring Thornton back and makes a lot of sense to retain Castro. Very glad to see Torres leave, as he's a talentless hack with no marbles. Castro is fine as long as we don't expect anything like what we got from him last season.

QUOTE (Wanne @ Oct 26, 2010 -> 03:14 PM) pursue a chance in Asia?!? WTF does that mean?!? He got his eye on some hot asian poonanny?!? $$$

Poop

Nah, I want to talk about flatulence more.

Let me think about it.... No.

Just stick to the gas.

Exactly.

Umm, Freddy Mercury is dead.

I got my first baseball at a game in 1984. It was actually down at the old Arlington Stadium, and it was from Ron Kittle and a few other Sox players at the time who were playing pepper out in LF. A couple of months ago while at a Gary Railcats minor league game I got a foul ball, and ended up giving it to my oldest kid. So today I broke out my Ron Kittle ball to show the kids my first baseball. I was amazed at how far out the seams on the ball from the 80's were as compared to the ball from 2010. The new ball almost felt smooth on the seams compared to how far out they were on the old ball. Anyone know if something atmospheric could cause that big of a difference, or are the baseballs just that much more different today?

Strangely the song would have sounded very different.

Queen never sang "I'm every woman", it was actually Whitney Houston

Oh no, if I have learned anything, it is somebody else's fault.
