For GOP only
Dems immunized before attending NASCAR events. This is too bizzare to be made up. http://www.washingtontimes.com/apps/pbcs.d.../110120099/1002

Al Gore: Nobel Peace Prize Winner
Interesting sidenote about the other winnner... Al Gore didn't even want him running the IPCC http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/7041747.stm

New Television season
QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Oct 12, 2007 -> 01:55 AM) So I watched ER tonight, and really liked it. I'm just wondering if I can still keep my man card. I've watched ER from the beginning. It was a good episode last night...

Rowand Wants Big Money
With Torri Hunter and Andruw Jones on the market, he won't even come close to what he is looking for. Maybe those numbers are why the Sox are rumored with Hunter/Jones and not Rowand?

The Office
Everyone cheering and walking out after the screensaver hit in exactly the corner was the highlight of the episode for me.

Al Gore: Nobel Peace Prize Winner
Good for Al. The question now becomes, are the rumors about him waiting for this to enter the Presidential race true?

2007-2008 NHL Catch All Thread
QUOTE(kapkomet @ Oct 11, 2007 -> 03:15 PM) but he's not. . . at least not how I read it. He is out of the day to day operations, but not of the team itself. He officially will deal with NHL related stuff. If you ask me, a regime change is taking place

GOP Primaries/Candidates thread
QUOTE(mr_genius @ Oct 10, 2007 -> 05:58 PM) Paul ran as a libertarian before, in 1988 I believe. But I guess he could run as an independent and pull a Ross Perot on the GOP. His following has had rave reviews about their level of commitment, dedication, and hardwork. They are ravenous addicts trying to get this guy elected. He could get 5-10% in a national election if he had a decent amount of national media exposure.

GM on strike
QUOTE(Texsox @ Oct 10, 2007 -> 03:02 PM) Nice With your passion for bettering your community, we'd love to have you here. Eh, you only have one hometown. Besides the commute to work and baseball would be a b****.

Konerko Speculation
QUOTE(rockren @ Oct 10, 2007 -> 02:43 PM) Hi, everyone. This is my first post on this board and I look forward to posting here daily for years to come with all of you. I'd have to say this deal wouldn't make sense at all. Mainly because the re-signings of MB and Dye have shown that we're not about to just cut payroll, which is exactly what a deal like this would be trying to do. I saw Shields pitch 5 or 6 times this year and he's clearly in decline. I'd rather just get some lightning rod arms and throw them in the pen for cheap rather than on overpriced middle reliever that's on his way down. Welcome to Soxtalk

GM on strike
QUOTE(Rex Kicka** @ Oct 10, 2007 -> 02:43 PM) There was no Ford strike, at least not yet. The GM strike actually ended up giving UAW workers some longer term job security anywhere from 5-10 years so I fail to see the long term ass biting here. Chrysler also does not have the cash laying around that GM did to make their problems go away.

Konerko Speculation
QUOTE(RockRaines @ Oct 10, 2007 -> 02:30 PM) is it funny to anyone else that Angels fans want to get rid of Kotchman, in fact keep calling for that deal of Kotchman, Figgins and Santana for Tex, they call him soft, and injury prone. Yet we act like this guy is complete gold. The grass is always greener...

Question for our resident Minor League guy on the board
QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Oct 10, 2007 -> 12:37 PM) Crede and Ozuna are on the 60-day DL though... Are you telling me the Sox won't put Egbert on the 40 man roster? Even with these two needing to be placed, they will move someone else and make room.

A look @ Japanese Players
Great information. I do like how they added if they were free agent or needed to be posted to come here. That is very useful.

Miscellaneous "White Sox" Trade Notes
QUOTE(fathom @ Oct 10, 2007 -> 01:40 PM) It's the second time I've seen Andruw associated with the White Sox this week. I believe it was the Inside Dish on yahoo.com that speculated the Sox would possibly land him. Stop for a second... We are supposed to believe the Kenny Williams is going to go after a Scott Boras client who just hit .222 and is asking for 7 years and $140 million? One who has been yanked from games for being lazy and alouf? Sorry with guys like Rowand, Cameron, and Hunter out there, plus a guy from Japan that might be interested in Chicago, I just don't buy it. To me it sounds like Boras trying get some bidders.

The Sox currently have two forty man roster spots open. Egbert will fill one of them.

Miscellaneous "White Sox" Trade Notes
QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Oct 10, 2007 -> 10:23 AM) FWIW, Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Braves beat writer David O'Brien is betting that either the Dodgers or White Sox will land Andruw Jones. A few other teams he mentions are "rumored" as interested. Scroll down to "Whither Andruew" for the discussion. With the CFs on the market, he would probably be the last one I would bet on the Sox signing.

Many Yankee question marks..
QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Oct 9, 2007 -> 11:51 AM) Posada and Rivera will still be Yankees next year. That team is both too loyal and too smart to let those guys walk. A lot of those guys have never played for anyone else but Joe Torre. Firing Joe could be seen as the ultimate disloyalty and piss some of them off enough to not come back.
