QUOTE(Steff @ Oct 31, 2005 -> 12:53 PM) MLB doesn't own the rights to the music. Exactly. The White Sox would have to pay royalties for everytime that montage is distributed, to each artist whose song is used in it. From what has been stated already it is not cost effective.

Religion of Peace
QUOTE(EvilMonkey @ Oct 31, 2005 -> 12:07 PM) You really have to search hard to find Muslim groups that will speak out against most of the things that have been done in the name of Allah. And even when they do speak out, they counch their words very carefully, not wanting to risk the wrath of their fellow Muslims. Only because of the slant the press likes to give these stories. It is documented out there that MANY religious leaders in Islam do not support many of the Jihads and of the killing of the innocents that are happening in their names. But of course these people never make it onto the front page of the NY Times, instead the latest Bin Laden video or the latest suicide bombing takes precendence. If you WANT to find info like this you can, you just have to want to look for it. And look no further than the crusades for Popes and Christians killing Muslims simply for being Muslim. You and I are both Christians, but to turn our backs on the history of the killings that have been carried out in the name of Jesus Christ is to open the door to them happening again in the future. We have to respect our history and NEVER allow it to happen again.

October Posts of the Month
one of the funniest and yet wrongest jokes I have seen in a while. QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Oct 31, 2005 -> 12:35 PM) If this has been floating around out there I hadn't run into it until I saw it on a friend's White Sox blog. Brilliant!! The Chicago White Sox have tied Bobby Brown's record by beating Houston four times in one week.

Saw 2
QUOTE(Steff @ Oct 31, 2005 -> 09:55 AM) You need to see 1 to understand 2. For those that have seen it could you please be respectful to those that haven't and want to and not post spoilers just yet? TIA. Or if someone feels the need to post spoilers, post a great big warning so people can scroll past it without reading it.

On a side note, thanks for posting that Tony. It helps out Brooks and his staff if we can eliminate duplicate questions and requests for the PR staff.

The Official Parade Thread
QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Oct 31, 2005 -> 10:52 AM) They estimate that 1.8 mil came downtown for the parade. Just for perspective, how many come down for the fireworks on July 3rd?? Taste of Chicago fireworks usually bring in about a million people, as does the air and water show.

Iran Leader Calls for Israel's Destruction
QUOTE(Rex Kickass @ Oct 30, 2005 -> 02:40 AM) Except they would be destroyed as well. By Israel and the U.S. Even Russia might retaliate not willing to allow a nuclear detonation in its sphere of influence to go unpunished. Size doesn't matter. This is International Relations, not porn. Oh yeah, and Iran backed down on its statements too. People in power through totalitarian regimes will - as a rule - use force to safeguard or expand power. Destroying Israel serves neither goal. There were also stories out there about the Irani leader restating the same comments about destroying Israel.

The Season is Officially Over!
QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Oct 28, 2005 -> 03:42 PM) I remember you saying you'd keep the year of the first World Series as the end part of your name. Are you permanently ss2k5 now? Its either that, or retire the name forever. I can't decide. Maybe I need to do a poll???

Iran Leader Calls for Israel's Destruction
QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Oct 28, 2005 -> 02:09 PM) No matter what happens...I think MAD still applies. Israel probably has something in the range of 100+ nuclear weapons and the capabilities to deliver them to all corners of Iran. If one goes off in Israel, there's no reason to think that Iran won't turn into a smoking hole in the ground. First thing is Israel would have to have enough time to pick up the launch and fire back. Second thing is that dying in defense of Islam is the ultimate sacrifice. People have been committing suicide in Israel to kill Jews for how long? Think of this as the same idea, only on a bigger scale. Half a dozen nukes tops would destroy Israel, and then it won't matter what happens to Iran, the Zionist state would be dead.
