Just a post to remember some of this great run by the Sox, from Gettysburg32

This was in the Trib today FWIW

Damn the lego reenactment was hilarious.

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Apr 26, 2005 -> 02:15 PM) Politte for Walker and Nomar with the Cubs eating most of their salary. Throw in Mike Sirotka and its a deal...

QUOTE(qwerty @ Apr 26, 2005 -> 02:16 PM) 13 million a year for garcia? Judging by what mediocre pitchers like Clement and Benson got, I think so. He would have been a number one target of either the Mets, Yankees, and/or the Red Sox, which means a bidding war.

That's great. They either just admitted they suck, or that they were lazy on Noc. Quality bunch of guys those Wizards...

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Apr 26, 2005 -> 02:12 PM) I also don't think the Cubs would be willing to give him or Alex Pie up. Probably David Kelton if anyone. I don't know what we really need now. I think KW should wait until at least June to look at a trade. We don't need any OF prospects, as we are loaded with them right now. It would have to be a pitching prospect, an infield prospect, or a catching prospect.

QUOTE(quickman @ Apr 26, 2005 -> 02:05 PM) No Jim, its the other right button.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Apr 26, 2005 -> 01:50 PM) Wow. No s***! I have NEVER heard that about the Sox. That means things are changing. Its Ozzie. We got one of the potentially best free agent pitchers to come here for 3 years at $9 million a year. If Garcia would have hit the free agent market he would have gotten at least around the money that Pedro got, with maybe an extra year. The Yankees and Red Sox would have been creaming themselves for the guy. We also got Orlando Hernandez, Dustin Hermanson and AJ to come here without overpaying for any of them. Heck Hermanson signed here, and within a month was trying to talk AJ into playing for the Sox. We aren't the Detroit Tigers who have to pay a premium to get the attention of a player. Ozzie has a lot of friends out there, and they want to play for him.

QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ Apr 26, 2005 -> 11:25 AM) Now what is he going to spend his time analyzing? Maybe the Sox, since he is a on Sox fan board and all

Just goes to show that you can't rollerskate in a buffalo herd (bonus points for the artist of that song, without Googling)

QUOTE(EvilJester99 @ Apr 26, 2005 -> 11:12 AM) Nahh I won't do anything yet unless he gives me reason to. He knows we are watching him now. I hope he isn't stupid to try anything but one never knows. If this guy is that sick, it might not be whether he is stupid or not, he might not be able to control himself. Definately keep an eye on this dude and your kids. Good luck EJ.

QUOTE(JimH @ Apr 26, 2005 -> 11:04 AM) Outstanding and I thank you. That's the picture. Actually the shirt is for my dad, he gets a kick out of Politte. Not a bad idea on the quickman suggestion though ... hmmm. So the best way is to save the image to my hard drive? And then? Take your cursor over the pic, right click it, then "save picture as" and give it a name.

Am I the only one who votes for people based on how they are playing? Damn, people voting for Frank right now, are the reason that the fans shouldn't get to vote. Vote for someone who deserves to go, not some legacy player.

Wow, I thought IU was a slam dunk? Looking at things, this might be the first guy who really gets screwed if the NBA goes to the minimum age 20 thing. He would be forced to go to college instead of having the option of the NBA.

I know he hasn't been on here for a while, but he was getting shipped over to Iraq... Hopefully everything is still well

QUOTE(Spiff @ Apr 26, 2005 -> 12:26 AM) I'm glad Reggie is retiring, I don't get all this sentimental bulls***. Go home Reggie, you've never won anything and you won't ever win anything. You're a little b**** who whines about everything. Your little BS tactics should never have worked but somehow the idiot refs fell for it. Beat it. I gotta say, I can't really stand Reggie either. He was one of the dirtiest players I have ever seen.
