Empty stadium
QUOTE(retro1983hat @ Apr 8, 2005 -> 10:15 AM) US Cellular has a 20 year naming deal with the Sox. I'm sure they didn't fork over $60 million to go to Indianapolis. The Sox also extended their lease as a part of agreement to allow renovations.

I just sat in disbelief
QUOTE(aboz56 @ Apr 8, 2005 -> 10:05 AM) I don't like that as an argument. You can't give up 3 homers like that in one inning with a three run lead. Hell Ozzie should've pulled him after the second one. When the strike zone is the size of a pea, and the hitters are patient, it becomes a lot easier to look like batting practice pitcher.

If the umpires had anykind of a strike zone yesterday, no one would even be talking about Hermanson.

Pictures of JP Deuce in Procession/Funeral
QUOTE(mreye @ Apr 8, 2005 -> 07:57 AM) I don't think it's disrespectful. If people that are there, using video cameras is disrepectful, then am I the same because I popped a tape into the VCR last night and recorded the funeral? BTW, LCR, I like your usage of "an" with "historic." Nobody does that anymore. I taped it also. I really want to see it because I have never seen anything like a Papal funeral in my lifetime. I have a curiousity of the traditions.

Notes and quotes
-Takatsu now has two career blown saves, both were against the Indians. -The major leagues' longest hitting streak—16 games-when Ross Gload struck out in his only plate appearance in relief of Paul Konerko. It was Gload's first at-bat of this season. -With his two first-inning RBIs Thursday, Konerko passed Guillen for 15th place in RBIs in White Sox history. They had been tied at 565. -Contreras, who pitched six strong innings Thursday, is 13-2 with a 2.86 ERA in 19 starts when he pitches at least six innings. And from Ozzie..."I told [Pierzynski] when you go out there [for Contreras], tell him to throw strikes. When he gets back to the dugout, I'll take care of the rest."

Cause Ribbons and Colors
QUOTE(kapkomet @ Apr 8, 2005 -> 09:10 AM) You forgot one. Decapitating snowman and pouring ketchup all over the place and watching Benson Onejyi's kids cry like there's no tomorrow. Followed by: Pictures of one snowman before death in a convocation with the President of the college using it in a slideshow getting interrupted by "hey, I decapitated that f***ing snowman!" Who would have thought kids born in Nigeria would take a snowman so seriously? I wouldn't have had that teeory(sic)

Anyone using chat at all????

How's the water?
Luckily it was an early game, and most screamed themselves out early on. Let's focus on the Twins. The last thing we want to see is these guys get preoccupied with this loss and lose site of the big picture here.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Apr 8, 2005 -> 08:04 AM) I know JPII was the first non-Italian pope in 455 years, so I had to say that any African popes were not from recent memory. Even yours YAS? [/too easy]

Cause Ribbons and Colors
QUOTE(mreye @ Apr 8, 2005 -> 08:01 AM) When Limbaugh had his TV show he would sometimes wear all these different colored ribbons. He even had one made out of a dollar bill that he said was for the economy of. I went to a college that established the first Peace Studies program in the nation, so as you can imagine, Rush was not very cool. So of course we all had to have the dollar ribbons for fun

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Apr 7, 2005 -> 09:58 PM) Now's as good of time as any to release the pairings for Soxtalk's greatest Admin/SuperMod. The winner of the matchup between LCR and Capn12 will face Spiff as the twelve seed. I seeded myself lowest of the admins to prevent favortism and all admins were aherad of global mods, with the original big 4 seeded highest. Got some good matchups, people. A Six seed? Who the heck makes these brackets, Dicky V?

Friggen strept throat!!!
QUOTE(BridgeportHeather @ Apr 7, 2005 -> 11:11 PM) Funny thing, I had Bronchitis about 3 months ago. I haven't had two "bugs" hit me like this in many years. I think that this could be stemmed due to my change in environment from suburban life to having lived in the city now for several months (almost downtown, actually). Kids are germ factories.

Cause Ribbons and Colors
QUOTE(LowerCaseRepublican @ Apr 7, 2005 -> 09:15 PM) Put a ribbon on your car -- its literally the least you can do. That is awesome. I literally hate those things. Very little or no money goes to the cause, and it is just another commerical opportunity for American's to show off where modesty should be the rule. You support American troops... no s***, don't we all?

New Brackets
QUOTE(LowerCaseRepublican @ Apr 7, 2005 -> 09:14 PM) I think the best shot of an American Pope was buried with Cardinal Bernadin. You are most likely right. And with America's standing in the world, it will be a long time if ever, that we see an American pope. Good money would be bet on Italian or Latin American. I really doubt the Catholic church is advanced enough for a black pope, so that eliminates a whole continent.
