QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ Mar 2, 2005 -> 11:11 PM) All FSN has going for it right now is summer sanders. And the band played on...

QUOTE(knightni @ Mar 3, 2005 -> 02:18 AM) That lineup is one of the reasons why the word "suck" was created. :headshake I'm thinking more like "swallow" But in reality, we are looking at what to do with these guys more than anyone else. We need to know who the last man on the roster is going to be, and if the rest of these guys can fill rolls if needed, or if maybe these guys have any trade value.

22 page thread for the first spring training game... Do you think people here are ready for baseball to start?

I found it interesting that both of you had to point out that it wasn't the US that was responsible for most of this, when that wasn't the crux of the article or in anything I said.

Sounds like our disappointment for your disappointment to me...

I'm in

QUOTE(mreye @ Mar 2, 2005 -> 03:18 PM) O Yeah. Remind me to push you in front of a train sometime

QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ Mar 2, 2005 -> 03:17 PM) where's anthrax? Being the sane one... read above.

Server burb... sorry about that.

QUOTE(mreye @ Mar 2, 2005 -> 02:35 PM) You'd enjoy it too much...

Politte will be on the team though. He has a million dollar contract, and Adkins doesn't.

QUOTE(mreye @ Mar 2, 2005 -> 02:20 PM) Who the hell cares about what you're concerned about? You'll be concerned when I ban your ass

QUOTE(hi8is @ Mar 2, 2005 -> 02:22 PM) f*** it, i caughted up the 15 bucks... i get the whole year so oh well its only 15 bucks and its worth it That's what I did too. It'll pay for itself soon enough.

QUOTE(winninguglyin83 @ Mar 2, 2005 -> 02:21 PM) Farmio seems impressed with Adkins. In better shape. Throwing strikes. He could make the club. Farmio sez there could be some guys saying goodbye (in trades, I reckon). Wonder if Adkins could replace Politte? Thoughts? I think he could. He doesn't have the raw stuff, but he has better control. Last year was a good learning year for him, and I think he has the make up to be a solid middle reliever at the major league level.

QUOTE(TheBigHurt35 @ Mar 2, 2005 -> 02:13 PM) My bad. I agree that there's no need to point out the obvious. No harm no foul as far as I am concerned

QUOTE(TheBigHurt35 @ Mar 2, 2005 -> 01:59 PM) Here, here I'll also add, "f*** KipWellsFan," who doesn't pay taxes to the US government or vote for its officials, yet spends hours bashing the Bush administration on a web site based in America. Of course, he has the right to do it, but it makes him look like a classless ass clown. Easy on the insults please. You can disagree with the guy all you want, but we here on the site don't want to see the name calling. Thanks

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Mar 2, 2005 -> 02:02 PM) Do you EVER have anything positive to say? I didn't think so. He's positive Kenny Williams sucks

QUOTE(joemg311 @ Mar 2, 2005 -> 01:55 PM) Allright thanks everyone I guess "sox sign 17" isnt really the case then, its more like "the sox negotiate small raises to 17 already bound by contract" But Sox sign 17 just sounds so much more Sexy.

I thought about sending in this letter to my local news paper, but I think it has too many big words, and they would miss all of my misspellings and typos.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Mar 2, 2005 -> 01:44 PM) not quite... You don't get to be called Sir unless you were a born Englishman. Sure ruin my thread title

QUOTE(joemg311 @ Mar 2, 2005 -> 01:31 PM) Ok thanks guys it is becoming much more clear. But what is to stop the sox from giving everyone of those players the league minimum? Is it just good will and buisness and about keeping people happy to set up for the future the reason they give people more money? or are the raises in contract? Technically there is nothing to stop them from paying the minimum, but it is really stupid in practice. All the teams negotiate out small raises with most of the players. If they are good teams will pay them more.

QUOTE(Steff @ Mar 2, 2005 -> 01:10 PM) I'm looking at the invoice right now and it says $1053 for parking..? Maybe the tenure has something to do with it..? I think it is Kenny's payback from Soxfest2004
