Welcome to Soxtalk!!! :cheers

I really wish Ozzie wouldn't insult girls like that...

QUOTE(SleepyWhiteSox @ Feb 28, 2005 -> 02:06 AM) He's definitely earning his playing time with his hustle and smart decisions...both things that I wanna see from Eddy and Tyson... Once Ben learns how to play D, Duhon will be a solid back-up for Hinrich and his scary shooting %... Are you watching games or reading box scores? Tyson needs to hustle? You are kidding right?

Happy Birthday

Remember all of the times you bragged about Texas weather? Paybacks are a b****

QUOTE(Leonard Zelig @ Feb 28, 2005 -> 12:41 AM) Wow, that's great of those guys. It seems so rare to see professional athletes going out of their way like that when they don't have to. Says a lot about them, and this site, I think. ps. what are the two endeavors? Soxtalk and its sister site Futuresox.com are the two endeavors. And absolutely 100% heartfelt "thank yous" to all of the guys who have contibuted here. It is a testimony to the two sites that this many of the guys out of the Sox system would be involved here. The contributions of the players is what makes this site THE best Sox site on the internet. And as for me personally, I would like to say an extra thanks to Jim Bullard, Jeff Bajenaru, and Brandon McCarthy. I have had personal dealings with all 3, and they have always been willing to talk to me, and do anything to help the site. You 3 are the best!

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Feb 27, 2005 -> 02:56 PM) Carl showed up early to camp and partied with fans at the bar at Soxfest. What an egomaniac. And he has a great sense of humor. He was 180 degrees the opposite of the guy the media has portrayed him to be. Everett was awesome.

Penn becomes the first team to qualify for the Big Dance with their clinching of the Ivy League title... Selection Sunday is two weeks away and counting...

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Feb 27, 2005 -> 01:49 AM) well word has it that Tyson is really working hard on his offense in practice and he plans to add some more weight to his frame this off-season so maybe he can score some more next year... i personally dont mind his bad offense because of his amazing defense he gives us. That's exactly how I feel. The guy leaves everything on the court. Plus the game of basketball is as much about the points you prevent as the points you score. I'd love to see a number like that, but it would be near impossible to figure out.

QUOTE(Spiff @ Feb 26, 2005 -> 07:13 PM) Not really. Clarett protected Tressel and all the OSU boosters when the police started investigating. Then Tressel turned his back on him so Clarett said f*** it, I'm gonna tell my side of the story. This kind of stuff happened with Tressel back at Youngstown State too. Which is pretty similar to what Canseco did. He protected everyone's little secrets until he couldn't find a job and ran out of money, then he sold everyone out when he felt they were blacklisting him. That's just MO though.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Feb 27, 2005 -> 01:57 AM) At least you can be thankful it wasn't an Aussie Accent. Spot on mate!

QUOTE(Spiff @ Feb 26, 2005 -> 03:29 PM) I don't see where the animosity toward Clarett comes from. Clarett=Canseco-talent

Purdue is leading Minnesota by 12 just into the 2nd half in Gene Keady's final home game. This would really hurt the Gophers Big Dance chances.

QUOTE(sox4lifeinPA @ Feb 26, 2005 -> 02:40 PM) haha, MUCH better idea! Pay PA to stop posting on soxtalk! do I hear 5 bucks? Raises hand

UK beats Alabama 78-71 in Birmingham

Also Jim Boeheim wins his 700th career game as the Orange blow out Providence at Cuse. Congrats to Coach B.

UK has had an incredible 2nd half to erase a 14 point deficit at Alabama in what is basically the early SEC title game. Sparks has gone 7-10 from 3 point range and Kentucky has shot over 70% in the 2nd half.

I'll give you a dollar to go away

QUOTE(T R U @ Feb 26, 2005 -> 02:04 PM) haha i know, Im faster than Clarett also Slowik, Browns performance today at the combine may have just cemented him at the Dolphins pick at #2, if they pass on Smith and take Brown i will be so happy.. I hope Brown goes to either Miami or Chicago, that would be so awesome He has Mr Insignificant written all over him. Idiot. Clarett that is

Jim you know anything about guys being signed to take their places? Anyone worth mentioning?

Any details on the contract, or information on the Bears overall cap situation?

QUOTE(T R U @ Feb 26, 2005 -> 12:43 PM) I have to put it in here not enough people check out the NFL War Room thing... Ronnie Browns fastest time... 4.32 (this was just simply amazing, he just got himself a TON of money) Maurice Clarett...... :headshake 4.82 and 4.77 second run 4.82? Yeah he has changed and is working real hard :rolly

Good luck dude!!!

CNN is showing a press confrence from Kansas, where local officials are talking about the arrest of the serial killer known as BTK (bind them, torture them, kill them). The first murders in the case date back to 1974 and over a 17 year period he committed at least 10 murders, and send tantilizing clues to local news media and still managed to elude capture until he reemerged last March by sending a package to a local TV station.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2004 @ Feb 25, 2005 -> 10:23 PM) HORRIBLE game by Eddy tonight. Gordon and Hinrich were great. Chandler and Davis did all the dirty work. Great recap. Once again, these kind of lack of efforts are why Eddy is still not an elite player. He gave zero effort tonight, and when I don't think he played a second of the last 20 minutes of the game.
