LMAO. I like the "buy" rating on Chrystal Meth.

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Jan 5, 2005 -> 10:56 AM) My vote goes to the Prawn With The Wind so far! Nice work there! Will there be a poll at the end, and then maybe some t-shirts printed up? I myself would wear a printed thong to opening day if we had them. We definately need a poll for this. It would be cool if we could figure out a prize too.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Jan 5, 2005 -> 10:32 AM) Jermaine O'Neal, Kobe, and McGrady are reportedly giving $1,000 for every point they score on Thursday night to UNICEF for the tsunami relief. That'd be crazy if JO could drop another 50 on that night. Good deal. I would love to see every player in the NBA pick up on this.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Jan 5, 2005 -> 10:42 AM) I honestly don't think Knight would consider it. He really left Bloomington with a bitter taste in his mouth. yeah but at the sametime there would be no better way to stick it to the guy who fired him, than to get his old job back. I doubt it will happen, but stranger things have happened too...

QUOTE(Rex Hudler @ Jan 5, 2005 -> 09:35 AM) What is everyone's beef with Alford at Iowa? I know he has had some problems with players, but I really don't know any details. He seems to be finally turning things in the right direction, but I still hear negative things. What gives? The big one I always hear is that when Pierre Pierce got accused of rape, Alford pretty much protected him and didn't come down hard on him. The other complaint I have heard is he complained about the Illini's student section. Other than that, he has had some disappointing years while there. It always seems like they have one big player out with injury at least. This year they really seem to have a good start going though. I hope it goes well for them.

QUOTE(Rex Hudler @ Jan 5, 2005 -> 09:21 AM) ss2k, are you an IU fan? Depends on what day you ask me. After broadcasting HS ball for a few years in college, I became fans of whereever the players I knew went. I guess Kentucky would be my favorite, but that happened because I loved watching Travis Ford play. I do follow IU decently closely as a lot of the players I followed have ended up there. Plus I love to see the homestate turn out the hoops teams. I am defineately a BIG Steve Alford fan as he got his coaching start where I went to college (Manchester) and his office was right next to the womens teams office where I helped out a lot (student assistant coach my Sr year, broadcast for them two other years) and he was a really good guy. Very down to earth and religious family man, who I have a lot of respect for. I know he gets grief for the Pierre Pierce stuff, but that's the kind of guy he is. He is really big into second chances. If he ended up at IU I would definately become a big fan.

That's great.

QUOTE(Winnin Ugly @ Jan 5, 2005 -> 09:00 AM) It was mention on KNBR 680 AM which is the flag station of the Giants it was mentioned yesterday that Nen might sign a minor league deal with the Whitesox or the Rockies... Holy crap, can you imagine our pen with a healthy Rob Nen at the back of it? That would allow Nen to close and Shingo to be used at anytime from the 5th-8th innings for key situations and hitters, much the same way Gordon got used while he was here.

So to start the speculation, who do you bring in to succeed Davis. And a really silly question, could it be possible to bring back Knight from TT as he has been pretty quiet down there...

Things are heating up for Mike Davis. This is from the Trib...

To add to this thread. Chet Coppick has asked to be considered for Kotex-boy's old spot on the radio.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Jan 4, 2005 -> 08:32 PM) I think this will basically end the Dodgers offseason. I thought the Dodgers were going to sign Lowe as well?

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Jan 5, 2005 -> 07:32 AM) Uhhh, Tex, this post is about 4 months too late. Maybe that works for Tsunami's as well?

QUOTE(EvilJester99 @ Jan 5, 2005 -> 07:18 AM) ESPN Radio reported this morning Racer Micheal Shumacher has donated 10 million dollars to the relief fund... now if thats not awesome I don't know what is..... Hopefully that puts pressure on the Latrell Spreewells of the world who can't fee their children on $14 million per year. Great for Schumacher

This thread pwns. Keep em comin

Happy Birthday and hurry back!!!

Isn't the NY Post kinda tabloidish? When I hear Levine talks about it, then I will listen.

I get the feeling that the team will be done by the end of this week. Just a hunch.

Caminiti would have never made the HOF even before all of the roid stuff came out.

QUOTE(southsider17 @ Jan 4, 2005 -> 03:50 PM) Nope. All the same size. BTW, your avitar (I think) is not showing up under your name. It is definately your computer then, because all 3 different sizes show up for me, and my avy is showing up just fine.

QUOTE(TheDybber @ Jan 4, 2005 -> 03:49 PM) Is that true even if they are owned under an umbrella, let's say, for instance, let's say the Bulls and White sox are owned by the same group of owners that have incorporated. The new corp. is called SoxBulls, Inc. Would they be able to shift funds between teams then? I think the professional leagues have by-laws against that actually. I think corporately it would be legal though...

QUOTE(southsider17 @ Jan 4, 2005 -> 03:45 PM) Yeah. That's the conclusion I've come to. I'll check these posts when I get home and see if that makes a difference. Did you vary the text size in any of your responses to me? I'm wondering if I can see other's text sizing effects. Nope, but I'll try it now. BigBigger small How's that look?

QUOTE(southsider17 @ Jan 4, 2005 -> 03:38 PM) Already did. There's no variation in text sizing. Huh. That's strange. It is showing up on the site, and the coding is working just fine. It must be something screwy with your computer.
