Ah so I see you got my Christmas presant Tex? I hope you enjoyed it. Shipping last minute was a b****!

A day late, but Happy Birthday qwerty!!!

Has anyone else watched the amatuer footage being broadcast of this? The power of mother nature is just aweing. The power and the scale of what I was watching looked like a B rate movie, but then you stop and realize those are real 3 story buildings being buried in water etc... for the families and the relief efforts to put these peoples lives back together who did survive.

Jesus, I got OFF of work at 2:00.

Absolutely. Until I got old enough and they threatened to take back everything if I woke them up before 9.

And to top it off, Timo is the laziest OFer I have seen since Claudell Washington slept in LF. And don't forget Sammy Sosa played here first...

Ummm Joey Cora?

JINX!

Listen Jim you don't want to piss me off over this...

Big plans for Christmas I see.

$250,000 in pee?

I can't believe you actually took the time to figure out all of that One of these days I'll have to do a top 10 for Spamming or something funny. Maybe for SS25K. I'll miss you all while I am in Vegas

Mine gets spotty at times too. I think the sheer volume of posters and posts is slowing it down. Hopefully the upgrade will help that.

Not a big surprise honestly... St Louis needed him BAD. He'd be nice for us, but not a necesity. I'll bet they paid up, and a 3 year contract is proof.

Well being the hoarder that I am, I saved my schedule from last year. It looks like the last autographs on Saturday start at 3:30, but things are still going on until about 5. What about 4pm? It is the end of the day, and it won't interfere with too much stuff. I'd be curious to here if there is serious interest, especially in the

This thread will stay up until then, and there will plenty of info.... Out of curiousity, a goofy idea that could be kinda cool, is having some kind of picnicish meeting somewhere. Maybe on the level above the fest next to where the garage sale is?

Lets see what Duke does against a b**** of an ACC schedule. Then we can talk about Duke.

Jason told a few of that we have had 82 new members just since December 1st. That is insanity at its best. Welcome in

I know this great little place called the manhole... In all seriousness, we all meet at the bar just about every night. If someone has an idea for a gathering for others, I am open to ideas.

My presant leaves Ohare at 7am tommorrow!!!!

2003 payroll was $51 million. 2004 was $63-65 million

I grabbed the wrong set of numbers... What you posted was indeed the 2004, based on the end of 2003. They did have $12.8 million in operating income. Now, guess how much the payroll went up for 2003 to 2004?

I have read the Forbes review of the MLB teams. Total revenue, is total revenue to the team. It includes all of that stuff. http://www.forbes.com/free_forbes/2003/0428/mlb_18.html According to the 2004 charts, which are based on the 2003 season (the most recent available) they had an operating income of a whopping $1.2 million as a team,

I saw the post, duh

Why do people think the White Sox have a ton of money? It has been proven over and over that they pretty much plow the previous gains into the teams the next season. Look at the Forbes numbers. The Sox are not making much money.
