Yes :puke

And the guy isn't even going to jail. What BS. http://apnews.myway.com/article/20040830/D84PIB001.html

I dunno, Pavano just isn't really on my list. I would rather see the Sox give a little less money to Matt Clement vs Carl Pavano. I just get the feeling that Pavano would be a bad fit for the Sox.

I look at Jon Garland and see Kip Wells. Almost all of the same critisisms were laid at Kips feet while he was on the southside. All he needed was that change of scenery to start to realize some of his potential. But the problem is I don't think Jon is going to take that next step while he is in this organization. As GM I would put him up for bid, but I would look for a lot to get him. There are teams that would love to have a guy with Jon's stuff at the middle to back of their rotation. Teams like Boston and New York are going to be looking for pitching in the off season, so the market is out there.

Like I said before, the writing is on the wall... right or wrong, Jon Garland will not be a Chicago White Sox next year.

Yes he can. The deal signed was contingent on the Marlins getting a new stadium deal, which the odds look dismal at best. He can walk away if it doesn't happen. Both sides liked the deal, because it gives the Marlins needed payroll flexibility if they don't get that new revenue source.

That gets me thinking, I wonder when ex-Rockies start become HOF eligible, how much will the perception of playing in Coors hurt their chances?

Robin is probably my all time favorite. A leader by example, he was "Don't tell me what you hit, tell me when you hit 'em" at its truest. He was a gold glove 3B IMO, and I miss him to this day. He gave the southside some great years, and some unforgettable moments. I will never forget his game winning Grand slam off of Goose Gossage against Texas, amongst other huge Ventura occasions. To Robin

Speaking of Ozzie in yesterday's pregame interview it was interesting to hear him talk about the 3 guys he pushed to bring north out of camp... Adkins, Cotts, and Gload. Not too bad really.

Snopes owns.

How was gameplay in 2k4? Did they have a dynasty mode?

The blog I run for the Pick to Click had invitations before anywhere else I even heard of. That's how I got in.

I guess you missed the GET ON BASE part

No, which would have made him a complete waste of money this year. Save it for 2005.

The Bears have 8 coaches doing their jobs for the first time. Plus they essentially have a rookie QB, a twice cast off RB, and a WR core held together with duct tape, that just lost their leader. I get the feeling the Bears won't win 5 games this year, or win a couple of their last games to get another pick around 10th. This team scares me, and not in a good way.

I thought he had a major shoulder or elbow surgery before going to the Cubs, and that's why they got him so cheaply?

Exactly, we already have about 5 or 6 Burnitz-esque hitters in our line up. We need guys who can get on base, move over runners, bunt, run bases, etc.

Sshh I was trying to be nice Come on guys petition is still open!!! Save our Soxtalk!!!!

Congrats to WS!!!

Its not you LDF.

Gload has been a nice surprise this year, but he is a butcher in the OF, he is 28 years old, and no one else has been willing to give him a starting job. Add those all up, and I see a good bench player at best.

Given the choice between Uribe and Valentin, give me Jose. And actually I am on the Omar bandwagon between the 3 of them. The guy bunts, he moves runners over, he works pitchers, he steals bases. He would be a huge asset as a #2 hitter which we haven't had forever.

Satilitte internet is expensive up front. The equiptment is like $600 total.
