Sweet. I didn't know you could change the way the pic saves...Thanks Yatz you're a life saver.

The guy I would love to see us add for just a year, would be Greg Maddux. I think Jon could mold into the same kind of pitcher that Maddux is, and he would stand to learn tons from him.

Damn right I am an ass, its the attitude that makes the man

Thanks for the info. Hopefully they will get them on ESPN sometime soon.

You are right on that Vlad's contract is the key to what Maggs can get. We really have seen the non pitching market drop off, except for Tejada. I really think the 4 year $48 mil offer is about right.

"Tom's Diner" anyone?

Millwood is looking for Magglio type money... IE too expensive for us. Ponson is sounding like a virtual lock for Baltimore. Sounds like the Sox are going to have to scavenge the non tenders or make some kind of a trade.

Just goes to show you that the cats were smarter than the dog. At least the cats were trying to survive

Damned skippy

Well that isn't until AFTER I take my trench coat off (whiny damned kids)

are we not allowed to download .bmp files? I have a pic and I can't get it to work????

Damn all they ever ask me is if I would like fries with that

You do have something here. I do think it is great that the all mighty Scott Borass thought he could work his magic and manipulate the system again, and failed miserably, wreaking all kinds of havoc all over MLB.

The difference is the all of the principles agreed on the new deal. If all parties agreed who is the union to step in? If someone DIDN'T like it, then by all means, yes the union should step it.

Actually IMO almost as detremental is the fact that the league also has an anti-trust exemption. On the whole ARod trade, I was really hoping that Selig would have taken the union before an arbitration judge to try to weaken them. Baseball needs to be put back on level ground, but as long as the union is holding up the game for their own selfish gains, the casual fan will continue their exodus to other sports, or even away from the sesspool that is prosports in the 21st century

The 8th highest price ever knowingly paid for a baseball. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=1689926 I wonder if it was a Sox fan or Marlins fan that bought it.

Not even close! Pedro-Schilling Mussina-Vazquez Wood-Prior Pettitte-Oswalt/Miller Mulder-Zito/Hudson I would rather have any of those duos at the top of my rotation, vs Loz and MB.

Beastly is subtle like Bush foriegn policy is subtle.

Have a safe trip, the weather hasn't sounded to cooperative.

Damn Gash. I am really sad to hear that. I personally have been so excited about the quality of the board lately, and the incredible influx of talented posters we have experienced, plus emerging from the terrible troll period. I hope you don't stay away at all, but if you have to do it, good luck, and I know I will miss your postings. Hurry back man!!!!!

Yup But we could use a better mascot, PA whines too much

We are getting the band back together! It is great to see so many of my favorite old posters over here (except PA that is), I think we have me, PA, Beverly, BridgeportJoe, 1422, BigRed, and I am sure that I am forgetting others, and sorry if I have. But rock on!

Admin of the year Can I change my vote?

I beat you by a couple of days :finger But Just in Case WELCOME INTO SOXTALK BIGRED!!!
