You do have a point there. But me the masochist that I am love Texas summers. I am so anti-winter it isn't even funny. If only they would open a futures or stock exchange on South Padre Island, I would be there to cut the ribbon

Hmm that gives whole new meaning to the words Paper or Plastic, don't it?

When does the new top 25 poll come out? Looks like Florida should move up to the #1 slot in the polls. I think North Carolina should take a big jump also from their #10 ranking now.

It appears the Em-one might be a little scared of the can of worms that just got openned? Now they are saying the lyrics weren't meant to be released...

The Hawks 14 game winless streak is their longest since 1959-1960. They are on pace for a 57 point season, which would be their worst since getting 55 pts in 1957-1958 (without the benefit of OTL) The are also on pace to score 156 goals which would be their lowest total since 1956-1957. (By contrast the Hawks scored 156 goals in 48 games in the strike shortened 1994-1995 season). Also Steve Sullivan leads the team with 15 points, which is tied for the lowest total to lead a team in the NHL. and finally, combined Anderson and Leighton are 1-14-3 this year.

And it is done with *gasp* a playoff. On a side note, I really liked GVSU's campus. I ran an indoor track meet up there in college, good times...

Portis has 3 straight games over 160 yards on the ground

Just a footnote. The results do kind of skew because on dates where a winning player wasn't picked, someone else got the "win". So on a day where no one picked a Tony G who won, the win went to someone else. And plus some players got picked everyday making it much more likely that they would get a "win" on a day they didn't win.

If we move Pauly. I would love to see Raffy in a Sox uni. That would be a sweet LH bat in the middle of the line up.

Not a bad idea. It really is a joke that the #1 team in the country is left out of the title game. But as I think the BCS is a blatant attempt to keep the rich schools rich, I think it is hilarious, and let it collapse.

Everett wasn't a big surprise. They could have been on the hook for 7 or 8 million dollars, which there is no way that is even close to feasable.

Bor-ass wanted 4 years at 40 million as a starting point for negotiations. That for a guy that played his first relatively injury free year in a long time. No. Way.

He had been on a one year deal with us. He is an unrestricted free agent.

No loss there. The guy was never going to pitch for us anyway.

IU is a great school. Also one of the few places in IN that you will get an honest to goodness multicultural experience. If I had gone to a "big" school IU is where I was going to go.

:finger Ok new rule. Texsox IS NOT allowed to post in any threads that mention "snow" or "cold"

wow so now the Spos are minus Vlad and Vazquez...Comiskey might be the one stadium that is more full than MTL this year...

Damn for $1.2 that would have been a great chance to take. Teach him to play first and he could back up Crede. Plus a good LH bat.

So Juan Uribe= D'Angelo Jimenez.... great

The problem will always be getting enough people into that dome to keep players playing there.

After signing Holdman and Urlacher to longer term deals, there was no way to spend that kind of cash, and still fill other holes with even OK football players. With the salary cap, you really have to pick and choose your spots.

Great charisma? I can see that being a needed football atribute

The lake actually helped us out this time. We probably got about 6 inches, but it melted right as it fell mostly.

I really don't understand not offering Sullivan Arib. Aren't they planning on spending about that much money in the pen anyway? Why not get one of the most durable and dependable guys around.

lol. I'd put together something much better than Jefferson for Randolph. If you do want to trade him, let me know before you do.
