Didn't football start a month ago? Have you got the same press agent as the Bears?

Now THAT is a sport I want to be a spectator at

It is 8:40 am right now.

Duh, I just said the other day that the Yankees were going to be all over LaTroy Hawkins. Their pen is just horrible outside of Mariano. When the Yankees were winning every year it was the pen that was responisble, and ever since they started wasting money on bench players instead of the pen, that is when the quit winning titles.

OK the league is created. For those who are interested here is the info. Any discussion on the rules or specifics, go ahead and post it.

What a surprise, this ended up in the Sun Times and not the Trib. I have to get this book and spread the word.

I'd be interesting in Cito, more than Ozzie. I would much rather see Ozzie get somemore seasoning before being a manager.

Have you seen the Bears this year Have you seen sum41 ever? Jeez, is Chip Carrey the lead singer or something?

Yes Jason and were those people who said Jason WIlliams is overrated, because hes white essentially fired? Or even questioned? No. I happen to ALSO agree that Williams is overrated because he is white. Does that make me racist? This is unbelievable. I'm with ya 100%. Their is a double standard. How is it gonna be fixed...I have no idea, but it isn't gonna start by having guys that are willing to speak their mind have to quit. People can speak their minds all they damn well want..its when they are doing stuff out of pure spite/hate that its wrong. I don't think Rush was wishing the guy ill will or was trying to say...black qb's just can't win or they are too stupid to be good. I think he was trying to say what a lot of people think...and I always said Williams was hyped because he was white and I think the Mcnabb is hyped. Not gonna say its cause he's black, but I personally think its because he is this running qb with a great arm (Not an accurate one) and right now people drool over that style, yet I haven't seen one of those guys win the superbowl lately (Big Time Scrambler...all I can think of is Elway and I think he knew how to throw). Agreed 100 percent, on everything. I dont really feel sorry for Rush, as im sure in a way he deserves it........its the whole double standard that really irks me. Once again it goes back to the overraction of main stream society who thinks they have to make up for centuries of distrimination by showing how far they would go for equality. So now anytime someone asks a tough question on a minority (whether it be race, religion, creed, orientation, etc) someone freaks out, and so they are considered disriminatory, everyone else has to jump in on the chorus. The problem is that is prevents a frank discussion on anything because the majority are afraid to ask probing questions for fear of being labeled as discriminatory. And it has the opposite affect on society because then stereotypes and misconceptions are never corrected, because the can't be questioned. It is a stupid vicious circle.

The thing is when Jerry got here he was a breath of fresh air. He wanted his guys running the bases, bunting and moving runners over. Then he abandoned all of those ideas for the 3 run HR.

More like Hardly Working... Then again when I look at my paycheck that is about all they pay me for

Actually the Braves remind me of the Sox way too much. Too much dependance on the long ball, scary fielding and erratic pen...

I'll get a Soxtalk league set up tommorrow at work.

Maybe we should go back to betting against the Bears

Can we shamelessly campaign? VOTE FOR MY KIND OF BOARD! If we can't campaign, disregard the previous post

CUBS LOSE!!!! I love you Mark DeRosa!

Which means he isn't going to be interested in being the GM of a team that is a readheaded step child. He is going to want to go somewhere he can win. Heck if the Yankees don't win it all, I could see him landing there.

Do we have enough people to do a Soxtalk league? If so, I will create one.

Have you seen the Bears this year

I'll play if needed.

Cameron is not going to resign in Seattle. He is going to be one of those guys that takes a huge paycut. I wouldn't be surprised if he goes from $8 mil to $2 mil or less. Yeah playin in Safeco has really decreased his batting numbers ova there. Still he's a guy who can hit bout .250 and .260 with 30 homers (in a hitters park) and a plus arm in da outfield plus great speed. Some team will overpay $4 to $5 mil for him, maybe Pittsburgh or even Cleveland. After seeing what players got paid last year. $2 mil tops. Archive this post.

If the deal was Ichiro at $6 million and Maggs at $14 million, and that meant that we could resign most of our FA's, I'd do it in a heartbeat.
