The longest book I read was freshman year of HS I read "Battlefield Earth" that was over 1000 pages. I also have read every Tom Clancy book ever made.

The 15 years isn't for the one offense. It is a culmination of all of the prior law breakings and neglegence of consequences.

Actually I have noticed when Sandy went on the DL and Miguel started catching every day that his numbers dropped. Maybe he still needs to split time 50-50 while learning from Sandy. This in no way changes my view that Miguel is going to be a top 5 catcher in the AL.

I agree 100%. Can't people be happy that their kids who won't get off of the internet and Playstations are reading something? Of course not. This woman wrote books for her kids to read. It is narrowminded to think that this is some of of intro to evil for teens and preteens. I can only imagine what these idiots would say if Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit were were written today. But once again people are trying to tell others how to live their lives...

It is too bad, now that he finally was hitting and playing some D, he is out. I guess that is why they picked up this Rivera kid.

The only problem with Helton is he has an expensive very long term contract. If Colorado ever has more serious money problems, he could be expendable.

Beane ends up being KW's father.

So, lets hear the road trip stories!

I gotta imagine that if the Cubs were willing to give up some of their top pitching prospects that they would already have Lowell.

Loz signed at Comiskey last Sunday too. He seems like a pretty nice guy IMO.

Most of that is the abberation of his one horrible start in the dome. If this guy is going to be our #1 starter or even #2 he needs to learn to win in the Dome, it is as easy as that.

Someone said his computer puked.

I wouldn't do it if I were the Cubs. Stud pitching beats Stud hitting. I do think thats as fair as it would get though. I don't think there could be any straight up trade that would be closer. I happened to be thinking yesterday of what the Cubs would think of with this package. Jose Valentin and Bartolo Colon to the Cubs (Or Mark Buehrle) and the Sox get Carlos Zambrono and Juan Cruz or that Guzman kid in return. I was also thinking that since the Cubs have fallen out of favor with Bobby Hill that he could be had for Jose Valentin and a reliever. Although this would be a very tough sell. I wouldn't want Bobby Hill and Scott Borass on the southside. We already had the disaster of drafting that no talent ass clown. No thank you. Well, I want to find a way to get Carlos Zambrono. I'd love having him on our pitching staff. He's a younger, cheaper Bartolo Colon in a sense. He has an amazing arm and is a workhorse. Plus throw in Cruz and you get two dynamite arms. I think if the Sox gave the Cubs a hitter or two and Colon they could lure some damn good players. This might put me on and Island by myself but all things considered (current contract situations etc..) but if the Cubs called and offered Carlos Zambrano for Bartolo Colon, I would do it in a heart beat. And if they wanted to add in Juan Cruz for Jose Valentin I would do it twice as quick.

This is what MB had to say to the Trib after the series Ugh.. geezus. Can't he just be quiet? LOL, he must have been hanging out with Frank again...

My wife is 200 pages into that book already as of bed time last night.

This is the lastest on JWill. I wonder if this changes who the Bulls will draft on Thursday?

Yeah he held out for the whole year and went back into the draft. The "negotiations" were BS Borass asked for a ton of money and we wouldn't give it to him. End of story.

Dont even remind me of that call on Crede's (Should have been) HR! Everyone that was in the chatroom that game remembers how pissed I was! And does anyone have any idea what our record is since that happened? We were 12-8 going into that game. Since then we have played .418 ball going 23-32! I remember saying a game like that could be a turning point. Well there you go.

The other rumor I just saw on ESPN was that the Pirates were talking about a Giles for Weaver deal.

Maybe without Lou Pinella as MGR. But it would be a quick series. I would almost rather face the Yankees. Almost rather? I would in a heartbeat. Ritual suicide or a quick death, I guess it is personal preferance. I think we ususally play better against the Yankees, but either way we are going home quickly.
