So far it is looking like we are seeing May Showers too!

I think it is interesting the JR is down there talking to JM. I wonder what that really means. I know JR is much more involved in the day to day management of the Sox, so it could be something normal, or it could be a sign. Does anyone else know how common this event it?

I wonder if the league office is getting tapes of these calls. Some of this stuff has just blantantly rediculous. The call on Saturday ended up costing us 4 runs, not that it mattered in the scheme of the game, but still. Is there any team that has these kind of plays blow up in their faces the way that we do?

Well looks like I am going to have to revive the original intent of this thread. This weekend was the most pathetic display that I have seen since the west coast swing last year. I don't know if this team doesn't respect Manuel or what, but it is obvious they either don't think his job is on the line, or they don't care that it is. I know Seattle is a good team, but we just mailed it in this weekend. I am extremely disappointed right now, and am fearing us getting swept out in Oakland and Seattle.

And the sad thing is there are not many pitchers who could really take advantage of the high strike anyway in today's game.

He has been offered to do a news show in Abu Dhabi if he wants it. Seriously? Even after he has totally been discredited as a source of truth? lol.

That's funny I just went back and read that whole chatwrap of Joe Morgan's, and the guy who asked this question is from my hometown! You go MC!

Josh Paul did have to clear waivers. I don't think Aaron had to try to clear waivers, because he still had options left.

Kelly Wunsch's season-long hitless streak ended Thursday on a infield single by Eric Byrnes. But his scoreless streak remained intact after Tom Gordon threw 22/3 scoreless innings. "I don't like to talk about it," Wunsch said of the streak, which doesn't include 11 2/3 scoreless innings during spring training. "I won't look at stats until after the year. I didn't know how many innings I had thrown until today. I try to remain blissfully ignorant."

Some articles that might prove some points The rate of infection is quickly dropping in homosexual males down by about 50% in a 5 year span. http://www.aegis.com/news/re/1998/RE980607.html Infection rates among women in Africa are much higher than males. Very clearly implying because of heterosexual reasons such as sex assults, and males not allowing condoms http://www.aegis.com/news/ips/2000/IP000207.html As a percentage of US population men who have sex with men have a higher percentage of AIDS infection. But the rates of infection are highest amongst intravenus drug users by far. The interesting number is that the rates of infection of heterosexuals and homosexuals are almost identical. So the perception that it is a "gay" disease is pretty much becoming a thing of the past. Espesially when you look at the trends in the rates, with the rate amongst homosexuals falling 50% from 93-98, and the some of the quickest increases in rates of infections being among minority heterosexual females. http://www.nida.nih.gov/Infofax/DrugAbuse.html

Listerine prides themselves on saying that using it will eliminate 99.9% of germs. What they don't tell you is that the .1% that it's ineffective on is jizz. :puke Sometimes it really sucks to be a scientist!!! Imagine getting the "Listerine: Effective On Jizz Or Not?" project... "I got WHAT project?????" "I won't do it!" :fyou "I SAID, I WON'T DO IT!!!!!" Follow quickly by the inevitable "how much does it pay?"

You really think he is going to come around? His swing still looks awful when you compare it to the swing he had in his glory days. There is a ton of up and down motion with his head and shoulders. Plus his hips are flying open way too quickly and forcefully. When he was hitting the ball well his motion was much more under control and less jerky through the zone. It almost seems as if he is swinging hard to compensate for the holes in his swing.

I hearby temporarily suspend this thread, until further notice... Which knowing our team will be tonight when we come out flat again!

Maybe we need a "sex topic" board, to branch off of the off topic board?

here ya go yas hon.. you know i would do anything for you........ those girls need a little meat on their bones...i like a little cushion for da pushin!!!!! If they were a jeapardy question it would go....I will take SCANKS for $100......Alex "What is the country music group that just committed a PR nightmare?"

Good for Cal. I hope his elbow sticks together... Now we know what the duct tape was for Mr President!

You know what they haven't been handing them out. I have Rob Gallas's email, I am going to drop him a quick line to say something to the proper people. If anyone else feels the same way as I do go to White Sox.com and find some people to email and tell them to have the ushers practially shoving ballots in people's hands!

I think that is one AB that will stick in my mind for a LONG time. That was a superstar piece of hitting against a guy who had not given up a run all year, and is going to be a great pitcher for a long time in this league.

He has been beating teams that have beaten him up in the past, so far this year. I am hoping that this is a trend that lasts.

I do like the idea of trying Harris as the leadoff hitter and moving D'Angelo down to the two spot. That could hopefully get DA a little more protection and fastballs with Frank hitting behind him.

Reading the paper today, Maggs said that Aaron hasn't been 100%, as many of us have guessed by his preformances. What I am curious of is who will play CF at Charlotte now. Do they keep Borchard in CF even though Aaron is a better defensive CF than Joe, because they want Joe to play CF in the majors, or do they put Aaron in CF and possibly slow down the Borchard to Chicago train?

BRING ME A SHRUBBERY!

Or Maggs the other night against Johan Santana, which ever came first

Heck after watching the A's serious I was kinda missing Singleton!
