  1. QUOTE(silver and black @ Mar 11, 2005 -> 08:11 AM) Today on the show, they will review the Sox and their offseason moves...I'm sure steriods will come up. They will have a guest from the Sox on. Who it is, I don't know. Hopefully not Mariotti. Cold Pizza is on right now, ESPN2. They usually do the reviews in their first hour, so you people wouldn't need to watch the whole show...(I know it's god awful) Thanks
  2. I can't help but feeling - "Haven't we heard this all before with all the othe "top" prospects?" Sorry. I have a wait and see attitude. We heard the same about Crede.
  3. They are changing the seats to green over the next 2 seasons. I also doubt the Fundamentals area will be done, but they surprised me last season.

    QUOTE(Steff @ Mar 10, 2005 -> 04:05 PM) I think they would have found him dead eventually. FWIU they were going case by case looking for people she ruled against. Definitely would have taken some time though. I think it would have taken forever considering she never "ruled" in his case, just dismissed it. They got very lucky!
  5. QUOTE(Molto @ Mar 10, 2005 -> 04:30 PM) I wear my seatbelt a lot more now. Why not always?
  6. QUOTE(tonyho7476 @ Mar 10, 2005 -> 12:48 PM) To make it worse, the girl he's marrying is a b****. Then you can take her to the game!
  7. QUOTE(LowerCaseRepublican @ Mar 10, 2005 -> 02:31 PM) Since they have a policy already that says they won't get meat from places that mistreat animals, That's meat?
  8. QUOTE(Queen Prawn @ Mar 10, 2005 -> 03:08 PM) They are human and they can try to keep that out of mind as much as possible, but it will color how they see other things in the case. As they say on Law and Order, you can't unring a bell. I hear ya. Under the law they can't, but in one particular juror's mind, that's a different story.
  9. I was heading to a BUlls game once and an abandoned car was in one of the lanes with the guy behind it looking in the trunk. I would guess that he got nailed that night because it was dark and traffic was flying. I barely missed him. It's a good idea to always have an "out." Know if you're able to go left or right at all times. You never know when you might need it. I learned that driving a truck. Your brakes aren't always the best choice.
  10. QUOTE(Queen Prawn @ Mar 10, 2005 -> 01:54 PM) While I agree with you, one thing that is going through the jury's mind is Jackson's avoidance of court today with the accuser on the stand. They're not allowed to take that into consideration.
  11. QUOTE(KipWellsFan @ Mar 9, 2005 -> 09:16 PM) Just try explaining to someone in Canada that you spend time on a message board talking about the Chicago White Sox. Just tell them you bash the US on a regular basis and they'll understand. Just kidding, man.

  14. QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Mar 9, 2005 -> 01:43 PM) how often was a day of the Martha Trial the front story on the news? The minute it went to the jury there were umpteen reporters all over the place talking about. Yet when the largest case of fraud in the history of corporate American goes to the jury, nothing. Its a joke. Yeah, but can Bernie Ebbers make a doily into a life vest?
  15. QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Mar 9, 2005 -> 10:16 AM) Someone I know found a USED band aid in a cake they bought from Jewel. Still rolled up into a fingertip shape with the dry blood puddle in it. :puke They went to the store and complained, the store said 'hey, we don't make em, you have to call these people'. They contacted the place that makes the cakes, they apologized. They contacted an attorney who told them it's almost impossible to win that kind of lawsuit. You'd have to prove illness and that it was caused directly by ingesting that cake. A lawyer turned down a lawsuit?
  16. QUOTE(EvilJester99 @ Mar 9, 2005 -> 10:28 AM) Looks like a bad episode of Monk.... No such thing
  17. QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Mar 8, 2005 -> 09:12 PM) Damn....Freddy looks pissed as hell! It looks like there's a storm brewin' behind him too.
  18. QUOTE(Chi Town Sox @ Mar 9, 2005 -> 01:08 AM) and i thought we had enough pitchers.... maybe they came to the conclusion that we have 2 many right fielders, check out the losing pitcher http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/boxscore?gid=250308127 Typo?
  19. QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Mar 8, 2005 -> 10:02 PM) But not like you would expect... Martha gets out of prison and has helicopters watching her feed her horses. WCOM's top exec who is accused of $11 billion worth of fraud has his jury in day two of diliberations and it is on page 5 of the business section. That is just wrong. I had 1000 shares of Worlcom go to s*** on me! :fyou
  20. QUOTE(Goldmember @ Mar 8, 2005 -> 04:59 PM) Oh s***, Goldmember! Your sig!
  21. I think I told this before, but I'll tell it again. Back when I was about 10 years old. The only time I reall ate cereal was during the school year, not during summer since my Mom would usually make breakfast. well, first day of school I grab the Raisin Bran and pour me a bowl and cover it with milk. I sit down and scoop out a spoon full when I hear some snap, crackl, popping. "WTF? This isn't Rice Krispies!" It was full of maggotts! Luckily I never got a bite. Needless to say, we threw away all the cereal we had in the cabinet and I didn't eat ANYTHING that day.
  22. I've seen people bring up McDonald's and WalMart. In my area (And it's not affluent, mind you) McD's and WM start at about $6.50 and $8 respectively. That's what they advertise. I think when job loss because of minimum wage increases is discussed, they/we mean small businesses. Mom and Pops. Just my $0.02
  23. QUOTE(LowerCaseRepublican @ Mar 4, 2005 -> 09:20 PM) Exactly. Some drunk f*** picked a fight with a guy in front of CO's. I was on the way to get a coffee & say hi to a friend that works at the Espresso Royale on the corner. I had to duck a punch walking by because these two drunk frat bastards didn't have the sobriety to f***ing hit one another. I wish that their parents' HMO plan had an option for abortion I am so sick of this goddamn day that I could shoot blood out of my eyes. As my friend Dann said today: But today is my least favorite day of the year. From the time I wake up to the time I go to sleep completely sober, I have a massive chip on my shoulder. A plague of green-clad, suburb-dwelling mutant locusts descends on Champaign-Urbana once every year. Their sole mission in life: Spend all nineteen hours that some campus bars remain open on this day getting completely drunk. To what do I owe this plague? They call it Unofficial. Unofficial St. Patrick's Day has become something of a tradition on this campus, on par with having no front seven on the football team or claiming residency in a city one's parents live sixty miles away from. Apparently, St. Patrick's day always fell either during spring break or in the midst of spring semester midterms. Brilliant enablers and problem drinkers, these Hellenicized parasites are. If they were going to be unable to make it out to St. Patrick's Day, they were going to damn well bring the day to them. It began with C.O. Daniel's, the bar whose claim to fame is that you have less of a chance of becoming infected with an airborne sexual disease there than at neighboring establishment Kam's. The beer apparently flows and goes down green and invariably makes a return visit in a similar hue. Over time, St. Patrick's Day has been transformed from a traditional Catholic feast day into a secular holiday celebrating Irish heritage and culture. Dublin, Ireland, has an annual cultural festival that attracts thousands of people from all over the country and Europe. American cities with large Irish populations, such as New York City, Boston and Chicago have parades. Chicago dyes the Chicago River green (they do so fine a job it stays that way year-round). But this international celebration of Irish culture has been expanded beyond this secular celebration. Granted, the wearing of the green has been accompanied by the drinking of the ale, but the sense of community fostered by this celebration has been demeaned by the perpetrators of this cultural travesty called Unofficial into obnoxiously oafish drunkenness with no socially or culturally redeeming value. f***in A! Great post! I particularly like the part about not having a front 7.
