Anyobdy else get an outage?

Only thing I don't like about it is that his face in the bg is too bright IMO. Other than that, awesome.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Apr 18, 2006 -> 06:36 PM) The Mets are legit We will see. I'm not sold as of yet. But missed an entire week of baseball so I might sound like a dumbass right now. In which case, just virtual-slap me.

Mets start off great in 10 games and they jump to 5-1 odds to win it all. The Mets are the team equivalent of Chris Shelton.

1.) White Sox 2.) Bears 3.) Brooks Prep HS Baseball 4.) Bulls 5.) Illini Basketball 6.) Sacramento Kings

QUOTE(Pauly8509CWS @ Apr 18, 2006 -> 02:49 PM) If that's the sport I loved, I would rather be playin games and practicing. Family comes first to me. And trust me, I love baseball more than just about anything but I could not pass up the opportunity to visit my godfather who I havent seen since I was like 9, and also to experience the wild outdoors of Alaska. What's done is done and I do not regret going to Alaska one bit.

Well, with grades coming out Thursday, we've been getting print outs and I got an A in Advanced Algebra/Trig. Thing about it is that my % is 100.60.

I just realized how wierd Dwyane Wade's name is spelled.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Apr 18, 2006 -> 12:32 AM) With a turnout of 80 or so between 3, there'd be no use trying to get it. With 90% of those being WSI, I would at least consider organizing something. Get the idea out for an all-soxtalk outing and see how good the feedback is.

Can't we just do a SoxTalk one? It seems as though anyone who wants to go from SoxTalk is forced to be among the mass WSI posters. I'm sure there would be a better turnout.

QUOTE(SoxAce @ Apr 18, 2006 -> 12:19 AM) Off Topic: Yea Slav it is man. I'm really surprised Eminem didn't write a song about Proof yet. Maybe the pain is too much for him it is really a lost to the industry of rap/hip hop. No he wasn't Pac or B.I.G or anything but he was still a good rapper and most importantly, a good human being, who didn't even reach his prime. R.I.P. I believe he has a website too in that article in my sig. I was discussing this to my friends the other day how everything has changed from, lets say, 12-15 years ago growing up. People were getting killed in the early 90's for their gym shoes (Jordans/Barkleys etc). Now its basically gang related or over a woman/man or something. Can't imagine what the next 10 years will bring as of right now I'm hearing the KKK comming back to form up again around that time. The gym shoe issue is getting bad again too. When Jordans come out, I make sure to stay away from FootAction, Champs, FinishLine, and Foot Locker. Last year, I believe a student at Julian got killed for a new pair of those 13's. It's getting unbelievable.

Is Liotta really THAT good or is our farm system just kinda weak?

QUOTE(SoxAce @ Apr 17, 2006 -> 11:58 PM) Garland now has a good shot at getting his quality starts back in order. Hopefully he can get that era back to... well.. better.. Dude, I just read the part about Proof in your sig. I had no clue. That is really messed up.

Keep up the good work Felix. I'm too lazy to get the wall sized photo's.

Yeah, just because it was in Japan, it is AAAA. Please, it doesn't make it easy to hit pitchers. Like I said, he can definitely hit .300 in the MLB. Any hitter in the MLB can. You need to have everything click. Look at Ichiro and Hideki Matsui. In his first year in the MLB, he hit .278. And that is not knowing the language, his teammates, and any pitchers. He is bound to improve every year.

QUOTE(chitownsportsfan @ Apr 17, 2006 -> 10:30 PM) Uh, I think that 13 games in--it's a little to early to say that Gooch is now a .348 hitter SOLELY because Pods isn't getting on base. I'll go on record as saying that this is a silly post and that Iguchi will finish the season batting under .300--no matter what the leadoff hitter does in front of him. Gooch is a good player, just not a .300 hitter--nothing in his career stats suggests anything to the contrary. And heck if Gooch hits .300 this year, I'll gladly eat some crow in September. However, it still won't have anything to do with "not giving himself up" for the leadoff hitter. 2003 Fukuoka Daiei Hawks .340 27 109 515 175 81 42 2004 Fukuoka Daiei Hawks .333 24 89 510 170 47 18 And it will weigh very heavily on how Pod's plays.

Wow! Did he get a web jem for that?

Uum.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Apr 17, 2006 -> 10:03 PM) Hmmm, a week in Alaska or a week of running and games? But seriously, I considered staying until I figured that the coach missing a pitcher for a week would be excellent payback for him nailing me in the foot on purpose and putting me out for almost 2 weeks.

QUOTE(farmteam @ Apr 17, 2006 -> 09:48 PM) You actually went on spring break when your team had games and/or practices? Hmmm, a week in Alaska or a week of running and games?

HELL MOTHERf***ING YES b****ES! I must admit, I shoul eat my own ass because of much Count has proved me wrong.

Is the stadium sold out?

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Apr 17, 2006 -> 07:48 PM) Or you could avoid posting meaningless s*** like you did above. Yes, sir. Never again, sir.

Contreras simply has it going tonight.

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Apr 17, 2006 -> 07:54 PM) I just got in, and couldn't find it on the channel's named in the beginning of the thread, but I did find it on 668 on Direct TV. Just for those still looking. POS says Channel Not Purchased.
