QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jul 9, 2005 -> 05:54 PM) Hughes got the award because of his steals, period. He's not a good defender at all, in fact him making first team all defense was like Jeter winning a gold glove last year. A lot of these awards mean nothing, absolutely nothing. Hughes was on the 1st D-Team because of the # of steals he gets...thats it. Bowen and guys like him are real defenders. Steals are overrate. Grant it, Hughes can play the passing lanes well bt he gives too much to the ballhandler allowing the handler to go baseline, thus, causing a doubeteam by him and a big man, leaving another the opposing PF or C open in the paint OR vica versa when a doubl team of 2 guards come on the help Defense leaving another shooter open. Watch games 1 and 2 of the 1st round vs the Bulls. Kirk, Ben, Noc, Jannero, and the rest of the guards got penetration and kicked it out.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jul 9, 2005 -> 05:48 PM) It's not like they're hurting for arms in their pen. It's always good to have too many pitchers.

Clement officially in to replace Halladay:

Turnbow has turned into a successful closer in Milwaukee and Jenks has done well since leaving Anaheim. I dunno, it's probably just a coincidence but both can throw close to 100 and you dont just give up arms like that.

That is a big part of what the Sox have done this year so far. On most days, this team is capable of getting him over and getting him in. I believe Hawk said the other day that Carl and Uribe are 1-2 in Sac Flies. Frank always gets a bunch. Iguchi is the king of getting people over. Hell, even Crede has had some sac flies. Only 2 of that I can think have done poorly in thias category are AJ and PK. Uribe - 8 SF Carl - 6 SF Crede - 4 SF Iguchi - 4 SF Pods - 3 SF Rowand - 2 SF Thomas - 2 SF PK - 1 SF AJ - 1 SF Thats a total of 31. That is 31 manufactured runs. Not counting the SB's, WP's, sac bunts, etc. Little things kids, little things.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jul 9, 2005 -> 05:32 PM) The way it should be. I wish Contreras would do the same. Hell yeah. He shaks off like 12 calls, calls time, shakes off another 3, only to throw a forkball in the dirt past AJ. :fyou Count

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ Jul 9, 2005 -> 05:16 PM) Mine would have to be when you go to a fast food restaurant and your drink ends up being a cup full of ice with a little soda poured on top. Curious to see what the rest of you find annoying. I hate that Nuke! I have a few. Number 1 by far is unknowledgable people who think they know what the f*** they are talking about. 2 is complainers. 3 is when someone comes into my room without knocking. 4 is when they don't close the door on the way out.

Sorry but I was overwhelmed by PS1 throwback fever. I did love playing Sonic for Sega Genesis and all Mario games on Super Nintedo.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Jul 9, 2005 -> 04:40 PM) Yeah, until the Hawks get Jagr... :rolly Please -- know something about hockey before you post in a hockey thread. This is probably the worst of the anti-hockey posts I've seen on here in a while. Dude, I was joking. Sorry, I should have put it in green since it wasn't obviouis enough for you. :headshake

I wanna know the game that you just get the sudden urge to play. I'm not gonna go back as far as Atari and Nintendo and Sega but only Nintendo 64 and Playstation. To me, for some strange reason, I love going back and playing NHL Faceoff 2001 and Twisted Metal 4 for Playstation. It is nice to just go back once in a while and re-live what you once thaought were the realest graphics ever. So much fun...how about you!?!?

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jul 9, 2005 -> 04:34 PM) With Houston on a roll and back into the Wild Card race...there isn't a chance in Hell they're trading Clemens. They saw this story last year, and they think they can make a run this year now that their offense is working better. Exactly. Look what they did last year. They ended uo being buyers, getting Beltran, and going on a huge as run to make the playoffs.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jul 9, 2005 -> 04:32 PM) I just can't figure out why that was a reply to me... I was thinking the same lol. Very random.

Trent YAWN-ey. 'Nuff said. NHL blows until they start back again and the Blackhawks get Jagr, Igiinla, and Hasek. EDIT: Green for the slow people. :headshake

QUOTE(ChWRoCk2 @ Jul 9, 2005 -> 04:21 PM) are you kidding me, hes not that good and picture him in a hitters park, yeah he will do terrific here Day = Sinkerballer = Grounders......dur. See: Jon Garland. Now, I'm not saying he is gonna come in and be as good as Jon but they are similar pitchers.

QUOTE(WaterGirl @ Jul 9, 2005 -> 04:05 PM) Look what I've got... Welcome back Linda S. Well, it is a tad creative. I give her a 5.5/10. Goodbye!

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Jul 9, 2005 -> 03:43 PM) You know how the Flubs had Mia Hamm day, why don't the Sox have Lisa Dergan day. BEST.PROMO.EVAR!

To those of us who have been here long enought to remember, I would liek to give a nice little happy birthday to the man, the legend......cwsox. He is missed. For those who don't know, don't ask . Probably the only tear-jerking post in SoxTalk history. Happy Birthday cwsox!
