QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Nov 29, 2012 -> 10:58 PM) I thought we signed Floyd to solidfy agood rotation? Now they want alower cost guy who can win maybe 4 or 5 games and cost less? Nonsensical If they can get a 3B/C out of trading Floyd then it makes sense. There are guys out there that will come cheaper than Floyd who will win you more than 4 or 5 games.

QUOTE (farmteam @ Nov 29, 2012 -> 06:12 PM) I haven't looked at his twitter, but are you referring to the "GOT EEEM" thing? That's from Kevin Millar on Intentional Talk. Negative...I love IT Here's what I'm talkin about.... http://instagram.com/p/SbnOfrDVF2/ ....I believe thats him and hey look a Bulls cap! (may not be him but he promotes the daylights out of it)

QUOTE (greg775 @ Nov 29, 2012 -> 04:06 PM) We have plenty of bad relievers. I'd be all for a total reshuffling of the bullpen. I wish we'd trade some of the current parts basically for anybody else. I like Reed. The rest of the guys are all a dime a dozen or worse IMO. Nobody is reliable besides Reed. By reliable I mean by old White Sox standards. Guys who can get people out. C'mon man...Jones, Crain, Veal, and yes Matt Thornton aren't "bad relievers"....Omogrosso also didn't look "bad" Septimo was a 3 run HR away from putting up some decent numbers as well. Reed had the worst numbers of them all. I certainly wouldn't mind bringing in Adams or someone else to close.

Checked out his twitter and he seems to be affiliated with some "Gimme eem" saying/shirt/?? so in the spirit of that... #coop'llfixeem!

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Nov 29, 2012 -> 03:50 PM) I What if the White Sox traded Thornton and Crain and signed Adams? Is that counterproductive? Depends on how much money Adams wants. I bet the White Sox are a long shot with some of the other teams mentioned. It's not counterproductive if they can get something in return for those guys.

Don't know why the links didnt work.... The Forte one was about him giving laptops to all the players on a local football team. The other article talked about how Brandon Marshall said a lot of players take viagra before games to help in performance. (I better not see any cheesy jokes about this because its 2012 guys!) Yes, in my league there is an openly all gay team, i wasn't being crude or anything. They even have a movie that was/is on netflix, Go Dragons!

Intriguing player if he can find it again. Thats a comment I found. and Here's John Sickels http://seedlingstostars.com/2011/08/24/har...revor-reckling/ Whole article's a decent read...well at least when you cant sleep...

Yahoo's first 2 news things are bears related. http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/highschool-p...-180906317.html Atta boy Forte, good to see. and http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-shutdown...49686--nfl.html Viagra eh? Might have to try that come rugby season...I'm sure the all homosexual team would love that.

Are those Seahawk CBs gonna be suspended for the game??

What the hell happened to Casey Mcgehee?? I hear he may be non-tendered. He had monster seasons in 09 and 10 and then fell of big time. Manto'll fix em?

I still fancy my previous idea, if possible, of trading Rios straight up, or in a roundabout way to acquire a 3B and signing Josh. I think he's gotta have SOME kinda trade value that can help us get a 3B. Even if they have to include Q/Santiago and another top prospect in the trade I'd do it in a heartbeat if it means we get a quality 3B.

I like the way those 2 writers think

QUOTE (greg775 @ Nov 26, 2012 -> 06:47 PM) Do you realy want to be a trucker, though? That might be the toughest job in humanity. Unless I decide to bite the bullet and crawl even further in debt to go to college or come up with a large sum of money to open a restaurant then sure truck driving is up there on my list of "Career jobs". There's good money in it and since I'll be on the road a lot I'll be able to save a lot of that money. Plus the farthest I've ever traveled is the tip of Wisconsin (The Brat Stop) so it'd be nice "travel" a bit. Oh and congrats Chw! I've always wanted a job that would pay me to relocate.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Nov 27, 2012 -> 03:38 PM) I say No. I say Walker and Manto are the same guy, folks. They are capable hitting coaches who provide the tools but it's the player who swings the bat. Says the guy who gives Ozzie all the credit in the world for the WS title. But I agree.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Nov 27, 2012 -> 02:41 PM) Update on Sox players and prospects so far in the winter leagues, on FS. Enjoy. Great to see Hector dominating so far...Really hope he's in the rotation next year. If for whatever reason he's not, I hope he's starting in AAA to stretch him out for the future. I think he's got the ceiling of a 2-3 starter in the rotation.

The runner is considered down when either a: His forward progress stops or b: any part of his body other than his foot or hand touches the ground AND he is touched by a player of an opposing team. Bryants hand touched down out of bounds before any other part of his body, thus he was out of bounds...Simple as that.

A new video card, I've been forced to rock a computer I've had since 01....Has a grand total of 18GB of memory (2GB free) and it can't even play youtube videos. Also want my wii back...traded it for a treadmill and I've missed it.

What an odd last hour... I shaved my head and then 5 minutes later my best friend called me and said he had cancer.

Hey Joe, or any other insider, is there anything new worth noting in the insider article "White Sox need a 3B." http://insider.espn.go.com/mlb/features/ru..._/date/20121124

http://sports.yahoo.com/news/nfl--jay-cutl...-020935212.html I wouldn't go that far. I'd expect this article from bleacher report, not yahoo.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Nov 24, 2012 -> 11:18 PM) Seems to me he becomes a favorite of all managers. He started for the Yankees for quite a spell, didn't he? Then he was our starter. I don't mind the guy, I just wish we'd get some new bodies out on the field. Deweezy to me is a symbol of the fact we ain't gonna win the division. Oh c'mon greg, he's the 4th outfielder! And he actually had a higher OPS than both the Tigers 4th and 5th OFer. Wise-.721 Quintin Berry-.684 Brennan Boesch-.659 The new bodies you want are about a year away in guys like Thompson and Mitchell.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Nov 24, 2012 -> 03:43 AM) 219, whats upppppp. lol lol the whole Gavit class of 06 is filled with rappers, I think I missed my calling. Graduated with these 2 guys too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O64LsEcsKd8&feature=plcp Da Solva aka Antonio Mcneil aka my Subway hookup, is pretty darn good....at least in my homer/non rap fan opinion.

I haven't followed this thread, but I'm sure we gotta have a some rap fans here. I myself am not that big into rap but a friend I grew up with has turned himself into what I believe is a pretty good artist. Now I'm curious if I'm just being a homer (Was actually in one of his videos) or if my buddy has some real talent. His best musics on his myspace, "Transform" is the song to really check out.. http://us.myspace.com/liptakmusic And here's the video I'm in, quite the thugish group of people eh? (I'm the fat white guy with black glasses.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aEEB2RlK1fw...;feature=relmfu I think its his worse song but hey :lookatme

QUOTE (ROC Sox Fan @ Nov 23, 2012 -> 05:48 PM) Nobody wants him back RIGHT NOW because of his contract. I'm sure Buerhle would be welcomed back with open arms in 3 years if he's still producing and can be had for reasonable $. This. He just doesn't fit on this team. It's nothing against him Sox already have 4 LHP for the rotation. Plus $$ is an issue. Unless we can trade Danks for some cheap talent to offset $$ and a spot in the rotation then it's not gonna happen.

The homepage is messing up for me, it keeps reloading itself, I have to hit the X for it to stay on the home page. Whats the problem?? It doesn't do this on any other page.
