QUOTE(Texsox @ May 7, 2006 -> 08:54 AM) Just looking over the 2006 salaries, and this is in a humorous vein, and realizing . . . Show up the the park, don't bother bringing a glove, limber up a bit, take four or five trips to the plate, every other day hit one over the wall and trot, not run, around the bases, biggest decision, do I take a shower after the game or not? Financial results for Mr. Thome? 14 mil #1 on the team. Work once a week or so. Play 7 or 8 innings. Don't buy a bat. Have management hire another 6 or 7 guys to finish most projects you start. Financial results? 7 to 12 million and 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7th positions on the White Sox salary list. So 6 of the top 7 salary positions are one way players, 5 of the seven only play once a week or so. Now on the other hand, play everyday, lead off, steal bases, cover the field, and anything else they ask of you, Mr. Podsednick, work hard, and you can earn $2 million, good for 15th position on the team. I'm not criticizing, just having some fun. I think Thome, in terms of MLB salaries, earned his contract due to the numbers he put up in his Cleveland days. But salaries in sports have never been fair. Ask Kevin Brown, Jose Offerman, and Darren Dreifort to name a few on how they were able to rob teams of money in return for sucking bad.

ESPN? Showing the Sox respect? Doesn't happen much, so I wouldn't hold my breath.

QUOTE(Jimbo's Drinker @ Mar 31, 2006 -> 11:54 AM) i hate this show so much. The woman host drives me nuts. Oh man, when she "interviews" someone I can't stand it. She asks the stupidest, softball questions that go nowhere.

And people wonder why we have adults who can write or read only at a 4th grade level...

Yeah I agree we should support Frank as long as its not in a situation that can cause the Sox to lose. No reason to root against him otherwise after all he's done for this franchise.

I haven't played 2006 online, but 2005 was full of cheesers. People had block kick/punt exploits that worked every time, or blitzes that could get to the QB within 2-3 seconds, and numerous other little things that took all the fun out of it. I think EA should be banning people like that.

QUOTE(Drew @ Jan 27, 2006 -> 05:28 AM) God these people are idiots. The Yankee fans who put their team at the top because of their offense blindly sure have a short memory for how the White Sox won 110 games in six and a half months. (and should a Yankee fan be reading this, it was pitching and defense, dumbass.) The Red Sox high rankings I think are flat-out hilarious. Who is their infield? Has that Crisp trade happened yet or will we have another four weeks of media posturing before he puts on a jersey? I can't wait for the old Yankee rotation to fall apart again, but this time no lucky streaks by Aaron Small or Shawn Chacon to save them.

QUOTE(TheHammer @ Jan 26, 2006 -> 03:45 PM) Its not so much that I want to kill him, I just don't want him to be alive...anymore. I wouldn't take anything Skip says with any credibility. Look at the awful show he's on ESPN. The show actually kind of makes him somewhat smart due to the fact he's up against Woody Paige, but any smart sports fan can see that Bayless is a complete moron.
