I always had faith in willie, but there comes a time when you have to give up on someone. I'm sure BA will be excellent in a few years as well, for some other team. Rowand is a good hitter. Not great, but good. I misread that the first time. His numbers aren't "fluke". When you do it twice, in a short career, its not a fluke.

QUOTE(Brian @ Jul 20, 2007 -> 08:06 PM) Because we have a game thread for this and with the site problems, I doubt the site needs a thread as useless as this one. We all know it was a huge f*ck up. I see. I think some people who didn't see the game, and don't want to read the entire game thread(though tonight its not very long) would want to discuss this, especially those who are critical of ozzie's every move, as they require some kind of sick validation.

QUOTE(Brian @ Jul 20, 2007 -> 08:01 PM) In before the lock. Why would they lock this?

QUOTE(BearSox @ Jul 11, 2007 -> 01:42 AM) right now he isn't. Most forget Joe wasn't this stud defensive thirdbasemen when he came up either. Fields already has good range and has better arm then Crede, he just needs to really work on his glovework and the transition from glove to ball. Nobody here cares, from what I gather. They just care that Crede is the better 3rd baseman right now, even though right now, he is out for the season and is a question mark in the future. Back surgery is tricky as hell and often doesn't completely solve back problems.

QUOTE(StrangeSox @ Jul 12, 2007 -> 09:09 PM) If this isn't the worst BP in the last ten years, I feel very, very sorry for whatever fans had to watch THAT team. Bobby comes in and takes care of business immediately. Yeah I was getting at that. I'd like to see a comparison so I know exactly how s***ty this pen is.

We are last in the league in relief right?

Booner

If the server is switched off tonight, then I'll be making love to a fat girl.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Jul 12, 2007 -> 08:00 PM) Andrew Sisco gave up 8 runs on 9 hits in 0.1 IP during his start tonite. That's pretty amazing.

That would look like an autographed chair in my basement sportsbar.

Is Kerry Wood ok?

I don't think crede was better than josh at the same points in their respective careers, defensively or offensively.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jul 10, 2007 -> 12:08 AM) Kalapse is referring to the fact that SoxTalk is free while there is a fee at the Cubs primary message board, North Side Baseball. Oh, I wouldn't advocate anything like that. Just a donation option. It would still be free. I am a capitalist pig.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jul 9, 2007 -> 11:51 PM) Why don't you just go join NSBB you f***ing Commie! I don't even know what that means is one reason. Someone else was complaining to me about the costs and blah blah on behalf of the owners of this site, I thought it could be something to consider.

So what is joe next year? Arbitration eligible? Signed? Option? Damn, where is that guy with his sig? Lmao, it was right above my post. Time for bed.

Haha, ok. I'd like to make a suggestion to the owners of the site. Have some kind of premium membership where long time/generous users can donate through paypal at a very reasonable cost to help support the site. They would receive some benefit . . . not sure what though

I thought more people would care about the archive threads. I don't as I just discovered the internet in 2006. Personally, I am all for a better faster board.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jul 9, 2007 -> 09:40 AM) Well if you want to buck up for a quad core server with about 8 gig of memory I am sure that Jas and everyone would be very appreciative. You realize that the guys who run this site have other jobs and I didn't know that any of their jobs included IT. Its a pretty damn well run ship considering that its on people's own dimes and all and the amount of activity that hits this thing. You completely missed my point. I already knew all that crap. They should accept donations. I would donate.

What the ghertr? You quoted a guy in the movie thread and showed Fukudome?

I am really surprised, honestly. I wouldn't put this site anywhere near the top. The posters here are great but the server is slow and there is no search function. I find it amazing that it would be in the top half for those reasons alone. I really do love this site, though, don't get me wrong. I feel like an ass even saying that

I for one, look forward to every game, just to see some of our young talent. , especially in josh fields. Future outfielder I hope.

It wasn't even like he got beat up out there either. A lucky fisted double and a high chopper single cost him. Sometimes luck isn't on your side.

Good move going to buckvich.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 2, 2007 -> 09:12 PM) KW seems concerned that if they give the NTC to Buehrle, then other players will want it when either trying to re-sign them or in the free agent market. I understand where he's coming from. I don't care what happens though, it would still be a travesty if people stop supporting this team just because one player isn't brought back. We were on cloud nine when PK re-signed, and from the looks of it, he's not going to lead us to the playoffs during his new contract. You are pessimistic. Who knows what will happen this offseason and next.
