  1. Well, from what was in this weeks "Entertainment Weekly", the change in actresses due to the death of Gloria Foster will be part of the movie. She is punished by the Merovingian for aiding Neo, and he terminates her 'shell'. They did what they had to do in that situation.
  2. I'm still thinking if ya wanna get Soriano AND Johnson, its gonna take Maggs+Rauch/Honel, and a mid to low range prospect. The Yanks may be wanting to make some big moves, but they won't make outright non-sensical moves like Maggs for Johnson+Soriano
  3. And he wouldnt do anything but help in Credes fielding ability. Robin was as smooth as they come in the field in the 90's for the Sox.
  4. Just for you, The Cheat, I'm changing my avatar!! HIGGINS!!!!!
  5. As long as we got a "Deep Hometown Discount" then yeah, I wouldnt mind having Robins bat on the bench.
  6. What position would we put Ventura at? I love ole Robin, but we don't really have room for him at this point.
  7. Good points, YASNY. I wouldnt mind getting Johnson, but that REQUIRES us to be able to move Konerko. Maybe Maggs+Konerko+Mid-level prosp for Johnson+Soriano++ I dunno, its gonna take moving PK to have Nick Johnson, will we find a taker?
  8. 61382, I dunno. An outfield of CLee, Rowand, and Reed scares the bejesus outta me. Theres relatively no power(cept CLee), no real outstanding defensive outfielder either. And that bench would make me sick if we had to pinch hit, cuz we would have ZERO power for late innings. Gload IMO will not be here next year, the move to the 40 man was just to protect the organization against the Rule 5. Idon't wanna see Guillen signed at that price, I'll take....GULP...JosE6 at that price before Guillen. The Rotation looks pretty solid....dunno much about Batista. I know that I have seen him pitch lights out before. Unless we use Wright as the clsoer in that bullpen, Marte's arm will fall off enxt year as the only lefty with versatility(READ-can pitch to more than 2 hitters, unlike Wunsch).
  9. Soriano in the #2 hole would be great IMO. Of course, that still leaves the leadoff spot open...I can't solve that particular enigma
  10. All I can do is :puke at the thought of Cora being the 3rd base coach.

    I for one don't want Flash in a Sox uni next year. If he is, that means that KW overpaid for a surgically repaired arm teetering on the brink of falling apart. Gordon wants way too much for his services, and if Koch is here next year, and Marte is here, no reason to spend that money on Gordon
  12. I've been a long time supporter of AaRow. The kid has never gotten his chance to be the everyday CFer when he was healthy. After returning from AAA this year, he did a great job when given an opportunity to play. IMO, and what I hope, is that the real competition will be who KW signs to take Maggs place in RF.
  13. Yep, IB72, we're gonna have to ask you to bump that up to at least 4 posts per day, buddy. 2 just isn't gettin it done.
  14. Whether or not the fans like Maggs and want to trade him, the simple fact remains: you cant have 14 mill wrapped up in 1 player of a 60 mill, 25 player roster. Its not feasible to have that financial situation.
  15. Capn12 replied to The Beast's topic in Pale Hose Talk
    Dear Lord.....Joey Cora?!? The coldest Sox player towards the fans that I ever met? Yuck....I'd rather not see Cora anywhere near the Southside.
  16. Thank you Cali....was thinking the same thing, but couldnt remember what show it ripped. Can't believe I forgot it was Family Guy.
  17. Jesus, AaRow....K-Dub isn't gonna be real happy with ya if you leaked that info. And according to some, you are already treading on thin ice.....
  18. There is a story on the Tribune website concerning the manager search, seems tides may have changed.
  19. Capn12 replied to sox4lifeinPA's topic in SLaM
    The best part though...."if people continue to download music for free....the musical artists will be forced to live in only a semi-lap of luxury. You kids don't want that" Fantastic potshot at the RIAA and their lunacy. Trey Parker and Matt Stone continue to find ways to use their animated characters to poke fun at real life idiosyncrasies.
  20. But IMO the Dr. Murcie's Lounge of Love should definately retain its name, even though we are losing Murcie for now. Hopefully he'll be back soon enough, and the Love Lounge will be alive and kicking.

    Wednesday here, DBAH0...First showing is at 9:00 AM!!!! Thats crazy, and you know what? I'll be there.

    Damn, thanks BE GOOD. I appreciate the kind words. Too bad I had to pay Jas a $12.95/month service fee to let me Mod!!! Sssshh...don't let people know the trick...Bribery really works There are PLENTY of ways of which I can bribe you!!! Nah...Carlos doesn't interest me Well, if you are lucky Jas, you'll get to ride in the Saturn f***ing Ion!!! I have been fortunate enough to do so, and feel blessed for it.
  23. I think Brees has what it takes to be a solid NFL QB, but I'm not sure if he is mentally ready to face the rigors of 250 lb linebackers coming full speed at him yet. They really, REALLY need an established WR that isn't a head case(-see David Boston). He really has no weapons at his disposal. Honestly, do the names Tim Dwight, Eric Parker, and Reche Caldwell strike fear in any NFL cornerbacks head? Its truly amazing that Tomlinson can do what he does with all opposing defenses keyed on the run right now.
  24. You got it, YASNY, thanks for the vote of confidence on my thoughts King George will be ready to overspend, and no reason not to be on the good side of his impending high-priced player swap
  25. And another Jess Alba:
