Wow....Killa, I hate to say this...it could be a first....I...AGREE with you!!! No reason to put the money towards that sack o' garbage in the NBA, when he can let the kids get experience in Chicago now, without the felon. Spend that money on the area that needs it, 333 W. 35th St.

Yeh, I would like to see Sully back o nthe Southside, but not at his current $3 mil option price. Too much for our club to spend on any setup guy not named Marte. BTW, Jas, why back to Red? The Green wasn't fitting? Green is where its at!!!

No need to get testy, PA, just all of us voicing our dofferent opinions. You have your belief that Oasis provided some important purpose in the music world, and I think that even the music of The Greg Kihns Band was more important than anything that Oasis did. Thats the beauty of the message board, that we all do have opinions. NO reason to call Everyone out in one stereotypical yhelp, disclaiming that everyone here likes Creed and Metallica :puke

You can't expect JR and his boys to just change the way they operate after over 20 years of the same ole s*** every year. Therefore, I am proposing possible trades and signings that will keep this regime happy in terms of the payroll, and keep us competitive.

I'm only happy if they decide that its Maggs that they must trade to clear the money. I'm not so sure that there is anything wrong with K-Dub being in charge. Soriano, the kid can only improve. Maggs, OTOH, is gonna break our payroll with his salary. Soriano is younger, cheaper, and fills a position we need.

Damn, Killa, I apologize. I'm so used to refuting all your posts that it came naturally for me to blame you again on that one I am sorry. Yeah, hehe, guess that is what K-Dub means, I just now noticed it.

We can hope so, IB72. I would love to give K-Dub my opinion on it. Thats a trade that you can make and know that it was with the best intentions for the club. You are filling more than 1 need by doing so.

Agreed, Yahtzee...why trade the guy when he is finally coming into his own? He is starting to become a complete player, minus the occasional fielding gaffes. If anyone, Maggs goes to the Yanks for Soriano, we get about $12 mill off the books, and get a needed second baseman also.

I am right there with ya on that thought, Yahtzee. I think that Jose time has served its duration. I'd love to see us make a run for Matsui, and trade Maggs for Soriano...thats a damn fine infield IMO.

Agreed, Mario Kart was loads of fun. Another personal favorite of mine was F-Zero on Super Nintendo. We used to sit around and play that game for hours.

PA, that may be the biggest understatement I've seen in a while. Oasis' influence on the grand scheme of the musical scene is minute at best IMO.

Good call Cali, FNM were way ahead of their time when it comes to Rap-Core music. As for the Gallager brothers in Oasis, , those guys....wow, gonna be bigger than the Beatles, but yet you can't stop bickering with each other. good luck with that, Assclowns.

I for one am voting 'neigh' when it comes down to paying our .237 hitting Rock Glove another $5 million for his efforts.

Maybe, Killa, but the guy is starting to be Frank Thomas Part II. Going and whining to the Press everytime things arent so great. I can think of other ways for this organization to spend $5 million.

Obviously, IMO The Beatles were the biggest musical influence...and I agree that what The Who brought to music was unmistakable, if thats a word. I'm gonna add a couple here that are influential to me, of not the world: OutKast---Yeah, I know, doesnt seem right, but what those 2 do lyrically, and the mix of jazz, rock, metal, etc. is amazing if you just sit back and listen, Fiona Apple--- To me, she is the first real younger generation female who can just sit on a Piano and play music from the heart. She was the first IMO to do so in quite a while. Foo Fighters--- IMO, what Dave Grohl has done Post-Nirvana has far outweighed what he did with them. His ability to cover each instrument with his group, his vocals and lyrics, and the fact that everything they do gets better and better. OK, so not the most groundbreaking artists, but those that influence my musical background the most right now.

If Soriano is brought in, I dont want another failed second baseman-to-Center Field experiment. Put the kid at second, let him play the position everyday, and quit trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. Its not like we haven't seen plenty of errors out of Ray-Ray and Blockhead Jiminez at the position.

Good Lord, KW....if the Yanks are offering one of the most exciting 2Bmen in the league, who is still cheap AND young, how the hell do you not take that deal?!? I guess it makes too much sense for K-Dub, and he is confused. Its $14 mill off the books, management, thats all you need to know with this regime.

I'll take K-Dub's word on this one. I believe him, and can only hope that this will further convince KW not to bring Manos back to the Southside.

WHOA!!! What the hell?? I dunno what happened there. Just did my normal quoting procedure.

No chance in hell that we can give credit to a guy that can't even sign in correctly!!!

Yep, how true Jas....Case in Point, Albert Belle...

Wait, I thought JosE6 was Mr. Clutch for our team? God, I get so tired of hearing that everytime he goes 1 for 4 with a HR.

No offense to Jason, but I think I'd :puke if I had to see a calendar of dudes in their draws!!! Scary thought

Huh? I wasn't saying that you said we should get Manny, I was just posting the fact that for all the positives about his production, between Maggs and he, thats 57% of our projected payroll.... :puke
