    Welcome to our little Sox corner of America Munkey!!! Don't ask me to make a sig for you, though!! You can tell I have no sig skills-o-rama!!
  2. Well, we are a good 1/3 of the way through the Spring Training schedule I think, and I wanted to make sure I pointed out a few guys that are simply gettin it done in Tucson: #1- Aaron Rowand---- I am so happy that he is showing so far he can handle the pressures of playing CF for a MLB team. 17 ABs, 9 H, 2 R, 2 2B, 1 HR, 8 RBIs, 1 SB Keep it up AaRow, keep it up!!! #2- Billy Koch---- Yes, I'm a bit biased because for most of 2003 I was Koch's only supporter on this board it seemed like. But you can't aruge his numbers so far, with or without a 100 MPH Fastball. 3 IP, 1 H, 0 BB, 3 K's We need you back to 2002 status this year Billy. #3- Jose Valentin---- Well, all I can say is please continue to always hit lefty all year. We all know of your inability as a right hander. 13 ABs, 6 H, 4 R, 1 2B, 1 3B, 2 HR, 4 RBI. We need to have the Jose of 2000 back to make a run at this division. I know its still way early, but I just wanted to throw a few names out there of the guys that have looked pretty solid so far in ST. Please feel free to add some of your own.
  3. Agreed UofI. I don't wanna let the kid make the team just so he can sit and watch MLB games from the bench all year. Let AaRow have his shot, and JReed will get plenty of time to patrol the Southside Outfield when Maggs walks.
  4. Just hire Dave Odom to take Georgia out for ya if they make it, he seems to be able to handle them easily. Kentucky, on the other hand....... And I'm in.

    Sorry cw, you are in the very small minority on that issue. Maybe you need to watch this video to remind you how most of us feel about Apple products.
  6. Lol, I gotta keep reminding myself I'm the only SEC school supporter here. I keep wondering why we are talking about teams like freaking Northwestern, then I remember the area of most of the posters.
  7. Websters definition of "Backing into March Madness" -- see the University of South Carolina Basketball team Goddamnit. I've never seen such a piss-poor display of basketball, on senior day no less, than I saw tonight. You let a Kentucky team that is down this year come into your place, and run your ass up and down the court. I am NOT happy with how this team has degressed this year. Its hard to understand sometimes.

    I'm closing this you 2. I'm not getting involved in whatever beef you seem to have with each other in alot of topics, but I am suggesting that old issues aren't brought back to the forefront to further fuel all this bickering. You are more than welcome to use PMs to vent to each other, but not a good idea to keep rehashing it all.
  9. Oh Happy day Murcie!!!
  10. I honestly don't think Borchard makes this team. Moreso, I think Jeremy Reed can beat him out for the 25th spot if its available at all. It will be nice to see Gload on the bench, cause we will desperately need a left-handed stick late in games. Hot Damn!!! Baseball is back!!
  11. Capn12 replied to 1549's topic in SLaM
    Theres lots that apply to that for me... Undone, The Sweater Song - Weezer Buddy Holly - Weezer The Way - Fastball Alive - PJ Everlong - Foo Fighters Monkey Wrench - Foo Fighters Learn to Fly - Foo Fighters Waterfalls - TLC I'm a Loser - Beck Bittersweet Symphony - The Verve Song #2 - Blur Life is a Highway - Tom Cochrane... This list can go on forever in my mind...
  12. Keeping no eyes on the road Hehe, maybe not the best idea to try that. I knew there was a reason they put a TV in the Visors!!

    Best movie Evar!!!! (yes, spelled wrong for effect) "Come out here trying to look drugged out and out of place, they'll recognize it. Act like you don't give a crap, and you fit right in" something like that "Strange thing, it was someting your wife said to me last night while we were in bed. She said we wear the same size clothing, from the waist up I presume." "Let's give it up for Fred, the Dorf, Dorfman!!!! His wife stood beside him during that venerial disease episode. And she had her own stint at Trembling Hills." "Cash? I'm Impressed!!" "Saw my pimp today. Heres $1000. Keep 10 and go get yourself a nice piece of ass."

    Top 5, IN particular order: Standup Comedians 5- Jerry Seinfeld 4- Robin Williams 3- Jamie Foxx 2- Dave Chapelle 1- George Carlin...no one really is close to Carlin IMO Actor Comedians 5- John Candy (RIP) 4- Dick van Dyke (subtle physical humor) 3- Steve Martin (just watch The Jerk about 50 times) 2- Matthew Perry (This guy kills me) 1- Jim Carrey (Still my favorite, after all the years.)
  15. OK name- 9 The Bones is solid, concise, and notable avatar- 8 again, love for Illinois State is noted. sig- 10 great work, nice shots of such a beautiful specimen!!!
  16. Moved to S,L & P area, for your reading pleasure.
  17. And Saturday afternoon is a perfect example of the heartaches that come along with playing freshmen in a conference like the SEC. The boys had Wednesday night off, and played Saturday at Arkansas. And played like s***. Their only lead was 1-0. This kind of thing will, and has, give Coaches and fans ulcers thinking about what should have been. Now games against Georgia, Tennessee, Florida and Kentucky remain, and I can't see them doing better than 2-2 with that schedule left.

    Salary problems? With Jerry Reinsdorf? With JR at the helm, we have NO salary restraints!!! But anyways, bad news about Corwin. Hope that explains part of his horrible BB:K ratio he had going. Some pitchers return better off after TJ surgery, dunno how, but I'm hoping to see Corwins name in teh Sox organization again soon.

    Hey DBAHO, is The Movies coming out on just PC? I remember reading about it, its been a long time coming. It should be darn interesting to play. As for MVP, I will thoroughly enjoy playing it. Especially because the good ole Greenville Braves are on it. I spent at least 4 nights every week out at Greenville Memorial Stadium from 1992 to 1995.
  20. Agreed YASNY...had to adjust my sig to reflect my true feelings.
  21. Guess that makes me Cliff then. The provider of useless and/or obvious tidbits of information. I don't live with my mom though, hope that doesnt count against me!!
  22. Whoa!!! You said Beauty sig!!! I recognize that right away as "Strange Brew" type talk. One of my favorite movies ever.
  23. Capn12 replied to Steff's topic in SLaM
    "...chi, chi, chi.........ahh, ahh, ahh..." Gotta love that Friday the 13th background music.
  24. I will NOT clam down!!! I don't even eat much seafood!! There are a great number of unknowns right now with the 2004 version of this team, so we are all a bit skeptical right now.
  25. Hmmm...I'd think maybe something along these lines is what I expect, please remember I am an AaRow supporter through and through: .275 BA, 25 2B, 2 3B, 20 HR, 85 R, 75 RBI, 12 SB I think given a full season, AaRow can produce this type line.
