shipps

The old lady in Kingpin when she puts her nasty leg and thigh up on the couch talking about oral. Absolutely disgusting.

I need a refresher on what prospects Kenny has traded away in the past that have come back to bite him. I know I seen Carter was making a pretty big debut for Oakland the other day. I believe he was a past KW prospect traded away IIRC. Who do you think is going to be the guys that we are really going to hold against KW for trading away. Discuss.

I have a kitten named Boback the Conqueror. She is a Polish orphan who has an evil plot mapped out for world domination.

Last time I was fishing was in Moline,Il fishing with some stink bait. I still cant get that smell out of my nostrils.

Best steak burrito...and I have had plenty throughout Chicagoland is The Mexico Steakhouse in Bridgeport. You wouldnt think this neighborhood would have the best one but it is. http://chicago.metromix.com/restaurants/st.../139574/content

QUOTE (Real @ Aug 8, 2010 -> 02:18 PM) I'm looking at what he's done lately and he's owned our offense. I even gave stats that back up my claim, whereas you're just posting your opinions. Lately we have had a s***load of problems with righthanded power pitchers who can throw sliders. Guthrie owning us lately isn't a shocker, given that his two primary pitches are mid-90's fastball and a slider Oh, and can someone pull Quentin to the side and ask him if he realizes he gets to two strikes faster than anyone else in the lineup You did dig deep into the books with his last three games... Okay, he OWNS us. It just sounds like something a 14 year old would jump to conclusion and say when someone has performed well against us. But hey, I say juvenile s*** all the time so who cares anyways.

QUOTE (Real @ Aug 8, 2010 -> 02:12 PM) Jeremy Guthrie > White Sox. He's given up 4 runs total over his last 3 starts against us. Owned Are you just trying to convince yourself that he owns the Sox for the rest of our existence? He has been good against us his past three starts but its not like we cant get to this guy forever because he has wrote a book on us. There are guys that have "owned" the Sox for whatever reason but Guthrie is not in that group.

I went out drinking for the first time in a long time last Friday...Still feel hungover today. It wasnt the finer things in life for me, I must be getting really old to not be able to handle that. I had a Patron silver shot with every beer and I cant remember what I ate on Saturday morning.

QUOTE (Real @ Aug 8, 2010 -> 10:20 AM) [ He owns us. I remember last year when his ERA was in the 6's, he shut us down rather easily. If we win today, I'll be pretty shocked tbh. G GS W L SV BS HLD CG SHO IP H R ER HR BB K ERA WHIP BAA Career vs. CWS 8 6 2 3 0 0 0 0 0 39.0 38 21 19 10 16 22 4.38 1.38 .252

Konerko and Qwint In are going to have good games today. Turn and burn on Guthrie's hard fast ball.

Its funny how this Wild Card thought goes....its almost more of an accomplishment thinking about winning the Wild Card than it is to win the Central.

Big ups, pitts

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 6, 2010 -> 11:46 PM) 6/10 for "The Other Guys". Lots of funny jokes, but I was waiting for it to end the last half hour or so. I give it a 8/10 for the first half of the movie. I was laughing non stop, hard LOLZ. But the second half I found myself day dreaming not even paying attention. once it lost its steam it was pretty much over with. 3/10 in the second half. So I would probably agree with the 6/10.

QUOTE (Controlled Chaos @ Aug 6, 2010 -> 01:55 PM) ya know it all starts with hiding the websites you go to.... pretty soon you're hiding some porn on the top shelf of the closet, then some extra cash in your sock drawer, then a secret bank account, next comes a mistress, then a 2nd wife.... I do have secret stash of ice cream at an unknown location. QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Aug 6, 2010 -> 02:55 PM) The wifey and friends know about this place. Yeah but she wouldnt care to ever come read threads here.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 6, 2010 -> 01:44 PM) Ugh. Disgusting. Its really something how mankind has destroyed one another throughout history. Rodney King was somewhat of a genius.

QUOTE (G&T @ Aug 6, 2010 -> 01:12 PM) How can you be engaged to someone that hasn't figured out that you post here? I never wanted her to know. I never really post much when I am at home with her, so she never really seen evidence until she seen me on my blackberry wondering what I was doing. This is my place!

I ask this because recently I have had a strong suspicion that my fiancee has found out my dwellings around here and my old name was making it very easy. She has given clues by calling me shipps before which is possible thats just because people naturally give that as my nickname considering my last name. I just dont want her here. This is my place to talk to the guys and gals and be free to say whatever I want. Sometimes even more free than what I say to my real friends....wel actually probably not, but at least as free to speak. So if you are reading this ,Adrianne. Please leave.

After thinking about it more....hmmm, I think I might have over rated the average fans knowledge a bit . Because people who would call themselves the average fan normally dont know jack s*** about the game and its current state most of the time. LOL Lets assume the "Average fan" has a decent amount of knowledge.

QUOTE (DOWNTOWN PANTHER @ Aug 6, 2010 -> 10:00 AM) His call up was unexpected, but he really has stepped up. Numbers do not lie, and he really has answered the challenge. His SO to BB ratio was about 1-1 in WS, in Birm it is 2-1. Welcome to soxtalk.

We have had our employee reviews at work and I know a few other people that also have been doing the same thing at their jobs so it made me think of this. How do you view yourself in baseball knowledge? But really take a look at what you are bringing to the table. Soxtalk I think is a pretty good way to do that. Factor everything into account. What do you bring to baseball discussion here as opposed to what you bring to the discussion in the " real world". In the real world I can have a baseball discussion and I used to think I was a f***ing baseball professor but since I have been here it has humbled me to a point. I am really close to being just the average fan probably slightly above average. There are so many players, numbers, stats , strategy, prospects, etc. that I just dont know anything about and I can come here and people have what seems to be all the answers. Remember you can always improve just by coming here and going to many sources so dont feel bad about about ranking yourself low if thats where you are at. I just want to get to check the pulse of Soxtalk on this one.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Aug 6, 2010 -> 10:36 AM) I have to say that overall the forum admins and moderators are pretty fair here...every time (aside from once) that I've been suspended, I've felt I deserved it...though the suspension lengths seem excessive for what I considered minor infractions. I had to stop posting in the Filibuster, because I'd get suspended about once a month in there. Hey, I thought you were still on suspension.

QUOTE (jhonnydanks @ Aug 6, 2010 -> 07:35 AM) jhonny don't stop get it I like big butts and I cannot lie!........ oh wait wrong song...

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 5, 2010 -> 09:17 PM) Digging the new Black Sheep. I didn't even though these guys were still alive. Remember Dave Chappelle's skit where is has like the sheep or goat legs and is doing a rap concert. IIRC it started with the Black Sheep idea? I need to find that cause I remember it making me LMAO.
