QUOTE (kyyle23 @ Jun 2, 2009 -> 06:43 PM) Assuming Cali accepts you as a citizen. You are Shipps, after all

As a kid I once tried to sell a signed Don Paul baseball card to the Grandstand so I could go buy a taco but they wouldnt buy it. I bought it from them the day before.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jun 2, 2009 -> 06:05 PM) 75 degrees gets SO boring, though... As soon as I move there Cali will probably break off into the ocean

I think its a pretty cool idea that cant hurt doing it. Ed Sherman might be the most ugly human being ever created by God.

QUOTE (GO CHI SOX! @ Jun 2, 2009 -> 05:40 PM) Obviously we would sign him in September when rosters expand and we could stretch out the finale of his career in a 30 day tribute. Who knows, he may play great and we make the playoffs and forces himself onto the team. Welcome aboard! Good post cause I could actually see that happening.

It is officially June and we have this s*** weather. I am destined for California and I am getting closer by the day to taking that plunge.

To keep with my soxtalk tradition I have a new avatar thanks to the f***ing awesome sir knightni. and Comedy Central.

I am frustrated with fans that are frustrated all the time.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jun 2, 2009 -> 02:06 PM) Kyle isnt it fun to start a lot of game threads in a row? I got to like 9 in a row once, which means they won 8. Didn't feel like enough. And shipps sucks I understand comments like this with you being a fellow commie of kyyle and all.

Dan Pasqua had a swing to die for...

QUOTE (kyyle23 @ Jun 2, 2009 -> 01:09 PM) Sun is out in elgin. Shipps calls for hail also a mild chance of an earthquake...and for the first time the Aurora Borealis will be visible in Chicago....balta will provide details on the percentages later on.

QUOTE (Jimbo's Drinker @ Jun 2, 2009 -> 12:04 PM) No I said yesterday would get in. Today looks ugh you did? I stand corrected and lets hope you arent a good weatherman because I would like to see some baseball tonight.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 2, 2009 -> 11:33 AM) I'd love to see a one day contract signed, complete with a big retirement ceremony, rocking chair, #35 retirement etc. It would be awesome. Beyond that, no thanks. that is all the Sox are talking about doing. I dont know where everyone is getting Frank being an active player on the roster. That is a joke.

So now that thread is back open, hows about some good ol' cockfight bets...

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jun 2, 2009 -> 10:46 AM) Wow, those are two awesome things you dont like there. A titan of Comedy and an all time great rock band. yeah I never understand when people say they hate Ferrell. Sometimes he just says one word and I wanna pee my pants with laughing so hard. But there seem to be alot of people that hate him and think he is the complete opposite of funny.

They didnt mean that they would have him play. KW said to have him on just so he can retire a whitesox.

QUOTE (Jimbo's Drinker @ Jun 2, 2009 -> 10:36 AM) I believe this game will be cancelled. Didnt you say that yesterday too when there was a forecast for alot more rain than today?lol cmon jimbo have a glass of optimism and you will be fine.

There are a couple others here who need to eat some crow on Floyd but will most likely never admit it. Because they still will say he sucks unless he wins 20 with a sub 3 ERA.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 2, 2009 -> 10:16 AM) What if instead of going after a pitcher, KW is trying to acquire a dynamic young outfielder, and will go after Pence with a package of Poreda, Flowers, etc? That is what I was thinking. He was rumored to trying to trade Garland for him before iirc.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 2, 2009 -> 10:15 AM) It's a long running joke about how he will give superlatives to any African-American player. He even said Sheffield was the best clubhouse man in baseball a few years ago. I dont think he is racist.I think he just makes outlandish bulls*** statements and enjoys doing it. Ala "this Whitesox pen is the greatest assembled pen ever".

QUOTE (kyyle23 @ Jun 2, 2009 -> 10:04 AM) any amateur weatherman know what we should expect tonite? flurries

He has had three errors all year and you guys are exaggerating his range to his right. At second base going to his right would be exploited just as much if not more. Atleast at short he snags a ton of what would be base hits up the middle.

Ozzie is VERY vocal on Ramirez being our shortstop for the future. Which he has been playing stellar at so far this year I might add.

Dont get your hopes up guys. I HIGHLY doubt it is going to come back.
