I always seem to have a couple extra when the team is winning. It's more of a party.

I was going to start a poll, but couldn't think of who to nominate besides Steff. Who is the best here at sarcastic, well placed, barbs? I happen to enjoy them, even when they are aimed at me. Come to think of it, Nuke isn't half bad either. And IIRC PA shoots a few good ones.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Jul 19, 2005 -> 09:56 AM) Hell. I wouldn't miss Steff's well placed barbs for the world. Even if I am the occasional recipient. ditto. Plus it's just one screen name to another. Being a grandma from outside Toronto when y'all think I'm from Texas makes that easier.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 07:45 AM) The DOWNSIDE of being 12 games up??? Are you kidding me??? THIS IS THE BEST TEAM THE SOUTHSIDE HAS EVER SEEN AT THIS STAGE OF A SEASON. THERE IS NO DOWNSIDE!!!! Quit waiting for the skies to fall and enjoy it!!! What is wrong with people? The Chicago White Sox have been in exsistance for 105 years and have NEVER been better, and people are perpetually stress about what is WRONG with this team. You are missing the boat on this one. :headshake That is such a Cub fan attitude, don't worry, be happy.

After reading the fake perfum warning, I thought Soxtalk should start our own urban legend. With all our posters and everyone in our address books we could get one strated in a heartbeat.

Now when Bush invites me, I got this really cool pair of western boots that I'll be wearing. Steel toes, a little cow pie still stuck to them. Make George feel right at home.

I love 4 to 5 foot waves. Great on a boogie board out at the island. The only wave I like is between innings as people head to the concession stands. Or the wave when you think you recognize someone but it isn't them and you are standing there like a dumbass trying to fake waving at someone else.

I'm comfortable taking this *team* into the playoffs. We will not match up player by player with the Yankees or Red Sox. A-Rod v. Crede? Jeter or Uribe? It will be a team effort and this group of players have so far demonstrated teamwork. I also see some guys in AAA that will give a boost down the stretch and allow starters to rest and to get the starting rotation set. The key will be to arrive in the playoffs healthy and rested.

Does anyone in Oklahoma City care about Cardinals - Cubs? Twins - Sox? I will say this in ESPNs defense, Red Sox - Yankees draw the viewers. They have the biggest payrolls and the biggest rivalry. They have rosters filled with All-Stars and household names. For the casual fan they are trying to attract to the telecast, it's an easy call. I don't like it, but it's the fact. Look at history. Where have the World Series winners been from? Let's go back 15 years for the Central Division of the AL and NL. 1990 Reds won 1991 Minny won 1995 Cleveland got nuked 1997 Cleveland got nuked 2004 Cards got swept East Coast teams: 17 Appearances - 11 Wins West Coast: 8 Appearances - 2 Wins Central Teams: 5 Appearances - 2 Wins Now can you see why any nationaly televised show would spend more time on East Coast teams? Plus this season, it's about the only races out there. Cards and Sox have just about wrapped up their division. The Angles shouldn't have a problem. It's basically the East Coast teams battling.

Gardy must be bored way back there. Wanted to leave the game early.

It didn't even wake me up last night. Now it appears we will have a ten day rain.

Maybe they thought Clinton was still President and they wanted to wear something they could kick off quickly

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Jul 19, 2005 -> 01:41 PM) So is this gonna be like West Side Story? Are we gonna fight WSI at some point during the game? Should I bring my brass knuckles? Beating up old men in Depends is sooooo not cool Depending on who they are playing, count me in.

beauty is in the eye of the beholder

Boooooooooooring

QUOTE(YASNY @ Jul 19, 2005 -> 02:19 PM) Texsox, to be honest, I'm too damn lazy to research it... so I withdraw my remarks. I wasn't necessarily challenging you on that, I was interested in what Greenpeace may be up to currently. I haven't followed them much. I've always thought of them as a more mainstream, "normal" group like Sierra Club. I tried googling Greenpeace and violent, law breaking, etc and didn't come up with much besides their usual trespassing.
