A couple seasons ago, I thought Kenny should be shown the door. Now he is easily the front runner for executive of the year. Who was the last White Sox Manager to be named Manager of the Year? Oh yeah, the guy that sucked What that tells me is it's all about the players. Trades work out sometimes and other times they don't. I don't think the GM should get more than 25% of the credit. Most trades are at least close, there are very few that are lopsided from the start. It's up to the players to perform.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Jul 11, 2005 -> 07:19 PM) I recommended the Buzz Bissinger book for August, but I went to put it on hold at the library, and I came to the conclusion that we might wanna choose a different book. Not only was I like 15th on the waiting list, but I think it's only available in hardback. That means like $20+ for you college kids out there. That's not chump change... Should we change it? I'd like to recommend I am Legend by Richard Matheson. I absolutely hated this genre (Gothic, Vampire, Horror) until I was forced to read this book. It is one of the top 10 books I've ever read. And can be finished in one long night.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Jul 11, 2005 -> 07:03 PM) I was gonna ask that question. I was like am I supposed to read this backwards, lol. I'm assuming its just a countdown to the last page or something. I know one thing, I could tell someone else I'm on page 289 and they'll be impressed I read that many pages. Little do they know it would actually be like page 1 This is how observant I am, I noticed in when I was on page 5

My favorite t-shirt that I bought and never found a place to wear it was up in Green Bay at a little tavern. It was the late 70's or early 80's and Lynn Dickey was the Packer QB. Front: If you want to beat our Pack Back: You have to lick our Dickey Even as a die hard Bear fan I had to love that one. Problem was I had about no places to ever wear that shirt.

After Frank was passed over a couple years ago both by the Manager and then by the fans I swore I would never pay attention to the AS game again. I did vote early and often for Pods, but truly felt I was wasting my time. Thank you Francona.

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ Jul 11, 2005 -> 06:46 PM) Remember when Ross Perot was pining for a 50 cent increase in the federal gas tax? I wonder how well that would have gone over today. He would have asked for $1.00 today.

Pat Green Some people say: "Man, I bet she still makes love like an earthquake." Yeah, but man she ain’t easy: she ain’t letting you in my friend, my friend. Its time to wake up baby doll: put your best dress an' your high heals on, An' dream you're gone. Don't know why all of a sudden those lyrics were running in my head.

Interesting that Kerry feels he can use Roe v. Wade as a litmus test but the GOPernauts can not. :headshake Stuff like that is just so wrong. Like dj, I'll wait for the nominee before making a judgment. I will also look more at actual decisions than answers on personal beliefs. I believe that Judges are able to set aside personal beliefs and interpret the law. I also trust our constitution and hope that the GOP and Dem avail themselves of all tools before a Judge is sworn in. A good hard look at the candidate and a proper review through the system is important.

$2.19 Keep in mind that we are paying a huge amount of tax on the gas. It's the ultimate user tax. http://www.gaspricewatch.com/usgastaxes.asp In Illinois you are paying $0.184 Federal $0.19 State Plus any city or county taxes added.

QUOTE(ChiSoxyGirl @ Jul 9, 2005 -> 06:04 PM) I have it, I need to be meaner. But, I did get to Polka with an 80 year old at the Ukrainian fest! Top that! Now he can die, he has climbed the mountain and seen the promised land.

And he got her while living in Milwaukee!? How the hell did he do that? Milwaukee?!

Tis the season. Gives Kenny something to talk about at the Al-Star game. Note to Kenny: Be really certain of the names.

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ Jul 9, 2005 -> 05:21 AM) Guiliani - McCain would be my dream ticket. They'd win by no less than 15% McCain isn't playing for second place or he would be the current VP and Kerry would be in the White House. Guiliani isn't going to win the nomination and IMHO isn't even a top 5 GOP potential. His star has faded and there will be too much War on Terror hangover. People will want to get past 9/11 not wallow in it.

I was driving by the University and a small sign tucked in among other signs caught my eyes. Chicago Dogs Perfect Chicago style dogs. They don't ask if I want mayonnaise (!) or ketchup. The guy that owns the place is from Chicago. His main cook is a Cub fan and they have way to much customer donated Cub stuff, but the dogs are great.

TRADE THREAD III is open for business. If it's a new proposal, please take it there.
