BTW, I don't want anyone on the bench who doesn't think they should be playing more. I just hope Ozzie doesn't agree with this.

QUOTE(Jimenez4MVP @ Jul 8, 2005 -> 05:37 PM) I hope they dont try to use him as a pinch runner.. I know that may sound crazy, but you know the NL will KNOW he is going to attempt a steal and I dont want to see him get thrown out.. The world knows he's going to steal. Yet he continues to outrun 'em. Put him in a later inning and let him run. Hell, tell the other team he's running and dare them to throw him out.

Best of luck to you out there. I assume you have a nice coleman camp stove to heat the water for your MREs? BTW, one of my favorite ways to rehydrate those meals is with a Reynolds ™ Turkey Bag. Put an inch or two of water in a pot. Put the meal and water in the turkey bag, mix well and add to pot. Boil as directed. Makes cleanup a snap.

QUOTE(RibbieRubarb @ Jul 8, 2005 -> 09:35 AM) Every game I go to I collect some hair from the best player of that game. By the end of season I will have my full-size White Sox "hair" player to keep me warm at night. LMAO, You have got to post more often.

I think bandwagon jumper is a misnomer. There are people who attend a couple games a year. They aren't Cub or Sox fans. They go to the event that seems like the most fun. The casual fan. Up until this season they went to Wrigley. For many different reasons. IMHO there are probably as many good, knowledgeable, "die hard" Cub fans as Sox fans. There are an equally similar number of obnoxious fans of both teams. Where we have lost the marketing and turnstile battle is the "do you want to see a movie?" No. Well how about a baseball game? which team is in town? Sox. What's playing at the Cineplex? Now hopefully they say, sure, sounds like fun, the place should be going crazy. Now there are some fans that will go overboard and really embrace the team. They'll be cramming to learn about Sox history, etc. Again, plenty of room. I for one would love to see this become a Sox town and push the Cubs off the front page. NY=Yankees LA=Dodgers Chi=Cubs (for now)

McCain - Lieberman McCain - Hagel Edwards - Napolitano My early wish list. Probably in that order.

The family Sutherland. Donald and Kiefer.

Already this is a special season. I wonder what y'all are doing, if anything, to preserve some memories. I'm hearing some saved games, newspapers, etc.

BTW, do I get partial credit for a post of the month?

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Jul 8, 2005 -> 08:18 AM) Thanks for the info. For a second I thought it might be you, and I was thrown for a loop as it's nothing like what I pictured. I have no idea what I picture, but it isn't that. Or Connie Chung. I always loved Connie though. I look more like the picture in my profile.

Actually some businesses and individuals run an "open connection" on purpose. Kind of a commune approach. It will be interesting to see how this is handled in court.

QUOTE(Steff @ Jul 8, 2005 -> 08:24 AM) And "wireless" also.. Good grief. done and done

What is really morbid is many, many, people here are hoping for a hurricane to fill our reservoirs. We are still in drought conditions which stresses our citrus and table crops.
