  1. The Cubs have had players and coaches ejected, players and coaches throwing laughable tantrums, and players, coaches, and fans all throwing absurd amounts of garbage all over Wrigley Field for the past two days, and somehow Mariotti "forgets" to write about that, lol.  Coinicence?

    So he writes about the Cuns we b**** he's not writing about the 1st place Sox. He writes about the Sox and we b**** he isn;t writing about the Cubs.

     

    Frank is one of the biggest super stars in Chicago, he's going to get press.

  2. Honest question.  Do you think ANYONE in the Sox organization, read this article and ever gave it a second thought?  No way.  This is garbage, and all of his teammates know it.  At worst they made fun of Frank for this.  At best they never thought about it again .

    Almost every player read it. I've known too many athletes to think they don't reaad the papers to see what is being written. It would take super human strength not to.

     

    If your company was in the news, would you read it?

  3. Exactly.  With a million things he could have wrote about this team..IE Harris's early success, Uribe's early success, Maggs contract statement with his bat, Scho showing he is a real starter, Ozzies early affect on this team etc.  He goes and finds the first big negative occurance he can, and dedicates his whole Sunday column to it.  He might be right, but he has zero credibility.  Espesially to talk about someone's whiney personality, as this guys whole career has been made from b****ing about Professional Athletes.

     

    :fyou Kotex Boy.

    Look at these boards and count up the replies and you'll see what is the hot button among Sox fans right now. Hint: It isn't our middle infielders.

    Thomas opens his yap again has 156 replies and 1,445 views. Koch and Danny have the next two active topics. What writer wouldn't write about what is on Sox fans minds?

     

    Mariotti would be an idiot if he didn't write about Frank this Sunday. We have the hottest team and Franky isn't contributing his usual numbers on the field and now he's creating a distraction in the locker room.

  4. Lets trade Koch and Marte for Eric Gange

    KW: I have a trade idea. Koch and Marte for Eric, what do you think?

    DePodesta: :lolhitting :lolhitting :lolhitting :lolhitting :lolhitting

    DePodesta: Really, what are you thinking?

    KW: I'm serious. Koch and Marte for Gagne

    DePodesta: Read my bio, I went to Harvard.

    I stumbled across this movie soundtrack and was wodnering if anyone saw the movie? From the soundtrack, it must have been a real "feel good" movie :D

  6. Wow, Hammerhead, that's a nice collection of boots.  I'm not even familiar with half those titles, I've been less active in pursuing them since vinyl went the way of the 8-track tape.

     

    I just shelled out a chunk of change on some Zappa and Rundgren boots and got to scolding myself because I've not pursued the Beatles stuff much of late.  Then again, you're right - a lot of the same takes show up on 20 or 30 different titles.

    I love Rundgren's career. It really seems like he figured out how to make gobs and gibs of money and still be himself.

    I Hate My Frickin I.S.P lyrics

     

    The reason that I signed up

    Is the reason that I hate it

    I know she's made her mind up

    I just don't know how she's made it

     

    And my dial-up screen has locked me

    Into a touch tone tune monotony

    Because some snot-nosed pube has blocked me out

    And I wait

    And I wait

     

    And I hate my frickin ISP

    He ain't got go bandwidth left for me

    And I'll never get back

    Never get back the time that I waste

    That's what I hate

     

    My job's so hard to swallow

    But it's got me by the collar

    In some Motel 6 squalor

    Where every local call's a dollar

     

    I got no time left to jack off

    I got a deadline that won't back off

    I'm about to chew my own leg off

    Cause it's so late

    And I'm late

     

    And I hate my frickin ISP

    I get bumped for inactivity

    And I'll never get back

    Never get back the time that I waste

    That's what I hate

     

    It rained CD roms that gave me

    Twenty hours free

    I let my service provider

    Make a junky outta me

    And then he cut me off

    From my online community

    And now I hate, I hate it

    I hate I hate I hate I hate

     

    I hate my frickin ISP

    His domain name lookup takes eternity

    etc...

     

    Na na na na na

     

    Talking about speaking to the common man . . . :lolhitting

  7. Maggs hits a walk off home run from the 3 spot and Frank's contract is wrong. Both on the same day. Coincidence?

     

    If Frank had the PR skills of MJ, the world would be at his feet. He is the hardest working power hitter in baseball. He is doing it, at his age, by staying in amazing shape.

     

    But, somebody please duct tape his mouth. He's not even Charles Barkley funny with this s***.

     

    Frank could have signed a one or two year deal and then been free to renegotiate. You want the extra years, live with the extra years.

     

    This is Maggs team. Maybe we need a group of players to have an intervention and tell Frank to just shut up, get to the playoffs, maybe get one hit this time (Mr. 0 for the 2000 playoffs), and finish a HoF career.

     

    I think the main reason we dislike Jay is he is usually pretty damn accurate regarding the Sox. Sometimes that isn't pretty. I also appreciate when Jay is positive about someone or something, he really beieves it.

  8. WASHINGTON, April 16 (Reuters) - U.S. radio broadcasters have asked federal regulators to bar rival satellite radio services from offering content tailored to local markets, according to a petition obtained on Friday.

     

    The National Association of Broadcasters, which represents radio conglomerates like Clear Channel Communications Inc. , filed the request due to concerns the up and coming satellite services are trying to replace local radio outlets.

     

    Both XM Satellite Radio and Sirius Satellite Radio Inc. now offer traffic and weather for several cities on its national service, but are barred from using ground-based transmitters that extend service into hard-to-reach areas to air programming aimed specifically at a local market.

    Whose got satellite radio?

    GOOD MORNING, TEX!  Beautiful day here in Texas, isn't it?

     

    /resume

    Yes it is.

     

    I am thinking for my birthday I am going to head up for the Ranger v. Sox games in September. I would come up for the July games but I will be taking off the prior week for a week in the mountains with my 30 boys.

     

    I wish there was a couple weekend games. Majkes things easier coming up from the valley.

  10. They "hide" amongst Israelis when they are trying to blow them up!

    If Israel shouldn't care about innocents, should they fire a missle down King David Street in Jerusalem if a Hamas leader was staying at the Hilton?

     

    Israel was born by many of the world's countries. Sadly, it could be destroyed just as easily. No one can withstand the onslaught of the entire world. Like it or not, if the world leaves Israel to its own, it will not last.

     

    Using your number that 70% of Palistinians want Israel destroyed, has that number gone up or down when the Israeli helicopters come into the neighborhood to take out a Hamas leader and anyone else who may have been in the way? Just like the suicide bombers build resolve in the Israeli population, and fuel hatred towards Palestinians, so does the assasinations by Israel. Peace comes when no one wants the other side harmed. Escalation does not move us closer to that goal.

  11. I thought 10 was the max score u could hav for a hole. Comes in handy for me on the par 5's.  ;)  :lol:

    That is used in casual play to speed things up. In tournaments, it's keep hitting until you hole it out.

  12. They purposely "hide" amongst (and behind) their own people!

     

    Don't think for a minute that Israel wouldn't have preferred to kill Rantisi by himself.

    Keep chanting kill kill kill

    That is the only thing you understand.

    kill kill kill

    That's going to work.

     

    But they never hide around Israeli's.

  13. Many polls have shown that the majority of Palestinians want Israel eliminated.

     

    Their mantra, "Palestine-From the River to the Sea".

     

    Please check out the articles/websites I posted under the heading "Bush Finally Gets One Right"...these were posted before Rantisi got wasted.

    US + Israel vs. the rest of the world.

    Brilliant strategy.

     

    Just keep chanting kill kill kill. After hundreds of thousands of people are dead keep chanting kill kill kill. You want every Pali killed, your no better than they are. No respect for human life. Judging everyone by the acts of a few self apointed leaders.

     

    So you are telling me that the Hamas leaders are never near any Israeli's.

  14. No matter what Israel does, it gets criticized by the rest of the world!

     

    There comes a time when you can't care about world opinion, and you do what you have to do to protect your own people.

    And when the world turns their back and stops sending money, what does Israel do? Look past your blood thirst.

  15. Why should I feel sorry for the deaths of two people who would like to see me dead, solely because I am a Jew?

     

    I don't sympathize with dead Nazis either!

    So everyone on that highway wants you dead? Amazing.

  16. Oh, so if I just copy the URL, am I doing what you did? Should I save it on my computer instead?
