I am assuming Caterpillar wanted some oversight to be certain it was his hair that was tested.

Wow. That's pitching and great defense.

The debate seems to revolve around how much "help" an athlete or particapant should receive from their equipment. A bat seems to be ok with everybody as is a hockey stick. Now tennis raquets and golf clubs are able to store energy via face deflection or by the tension in their strings and that seems to be ok. Bicycles offer gearing which helps the cyclist. Almost every sport invloves gear, except for barefoot Kenyan distance runners. I don't see a problem with the gear has power.

I have an acronym for next Hockey season Not A Season, Can't Allocate Revenue

We can score plenty of runs, against righties and lefties so I wouldn't be as concerned as having our 5th starter combine for exactly ZERO wins, and IIRC ZERO quality starts. Same issue we had last year. Same issue we had to start the season, and sadly probably the same issue we'll have in the playoffs.

I thought he was talking about the uniform I always pitchered it as that casual toss over to first where the 1st baseman just kind of stands there and plays catch with the pitcher. As opposed to a did we get him, slide back into first.

Hockey is ok, but it doesn't match the high speed racing thrills of oh hell, Go Flames! You will be able to carry around the Cup for two years.

It would also have been "culturally weird" for him to be the Son of God. Nice way to sell those last 200,000 copies in the warehouse.

The rest, of the story If this was Joe Average Citizen's kid we would not be reading about it. Is it really worth covering?

A split would be a split, and a very nice result. I really wish we didn't pound out 15 runs yesterday, it seems like it always takes a team 2 or 3 games to recover and score more than 2.

Seems there was a door to door salesman of specialty toilet seats who developed a toilet seat that played the Star Spangled Banner when ever someone sat down. Sales were very good and it seemed that everyone loved the seat. One day he arrived at Nuke_Cleveland's house and sold him one of these toilet seats. About a week later he gets a call from a very pissed off Nuke who wants to return the toilet seat. Nuke starts complaining that he is constipated and hasn't taken a crap since the toilet seat was installed. The salesman cannot understand how a toilet seat would cause Nuke to be so constipated and asked him why. Nuke replied "every time I sit down I hear the start of the Star Spangled Banner so I stand up and salute"

I know first time pitchers usually shot us out, but do first time batters also crush us? I need something else to keep me awake at night.

Couple interesting tidbits you missed Haliburton will be catering the event for US$6,200,000 Bush will be signed in for every event. Saddam will be on display along with a Bin Laden look alike contest, highlighting why it is so difficult to find him and arrest him.

Buiried at the end of lastnight's game coverage. Sun Times

Even easier in Texas. BTW, Mexico bans firearms. Get cought, go to jail for a long time. For my Illinois FOID I took the scariest picture imaginable and sent it in. Remember the crazed hunter character that Johnny Carson did? The wide open eyes, flannel shirt, etc? I dressed like that, looked like Manson, and received my card in 2 weeks.

so maneuvering a bat, stick, football, etc. makes it a sport, but not manuevering a horse? Seems like working with a living breathing animal takes more effort. I know the effort involved in controlling a horse.

This is joeynach's first post on Soxtalk. He's going to fit right in I think. The post was in Photo Album and How Does That Work? Hot Chicks Thread still lives on

Did you go to the Soxtalk store and get the magic decoder ring for the really hot photos? Click on the store link just below the banner.

I watched and could tell what they were doing, it was all a blurr. I did have fun listening to the scanner and the communication between the driver and crew. To those that claim NASCAR isn't a sport, how about Horse Racing? Is the jockey an athlete?
