Good time for that pitch

first sox4lifeinPA, we've got a big PA fan base

Welcome to soxtalk! So far no word, and no mention of who is up in the pen.

Usually I like hearing Strike out Sosa

I will be holding my breath

I suspect Shoe will give us 6 or 8 starts like this, maybe another 10 or 12 that will be OK and God help us on the rest

Great use of Marte. Shut this down before they got going. Worry about the 9th later. Do we leave in Marte?

Hitting 97 mph That's some heat

I was just thinking how much I was liking Politte

Interesting. My guess was that it didn't matter how the leadoff guy reaches first.

Aflak question: Before Ozzie who was the last WS player to also manage the team? I believe it was Don Kessinger

Aflak question: Before Ozzie who was the last WS player to also manage the team? I believe it was Don Kessinger Oops wrong thread

I googled and looked to find the % of leadoff walks that score and came up empty. I have to believe that someone has studied this.

Years from now, most of my memories of Frank will be him dropping the bat and trotting to first. What an eye. I remember my grandfather telling me about what a great eye Ted Williams had. Frank is the best I've ever seen.

I think KC left with our bats

Also, once you do get it off your system, find out how it got their and plug the hole.

The easiet way for the Sox to draw 3 mil is to get the Cubs to move to Puerto Rico

After listening to the opponent's feed the past three games, I finally get Hawk. Damn it feels good to be "home".

CW You are trying to debate with someone who our government has trained to believe that violence is the answer. Don't get frustrated :banghead

What is defensive about shooting 6 missels into a crowded highway? You wouldn't consider nuclear extreme?

One of the funniest moments did involve a water hazard. It was a HS dual meet and I was playing 2nd man varsity and of course we were playing their 1st and 2nd varsity players. Coming into the 8th hole we were 4 down and in trouble. Our 4th and 5th varsity players were not the best and basically that year we only won when David and I helped build a lead. Anyway this guy from the other team nails a drive leaving himself 75 yeard over a water hazard to the green. The three of us were all over the hazard and safe. Then, in order, this guy 1. Lays the turf over one and splashes. So he moves up about 40 yards to the water's edge. 2. Hits the other bank, and the balls rolls back into the water. 3. Pissed off takes a full swing and blades the ball, it skips across the water, zooms over the green, and out of bounds. 4. Walks 50 yards down the fairway muttering to himself the whole time. 5. Comes back and knocks a wedge onto the green. The whole time I am not looking at anyone, knowing I will crack up and piss my pants. I turn and see the guy throw his club at his bag. It skips off the bag and splashes into the pond. I look up at his teammate who is laughing so hard the guy falls to the ground. I bust a gut laughing, I thought I was going to die, I couldn't breath. Just as I got my breath, I look up to see the guy walk into the pond and try and find his wedge. He made 11 on the hole. Called us a bunch of assholes and walked off the course.

I need to be more carefull.

Then why cheer their deaths? Israel fires onto a crowded highway, doesn't kill their target but does kill two bystanders. Your reaction Israel4ever's reaction So again I point out your callous disregard for human life. A trait you share with the terrorists you despise. Be proud.

I agree he is a great player, a HoF player, and I have many memories of he and MJ shutting down teams with their D. I was always more impressed with the Bulls D during those runs then their offense. Pip has the longest arms I've ever seen on a court. But to say that they wouldn't have one 6 without Pip? Maybe too far. We'll never know who would have been in that slot and the mix on the team.

No, not for the terrorist, but for the two people killed because they travelled on a highway. What was their crime? Driving to work? You two have such high regard for human life. At least if you ever meet up with terrorists, you will have something in common.
