Can you believe there is a minor league?

Check out who they beat

Instead of me downloading the image from the web site I found it at, I just linked to it. So anytime someone went to view anything I posted a command would go the that website to send the image to you. That places a demand on their server and potentially slowing it down, etc. The absolutely correct thing to do is A. Ask permission to use the image from the web master B. Save it to your computer C. Upload it to here or a picture server that accepts this usage.

You could be making a lot of cd's buddy

Baines was still playing when they retired his. Just not for us.

It is almost impossible for a sports team to field a championship caliber team every year. Drafts, injuries, and luck all conspire against it. Teams have to build a fan base that will go to the games for the sake of being at the game. I watched this season as the Rio Grande Killer Bee hockey team started up on the Mexico border and almost took every local resident and taught them hockey. They are constantly in the schools giving stuff away, player promos, etc. They lost in the first round of the playoffs but sold out almost every game. Imagine, I sat in front of a guy who didn't know a Zamboni from a Zabruder. He was typical. They came for the fights but stayed for some decent at times hockey. Kids are going to games to watch the player they met yesterday play.

Memphis looked like they never played in a ployoff game before Go Spurs!

Mark = Budweiser, what else for a Mo. man? E-Lo = Sol, my favorite south of the border pale ale and means Sun. What could be better for our brightest star from last season? Garland = California Cool, need something trendy, something different, Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale Schoeneweis = A wheat beer feels right for this east coaster. Something light and well crafted perhaps staying local in Wisconsin the Hefe Weiss from Sprecher. Wright = A black and tan, something with heavy alcohol contact and mixed up. For Koch, straight shots of grain alcohol

Great points Brando Lucky for Oz he has these choices. Looking down the road, I like the up the middle defense of Olivo, Harris, Uribe, and A-Row. Add an improving Crede and Lee and we are building a nice core for the next few seasons.

I am certain it is in Israel's best interest to thumb their noses at the rest of the world.

Damn, that's going to hurt them for a couple weeks

I understand their pain. That was us this time last season. Cub fans are so much nicer when the team is struggling

I am very happy we have these three. Keep platooning them as Ozzie has been doing. Jose is a veteran and someone I want coming down the stretch. I do like Harris' speed and Uribe has certainly earned his ABs

Sounds like an urban legend

Yeah, all he did was walk around all day today

ChiSoxy, that Avatar and that quote doesn't match

Would this be a good one for a week in the mountains? I am planning my summer vacation reading.

Another ho hum sox victory, no drama. Build a lead and the bullpen shuts em down

damn camera went to the stands on that fly out. I almost crapped my pants

I have a nickname for our Bullpen The Molly Hatchet Bullpen Been flirtin' with disaster, Ya'll know what I mean. And the way we run our lives, It makes no sense to me. I don't know about yourself or, What you want to be - YEAH. When we gamble with our time, We choose our destiny. Chorus: I'm travelin' down that lonesome road. Feel like I'm dragging a heavy load. Yeah! I've tried to turn my head away, Feels about the same most every day.

So far Koch is looking great, I love those warm up tosses

40% chance he scores

Good time for that pitch

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