As I said there is no way we should expect E-Lo to maintain last year's pace.

In a stunning bit of irony, he would find the shrimp farm closed

Under 100 pitches. I wouldn't even have Marte up and throwing. I would send Koch out to pick up some pizzas for a post game party. Ooops they are in Florida, send Koch to pick up some boiled shrimp for the party.

I love watching a catcher pick em up and put them down. 7 for 9 hits for extra bases

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.

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?

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.

I am going to have to rent the dvd.

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

I'd like to know the 20 he used . . .

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

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.

Link Whose got satellite radio?

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.

I know it's early in the year but so far I am liking this year's mix. I think we are building a solid core for future seasons.

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.

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

And why can't they support themselves?

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.

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.

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

So everyone on that highway wants you dead? Amazing.

Listen closely to your son. Try to hear past the "adult speak" where he is repeating things he hears from mom.
