Hopefully this will recognize the posters who excell in quality instead of quantity like most of us to get different recognitions. Right now post totals has been the only judge. Cheat, Could you also design a nomination trophy for the runners up?

If we are willing to accept this method, then we must be willing to accept the other side doing it to our guys. I'm not certain I can accept that. I would be outraged to learn that an Iraqi interogator decided to fake shooting one of our guys to make him talk about future US military plans.

I try to look at the basis before attacking an opinion. Most of the time when people disagree, they are working from two sets of "facts".

I agree, but the minor leagues are becoming less and less fruitfull for the team that drafts them. By the time you home grow a pitcher and he's on your 25 man roster, the money issue kicks in and adios. How many picks out of your first 10 round picks would you package for a; Maggs? I'd give you all of them Lee? at least 6 Buerhle? at least 8 I'm too old to get excited about draft picks.

MANILA, Philippines -- A jealous wife cut off her sleeping husband's penis after finding a text message from another women on his mobile phone, a newspaper reported Friday. Antonio Llanesiras, 30, was being treated at the Pasay City General Hospital. Surgeons there saw little chance of reattaching the plumber's severed organ, which was brought in by the wife carefully wrapped in a piece of cloth, according to the Manila Standard. It wasn't immediately clear if charges will be filed against the woman. ------------------------------------------------ As guy slowly wakes up hmm she's grabbing my shorts she's grabbing my penis!! she's walking away with my penis

Sometime late tonight or early tomorrow the nominations thread will be locked and the secret nominating committee will wade through the thread and decide three finalists for each of the awards. Polls will open on Wednesday at the latest. This is Chicago, so vote early and often. Register all your dead relatives. It seems we will have a special award for your sig.

We should have interviewed this guy for the manager's spot.

Oh great, more prospects. 1 out of 20 may make the big league squad by 2008. Don't stop thinking about tomorrow

f*** you. I only read every one of your posts so I can seem smarter.

LOL, I'm picture guys in NY reacting to a Jay Mariotti column. Could Ozzie want Frank traded? I think it's possible especially if OZ is correct that he tried several times to reach Frank and Frank will not return calls. Dumping the rest of the team? I Would love to see a Lee for Bonds trade? Not going to happen, but does that mean I want Lee traded? No. Quit putting words in Ozzies mouth. For the right deal, anyone is expendable.

It was a group of Texans from Fort Hood that found him hiding in a 6 foot by 8 foot spider hole. Hey saddam, nice beard jackass.

hmm, Am I reading that Frank as a bad clubhouse guy is whispered around baseball?

I thought it would interesting to gauge the mood in December and compare it to January, February, March, and April. I am guessing a decent free agent signing would move us up, a stupid trade would bump us down.

From an old guys perspective, the division was ours for the winning. Prospects suck. I've been watching Sox prospects for 30+ years. Win when you have the chance, and the chance last year was as good as it got. How many people on this board where alive the last time the Sox won a pennant? not me and I'm old . . .

Positive spin. I haven't heard JR or KW say they had to drop the payroll to $59 million perhaps, I'm hoping, they won't dump Jose, Lee, or someone else with the goal of reducing payroll. If they keep trying to improve the club, and we wind up with our current cast of players, it will be a tought season but not as bad as it would be after a Lee for prospects type trade.

Ozzie passed baseball 101. Now let's see if he has the b*lls to follow through after meeting with Frank. IMHO baseball 201 would have had Frank in the #6 hole last season. Flip flopping him with Maggs is a start.

Oh, you want the Greatest lyrics ever There's a bar, in a western bay, and it serves, a hundred ships a day. Lonely sailers, pass the time away, thinkin' about their homes . . . Those great lyrics

beastlt, you're gonna have some competition from BeGood and maybe PA. I definately think you'll be nominated for one of the top 3 spots.

The more I look over the list the more pissed I get at Kong and Koch. Show me the results ~ You got the money!

PA, If we ever find ourselves in the same bar, you can't go near the jukebox. How do you servive in Texas? Pat Green

Who did you steal it from?

I'm starting to have some empathy for KW

Not a baseball but during a Wolves pregame skate around my son and I were in the first row in a corner. My son was standing with his elbows on the boards below the glass when Rierdon was skating with a puck right at him (he was 6 or 7 at the time). I started to pull Brian as Reirdon wound up for a slap shot. At the last moment Reirdon scooped up the puck with his stick and dropped it over the glass Made me an instant fan of the team and Reirdon. I'm not certain if I spelled his name correctly. Last I heard he had a few years in the NHL and is now playing for a team in Ohio.

I think it was all a Hollywood'esque show and Kennedy is alive and well living in disguise with Marilyn Monroe

I'm saying die hards. What you see going to Wrigley are a lot of baseball fans who would support the Sox as well. Only a small minority really believe the f*** the cubs or f*** the sox stuff. We are passionate and view the world from that perspective. Many of the Cub fans are not die hards and refuse to go to a Sox game or cheer on a Sox team. How many of those people sitting at Wrigley sat at a Sox game in 2000?
