I guess the old man should jump in and defend another old guy. Ozzy is an entertainer, always has been. He is still entertaining the best way he can. If it's whoring now, it was whoring then. Why we expect artists to starve for their art, and businessmen to prosper, is beyond my comprehension. He isn't going to offer the same act from 30+ years ago, or else everyone will call him a washed up has been that doesn't know when to quit. Instead he reinvented himself and again is offering entertainment to people who eat it up. Perhaps some people think he should just disappear, but he has a lot of years left and if wants to remain an entertainer, I say go for it.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Dec 8, 2008 -> 12:00 PM) This seems like a deal that's been discussed at length and is or was very close to being done, but a number of things came up, especially the salary situations, and that this deal is at a point where it can still get done but it's not so far along that something has to come out of it. I wouldn't be surprised in the least if this rumors does just blow away in the wind. I will say that David Weathers, who Dick brought up a while earlier, is interesting in this all. The Sox generally never give cash in a deal, but they will take on contracts. I'm personally wondering if there isn't a possibility of this turning into a 5 player deal with the Sox dealing Dye and another player for Bailey, Weathers, and another. We'll just have to see how this plays out within the next week. And with each passing day and each added player, it seems less and less likely to get done.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 8, 2008 -> 11:18 AM) The one thing that could be interesting is that the sale of the Cubs would have to be negotiated and approved by a bankruptcy court if this was to happen. It makes their sale a potential nightmare for the buyers. Or not. Sometimes the sales go easier without someone so closely tied to the organization. But I believe you are probably correct.

I'll have to think of it further, but I would not count on field success as much as some of the intangibles. For example Al Davis and the current Raiders franchise. It is a disgrace the way they act. The Cubs have put a decent product on the field with some very class athletes. I'd call the Pistons a terrible franchise back in the 80s and early 90s even though they won a few championships.

What an amazing talent and class act. I'm glad to see him finish ahead of Clemens on the win list. And unlike Rocket, I do not see Maddux deciding to "unretire" to pitch a couple months at the end of the season.

Maybe it would be by selected forums

It's a shame they can't put a breathalyzer on a keyboard and lock out drunks from posting.

QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Dec 6, 2008 -> 11:59 PM) Things change so much over time. Buzz used to be Brandmeyer's sidekick/newsguy/harp player way back in the day. IIRC Buzz took over for Meier in the news when Meier became Steve's full time sidekick. He later went to Johnny B's show. Prior to that Dahl did all these voices and stuff. Meier originally overlapped for about 15 minutes from the overnights.

Happy Birthday!!

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Dec 5, 2008 -> 09:59 AM) I saw a thread on here a while ago about this but I cant find it. I know there are websites where you can take clips of songs and have them sent to your phone. I know some require subscriptions and some are free. Does anyone have any recommendations for good sites, preferably free? I just got a new phone so i need to spice it up a lil bit haha Before you go down that path, are you certain you can't connect your ohone directly to your computer and download them from your computer? Even some pretty basic phones have that capability.
